Steps:

• Puree water, cilantro, mint, scallions, and garlic in a blender until smooth.
• Heat oil in a small saucepan over high heat. Add rice, and stir to coat. Cook until slightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add herb puree and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, and cook, covered, for 20 minutes.
• Remove from heat, and let stand, covered, for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.

Steps:

• Heat up oil and fry the scallions.
• Add the beaten egg and fry,breaking up the egg.
• Add the rice and fry for another minute.
• Season and serve.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, heat olive oil over medium. Add scallions; cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Stir in rice, chicken broth, and 1 cup water. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer. Cover; cook until rice is tender and has absorbed liquid, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat; let stand, covered, 10 minutes more.
• Fluff with a fork; fold in cilantro.

Steps:

• Place a medium-size pot with a lid over medium-high heat with about 2 tablespoons of oil.
• Add the rice to the pan and cook it for a minute, then add the chicken stock.
• Bring the liquids up to a bubble, then put the lid on the pot, reduce the heat and cook until the rice has absorbed all of the liquid, 40-45 minutes (18-20 minutes for white rice).
• Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and stir in scallions.
• Alternately you can cook this in your rice cooker, according to cooking directions. I have to presoak brown rice. Just skip the browning, oil is optional, and add scallions at the end. Fluff and serve.

Steps:

• Cut the tofu block crosswise into 6 equal segments, then cut the segments into 3 equal pieces to make 18 pieces. Press the tofu pieces between paper towels to dry them. Set aside.
• Add the scallions, fish sauce and sugar to a medium heatproof bowl and place the bowl next to the stove. Place a wire rack in a baking pan or sheet and place next to the stove as well.
• Add 2 1/2 inches of oil to a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan or high-walled cast-iron skillet set over medium-high heat. When the oil reaches 190 degrees F (see Cook's Note), ladle out 1/2 cup of oil and slowly pour over the scallion mixture; it should sizzle. Set aside the scallion oil while you fry the tofu.
• Heat the remaining oil in the saucepan to 375 degrees F. Add the tofu and fry until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the tofu to the wire rack-lined baking pan to drain.
• Divide the tofu among 2 to 3 bowls of rice. Stir the scallion oil to incorporate the oil with the scallions, then ladle generous spoonfuls over the tofu.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan bring 4 quarts water to a boil with the salt. Sprinkle in the rice, stirring until the water returns to a boil, and boil it for 10 minutes. Drain the rice in a large colander and rinse it. Set the colander over a large saucepan of boiling water and steam the rice, covered with a kitchen towel and the lid, for 15 minutes, or until it is fluffy and dry. In a small skillet cook the white part of the scallion in the butter over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is softened and in a bowl toss the rice with the scallion mixture, the scallion greens, and salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Cook rice. I used a rice steamer. If you use a different method, the ratio may be different. When rice is cooked, spread it out on a large baking sheet & let cool completely.
• Prep everything.
• Chop onions & scallions.
• Beat eggs, add 1TB soy sauce & pepper.
• Heat wok until it is HOT. Add 1TB oil - vegetable/canola/sesame(NOT toasted!) & swirl to coat sides. Add egg mixture, swirl to coat sides. Scrape pan to cook it all quickly, scraping as you go. This will take 2-3 minutes. When all get is cooked, not just set, scrape into a bowl & set aside.
• Add 2TB oil to hot wok. Add chopped onions. Cook until browned & softened, 3-5 minutes.
• Add cooled rice. Every few minutes, scrape up from the bottom, so that the rice on the bottom & sides get a bit crispy. When it starts looking crispy, not burned, add soy sauce along top rim of rice & stir fry/stir up well. Keep turning up from bottom as you go along. I added another TB or so oil along the top rim of rice -- it goes down the sides coating the rice & helps to crisp it up. This will take 5 minutes or more. Take the time to let it cook & get a bit crispy.
• Sprinkle on enough sesame seeds to make you happy & stir that in, continuing to stir up from the bottom.
• Add 1TB (or more) toasted sesame oil to the top rim of the rice & continue to stir it from the bottom.
• Chop up scrambled egg w/spoon & add to rice. Continue to stir from the bottom.
• Add chopped scallions & continue to stir --.
• Season with salt to taste, stirring well between each addition to check seasoning.
• Add more soy sauce and/or sesame oil if it suits you. :).
