- Step 1 of 6
Dice the carrot small, slice the scallions, mince the garlic, and beat the eggs. Cold day-old rice works best, so break up any clumps with your fingers.
- Step 2 of 6
Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat, pour in the eggs, and scramble into soft curds, about 1 minute. Slide onto a plate.
- Step 3 of 6
Add the remaining oil and stir-fry the carrot for 2 minutes, then add the peas and garlic for 1 minute more.
- Step 4 of 6
Add the rice and press it into the hot pan, letting it sizzle undisturbed for 1 minute before tossing. Repeat twice until the rice is hot and lightly toasted.
- Step 5 of 6
Return the eggs, add the soy sauce and sesame oil, and toss until every grain is coated.
- Step 6 of 6
Fold in the scallions and serve straight from the pan.
