Instructions

1. Bring the day-old or frozen rice to room temperature, or cook fresh rice and spread it thinly on a parchment-lined tray to cool.
2. Season both sides of the steak with the salt and pepper and leave it out for 20–30 minutes to reach room temperature.
3. Mix the smoked soy sauce, 2 Tbsp mentsuyu and 1 clove of minced garlic in a bowl for the steak sauce.
4. Mince 2 cloves of garlic. Heat 2 Tbsp butter in a pan over medium-low heat, add the garlic and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant without browning.
5. Put the rice in a large bowl, add the garlic butter, 2 tsp mentsuyu, the salt and the pepper, and toss gently.
6. Heat a carbon steel or cast iron pan over medium-high heat, add 1 Tbsp oil, then sear the steak for 3–4 minutes per side, pressing it down, until it reaches 54.4°C (130°F) internally.
7. While the steak sears, heat 1 Tbsp butter in another pan over medium heat, stir-fry the rice until hot, then spread it flat and leave it undisturbed until the bottom is crisp.
8. Wrap the steak in foil and rest it for 2–3 minutes, then cut it into ½-inch cubes and toss them in the steak sauce.
9. Place the steak cubes on the crispy rice, drizzle with any leftover sauce, and top with the chopped green onion and crushed fried garlic chips.
