Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups White rice (cooked and chilled)
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 cup Frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
- 2 large Eggs
- 3 stalks Green onions (sliced)
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 Garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat and set the beef aside in a bowl.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Toss in minced garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant, approximately 30 seconds.
Add the frozen mixed vegetables to the skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until they're tender.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and crack the eggs onto the empty side. Scramble the eggs until they are fully cooked, then mix them together with the vegetables.
Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps with the spatula, and stir everything together.
Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet, mixing it evenly with the rice and vegetables.
Pour soy sauce and sesame oil over the mixture, stirring well to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss in sliced green onions and stir everything one final time.
Remove from heat and serve hot. Enjoy your Ground Beef Fried Rice!
