Ingredients

4 eggs
8 slices bacon, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1 bunch scallion, sliced thinly separate white and green
8 cups cooked jasmine rice, day old
1 tablespoon naturally brewed soy sauce
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
canola oil (for cooking)

Directions

1

In a medium bowl, whisk eggs together until well-combined.
2

In a large saute pan over high heat coated with 1/4-inch of oil, gently lower the eggs in and season.
3

Eggs will puff up and cook through very quickly; transfer eggs and oil to a paper towel-lined plate.
4

In the same pan, cook the bacon. When bacon is almost fully cooked, add the garlic, ginger and scallion whites and stir-fry for 1 minute, until softened and fragrant.
5

Add the rice, naturally brewed soy sauce and eggs and stir to heat through and break up the eggs.
6

Check for flavor and season if necessary.
7

Toss in the cilantro and scallions greens and serve.
