Ingredients
Based on single portion
2-1⁄2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1⁄2 teaspoon sesame oil
1-1⁄2 cups fresh or frozen and thawed green peas
4 scallions, chopped
1 medium carrot, grated
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 to 4 cups cooked long-grain rice that has been refrigerated
3 large eggs
soy sauce, to taste




Preparation
Step 1
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and the sesame oil in a large, preferably nonstick, skillet or wok over medium heat, add the peas, scallions, carrot, and garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring often.
Step 2
Add the rice and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until heated through, stirring often.
Step 3
In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs.
Step 4
Move the rice to the perimeter of the skillet and add the remaining 1⁄2 tablespoon of oil in the center. Pour the eggs into the center and stir constantly, or until they are soft-cooked. Break up the eggs and stir into the rice, while cooking for 1 to 2 minutes more, or until all ingredients are heated through.
Step 5
Add soy sauce, to taste, and stir.
*TIP - Boil and refrigerate the rice ahead of time. Ensure that all the moisture is removed prior to mixing and frying with other ingredients in the hot oils to avoid splatters and to crisp the rice kernels off.

Note - CAUTION the heated mixture and cooking pans will be super HOT, please take care.
