🥄 Texture
Soft, slightly sticky fried rice with tender, scrambled-egg pieces and pockets of caramelized, yielding plantain cubes. The sweet soy coating gives a light glaze that makes the grains cling together while the plantain adds occasional creamy, melt-in-your-mouth bites.
👃 Aroma
Sweet, caramelized plantain notes dominate with warm toasty rice and a savory soy-egg backdrop. The overall scent is comforting and sweet-savory rather than sharp or spicy.
🍷 Pairs Well With
A crisp, unsweetened iced green tea or a light, dry lager to balance the sweetness; alternatively a sparkling water with a squeeze of lime to cut richness.
🥗 Side Dishes
Quick cucumber and rice vinegar salad (adds acidity and crunch); sautéed leafy greens (bok choy or spinach) with garlic for bitterness and freshness; or a simple sambal or chili condiment on the side if you want optional heat.

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the diced plantain cubes and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they turn golden and soft. Remove and set aside on a plate.

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the same pan. Crack the eggs into the pan and scramble them until fully cooked (about 2-3 minutes). Break them into small pieces as they cook.
- 3
Add the cooked rice to the pan with the scrambled eggs. Stir and mix well for 2-3 minutes, breaking up any clumps of rice. Make sure the rice is heated through.

Pour the sweet soy sauce over the rice and mix everything together for 1-2 minutes until the rice is evenly coated and has a light brown color.

Add the cooked plantain back to the pan and toss everything together for 1 minute. Taste and add salt or pepper if needed. Serve hot.
