1 green onion, thinly sliced
8 large eggs, divided
1/4 cups oyster sauce or vegetarian oyster sauce
5 cups day-old cooked rice (preferably jasmine)

Add rice mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until egg is cooked and rice is hot, 4 to 5 min. Season with pepper. Divide rice mixture among four plates.
Return pan to heat over medium. Add remaining 1 tsp oil, then crack remaining 4 eggs into pan. Cook, covered, until whites are no longer runny, 2 to 3 min. Top each portion of rice with a fried egg. Sprinkle with green onion, if desired.
