Pork Luncheon Meat Fried Rice with XO Sauce.

I had purposely reserved half portion of the pork luncheon meat I used for last night's dish for what I am going to prepare for lunch today. I had also prepared more rice last night.(Overnight rice are used for fried rice because in this way, the rice won't turn out too sticky and affect the taste of the dish.) Crack 2 eggs into the cold overnight plain rice and mix well. This is to give the plain rice a nice yellow colour and of course, the rice will taste better too.

Simply cut the pork luncheon meat into smaller cubes and prepare one or two diced onion. Then prepare some minced garlic. Of course you may add in some finely chopped red chillies and green spring onion (I have run out of those in my fridge today) to make the dish more colourful and appetizing.
Simply prepare these 3 ingredients. (half portion of the pork luncheon meat cut into smaller cubes, 2 medium size onion diced and some minced garlic)

Crack in 2  eggs and mix it well with the cold overnight plain rice.

XO Sauce - its a fabulous sauce that will surely enhance the taste of the fried rice.


Now, heat up some oil, throw in the minced garlic and fry till frangrance. Crack in  a beaten egg and let it set slightly before mashing it up and add in the pork luncheon meat and onions. Stir fry till the pork luncheon meat are brown and crisp. Its now ready to add in the plain rice coated with eggs. Add in 3 tbsp of the XO sauce. Keep folding and mix well and season with some white pepper powder and a little bit of light soy sauce just to enhance the flavor. Don't put too much light soy sauce or the fried rice will turn out too salty because the XO sauce and the pork luncheon meat are already salty. Keep folding and press with the spatula, making sure the rice is nicely browned and fluffy.


Yummy fried rice with pork luncheon meat, XO sauce and fried egg.


I always like to prepare some fried eggs to go with the fried rice. Topped with some homemade dried shrimp sambal.Yummm....
