Mushroom Fried Rice inspired by Danny Bowien of Mission Chinese

I was very inspired by Danny Bowien's mushroom fried rice and decided to make fried rice for dinner. Instead of doing what I usually do, I practiced restraint. Here's the ingredients.

2 tbs Mushroom powder
4 scallions
2 cloves garlic
2 slices ginger
3 cups jasmine rice
4 tbs soy sauce
4 tbs sesame oil
2 tbs chili oil
4 dried shitake mushroom
1/4 cup ground pork

Soak the mushrooms in warm water 4 hours before you need it. Once it's re-hydrated, slice thinly and squeeze out excess water. I used Danny's recipe to make some mushroom powder. I used 1 dried shitake mushroom and a piece of kombu seaweed. After several minutes with a mortar and pestle. I had a fine powder.

Heat the wok and add 1 tbsp of oil. Let it heat for a few seconds and then add minced garlic, ginger, whites of the scallion and 1 tbs mushroom powder. Stir fry for 10 seconds and then add the sliced shitake mushroom. Once the mushrooms are fragrant add the ground pork, 2 tbs soy sauce, 2 tbs sesame oil and 2 tbs chili oil and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes or until cooked.

Gradually add the cooked rice and mix over medium heat. Add the last 2 tbs of soy sauce and sesame oil. Sprinkle the last tbs of mushroom powder, greens of the scallion and mix thoroughly.
