Mix the leftover rice
Put the leftover rice into a bowl, separate the egg yolk into it, add 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/3 cup of corn starch (rice bowl) that has been prepared. Then mix the mixture until it binds together into a large, thick mass that is not loose, and when stirred, it feels heavy and can be shaped is complete.

Fry the mixture
Prepare a small pan, pour 100ml of cooking oil into it and heat over medium heat. When the oil starts to boil, lower the heat, add a suitable amount of the leftover rice mixture, and carefully use a spoon or chopsticks to shape the cakes into flat shapes; the flatter the cake, the crispier it will be.
After shaping, increase the heat to fry the cakes, frying each side for about 3 – 4 minutes until they turn a beautiful golden brown.
Then flip to the other side and fry for another 2 – 3 minutes before removing and draining the oil. Fry in turn until all the leftover rice mixture is used up.

After frying the cakes, I pour the frying oil into a bowl.
When the pan is still hot, quickly add 3 tablespoons of chili sauce, 2 tablespoons of fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of sugar, a little lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon of seasoning powder, 1/2 tablespoon of chili powder, and finally a bit of chopped green onion. Then, stir well until the mixture boils and thickens a bit, then season to taste and turn off the stove.
