  5. Rest for five minutes and then slice across the grain.

  2. Once cooked, lay out in one layer on a baking sheet and allow to cool.

  3. When ready to prepare, place the vegetable oil in a deep pan or wok.

  4. Add the garlic and cook for three minutes, making sure it does not burn.

  5. Add the shallots and the white parts of the green onions. Combine and cook for another three minutes.

  6. Add the soy sauce and sesame oil and cook for one minute.

  7. Add the rice and combine well with the rest of the ingredients.

  8. Turn the heat down, cover the pan and keep the rice warm until you are ready.

  3. Allow to cool.

 

For the Zucchini

To Create the Bowl

  3. Place the fried egg in the center of the bowl, and drizzle with hot sauce before serving if desired.
