Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Jasmine rice
- 2 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast or shrimp (optional)
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Cooking oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then place it in the rice cooker with 2 cups of water. Cook the rice according to your rice cooker’s settings.
While the rice is cooking, prepare the stir-fry components. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Set aside.
Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and leave it in the rice cooker.
Turn your rice cooker to the ‘cook’ or ‘heat’ mode (depending on the model) to use it like a skillet. Add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil into the rice cooker insert.
Add minced garlic to the rice cooker and stir for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Push the garlic aside and crack the eggs directly into the rice cooker. Scramble the eggs gently and cook them until they are soft and mostly cooked through.
Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables and optional cooked chicken or shrimp, mixing everything together with the eggs and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are heated through.
Add the cooked rice back into the rice cooker and pour in the soy sauce mixture. Use a spatula to stir everything together thoroughly so the rice is evenly coated in the sauce.
Season the fried rice with salt and black pepper to taste, and stir in the chopped green onions.
Turn off the rice cooker and keep the lid closed for 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld together. Serve hot and enjoy!
