Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop the green onions, garlic, and carrot finely. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Rice

    If using leftover rice, ensure it is cold and separate any clumps.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Eggs

    In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Beat the eggs in a bowl and pour them into the skillet. Scramble until fully cooked, then remove and set aside.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil and sauté the garlic and chopped carrots for about 2 minutes until fragrant. Add the green onions and frozen peas, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes.

  3. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the cooked rice to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Stir well to combine and ensure the rice is heated through.

  4. 6

    Add Crab and Sauce

    Gently fold in the crab meat. In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Pour this sauce over the rice mixture and stir to combine evenly.

  5. 7

    Finish Cooking

    Cook everything together for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Finally, add the scrambled eggs back into the skillet and mix well.
