So Easy Egg Fried Rice

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked rice (preferably chilled)
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsp oil (vegetable or sesame)
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn) – optional
  • 2-3 tbsp soy sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Spring onions or cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large pan or wok over medium heat.
  2. Add chopped onion and garlic; sauté until fragrant and lightly golden.
  3. Push the onions to one side, crack the eggs into the pan, and scramble until fully cooked.
  4. Add the cooked rice and mixed vegetables (if using) to the pan. Stir-fry everything together for 3-5 minutes.
  5. Drizzle soy sauce over the rice, season with salt and pepper, and mix well to coat evenly.
  6. Cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
  7. Garnish with chopped spring onions or cilantro and serve hot.

If you want, I can also make a super quick 5-minute version that’s even easier with fewer steps. Do you want me to do that?
