Cooking Instructions
Step 1
To begin making this delicious fried rice, first prepare all the necessary ingredients meticulously. It’s best to use freshly cooked, warm rice to enhance the flavor of your fried rice.
Step 2
Gently shred the imitation crab sticks lengthwise, or finely chop them into bite-sized pieces (about 1cm). Finely mince the onion and carrot for a tender texture when cooked. Slice the green onion thinly, ready to be used for aroma.
Step 3
Heat a deep pan or wok over medium-low heat. Add 2-3 tablespoons of canola oil and spread it evenly across the pan.
Step 4
Add the thinly sliced green onions to the heated pan. Sauté them over low heat to release their fragrant aroma into the oil. Be careful not to burn them.
Step 5
Once the green onion aroma has infused the oil, add the minced carrot and onion to the pan and stir-fry them together. Cooking the vegetables until they become translucent will bring out their natural sweetness.
Step 6
Continue to stir-fry the vegetables, stirring them evenly with a spatula, until they are tender. Stirring intermittently will prevent the vegetables from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Step 7
When the vegetables are nicely sautéed, it’s time to add the imitation crab sticks. Add the prepared crab sticks to the pan.
Step 8
After adding the crab sticks, gently mix them with the vegetables rather than stir-frying vigorously. Mix them softly to combine without breaking apart the delicate crab meat.
Step 9
Now, add the bowl of warm Gyeonggimi Chamdream rice to the pan. Gently break up any clumps of rice with your spatula as you stir-fry.
Step 10
While stir-frying the rice, pour 2 tablespoons of soy sauce around the edges of the pan. The soy sauce caramelizing will add a wonderful depth of flavor. Mix everything thoroughly to ensure the rice and all ingredients are evenly coated with the soy sauce.
Step 11
Reduce the heat slightly, then pour the beaten egg into the pan to make scrambled eggs. Once the egg is halfway cooked, gently mix it into the rice. This will add a creamy texture and enhance the overall flavor of the fried rice. Your delicious Gyeonggimi Chamdream crab stick fried rice is almost complete!
Step 12
Serve the finished crab stick fried rice attractively on a plate or in a bowl. Finally, sprinkle a pinch of toasted sesame seeds over the top for an extra nutty aroma and a visually appealing presentation. Enjoy your meal!
