The nori, in particular, boosts the level of deliciousness in each bite, thanks to seaweed's high umami properties (aka it's high in the "what makes this so tasty?" factor). Ingredients 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari 2 cloves garlic, grated 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil, divided 1 large bunch spring onions or scallions, white and green parts separated 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 3 cups small (1 in.) broccoli florets (from 1 bunch) 3 cups cooked and cooled long-grain white rice 1 cup matchstick carrots ½ cup toasted cashews ⅓ cup nori (dried seaweed), cut into 1½-by-¼-in. strips 4 large eggs Directions Whisk soy sauce, garlic, and 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a small bowl until combined; set aside. Quarter white parts of onions lengthwise (about 1 cup). Thinly slice green parts to measure 1 cup. Reserve any remaining green parts for serving. Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add broccoli and white parts of onions; cooking, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is vibrant green and onions are golden, about 4 minutes. Add rice, carrots, soy sauce mixture, and green parts of onions; cook, stirring occasionally, until rice is crisp, about 4 minutes. Stir in cashews and nori. Place in serving bowls. Heat skillet over medium. Add remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Fry eggs, covered, until whites are set and yolks are still runny, about 4 minutes. Serve eggs with fried rice. Top with reserved green parts of onions.
