Cuisine: Chinese
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked rice
- 1 cup mixed vegetables
- 2 eggs
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 2 cups of cooked rice, 1 cup of mixed vegetables (such as peas, carrots, and corn), 2 eggs, 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 green onions (chopped), and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil.
- In a large skillet or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat. Allow the oil to become hot but not smoking.
- Add the mixed vegetables to the skillet and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender and heated through. If using frozen vegetables, ensure they are fully thawed before adding.
- Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and crack the 2 eggs into the empty space. Scramble the eggs until fully cooked, then mix them into the vegetables.
- Once the eggs are cooked, add the cooked rice to the skillet. Use a spatula to break up any clumps of rice and combine it with the vegetables and eggs.
- Pour the 3 tablespoons of soy sauce over the rice mixture. Stir well to ensure that the rice is evenly coated with the sauce and the flavors are combined.
- Continue to stir-fry the rice for another 3-4 minutes, allowing it to heat through and the flavors to meld together.
- Finally, add the chopped green onions and stir them into the rice just before serving. This will add a fresh flavor and a pop of color to the dish.
- Remove the skillet from heat and serve the Chinese rice hot, garnished with additional green onions if desired. Enjoy your meal!
Tips
- Use day-old rice for the best texture: Slightly dried-out rice prevents clumping and absorbs flavors more effectively.
- Ensure your wok or skillet is hot before adding ingredients to achieve that authentic "wok hei" flavor.
- Cut vegetables into uniform, small pieces to ensure even cooking.
- Don't overcrowd the pan—this helps vegetables maintain their crisp texture.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a small amount of garlic or ginger when stir-frying vegetables.
- Use a non-stick pan or well-seasoned wok to prevent rice from sticking.
- Experiment with protein additions like diced chicken, shrimp, or tofu for variety.
