Before you cook

Have the ingredients chopped and the sauces measured before heating the wok.

How to make Char Siu Pork Fried Rice

  1. Break up the cold rice so the grains are loose. Heat about a tablespoon of neutral oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high.

  2. Stir-fry the pork briefly, then add the onion, peas and carrots. Move them aside and scramble the egg in the open side with a little more oil.

  3. Add the rice and toss everything together. Pour the wine around the edge and stir briefly, then add the soy sauce and oyster sauce. Toss until evenly seasoned.

  4. Finish with sesame oil and scallions if using.
