How to cook it

  1. Break up any clumps in the cold rice with your fingers so the grains separate.

  2. Heat half the oil in a wok over high heat, pour in the beaten eggs, and scramble briefly until just set, then push to one side.

  3. Add the remaining oil and the rice, breaking up any last clumps, and toss over high heat until the grains are hot and starting to crisp at the edges, about 5 minutes.

  4. Fold the scrambled egg through the rice.

  5. Season with the fish sauce and salt and toss to coat evenly.

  6. Scatter with scallions and serve hot.
