Golden Fried Rice With Salmon and Furikake image

Chef Lucas Sin of Junzi taught us this technique for fried rice in which every single grain is coated in egg yolk and fries up perfectly distinct and chewy. Sin uses the method as a blank canvas for mixing in ingredients and flavors ranging from spicy shredded pollo adobado to ketchup.

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large eggs
4 cups chilled cooked short-grain white rice
5 Tbsp. vegetable oil, divided, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt
1 (12-oz.) skinless, boneless salmon fillet, cut into (1") pieces
1 (1") piece ginger, peeled, finely chopped
½ small onion, finely chopped
1 tsp. sugar
4 scallions, white and pale green parts finely chopped, dark green parts thinly sliced, separated
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Furikake (for serving)

Steps:

  • Separate egg yolks from whites, placing yolks in a medium bowl and whites in a small bowl. Add rice to bowl with yolks and mix to break up any clumps and coat each grain with yolks (take your time with this as any clumps will cook together); set aside. Stir 2 Tbsp. oil into egg whites and season lightly with salt.
  • Heat a dry large nonstick skillet over high. Add egg white mixture and cook, pushing around constantly with chopsticks or a heatproof rubber spatula, until gently set, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out skillet if needed.
  • Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in same skillet over medium-high. Season fish with salt and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown underneath, about 2 minutes. Turn and cook just until lightly browned on the other side and opaque throughout, about 1 minute. Transfer to another plate. Wipe out skillet.
  • Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in skillet over medium-high. Cook ginger, stirring, until very fragrant, about 20 seconds. Add onion and season with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until onion is translucent, about 1 minute (remove from heat if onion starts to go past golden brown). Add reserved rice mixture, sprinkle with sugar, and season with salt. Toss to combine, then cook, undisturbed, until rice is beginning to warm and crisp underneath, about 1 minute. Push some of the rice to the side to clear a few inches in skillet. Drizzle a bit of oil into the clearing. Add scallion white and pale green parts and garlic and cook, stirring, until just softened and fragrant, about 45 seconds. Toss into rice mixture and cook, tossing occasionally, until warmed through and rice is crisp and chewy, about 3 minutes. Return cooked egg whites to pan and cook, tossing and breaking up with spatula until distributed. Return salmon to pan and toss once to combine.
  • Divide among plates and top with furikake and scallion greens.
