Fried Rice Recipe

Ingredients

- 2 cups of cooked rice (preferably chilled) - 2 tablespoons vegetable oil - 1 onion, finely chopped - 2 cloves garlic, minced - 1 cup mixed vegetables (like peas, carrots, and corn) - 2 eggs, beaten - 2 tablespoons soy sauce - 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional) - Salt and pepper to taste - Green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. **Prepare the Ingredients:** Ensure all ingredients are prepped and ready to go. Leftover or chilled rice works best. 2. **Heat the Oil:** In a large pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. 3. **Cook the Aromatics:** Add the chopped onion and garlic to the pan and sauté until fragrant and translucent. 4. **Add Vegetables:** Add the mixed vegetables to the pan and cook until they are tender. 5. **Scramble the Eggs:** Push the vegetables to one side of the pan and pour the beaten eggs on the other side. Scramble the eggs until they are fully cooked. 6. **Combine Everything:** Mix the scrambled eggs with the vegetables. Add the cooked rice and stir well to combine. 7. **Season the Rice:** Pour the soy sauce and oyster sauce over the rice mixture. Stir constantly to ensure the rice is evenly coated with sauces. Season with salt and pepper to taste. 8. **Final Touches:** Continue to cook for another few minutes, allowing the rice to get slightly crispy. Garnish with chopped green onions. 9. **Serve:** Serve hot as a main dish or a side.
