Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked jasmine rice (preferably day-old)

2 large eggs

1 cup mixed vegetables (e.g., peas, carrots, and corn)

2 tbsp soy sauce (adjust to taste)

1 tbsp sesame oil (or any cooking oil)

2 green onions, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 tsp ginger, grated (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Heat a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium heat and add a small amount of oil. Pour in the eggs and scramble until just set. Remove from the pan and set aside.

    Sauté Vegetables: In the same pan, add sesame oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger (if using), sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Then, add the mixed vegetables and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender-crisp.

      Fry the Rice: Increase the heat to high, then add the cooked jasmine rice to the pan. Stir well to mix with the vegetables and cook until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.

        Season: Pour the soy sauce over the rice mixture. Stir to combine thoroughly, allowing the rice to absorb the flavors. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper, or more soy sauce if desired.

          Combine with Eggs: Gently fold the scrambled eggs back into the rice and vegetable mixture, breaking up any large chunks of egg.

            Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle the chopped green onions over the top and toss everything together briefly. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired. Serve hot and enjoy your Quick Veggie Fried Rice!
