    Fry the rice and egg up together with some soy sauce, add some garlic in whatever form, bonus points if you have any white pepper, suddenly elevated.

    Or even just some ketchup, make omurice, can’t go wrong.

        Hey, it’s a thing, blame the Japanese!

        You fry the rice in ketchup, serve it in an omelette. Optionally top with more ketchup.

        Can sub the ketchup for demi-glace if that is more palettable, but that’s way more effort than I’m willing to put in for lazy time breakfast food.

          Omurice is awesome! Sounds terrible but is great. I frying some chopped onion and adding to the rice.

            You can use ketchup in stir fries the same way you’d use hoisin sauce or oyster sauce. Breaking it down, ketchup is tomato, vinegar, salt and sugar. I put it in after I’ve gotten the wok hei I want off the rice/veg/meat/egg, immediately after getting the food and fond off the sides of the wok with a lil shaoxing wine. Add in your sauces, toss to mix, sprinkle with scallion/chive/garlic scape greens, sesame seeds, serve.
