Method
Cook the rice in plenty of boiling salted water for 12 minutes, drain it and spread it on a plate so it dries out and cools.
Cut the chicken into small cubes. Slice the carrot thinly, shred the cabbage, chop the onion, garlic and ginger and slice the spring onion.
Heat half of the oil in a wok or large pan over high heat and stir-fry the chicken for 5 minutes until golden and cooked through. Take it out of the pan.
Add the rest of the oil and stir-fry the onion, garlic, ginger, carrot and cabbage for 4 minutes. Push the vegetables aside, crack in the egg and scramble it for 1 minute.
Put the rice and the chicken back in with the soy sauce and the honey and stir-fry for 3 minutes until hot and glossy. Scatter the spring onion on top and serve with the sriracha on the side.
