I like this recipe because it is a good side dish with seafood and it has a lot of flavor unlike usual rice.

- 3/4 tsp pepper
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 tsp sesame oil
Directions
1. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil, then add in 2 cups of white rice. Cover and remove from burner. Let sit for 5 mins. After 5 mins dump rice onto a sheet pan to cool.
2. Heat 2 tbsp of the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium- high heat until simmering. Add the garlic and 1 cup frozen peas and carrots. Stir-fry until the carrots and peas are thawed, about 2 mins.
