Ingredients
2 cups cooked white rice (preferably chilled)
2 eggs
1/2 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, bell peppers)
2 green onions, chopped
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking oil
Instructions
Heat a small amount of cooking oil in a large pan or wok over medium heat.
Crack the eggs into the pan and scramble them until they are fully cooked. Remove the scrambled eggs from the pan and set them aside.
In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed and sauté the mixed vegetables until they are tender-crisp.
Add the chilled cooked rice to the pan and stir-fry it with the vegetables for a few minutes, breaking up any clumps of rice with a spatula.
Pour the soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice and vegetables. Mix everything together until the rice is evenly coated with the sauces.
Add the scrambled eggs back into the pan and toss everything together until the eggs are distributed throughout the rice.
Season the egg fried rice with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the chopped green onions for added freshness and flavor.
Cook for another minute or two to heat everything through, then remove the pan from heat.
Transfer the egg fried rice to a serving dish and garnish with additional green onions if desired.
