Make

  1. Heat a wok over medium-high heat. Add chopped prosciutto and saute until prosciutto is crisp. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate. 

  2. If prosciutto released oil while cooking, pour out all but ~1 Tbsp / 15 mL (for 4 servings, adjust if customizing) from the wok. If the wok is dry, add the same amount of cooking oil. 

  3. Add carrots to wok and saute until carrots are golden brown and tender, 3 to 5 minutes (note: if you have a lid that will cover the wok, place the lid on top to speed cooking).

  4. While carrots are cooking, combine Tamari, miso, fish sauce and vinegar and set aside.

  5. Return to carrots and add garlic. Saute for 1 minute. Add rice and Tamari mixture and stir to combine. Let rice sit, without stirring, for a minute to brown slightly on the bottom of the pan. Move rice to the sides of the wok and pour eggs into the 'donut' hole in the center. Scramble eggs until cooked through. 

  6. Stir in prosciutto, peas and lemon juice. 

  7. Divide rice between serving bowls and top each portion with green onions. Season with some extra Tamari and hot sauce, if you'd like. Enjoy!
