Ingredients
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil light in flavour
4 free-range eggs, beaten
1 brown onion, finely diced
1 Tbsp finely grated ginger
100g Chinese-style lap cheong sausage, thinly sliced (3 sausages, see Cook’s tips, below)
2 garlic cloves, finely grated
1 tsp caster sugar
60ml Shaoxing wine (Chinese rice wine)
6 cups cooked jasmine rice, cold (see Cook’s tips, below)
3 green shallots, thinly sliced, plus extra sliced lengthways, to garnish
1 Tbsp oyster sauce
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1⁄2 tsp sesame oil
1⁄2 long red chilli, seeded, thinly diagonally sliced, to serve
Cook's tip:
You’ll find Chinese sausage at Asian grocers or in the Asian aisle of the supermarket. You can swap it for two rashers of finely chopped rindless bacon.
You can use two 450g packets of cooked cold SunRice Jasmine Fragrant Rice Microwave 2 1⁄2 mins instead of steamed jasmine rice, if you like.
Want a heartier dish? You can add shredded barbecue chicken, sliced grilled steak, pan-fried prawns or stir-fried pork meat.

Pour remaining oil into wok then stir-fry onion and ginger for 1 minute. Add sausage and stir-fry for 1 minute or until lightly browned. Stir in garlic, sugar and wine then stir-fry for another minute or until most liquid has been absorbed.

Add shallots, oyster sauce, soy sauce and sesame oil. Stir-fry for 3 minutes or until rice is heated through. Remove from heat.
