Step 1
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 2
Add pork in a single layer. Don't stir for 3 minutes — let edges caramelize and brown deeply.
Step 3
Toss pork, breaking up clumps. Sprinkle five-spice and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Step 4
Pour in soy sauce, fish sauce, and sugar. Stir until pork is glazed and glossy, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Step 5
Crack eggs into the same skillet. Fry until whites set but yolks still jiggle, about 3 minutes. Season with salt.
Step 6
Divide rice between two bowls. Top with pork, a fried egg, and scallions. Serve hot.
