Abalone fried rice

Fried rice doesn’t get better than this. Fresh, wok-seared abalone, sweet and tender with a healthy dose of chilli. We were lucky enough to dive for wild black-lip abalone on the west coast of Tassie where there are more abalone than people. It definitely gave us a newfound respect for abalone divers.
