Ingredients

3 cups cooked jasmine rice (preferably day-old)

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or sesame oil for added flavor)

2 large eggs, lightly beaten

1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, and corn)

1/2 cup diced onion

2 cloves garlic, minced

3 tablespoons soy sauce (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)

1 teaspoon sesame oil (for drizzle)

2 green onions, finely chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Prepare Your Ingredients: Make sure your rice is cooked and cooled in advance to prevent clumping. Chop your vegetables, onions, and garlic for easy access.

Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Make sure the pan is hot to achieve that signature fried rice texture.

Scramble the Eggs: Pour the beaten eggs into the pan, swirling to coat the base evenly. Cook until just set, then remove from the pan and chop into small pieces. Set aside.

Sauté Aromatics: Add the diced onion to the pan, cooking until translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Toss in the minced garlic and stir for another minute until fragrant.

Add Mixed Vegetables: Stir in the mixed vegetables, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until they are tender yet crisp.

Fried Rice Time: Add the cold, cooked jasmine rice to the pan. Stir well to combine everything and break apart any clumps of rice.

Season the Rice: Pour in the soy sauce and oyster sauce (if using), mixing thoroughly. Taste and adjust with salt and pepper if needed.

Finish with Egg and Green Onions: Return the scrambled eggs to the pan along with the chopped green onions. Drizzle with sesame oil and give everything a good final toss.

Serve Hot: Serve the fried rice immediately as a main dish or as a side. Enjoy your sizzling stir-fry fried rice!
