Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- ½ cup diced carrots
- ½ cup diced sweet yellow onion
- 2 large cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 4 cups cooked cold day-old white rice
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ½ cup frozen peas
- 1 cup kimchi roughly chopped
- 2 green onions thinly sliced
- 2 fried or soft-boiled eggs optional
Instructions
- Heat a large heavy bottomed skillet (or wok) over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and sesame oil. When the oil is hot, add the carrots and onion. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onions are beginning to brown.
- Next add the garlic and ginger. Sir and cook for an additional minute.
- Add the rice and soy sauce. Stir and saute for another 3-4 minutes or until the rice is lightly browned and beginning to crisp.
- Add the frozen peas and chopped kimchi. Cook, stirring occasionally, for another 3-4 minutes or until the kimchi is warmed through.
- Lastly, add the green onions and stir to combine. Serve the fried rice topped with an egg and garnished with sesame seeds, additional green onion, and/or gochugaru.
Notes
- This recipe is only lightly spicy. For truly spicy fried rice, there are many options. Sprinkle in some gochugaru, which is the same Korean chili flakes that you'll find in the kimchi. Stir in some chili garlic sauce or gochujang sauce when you add the soy sauce. Or add your favorite sriracha when serving.
