Instructions

Cook Eggs: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok, scramble eggs, and set aside.
Sauté Aromatics: Sauté onion and garlic until fragrant.
Stir-Fry Rice: Add rice to the pan, stir-fry until heated through.
Combine: Add eggs back to the pan, along with soy sauce, sesame oil, pepper, and green onions. Mix well.
Adjust Seasoning: Taste and add salt if needed. Serve hot.

Notes

Use cold, leftover rice for best texture—fresh rice will turn mushy.
Add frozen peas, carrots, or cooked shrimp for a more filling variation.
A hot wok and quick stir-fry technique are key to authentic flavor.
