Sticky Rice

For best results use rice that has been chilled for at least 24 hours. When ready to stir-fry, add 2 tablespoons of oil to the rice and work your hands through the grains to separate the grains.

Ham

A good substitute here is really crispy bacon. 2 slices of your favorite variety should yield 1/4 cup of crumbled bacon.
