Ingredients

• 4 cups Cooked white rice
• 1 cup Carrots, finely diced
• 0.5 cup Frozen peas
• 2 large Eggs
• 3 Scallions, thinly sliced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce (tamari)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons Neutral cooking oil (such as vegetable or avocado oil)
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Prepare white rice in advance and allow it to cool completely, preferably overnight, to prevent it from becoming mushy during frying.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of neutral cooking oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat.

Step 3

Crack the eggs into the skillet and scramble them until fully cooked. Break the eggs into small pieces using a spatula, then remove them from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of neutral cooking oil to the skillet, followed by the minced garlic. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the diced carrots to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly softened.

Step 6

Stir in the frozen peas and cook for an additional 2 minutes until heated through.

Step 7

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the cooled cooked rice to the skillet. Use a spatula to break up any clumps of rice and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, ensuring all ingredients are well mixed.

Step 8

Drizzle the gluten-free soy sauce (tamari) and sesame oil over the rice. Sprinkle in the salt and ground black pepper, and stir well to evenly coat the rice.

Step 9

Return the scrambled eggs to the skillet and add the sliced scallions. Stir fry for 1-2 more minutes to incorporate everything together.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot and enjoy your Gluten-Free White Fried Rice!
