1 cup black rice
2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
6 eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon peeled and minced fresh ginger
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 green onions, thinly sliced for garnish
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted for garnish

Steps:

Rinse the rice in three or four changes of water and let it drain thoroughly in a fine-mesh sieve. Transfer rice to saucepan, add the stock and bring to boil over high heat. Cover, lower the heat to a brisk simmer and cook for about 20 minutes or until the rice is tender and no liquid remains in pan. Remove from heat, uncover and fluff with a fork. Set aside. Whisk 2 of the eggs in a small bowl. Heat the vegetable oil and sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the beaten eggs and cook through until they just set, gently breaking them up into large pieces as they cook. Add the garlic, ginger and cooked rice, season with salt and pepper and continue to stir and toss for 3 to 4 minutes, until some of the rice becomes crispy. Remove rice from heat and divide evenly among 4 bowls. Keep warm. Fry the remaining eggs in oil. Place an egg on top of each bowl of rice. Season with salt and pepper, garnish with green onions and sesame seeds and serve immediately.
