A delightful twist on the classic fried rice, bringing out rich flavors and vibrant textures.
Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them until smooth.
Whisking the eggs well ensures a uniform texture when cooked.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and scramble the eggs until just set. Remove and set aside.
Avoid overcooking the eggs to keep them soft and tender.
In the same skillet, melt the butter and sauté the chopped onion, carrot, and green onion until softened.
Cooking the vegetables in butter enhances their natural sweetness.
Add the steamed rice to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables.
Break up any clumps of rice for even cooking.
Return the scrambled eggs to the skillet and mix with the rice and vegetables.
Mixing the eggs in at this stage ensures they are evenly distributed.
Sprinkle the sesame seeds, salt, and pepper over the mixture and stir well.
Toasted sesame seeds add a nutty flavor to the dish.
Drizzle the soy sauce over the rice and stir until everything is well coated and heated through.
Add soy sauce gradually to adjust the flavor to your preference.
Serve the fried rice warm, garnished with additional green onion if desired.
Serving immediately ensures the best flavor and texture.
