Better Fried Rice (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 3 tbsp sesame oil

02 - 3 cups of cooked white rice (works best if it's been in the fridge overnight—it won't clump as much!)

03 - 1 small onion, finely chopped

04 - 2 tsp garlic, minced

05 - 1 cup peas and carrots, frozen but thawed out

06 - 1/4 cup soy sauce

07 - 2 eggs, beaten lightly

01 - Warm up your sesame oil in a big skillet or wok on medium-high heat until it's shimmery and hot.

02 - Throw in the garlic, thawed veggies, and onion. Stir them around until they soften up and smell delicious.

03 - Lower the heat to medium, push the veggies to the side of the pan, and pour in your eggs. Stir them gently until cooked through and fluffy.

04 - Now toss your rice and soy sauce into the pan. Stir it constantly so every bit of rice is heated and coated evenly with sauce.

05 - Once it's all steamy, scooped, and mixed to perfection, dish out and enjoy right away.

01 - Cold, leftover rice gives you the best texture—stays fluffy and won't stick together.

02 - Got random veggies sitting in the fridge? Toss them in!

03 - Want it to be more filling? Add tofu, shrimp, or chicken to the mix.
