•1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, and corn)

Instruções

1.Prepare the Rice:

Cook the jasmine rice the day before or use leftover rice. Spread the rice out on a baking sheet to cool and dry out in the refrigerator overnight.

2.Cook the Eggs:

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beaten eggs and scramble until fully cooked. Remove from the wok and set aside.

3.Stir-Fry the Aromatics:

In the same wok, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and stir-fry for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant and translucent.

4.Add the Vegetables:

Add the mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, and corn) to the wok and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.

5.Combine Rice and Sauces:

Add the cooked rice to the wok. Break up any clumps and stir-fry to combine with the vegetables. Pour in the soy sauce, fish sauce, and sesame oil. Continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the rice is evenly coated with the sauces.

6. Finish the Dish:

Add the scrambled eggs back into the wok, along with the chopped green onions. Stir-fry for another minute to combine everything thoroughly. Season with white pepper and salt to taste.

7. Serve:

Serve the fried rice hot, garnished with additional chopped green onions if desired.
