Method :
- Make the Chilli Dipping Sauce first by combining all the ingredients in a bowl, stirring to mix well. This makes about 175ml of sauce. Transfer to a serving bowl and set aside.
- Place the rice in a large bowl and toss it gently to separate the grains. Set aside.
- Heat the oil in a wok over high heat, turning to grease the sides. Add the garlic and stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the meat and stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes until the meat changes color, then add the eggs and mix well. Add the rice and stir-fry for several minutes, mixing and tossing constantly until the rice is heated through. Finally add the soy sauce, sugar and pepper. Stir-fry for a further1 to 2 minutes and remove from heat.
- Arrange the rice on a serving platter and scatter spring onions on top. Serve immediately with cucumber, tomatoes, lime and Chilli Dipping Sauce.
Notes : This dish always works better with cooked rice prepared a day or two in advance. So consider making extra rice whenever you cook for another meal.
