Fried Rice (China) Recipe

Chinese · Main course · 20 min total

A quick and flavorful Chinese-style fried rice made with leftover rice, eggs, vegetables, and soy sauce. Perfect for using up leftovers and ready in minutes.

Ingredients

• 3 cups cooked and cooled jasmine rice (preferably day-old)
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
• 1 cup frozen peas and carrots, thawed
• 3 green onions, thinly sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/4 teaspoon white pepper (or black pepper)

Instructions

1. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add beaten eggs and scramble until just set. Transfer to a plate.
2. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the wok. Add garlic and white parts of green onions; stir-fry for 15 seconds.
3. Add peas and carrots; stir-fry for 1 minute.
4. Add rice, breaking up clumps. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until heated through.
5. Drizzle soy sauce and sesame oil over rice; toss to combine. Add scrambled eggs and green onion tops; toss briefly.
6. Sprinkle with white pepper and serve immediately.

Tips

• Use cold, day-old rice for best texture; fresh rice can become mushy.
• Feel free to add cooked chicken, shrimp, or ham for a non-vegetarian version.
• Adjust soy sauce to taste; add a pinch of sugar if desired.
