Instructions

Cook the rice ahead of time according to package instructions. When cool, transfer to a sealed container in the fridge to chill for a couple hours/overnight.*
Dice carrots, bell pepper, onion, and mince garlic.
In a large wok or pan over medium-high heat, add 1 tsp. sesame oil. Let heat for a minute.
When oil is hot, carefully add onion, carrots, and bell pepper. Stirring often, sauté for about 5-7 minutes.
Add peas and corn. Cook for 2 minutes.
Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
Add rice and 3 Tbsp. tamari (more/less as needed). Stirring occasionally, cook for about 5 minutes. Serve with additional tamari or sesame seeds if desired.

Notes

*Chilling the rice: You can skip the chilling step, but I find it results in better (and less mushy) fried rice.
For gluten-free: Use GF tamari.
