How to use shirataki rice & Make it taste like the real thing!

Ingredients

• 1 package (200 g) Shirataki Rice (Konjac Rice) (drained and rinsed)
• 4 cloves Garlic (thinly sliced for chips; 2 tsp minced for sauce)
• 2 tablespoons Neutral Oil (Canola or Vegetable) (for initial garlic chip frying)
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter (softened, cut into cubes)
• 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce (regular or tamari for gluten‑free)
• 1 teaspoon Mirin (optional) (adds subtle sweetness)
• 2 large Eggs (lightly whisked)
• 2 stalks Scallions (thinly diced for garnish)
• to taste Salt
• to taste Black Pepper

Instructions

1. Drain and Rinse Shirataki Rice

   Open the package, pour the rice into a colander over a bowl, discard the liquid, then rinse the rice under cold tap water 2‑3 times, shaking the colander to remove excess water.

   Time: PT5M

2. Dry the Rice

   Let the rice sit in the colander for 2 minutes to drain completely. Pat lightly with a paper towel if needed.

   Time: PT2M

3. Dry‑Fry the Rice

   Heat the nonstick skillet over medium heat with no oil. Add the drained rice, spreading it in an even layer. Stir gently for about 5 minutes until the grains become slightly firm and any remaining moisture evaporates.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: Medium heat

4. Fry Garlic Chips

   Add 2 Tbsp neutral oil to the same skillet (still cold), then add the sliced garlic cloves. Cook over medium‑low heat, stirring occasionally, until the slices turn light golden and crisp.

   Time: PT4M

   Temperature: Medium‑low heat

5. Reserve Garlic Oil and Chips

   Using a slotted spoon, transfer the crispy garlic chips to a small bowl. Set aside. Keep the infused oil in the skillet for the next steps.

   Time: PT1M

6. Add Butter and Minced Garlic

   Add 1 Tbsp butter to the skillet with the garlic oil. Once melted, stir in 2 tsp minced garlic. Cook for about 2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it brown.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: Medium heat

7. Sauté the Shirataki Rice

   Add the pre‑dry‑fried rice back into the skillet. Toss continuously so every grain is coated with the butter‑garlic oil mixture.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: Medium heat

8. Season with Soy Sauce (and Mirin)

   Create a small well in the center of the rice, pour in 1 Tbsp soy sauce (and 1 tsp mirin if using). Let it sizzle for 30 seconds, then fold the sauce through the rice.

   Time: PT1M

   Temperature: Medium‑high heat

9. Add the Eggs

   Push the rice to the sides of the pan, pour the whisked eggs into the cleared center, and scramble gently. Once the eggs begin to set, fold them into the rice until fully incorporated and the mixture is no longer wet.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: Medium heat

10. Finish and Garnish

    Remove the pan from heat. Sprinkle diced scallions over the top, add the reserved garlic chips, and drizzle a little of the remaining garlic‑oil for extra flavor.

    Time: PT1M
