Prepare the ingredients by chopping the hot dogs into small bite-sized pieces, mincing the garlic, and slicing the green onions. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat the surface.
Crack the eggs into the skillet and scramble them quickly. Once cooked, remove them from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Toss in the chopped hot dogs and cook for 2-3 minutes until they are lightly browned.
Add the minced garlic and frozen mixed vegetables to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender and evenly heated.
Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps with your spatula or spoon. Stir continuously to combine the ingredients and ensure the rice is evenly heated.
Pour soy sauce over the rice mixture, stirring well to coat all the ingredients. Add sesame oil and a pinch of black pepper for additional flavor. Mix thoroughly.
Return the scrambled eggs to the skillet, breaking them into smaller pieces as you stir them into the mixture.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with sliced green onions. Serve hot and enjoy your Hot Dog Fried Rice!
