I used various seasonings such as doubanjiang to create an umami taste without using stock powder, meat, or any processed products to create this tasty fried rice. My family liked it, so I posted the recipe for my own reference.

Adjust the seasonings to taste. Instead of fresh garlic, you could use tubed type or powdered garlic. Atsu-age tofu is a good alternative.for thin abura-age, Recipe by miyuki12
