Ingredients

  • 2.5 tbsp Chinese cooking wine
  • 1.5 tbsp oyster sauce (Lee Kum Kee Premium)
  • 4 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 3/4 tsp sesame oil
  • 1/4 tsp white pepper
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 180g chicken breast, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

  • 1 small carrot, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup corn
  • 1/2 cup peas
  • 2 cups cooked white rice (day-old, chilled)
  • 3/4 cup green onions, sliced (whites and greens separated)


Instructions

  1. Combine all sauce ingredients (Chinese cooking wine, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, white pepper, ground ginger) in a small bowl and stir well.
  2. Prep all ingredients: mince garlic, dice onion and carrot, slice green onions, cut chicken and beef into 1/2-inch pieces.
  3. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok/skillet over medium-high heat. Crack in eggs and scramble until cooked through (2-3 minutes). Transfer to a plate.

  6. Add carrot, corn, and peas; stir-fry 1 minute until vegetables are slightly tender.
  7. Add rice and pour in sauce. Toss constantly for 1.5 minutes to coat rice evenly.
  8. Add cooked eggs and white parts of green onions; toss 30 seconds to combine. Garnish with green parts of green onions and serve immediately.
