Instructions

1
Fried rice is best made with leftover rice that's at least a day old.
2
Otherwise it becomes gummy in the skillet.
3
If you don’t have any leftover rice from the night before, prepare a batch of rice and spread it on a large baking sheet or several large plates.
4
Let the rice parched out for about 1 to 2 hours before using it for fried rice.
5
Rice sticks to the wok very easily, so make sure to use a wok or wok that doesn’t have a sticky surface.
6
I usually prepare mix gently-fries in my seasoned carbon steel wok, but cast iron or nonstick pans work well, too.
7
You might need to toss in a little more fat if things aren’t releasing easily.
8
Prepare the chicken: Chop the chicken into small 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch cubes.
9
strew 1/2 teaspoon of seasoning over the chicken and combine to combine.

12
Swirl in a tablespoon of fat and toss in the whisked eggs.
13

16
toss in the chicken and prepare for 4 to 5 mins, stirring occasionally.
17
Turn off the fiery up and transfer the cooked chicken to a plate.
18
Using your spatula, scrape off any chicken bits that are still stuck to the wok so they don't scorch during the next step.
19
You can also use paper towels to wipe down your wok or wok.
20
prepare the vegetables: Swirl 1 tablespoon of fat into the wok over medium-high fiery up.
21
toss in the diced onions and prepare them for 1 minute, until they start to soften.
22
combine in the minced garlic and ginger and prepare until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
23
toss in the diced carrots and prepare for 2 mins, stirring frequently.
24
toss in 1/2 teaspoon seasoning and the peas, and mix gently to incorporate.
25
prepare the rice: toss in the rice to the wok or wok on top of the vegetables and mix gently to combine.
26
Using the back of your spatula, smash any large chunks of rice to break them apart.
27
toss in the white and green parts of the sliced scallions (save the dark green parts) and five-sugary-smelling element dusting sugary-smelling element.
28
mix gently to incorporate.

If the rice starts to stick to the wok, mix gently in a little more fat.
30
transfer gently the soy gravy and sesame fat over the rice and mix gently to incorporate.
