About this dish

The oil from the tuna can goes straight into the pan and the onion and carrot fry in it, so the tuna flavor gets into the vegetables and rice.

Instructions

6 steps
  1. 1

    Dice 80 g onion and 40 g carrot into pieces smaller than 0.5 cm, then thinly slice 20 g green onion.

    Break up any clumps in 2 cups cooked rice before cooking.

  2. 2

    Pour the oil from the tuna can directly into the pan and heat it over medium heat.

    Add the onion and carrot, then stir-fry for about 2 minutes until the onion turns translucent and the carrot starts to soften.

  3. 3

    Add the tuna flesh and break up any large chunks with a spatula.

    Stir-fry for about 1 minute, letting excess moisture evaporate, until the edges of the tuna begin to look lightly golden.

  4. 4

    Add 2 cups cooked rice and raise the heat to high, spreading the rice across the pan.

    Press and fold it with the spatula for about 2 minutes so the grains separate instead of clumping.

  5. 5

    Pour 1.5 tbsp soy sauce around the edge of the pan, then mix it through right away.

    When the aroma rises, stir-fry for 1 more minute until the rice is evenly colored and not wet.

  6. 6

    Lower the heat, add 1 tsp sesame oil and the sliced green onion, and toss for 30 seconds.

    Divide the rice between two bowls and place 1 of the 2 fried eggs on each.

Tips

Using the oil from the tuna can replaces the need for cooking oil.
Break up cold rice before adding it so the grains do not stay clumped.
