Step 1

Break up day-old cooked rice into granules with clean hands or a rice paddle and set aside.

Step 2

Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large pan on medium-high heat. Add beaten eggs and scramble them until they take shape. Once they take shape and are still moist, quickly remove and set aside.

Step 3

Into the pan, add remaining vegetable oil followed by green onions and cook for 10-15 seconds or until fragrant. (Optional: if you're adding protein, add it at this point and cook until it's 75% cooked through).

Step 4

Then add diced tomatoes and minced garlic. Mix everything together and allow the juices to evaporate, a few minutes.

Step 5

Once the juices have evaporated, toss in rice followed by dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, ketchup, sesame oil and cooked eggs. Toss everything together until every rice granule is colored brown. Serve immediately and enjoy!
