Delicious Fried Rice Recipe

Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked rice (preferably day-old, cold)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the beaten eggs and scramble until fully cooked. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pan, add the remaining oil. Sauté the onion and garlic until fragrant and slightly golden.
  3. Add the mixed vegetables and cook for 3–4 minutes until tender.
  4. Add the cold rice to the pan. Break up any clumps and stir-fry for about 5 minutes until heated through.
  5. Return the cooked eggs to the pan and mix well.
  6. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), and sesame oil. Stir well to evenly coat the rice.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Toss in the sliced green onions. Stir and cook for another minute.
  9. Serve hot and enjoy!

If you’d like, I can help you adapt this for chicken, shrimp, or veggie-only versions too — just say the word!
