Ingredients

  • 3 cups Cooked white rice (chilled)
  • 3 large Eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
  • 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
  • 0.5 cups Frozen peas and carrots(optional)
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs with a pinch of salt.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the eggs and scramble quickly until just set. Remove eggs from the pan and set aside.

    Wipe the pan and add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the garlic and white parts of the green onions (and frozen vegetables if using). Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

    Add the chilled rice to the pan, breaking up any large clumps with a spatula. Fry for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the rice is heated through and slightly toasted.

  5. 5

    Drizzle the soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice. Stir well to coat evenly.

  6. 6

    Fold the scrambled eggs back into the rice and add the green parts of the onions.

  7. 7

    Toss everything together for one more minute and serve hot.
