This Pao Fan recipe is the ultimate comfort food. With an undeniably rich homemade seafood broth to soak up leftover rice and crispy fried chunks of rice, this dish is food for the soul.
 
Made too much? Save the broth by freezing them in ice cube trays for the next time you need an umami boost. Think almost instant seafood porridge or Hokkien mee.
