Ingredients

Scale

  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.

  3. Stir in the mixed vegetables and cook for 3-4 minutes until heated through.
  4. Push the veggies to one side and scramble the beaten eggs in the empty space until fully cooked.
  5. Add the cooked rice, breaking up any clumps to ensure it is well-coated.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a splash of sesame oil at the end. Use day-old rice for the best texture and avoid overcrowding the skillet.
