Ingredients
Scale
Proteins:
- 200g beef, thinly sliced
- 2 eggs
Base:
- 2 cups cooked rice
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
Seasonings:
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 green onions, chopped
- Salt
- Pepper
Instructions
- Pour 2 tablespoons vegetable oil into a large skillet, heating at medium-high (375°F) for 2 minutes until shimmering.
- Drop 200g thinly sliced beef into the hot pan, searing each piece for 2-3 minutes until golden brown edges appear.
- Slide beef to one side of the skillet, cracking 2 whole eggs into the empty space and scrambling them quickly with a spatula.
- Toss 1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn) into the skillet, stirring constantly for 2-3 minutes until they become bright and slightly tender.
- Add 2 cups pre-cooked rice to the pan, spreading it evenly across the surface and letting it crisp for 1 minute.
- Drizzle 3 tablespoons soy sauce over the rice, using your spatula to fold and integrate all ingredients thoroughly.
- Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper, mixing gently to distribute seasoning across the entire dish.
- Scatter 2 chopped green onions over the top, giving a final quick stir for 30-45 seconds to blend flavors.
- Transfer immediately to serving plates, ensuring each portion gets a balanced mix of beef, vegetables, and rice.
Notes
- Always use day-old cold rice for the best texture and to prevent clumping.
- Cutting beef into thin, uniform slices helps ensure even and quick cooking.
- Get your wok or pan super hot before adding ingredients to achieve that classic stir-fry sear.
- For a gluten-free version, swap regular soy sauce with tamari or coconut aminos.
