Ingredients

  • ¼ pound bbq pork (char siu) (6 inch piece)
  • 3-4 stalks chinese chives (optional) sliced
  • 1 green onion sliced
  • 4 eggs
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon chicken bouillon
  • pinch of sugar
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil

Instructions

  • Cut green onions and chives. Slice char siu in large or small cubes (up to you!). Set aside.
  • Whisk 4 eggs with ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon chicken bouillon, and sugar. Set aside beaten eggs.
  • Heat pan on low medium heat. Once hot, add 1 tablespoon avocado oil. Add bbq pork on the pan and fry for a minute or until you see the pieces golden.
  • Immediately, add chinese chives and green onions to the pan. Then, add whisked eggs. Scramble and cook for 30 seconds.
  • The dish should take no longer than 3 minutes to cook The longer we cook, the eggs & char siu will be overcooked and dry. Hope you enjoy!

Notes

  • EXPERT TIPS
    • Scramble the eggs for no more than 30 seconds to 1 minute. If you cook the eggs longer than 1 minute, the eggs are not as soft and will have a drier texture.
    • Use medium low heat to cook the eggs. This creates a super soft texture and cooks them slowly. High heat will overcook the eggs easily.
    • Use Chinese chives for exceptional and savory flavor!
