American Fried Rice

Instructions

1. Rub the 1 chicken drumstick all over with 1 tsp of light soy sauce and a pinch of white pepper. Set aside to marinate for 15 minutes while you prepare everything else.
2. Tip 180 g of cold cooked jasmine rice into a bowl and break up every clump with wet fingers, so the grains run loose. Dice 30 g of ham, slice 30 g of cucumber and 1 spring onion, and score the 1 hot dog diagonally on both sides.
3. Heat the deep-frying oil in a small wok or saucepan to 170C. Lower in the drumstick and fry 10-12 minutes, turning now and then, until the skin is deep golden and the juices at the bone run clear. Lift onto a rack to drain.
