    1

    Prepare the rice by rinsing it under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook 2 cups of rice according to the package instructions. This will take about 20 minutes.

    2

    While the rice is cooking, chop the carrot finely and slice the green onions.

    3

    In a large frying pan or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chopped carrot and cook for about 3 minutes until softened.

    4

    Reduce heat to low, push the carrots to the side, and crack 2 eggs into the pan. Scramble the eggs gently and cook until just set, about 2 minutes.

    5

    Add the frozen peas, cooked rice, and soy sauce to the pan. Stir well to combine all the ingredients. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the rice to fry a bit.

    6

    While the fried rice is finishing up, cook the chicken patties according to the package instructions. Typically, this will take about 10 minutes.

    7

    Serve the chicken patties on a plate and top with the fried rice. Garnish with sliced green onions.

How to be creative
  • Add chopped bell peppers for extra crunch.
  • Incorporate different sauces such as teriyaki or sriracha for added flavor.
  • Top with crispy fried garlic or shallots for a delicious finish.
Important Tips
  • Make sure to rinse the rice well to prevent it from becoming sticky.
  • Use day-old rice if possible; it fries better and reduces the cooking time.
