Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Day-old cooked rice
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup Frozen peas and carrots
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing your ingredients: mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the green onions, separating the white parts from the green tops.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Crack the eggs into a bowl, lightly beat them, and pour into the skillet. Scramble the eggs until just cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and the white parts of the green onions. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the frozen peas and carrots to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they are cooked through.
Add the day-old cooked rice to the skillet. Break up any clumps with a spatula and stir-fry for about 5 minutes until the rice is heated through.
Drizzle the soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice. Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients and evenly coat the rice.
Return the scrambled eggs to the skillet and gently fold them into the rice mixture.
Remove from heat and garnish with the green tops of the chopped green onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade fried rice with egg.
