Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Dice the carrot, green bell pepper, and onion into small pieces. Mince the garlic. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Eggs

    In a bowl, beat the two eggs until well mixed. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Rice

    Ensure you have 4 cups of cooked rice. It's best if the rice is a day old, as it fries better.

  4. 4

    Chop Green Onions

    Chop the green onions into small rings for garnish.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of sesame oil over medium heat.

  2. 6

    Cook the Eggs

    Add the beaten eggs to the pan and scramble until fully cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. 7

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same pan, add the diced onions, garlic, carrots, and green bell pepper. Sauté for about 3-5 minutes until they start to soften.

  4. 8

    Add Peas and Rice

    Add the green peas and cooked rice to the pan. Stir well to combine and cook for another 3-4 minutes, allowing the rice to fry slightly.

  5. 9

    Season the Rice

    Drizzle the soy sauce over the rice mixture. Season with salt and black pepper. Stir well to ensure even seasoning.

  6. 10

    Combine Everything

    Add the scrambled eggs back into the pan, mixing everything together for another 2 minutes.

  7. 11

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
