Fried rice is a popular dish made by stir-frying cooked rice with vegetables, meat, seafood, or eggs and seasoned with soy sauce and spices. It is a versatile dish that can be customized to suit individual tastes and is often served as a side dish or main course.

It is commonly associated with East Asian cuisine and is particularly popular in China, Japan, and Southeast Asia. The dish is typically made with leftover rice to add a crispy texture and to avoid mushiness.

To prepare fried rice, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 1 cup of frozen peas and carrots
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2-3 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
