A flavorful and easy-to-make fried rice recipe inspired by hibachi-style cooking, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Using sesame oil adds a nutty flavor that enhances the dish.
Add the diced onion, carrot, and peas to the skillet and sauté until softened.
Cut the vegetables into small, uniform pieces for even cooking.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and pour the beaten eggs into the other side. Scramble the eggs until cooked.
Scramble the eggs gently to keep them fluffy.
Mix the cooked rice into the skillet with the vegetables and eggs.
Use cold, day-old rice to prevent clumping.
Add the butter and soy sauce, stirring well to combine and heat through.
Adjust the soy sauce to taste, adding more if needed.
Serve the fried rice hot, garnished with optional green onions or sesame seeds.
For a touch of freshness, sprinkle chopped green onions on top before serving.
