Fried Rice

Heat the canola oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. When hot, add the onion and carrot. Cook, stirring often, for 3 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften.

Add the garlic and frozen peas and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.

Push the vegetables to one side of the pan. Add the butter to the empty side of the pan. Once the butter is melted, add the eggs to the butter side of the pan and cook, stirring gently, until scrambled.

Mix the scrambled eggs into the veggies and then add the cooked rice, soy sauce and sesame oil. Cook, stirring, until rice is heated through.

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the chopped green onions if using. Serve.
