Ingredients
4 cups cold cooked short-grain white rice
1 egg
½ cup chopped carrots
½ cup frozen peas
½ cup diced white onion
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2–3 tablespoons neutral oil (like canola)
Optional: 2 teaspoons sesame oil
Instructions
Cook and chill short-grain white rice for at least one hour before using.
Mix softened butter and soy sauce in a small bowl and set aside.
Heat a small amount of oil in a skillet over medium heat; scramble the egg and set aside.
In the same skillet, sauté carrots, peas, and onions until tender and vibrant.
Add the cold rice and fry until lightly golden.
Pour in the butter–soy sauce mixture and stir to coat the rice evenly.
Fold in the scrambled egg and sautéed vegetables. Serve hot.
Notes
Cold rice prevents sticking and ensures a restaurant-style fried texture.
Add hibachi-style proteins like chicken, steak, shrimp, or tofu to make this a full meal.
A splash of sesame oil adds authentic flavor but is optional.
Use a large griddle or wok for best results.
