Crab Fried Rice





Ingredients:
4 oz cooked crab meat
2 cups cooked jasmine rice
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 cloves garlic
3 tbsp canola oil
3 bunches of scallions
Pinch of sugar
Salt and pepper to taste 

Instructions:
Dice the garlic. Chop scallions into 1/2 inch pieces.
In the skillet, heat canola oil over medium heat.
Add the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds. (Don't burn the garlic, it's going to give bitter taste)
Add one lightly beaten egg to the garlic and quickly scramble up.
Mix in the rice with egg and cook stirring occasionally for 4-5 minutes.
Pour soy sauce on top, add pinch of sugar, salt and pepper, mix and cook for another minute. (Make sure you don't put too much salt, because the soy sauce is already salty!)
Add chopped scallions with crab meat, mix everything together.
Pour the second egg on top and mix well until the egg spreads evenly and cooks through.
Enjoy!

I got this recipe from "Cooking Channel", made by Ching-He Huang, Ching's Everyday Easy Chinese, but changed it around a bit to my own taste.

1 tbsp cornstarch
Salt and pepper

Sweet sauce:
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 tbsp Sriracha
1 tbsp ketchup
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp black bean sauce
1 tbsp honey


1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 clove garlic, left whole and crushed
1 tbsp rice wine
3 whole dried chilli peppers
2 scallions, chopped


1. In a bowl mix chicken, salt, pepper and corn starch. Set aside.
2. In separate bowl mix together chicken stock, Sriracha, ketchup, soy sauce, rice vinegar, black bean sauce, honey.
3. Heat wok over high heat. Add oil, garlic and chicken. Cook for 2 mins until starts to brown a bit.
4. Add rice wine and dried chillies, stir and cook for another minute.
5. Add the sweet sauce and cook for 5 mins.
6. Cook until chicken is cooked through and sauce has reduced and became thicker.
