Prepare all ingredients by chopping and slicing vegetables and having all items measured and ready to go.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced carrot and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until slightly tender.
Add the frozen peas, sliced green onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the wok. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes until the peas are heated through and the garlic is fragrant.
Push the vegetables to one side of the wok, then add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the empty side. Crack the eggs into the oil and scramble them gently until they are just set.
Mix the scrambled eggs with the vegetables in the wok.
Add the cooked jasmine rice to the wok and break up any clumps using a spatula. Stir everything continually to mix the rice thoroughly with the vegetables and eggs.
Drizzle the gluten-free soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice and stir well, ensuring that the rice is evenly coated with the sauce.
Season with salt and white pepper to taste, and continue to stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes to heat the rice thoroughly and integrate all flavors.
Serve hot with additional green onions as garnish if desired.
