• 2 stalks Green onions, chopped
• 2 large Eggs
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Crack the eggs into the skillet, and scramble them until fully cooked. Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and minced garlic. Cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Stir in the frozen peas and carrots mix, and cook for another 2 minutes until heated through.

Step 6

Increase the heat to high, and add the cooked rice to the skillet. Break up any clumps with a spatula, and stir well to combine.

Step 7

Drizzle the sesame oil and soy sauce evenly over the rice, and mix thoroughly to ensure even seasoning.

Step 8

Add the cooked scrambled eggs back into the skillet, along with chopped green onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well to combine.

Step 9

Cook for 2-3 more minutes, stirring frequently, until everything is heated through and slightly crispy on the bottom.
