Fried rice is a very common dish in Chinese cuisine, but it is also one of the easiest ways to introduce truffle into a menu.
Many restaurants use this method because it is simple, cost-controlled, and easy for customers to accept.
Ingredients
- cooked rice (preferably overnight rice)
- eggs
- green onion
- light soy sauce
- fresh black truffle
Cooking method
- Heat oil and scramble the eggs first
- Add rice and stir-fry until separated
- Add a small amount of soy sauce for basic seasoning
- Mix in chopped green onion
At the final step, add thin slices or small pieces of fresh truffle and mix lightly.
Key point
Truffle should not be fried for too long. High heat will reduce its aroma.
Most restaurants add it at the end or even after plating.
Commercial perspective
This dish works well because:
- low ingredient cost
- high perceived value
- easy to standardize
Even a small amount of truffle can increase the menu price significantly.
If you are supplying restaurants, this dish is often a good starting point.
