Ingredients
- 3 cups Cooked jasmine or short-grain rice
- 1 cup Kimchi
- 2 tablespoons Kimchi juice
- 2 tablespoons Gluten-free tamari sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 4 Green onions, sliced
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Carrot, diced
- 0.5 cup Frozen peas
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Instructions
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat lightly. Add the eggs to the pan and scramble until cooked through. Remove the scrambled eggs from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the diced carrot and cook for 2-3 minutes until tender.
Stir in the kimchi and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the peas and cook for 1 additional minute.
Add the cooked rice to the pan and break up any clumps with a spoon. Stir in the kimchi juice, tamari sauce, and sesame oil.
Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice is heated through and slightly crispy, about 5 minutes.
Add the scrambled eggs back to the pan and mix well.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste, then toss in the sliced green onions.
Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced nori sheets, if using.
Serve hot and enjoy your gluten-free kimchi fried rice!
