Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups cooked jasmine rice
- 2 pieces sausages (e.g., pork or chicken, sliced)
- 1 medium onion (diced)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 medium carrot (diced)
- 1 cup peas (frozen or fresh)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for cooking)
- 2 stalks green onions (sliced)
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
Add the sliced sausages to the skillet and cook until they are browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, followed by the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and softened.
Add the diced carrot and peas to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Crack the eggs into the empty space and scramble them until fully cooked, then mix them into the vegetables.
Return the cooked sausages to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables.
Add the cooked jasmine rice to the skillet. Break up any clumps with a spatula and toss everything together.
Drizzle the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil over the rice mixture. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Stir well to evenly coat the rice in the sauces.
Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld and the rice to fry.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve hot and enjoy!
