Shiitake and Cremini Fried Rice (and an Omelette on Top)

This is part two of a two part recipe instructable, the other being the sauce+omelette instructable that you can find here: https://www.instructables.com/id/Lava-Omelette-and....

This instructable focuses on a delicious shiitake fried rice that goes perfectly as a foundation for the omelette, but can also hold its own as a separate dish, or mixed with other dishes. Rice is well known to be the most loved source of carbo for east asian cultures, and one of its strongest points is its ability to accentuate the scent of other ingredients. Hence, mushrooms and rice makes such a great combo together, bringing you truly amazing aroma and taste.

Step 1: Ingredients

cooked rice
2 shiitake
4 cremini
scallion
olive oil
salt

Additionally, have some of the sauce in the previous instructable ready to use.

Step 2: Cutting Board Work

Finely dice scallion
wash and cut shiitake and cremini into 2mm-thick slices

Step 3: Saute the Mushrooms

In a hot pan under medium heat:

add 2 tbsp of olive oil

Step 4: Frying the Rice

Dump 1/2 bowl of cooked rice into the pan (or whatever amount you can comfortably fit)

add 4 tbsps of the homemade tonkatsu sauce
mix and stir as you cook the rice for 8 minutes.
