Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons light olive oil
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 1/2 white onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 3 cups rice (cooked)
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • dash pepper

Instructions
 

  • Finely dice the white onion. Mince the garlic cloves. Beat the eggs in a bowl.
    If the rice is not already cooked, cook it according to package instructions. For best results, use day-old rice.
    In a small bowl, combine the rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, salt, and a dash of pepper. Stir well to combine.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of light olive oil in a large skillet, frying pan, or large wok over medium-high heat.
    Stir in the frozen peas and carrots, cooking until they are heated through. Add the chopped white onion to the pan and sauté until translucent.
    Add minced garlic and continue to sauté for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Push the vegetables to the outside of the pan and dump in the cold rice. Gently press down and spread the rice. Allow to cook for a minute until lightly toasted. Flip the rice over and toast for another minute.
    Push the rice and vegetables to the side of the pan and add a little butter. Turn the heat to medium heat. Then, pour in the eggs and continually scramble the eggs with a spatula. Once they are cooked, pour in the sauce and gently stir all the ingredients until they are well combined. Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed. Then serve and enjoy!

Notes

Cooked Rice: Use day-old rice for the best texture. Freshly cooked rice can be too moist and may result in a sticky fried rice.
Preparation: Ensure all ingredients are chopped and ready before you start cooking, as stir-frying is a quick process.
Soy Sauce Intensity: Adjust the amount of soy sauce based on your preference. You can start with the recommended amount and add more if needed.
Seasoning Adjustment: Taste the fried rice before serving and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You can add more salt, soy sauce, or pepper according to your taste.
Optional Garnishes: Garnish with chopped green onions, cilantro, or a sprinkle of sesame seeds for added flavor and freshness. If you prefer a bit of heat, you can add a dash of sriracha or red pepper flakes during the seasoning stage.
