Ingredients

- 4 cloves garlic minced
- ½ small onion finely diced
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs beaten
- ½ cup frozen peas
- ½ cup diced carrots
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil optional
- salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the onion and carrot and sauté for 3 minutes until soft. Add the garlic and cook for a further minute.
- Stir in the cooled rice. Break up any rice clumps and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes.
- Pour in the beaten eggs, and cook, stirring, until scrambled.
- Add in the soy sauce and continue stir-frying for 2-3 minutes. Optionally, add sesame oil for extra flavor. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
