AN NAM MACKEREL IN BLACK PEPPER SAUCE FRIED RICE

🌟 Ingredients
- 1 can of An Nam Mackerel In Black Pepper Sauce
- 1 bowl of cold cooked rice (preferably leftover rice so that the grains are firm)
- 2 eggs
- 1 shallot (or small onion), finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Chopped scallions, fresh chili slices, ground black pepper (to taste)
- 1–2 tablespoons cooking oil
- Soy sauce, seasoning powder (optional, if you want to boost flavor)
👩🍳 Instructions
- Heat a pan over medium-high heat with a bit of oil. Sauté the garlic and shallot until golden and fragrant.
- Add the cold rice to the pan along with the eggs and the contents of the An Nam Mackerel In Black Pepper Sauce can. Stir well over high heat so that the rice grains are coated and infused with the pepper sauce.
- Mix in scallions, freshly ground black pepper, and sliced chili if you like some heat.
- Taste and adjust with a little soy sauce or seasoning powder if needed (usually the mackerel is already perfectly seasoned).
- Serve immediately while hot. For a tangy contrast, enjoy with sliced cucumber, fresh tomatoes, or pickled vegetables on the side. Sprinkle crispy shallots or pork cracklings on top if you’d like an extra crunch!
💡 Tips
- For a Korean-Vietnamese fusion twist, toss in some chopped kimchi at the end for a spicy, tangy kick — absolutely addictive!
