Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Ingredients

Begin by preparing all the ingredients. Chop the green onions, dice the carrots, and have the cooked rice ready. If using leftover rice, ensure it’s cooled and separated.

2

Whisk the Eggs

In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well combined. Set aside.

Cooking

3

Heat the Oil

In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

4

Scramble the Eggs

Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet. Stir gently and cook until they are just set. Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside.

5

Stir-fry the Vegetables

In the same skillet, add the chopped green onions and diced carrots. Stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.

6

Add Rice and Peas

Add the cooked rice and frozen peas to the skillet. Stir everything together, breaking apart any clumps of rice.

7

Season the Rice

Pour the soy sauce over the rice mixture, add salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure the rice is evenly coated.

8

Combine with Scrambled Eggs

Finally, add the scrambled eggs back to the skillet. Stir everything together until heated through and well combined.
