Ingredients

Scale

2 cups cooked jasmine rice (preferably day-old)
1 ½ cups cooked duck meat, shredded or diced
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, bell peppers)
3 green onions, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1-inch ginger, grated
1 small onion, diced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
½ teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
Salt, to taste
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

If using leftover duck, shred or dice it.
Dice the vegetables and chop the green onions.
Ensure the rice is cold and separate any clumps.
Beat the eggs and set aside.

Step 2: Cook the Eggs

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large wok over medium heat.
Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble them gently until fully cooked.
Remove and set aside.

Step 3: Sauté Aromatics & Duck

In the same wok, add 1 tablespoon of oil.
Sauté the garlic, ginger, and onion until fragrant.
Add the shredded duck and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly crispy.

Step 4: Stir-Fry the Rice

Add the cold rice, breaking up clumps.
Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and hoisin sauce, stirring to combine.

Step 5: Add Vegetables & Finish the Dish

Toss in the vegetables and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes.
Return the scrambled eggs to the wok.
Season with white pepper, sesame oil, and chili flakes.
Adjust seasoning if needed and mix well.

Notes

Use Day-Old Rice – Fresh rice is too sticky; refrigerated rice gives the best texture.
Cook on High Heat – Ensures proper caramelization and prevents mushy rice.
Don’t Overcrowd the Pan – Stir-fry in batches for even cooking.
Enhance Flavor – Add a splash of dark soy sauce for deeper color.
Crispy Duck Option – Sear duck in a dry pan before adding it for extra crispiness.
