Instructions
Begin by preparing all the ingredients. Finely chop the green onions and garlic. Dice the carrot into small cubes.

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Scramble the eggs until fully cooked, then mix them with the carrot and garlic.
Add the cooked jasmine rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps with a spatula.
Pour the soy sauce, fish sauce, and oyster sauce over the rice and mix thoroughly to coat the rice evenly.
