Steps:
- Combine the light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, and white pepper in a small bowl. Stir to mix well.
- Add the butter into a large nonstick skillet and heat over medium-high heat until melted. Add the eggs. Cook until the bottom is slightly set. Scramble until the eggs are mostly cooked.
- Add the rice onto the egg. Cook and chop the rice with your spatula, to separate the grains and coat the rice with egg. Cook until the heat builds up and you can hear a vibrant sizzling.
- Swirl in the soy sauce mixture. Cook and stir constantly, until the rice turns an even color.
- Add the green onion and stir to mix well.
- Carefully taste the rice. Season lightly with sea salt if needed. Stir and mix thoroughly, so the salt is evenly dispersed.
- Transfer the rice to a bowl and serve hot as a side or a light main dish.

Tips:
- Choosing the Right Rice: For the best results, use day-old rice. Freshly cooked rice will be too moist and sticky for fried rice.
- Using a Wok or Large Pan: A well-seasoned wok or large pan with high sides will help ensure that the rice is evenly cooked and doesn't stick.
- Heating the Oil: Make sure the oil is shimmering before adding the rice. This will help prevent the rice from sticking to the pan.
- Stirring Regularly: Stir the rice frequently while cooking to prevent it from clumping and to ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Using Sweet Soy Sauce: Sweet soy sauce adds a unique flavor to this dish. If you don't have any on hand, you can substitute a mixture of soy sauce and brown sugar.
- Adding Vegetables and Protein: Feel free to add your favorite vegetables and protein to this dish. Some popular options include carrots, peas, bell peppers, chicken, shrimp, and tofu.
- Serving Suggestions: Serve fried rice with a side of vegetables, egg rolls, or spring rolls. You can also top it with a fried egg for an extra boost of protein.
Conclusion:
Fried rice with sweet soy sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
