 Cha-Han For Two

 Ingredients

Method

  • 360g of rice (about 2 small bowls of rice). Short grain, long grain, use the one you prefer 
  • 2-3 spring onion
  • 2 eggs
  • Diced char siu pork (bacon is fine!)
  • 2 Chicken stock cubes
  • 2 tbsp of Japanese mayonnaise 

Mix rice with mayonnaise and eggs, so rice won't stick to the pan.
