Notes: This is just about one of my favorite fried rice dishes. And three months ago I had never heard of it. I went into a Malaysian/Thai restaurant I go to now and then and saw this on the menu. They had three “salted fish” dishes and this one was recommended by our waiter so I ordered it. And I was amazed at how delicious and simple it was. Nothing haute cuisine-ish. Just delicious taste without being fishy. So I set out to duplicate this at home since I loved it so much. I spent weeks researching ingredients and testing things. And I will tell you I made some dreadful mistakes. What you see here is the correct recipe with the bugs worked out.
