Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

2 cups jasmine rice

2 cups chicken stock

1 ½ cups water

4 tablespoons butter, divided, or more to taste

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 large eggs, beaten

3 tablespoons sesame seeds, or to taste

2 tablespoons soy sauce (such as Kikkoman), or to taste

⅛ teaspoon salt

⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

Place rice, chicken stock, and water in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in 2 tablespoons butter, and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add beaten eggs and scramble, stirring often to chop chunks of egg into small bits with a spatula.

Place cooked rice in a large mixing bowl. Add scrambled eggs and toss with rice until well combined.

Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Dump rice mixture into the hot pan. Add sesame seeds, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring often, for 8 minutes. Taste and add more butter or soy sauce as desired. Serve hot.
