how to cook egg fried rice?

 Cooking egg fried rice is relatively straightforward and can be done in about 20-30 minutes. Here's a simple recipe for you:

### Ingredients:😜😋

- 2 cups cooked rice (preferably cold, leftover rice works best)

- 2 eggs

- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

- 1 small onion, finely chopped

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 cup mixed vegetables (like peas, carrots, and corn), optional

- 2-3 tablespoons soy sauce

- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)

- 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)

- Salt and pepper to taste

- 2-3 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

### Instructions:

1. **Prepare the Rice:**

   - If you haven't cooked the rice yet, do so and let it cool completely. Cold rice is easier to work with and gives a better texture to the fried rice.

2. **Scramble the Eggs:**

   - Beat the eggs in a small bowl.

   - Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.

   - Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble them until fully cooked. Remove the eggs from the pan and set them aside.

3. **Cook the Vegetables:**

   - In the same pan, add another tablespoon of oil.

   - Add the chopped onions and garlic, and sauté until they become translucent and fragrant.

   - If you're using mixed vegetables, add them now and cook until they are tender.

4. **Stir-Fry the Rice:**

   - Increase the heat to high.

   - Add the cold, cooked rice to the pan. Break up any clumps with a spatula and stir-fry for a few minutes until the rice is heated through and slightly crispy.

5. **Combine Everything:**

   - Add the cooked eggs back into the pan.

   - Pour in the soy sauce and oyster sauce (if using). Mix everything thoroughly.

   - Drizzle with sesame oil for added flavor (if using).

   - Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. **Garnish and Serve:**

   - Stir in the chopped green onions.

   - Serve hot and enjoy!

### Tips:

- **Use Day-Old Rice:** Freshly cooked rice can be too moist and sticky. Day-old rice that has been refrigerated is firmer and easier to fry.

- **High Heat:** Cooking on high heat helps to give the rice a nice, slightly crispy texture.

- **Soy Sauce:** Adjust the amount of soy sauce based on your taste preferences. Start with less and add more if needed.
