Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1Prepare the Seasoned Egg Mixture
    Eggs cracked in a measuring cup with seasonings and milk being poured in.

    Crack the eggs into a measuring cup, add a pinch of salt, some black pepper, and a splash of milk to ensure the final scrambled eggs are rich and flavorful.

    Tip: Add a splash of milk or cream to the eggs for a softer, richer texture.
  2. 2Whisk the Eggs
    Eggs, milk, and seasonings being whisked together in a measuring cup.

    Thoroughly whisk the eggs, milk, and seasonings together until the mixture is uniform and smooth.

    Tip: Whisk well to incorporate air, which helps create soft scrambled eggs.
  3. 3Form the Cheese-Filled Rice Balls
    Cooked rice being shaped into a ball with a hidden cheese core.

    Take a portion of cooked rice, place a small cube of cheese in the center, and shape it tightly into a ball to form the base of the chicks, remembering to poke small holes before adding features.

    Tip: Poke a small hole in the rice ball before inserting the facial features so they stick firmly.
  4. 4Decorate the Rice Chicks
    Tweezers placing sesame seeds and corn onto a rice ball to form a chicks face.

    Using tweezers, carefully attach sesame seeds for the eyes and a sweet corn kernel for the beak onto each rice ball to create cute chick faces.

    Tip: Poke small holes into the rice before placing the seeds and corn so they hold securely.
  5. 5Melt Butter and Pour Eggs
    Seasoned egg mixture poured into a non-stick pan with melted butter.

    Pour the seasoned egg mixture into a preheated non-stick pan containing melted butter, turning off the heat initially to use residual heat and gently set the base without overcooking.

    Tip: Turn off the heat once the butter melts before pouring the eggs to prevent overcooking.
  6. 6Arrange Rice Balls in the Pan
    Chick-shaped rice balls being arranged inside a non-stick pan filled with liquid egg mixture.

    Carefully place the prepared chick-shaped rice balls directly into the non-stick pan containing the liquid egg mixture, arranging them neatly so the eggs splash evenly around their bases.

    Tip: Place them gently so the eggs splash evenly around the base of each rice ball.
  7. 7Simmer the Curry Sauce
    Curry block and water added to sautéed potatoes and carrots in a pan.

    Add a curry block and water to the pan with sautéed potatoes and carrots, stirring continuously until the sauce richly thickens.

    Tip: Stir frequently to prevent the curry from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
