Classic Egg Fried Rice

By James Rotanson

Dinner · Easy · 15 min · 9 ingredients

A quick and flavorful way to use leftover rice, combined with fresh vegetables and savory soy sauce.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked white rice, chilled
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 0.5 small onion, diced
  • 0.5 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 green onions, sliced

Steps

  1. Whisk eggs in a small bowl. Heat 1/2 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add eggs and scramble until just set. Remove and set aside.
  2. Increase heat to high. Add the remaining oil to the skillet. Sauté onion, garlic, and frozen peas and carrots for 2-3 minutes until softened.
  3. Add the chilled rice to the skillet. Break up any clumps with a spatula and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the rice is heated through and slightly toasted.
  4. Drizzle soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
  5. Fold in the cooked eggs and green onions. Toss for 1 minute and serve immediately.
