Saute diced onion and carrots, along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until softened and fragrant.

Add green onions to the pan and toss for about 30 secs.

Add cooked veggies to the dish of scrambled eggs. Wipe out pan and return to heat.

4. Fry Rice

Add oil to the pan, along with chilled rice, salt and pepper. Toss and heat the rice through.

Add cooked veggies, eggs, and garlic butter. Toss, letting the butter melt. Season with more pepper.

Push the rice to the sides of the pan and pour soy sauce onto the center, letting the sauce sizzle up for a few seconds and thicken.
