Instructions

Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add 3 beaten large eggs and scramble gently for 2 minutes until just set but still soft, then transfer eggs to a plate.
Step 2: In the same skillet, add diced 1 medium carrot and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally until slightly tender.
Step 3: Add 4 cups cooked jasmine rice, 1/2 cup thawed frozen peas, and 3 sliced scallions to the skillet. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until heated through and rice grains separate.
Step 4: Return the scrambled eggs to the skillet, pour in 2 tbsp soy sauce, and season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Stir well for 2 minutes until everything is combined and fragrant.
Step 5: Remove from heat and serve immediately while warm.
