Steps:
- Add soy sauce into a small sauce pan. Heat over medium high heat until boiling.
- Add the rest of the ingredients. Stir and cook until the sugar completely dissolves and the liquid starts to simmer again.
- Turn to medium low heat. Simmer until the liquid is reduced to about two-thirds of the original volume, and the soy sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Check on the pan every 15 minutes. It could take anywhere from 30 minutes to more than one hour, depending on the heat and the pan you use. Remove the pan from the stove.
- Place a sieve over a heatproof airtight glass container or jar and pour in the soy sauce. Discard all the solid ingredients.
- Let the soy sauce cool completely. It is ready to use. Or you can store it covered in the fridge for a year.

ASIAN INFUSED SOY SAUCE
I keep a jar of this in the fridge to have on hand and use it in almost all my Asian recipes. It will make a great dipping sauce for dumplings (wontons) when mixed with a little balsamic vinegar and some mirin. Sometimes I add chilli, but we don't always want chilli in our dinners so I'd rather add it later. A simple stirfry sauce can be made with this, add some fresh coriander and a sliced chilli and some oyster sauce. A jar kept in the fridge will keep for weeks- if you don't use it before then! Adjust flavours to taste. Tamari, dark and light soys can be used. Australian measurements (1 T = 4 tsp)

Steps:
- Add the garlic and ginger to the soy sauce in a sealable jar.
- Put the lid on and shake.
- Taste the mix to see if you would like more ginger and/or garlic (I like mine fairly strong tasting).
- Adjust to taste.
- Put the lid on and keep in the fridge. Shake before using. Flavours will infuse the sauce as time goes on.

Steps:
- Combine the light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, and white pepper in a small bowl. Stir to mix well.
- Add the butter into a large nonstick skillet and heat over medium-high heat until melted. Add the eggs. Cook until the bottom is slightly set. Scramble until the eggs are mostly cooked.
- Add the rice onto the egg. Cook and chop the rice with your spatula, to separate the grains and coat the rice with egg. Cook until the heat builds up and you can hear a vibrant sizzling.

- Add the green onion and stir to mix well.
- Carefully taste the rice. Season lightly with sea salt if needed. Stir and mix thoroughly, so the salt is evenly dispersed.
- Transfer the rice to a bowl and serve hot as a side or a light main dish.
