Augmentations

  • This tends to be made for two nights so we cook 2 cups of rice. You can do more if you want.
  • You can add Chinese Sausage or frozen shrimp as other proteins

Instructions

Step 1

Heat oil in a wok or nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add in garlic, ginger and the white portion of the green onions. Cook until fragrant.

Step 2

Add carrots & peas, cook until heated and softened.

Step 3

Add rice (and protein if using) continue to cook until rice slightly crisped and brown. Don’t stir too much, you do want to get a little bit of caramelization.

Step 4

Create a opening in the middle of the pan and add eggs. Cook them till they are scrambled.

Step 5

Add in soy sauce & sesame oil.

Step 6

Garnish with remaining green onion and sesame seeds if desired.
