Taiwanese Hand Roll (Fan Tuan)

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Calrose rice
  • 2 1/4 cups water
  • 2 pieces Chinese doughnut
  • 1 cup pickled mustard greens
  • 1/2 cup pork floss
  • 4 fried eggs (over medium)
  • 1 tablespoon cilantro leaves, for garnish

  1. Rinse the Calrose rice in cold water, draining 3 times until the water runs clear.

  5. Take ¼ of the cooked rice and spread it into a 10x8-inch rectangle, using a rice paddle to maintain the shape.
  6. Place a small amount of pickled mustard greens and pork floss near the center of the rice.
  7. Add a piece of the crispy Chinese doughnut, then top with a fried egg.
  8. Garnish with fried shallots, sliced green onions, and cilantro leaves.
  9. Carefully roll the rice into a burrito shape using the plastic wrap, making sure to keep everything tightly packed.
  10. Twist both ends of the plastic wrap to seal the hand roll.
  11. Remove the plastic from one end and enjoy!
