Ingredients:
- Sticky Rice (enough for 3-4 people)
- 1 bunch scallions, chopped
- 2 small onions, chopped
- 1 head Chinese cabbage chopped (I recommend Napa)
- 1 1/2 tbsp. fresh ginger, minced fine
- 6-8 cloves garlic, minced fine
- 2 tbsp. peanut oil
- 2 tbsp. grapeseed oil
- 1 tsp. sesame seed oil
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 1 to 1 1/2 lbs. meat (pork, chicken, tofu, beef, whatever you feel like)
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp teriyaki sauce
- 1 tbsp. sweet cooking rice wine
- 3/4 c. parsley, chopped fine
Get the wok nice and hot and add the oils. When the oil starts to
smoke, add the ginger and the garlic and stir vigorously (I use 2
wooden paddles myself). Add meat, onions, and scallions. When meat is
mostly cooked through, add the beaten eggs and stir vigorously. As egg
starts to dry up, add cabbage and rice, a little at a time. After
adding half the rice and cabbage, add the soy, teriyaki sauce, and
rice wine. Stir vigorously. Add rest of rice and cabbage as well as
the parsley. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally and serve
piping hot with an ice cold Asian beer.
Before you start cooking, prepare all ingredients. I recommend
using a well-seasoned carbon steel wok (I don't care for non-stick
woks as you generally can't cook as hot in them). If you're not a big
fan of ginger, cut it down by half (but don't eliminate it unless you
really can't stand it). Even with the full amount of ginger, this dish
won't have that `soapy' taste that you get in some restaurants' ginger
dishes (Yuk!).
