SOY SAUCE FRIED RICE (酱油炒饭)

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.

LOCAL STYLE FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Heat a wok or large frying pan over medium heat. Drizzle in 2 tablespoons of oil and scramble the eggs for 30 seconds or until cooked to your preference. Set the eggs aside on a plate.
• Drizzle in 2 tablespoons of oil again to the wok. Fry the toughest vegetable (for this recipe it is the carrots) for a couple of minutes. Then keep frying the next tender vegetable (onions) and fry for another couple of minutes. Lastly, add in the most tender vegetable and cook for a minute. Set aside the cooked vegetables.
• *If your meat isn't cooked or you would like to warm it up, fry the meat in the wok for a few minutes or until the meat is cooked.
• Drizzle in 2 tablespoons of oil again to the wok. Add in the leftover rice and fry it until all of the rice has been coated in the oil. Add in the oyster sauce, shoyu, white pepper, and salt. Stir fry until well combined.
• Add everything back to the wok. Eggs, vegetables, and meat. Stir fry everything until has mixed well. Serve hot as a hearty meal or side dish. Enjoy!

FIVE-SPICE SHOYU CHICKEN

Steps:

• Cut up chicken Chinese style (Cut off the end of the bone in the drumstick, cut each thigh in half, cut each wing into 2 segments with meat, and cut the breasts into strips transversely through the carcass with a heavy cleaver).
• Do not debone chicken.
• Combine the teriyaki sauce, five spice powder, cilantro, sesame oil, wine, and soy sauce.
• For added flavor, combine ingredients and marinate chicken for 12-24 hours before cooking.
• Add sauce and chicken to large saucepan of wok and bring to a simmer.
• Cook, covered, at least 30 minutes or until chicken cooked through.
• If time permits, cook for up to 1 hour on low heat- the longer cook time will get the chicken fall-off-the-bones tender.
• Serve warm with rice (Also makes great leftovers).
