Part 4/7:
Sautéing the Vegetables: Once the oil is hot, toss in the diced carrots and onions. Sauté these for two to three minutes until they begin to soften. Next, add minced garlic cloves and your ginger, cooking for another 30 seconds.
Scrambling the Eggs: Instead of removing the vegetables from the pan, push them to one side and scramble the eggs right next to them. This method saves time and dishes while ensuring a beautifully integrated flavor profile.
Adding Rice and Peas: After the eggs are scrambled, add the cup of peas along with four cups of the cooked rice. Stir everything together for another two to three minutes until all ingredients are heated through.
Flavoring the Fried Rice
The sauce is what gives fried rice its signature flavor and color.
