Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Rice

    Ensure the cooked rice is cooled and preferably a day old for best texture.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    Dice the onion, carrots, and slice the green onions. Make sure everything is ready before starting to cook.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large frying pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Sauté Onions and Carrots

    Add the diced onion and carrots to the hot oil. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onions are translucent and the carrots are tender.

  3. 5

    Add Peas

    Stir in the frozen peas and cook for an additional 2 minutes until they are heated through.

  4. 6

    Scramble the Eggs

    Push the vegetable mixture to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs into the other side and scramble until fully cooked.

  5. 7

    Combine Rice

    Add the cooked rice to the pan, breaking up any clumps. Stir everything together to combine.

  6. 8

    Season the Rice

    Pour the soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper over the rice mixture. Stir-fry for another 3-5 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.

  7. 9

    Finish with Green Onions

    Finally, stir in the sliced green onions and remove from heat. Serve hot.
