  3. Add white rice to the pan, mix well with squid and seasoning.
  4. Pour in oyster sauce, sweet soy sauce, soy sauce, and chili sauce (if using). Stir well until the rice is evenly mixed with the seasoning and squid.
  5. Add salt and ground pepper, stir again until all ingredients are fully combined and the flavor is evenly distributed.
  6. Push the rice to the edge of the pan to create an empty space in the center of the pan. Pour the beaten egg in the center of the empty space.
  7. Let the egg sit for a while until half cooked, then mix well with the rice and squid. Make sure the egg is evenly mixed with the rice and seasoning.
  8. Finally, add the sliced spring onions, stir briefly until evenly mixed, and turn off the heat.
  9. Serve the squid fried rice in a serving plate, garnish with fried shallots as topping.
