Prepare the crispy rice by spreading the cooked white rice onto a baking sheet in a thin, even layer. Let it dry out at room temperature for at least 3 hours or overnight for best results.
In a large pot, bring the chicken stock to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the carrots, snow peas, mushrooms, and bamboo shoots. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the shrimp and scallops to the pot and simmer for an additional 3β4 minutes, or until the seafood is just cooked through.
Stir in the soy sauce, white pepper, and salt. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Slowly stir this mixture into the soup to slightly thicken it. Reduce the heat to low and keep the soup warm while you fry the rice.
In a deep saucepan or wok, heat the vegetable oil to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Break the dried rice into small pieces and carefully add them to the hot oil in batches. Fry until golden and crispy, about 1β2 minutes, and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
Ladle the hot soup into bowls and top each serving with a generous piece of crispy rice. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately to enjoy the dramatic 'sizzle' effect.
