The Master Method

01.

The Rice Pre-Treatment

For authentic results, use 1121 Steam Basmati that has been refrigerated overnight. If using fresh rice, spread it thin on a tray and place it under a high-speed fan for 30 minutes to eliminate surface moisture.

02.

Wok Conditioning

Place a wok over your highest burner. Heat until it starts smoking. Pour oil around the rim to coat the entire surface. This creates a natural non-stick barrier called "Longyau".

03.

The Sizzle

Add minced garlic, ginger, and spring onion whites. Sauté for 20 seconds. Add the carrots and beans. Stir-fry vigorously on high flame for 2 minutes until they are 80% cooked.

04.

The Tossing Phase

Fold in the chilled rice. Drizzle the soy sauce and vinegar along the smoking sides of the wok—this caramelizes the sauce before it hits the rice, adding the signature smoky flavor.

05.

The Final Temper

Season with white pepper and a pinch of sugar. Toss for one last minute until you hear the rice "crackling". Garnish with spring onion greens and serve immediately.

Exporter's Insight: Grain Strength & Heat

  • Why 1121 Steam? We recommend the 1121 Steam variety because the steaming process makes the grain resilient. This allows vigorous tossing without the grains snapping.
  • The Moisture Enemy: The #1 mistake is using warm rice. Warm rice releases starch, creating a mushy texture.
  • Wok Hei: The characteristic restaurant flavor comes from high heat. Never lower your flame during the 5 minutes of active cooking.
