Fried Rice Recipe

Ingredients

3 Tbsp. butter, divided

2 eggs, whisked

2 medium carrots, peeled and diced

1 small white onion, diced

1/2 cup frozen peas

3 cloves garlic, minced

salt and pepper

4 cups cooked and chilled rice (I prefer short-grain white rice)

3 green onions, thinly sliced

3-4 Tbsp. soy sauce, or more to taste

2 tsp. oyster sauce (optional)

1/2 tsp. toasted sesame oil

Instructions

Heat 1/2 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until melted. 

Add egg, and cook until scrambled, stirring occasionally. Remove egg, and transfer to a separate plate.

Add an additional 1 tablespoon butter to the pan and heat until melted. 

Add carrots, onion, peas and garlic, and season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. 

Saute for about 5 minutes or until the onion and carrots are soft. 

Increase heat to high, add in the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter, and stir until melted. 

Immediately add the rice, green onions, soy sauce and oyster sauce (if using), and stir until combined. 

Continue stirring for an additional 3 minutes to fry the rice. 

Then add in the eggs and stir to combine. Add the sesame oil, stir to combine, and remove from heat.
