Creating Vegetable Egg Fried Rice is straightforward. Follow these easy steps to prepare this delicious dish:

1. Prepare the Rice: If you have leftover rice, use it! If not, cook 2 cups of rice according to package instructions and let it cool completely.

2. Beat the Eggs: In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

3. Heat the Wok: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.

4. Scramble the Eggs: Pour the beaten eggs into the hot pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are just set. Remove them from the pan and set aside.

5. Sauté Veggies: In the same pan, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add minced garlic and optional ginger. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

6. Add Mixed Vegetables: Stir in the mixed vegetables and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender.

7. Combine Rice and Vegetables: Add the cooked rice to the pan. Use a spatula to break up any clumps of rice, ensuring it’s nicely combined with the veggies.

8. Season: Pour soy sauce over the rice mixture. Stir everything together, making sure the rice is evenly coated.

9. Reincorporate Eggs: Return the scrambled eggs to the pan. Mix until the eggs are fully combined with the rice and vegetables.

10. Final Touch: Drizzle sesame oil over the fried rice and fold in the chopped green onions. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

11. Serve Immediately: Let the fried rice sit for a minute, then serve hot.
