Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups White rice (cooked, preferably chilled)
- 1 cup Carrots (diced)
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 3 stalks Green onions (finely chopped)
- 2 large Eggs (beaten)
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground white pepper
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos (soy-free alternative to soy sauce)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Cooking oil (neutral, such as avocado or vegetable oil)
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Pour in the beaten eggs, scrambling them until fully cooked. Remove the eggs from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the diced carrots and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Stir in the frozen peas and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the vegetables are tender and heated through.
Increase the heat to high and add the cooked, chilled rice to the skillet. Break up any clumps with a spatula and stir well to combine.
Drizzle the coconut aminos and sesame oil over the rice, then sprinkle with salt and ground white pepper. Toss everything together to coat the rice evenly.
Add the scrambled eggs back to the skillet along with the chopped green onions. Stir gently to incorporate everything.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is heated through and lightly crisped.
Remove from heat and serve immediately. Enjoy your soy-free white fried rice!
