Instructions
- Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, then add 3 beaten large eggs and cook, gently stirring, until just set but still soft, about 1-2 minutes. Remove eggs to a plate.
- Step 2: Add remaining 1 tbsp vegetable oil to the pan, then sauté 2 cloves minced garlic and 1 medium diced carrot for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.
- Step 3: Add 3 cups cooked white rice and 1/2 cup frozen peas to the pan, stirring constantly to break up clumps and heat through, about 3-4 minutes.
- Step 4: Return the scrambled eggs to the pan along with 3 sliced green onions, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil, and 1/4 tsp ground black pepper. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.
- Step 5: Taste and adjust soy sauce if needed, then serve hot.
