The latest episode of Epicurious' 4 Levels series features Culinary Arts Chef-Instructor King Phojanakong's pro take on fried rice with three proteins, prepared in a wok.
Like many versions of the comfort food, Chef King's uses day-old, long-grain rice. He combines "jewels" of Chinese sausage, chicken breast and shrimp with the staple onion and a few secret weapons: crab paste, oyster sauce and edamame beans.
Chef King garnishes the dish with Japanese mayo and furikake, thin shavings of smoked fish. He touts the finished product for its mouthfeel saying, "you taste every little component in there."
