Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and dice the carrot and bell pepper into small, uniform pieces. Rinse the peas if using fresh. Chop the green onions, separating the white parts from the green tops. Mince the garlic and ginger.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    Ensure that the jasmine rice is properly cooked and cooled. It's best to use rice that was cooked earlier and stored in the refrigerator, as this helps to prevent clumping.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a large pan or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Sauté Aromatics

    Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

  3. 5

    Cook Vegetables

    Add the diced carrots, bell pepper, and peas to the pan. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.

  4. 6

    Add Rice

    Add the cooked jasmine rice to the pan. Gently stir to combine with the vegetables.

  5. 7

    Season the Rice

    Pour in the soy sauce, and add salt and black pepper to taste. Stir everything together, ensuring the rice is evenly coated.

  6. 8

    Finish with Green Onions

    Add the white parts of the green onions and the remaining sesame oil. Stir for an additional 2 minutes.

Serving

  1. 9

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the fried rice from heat. Transfer to serving plates and sprinkle with sesame seeds and the green tops of the green onions. Serve warm.
