Home Made Fried Rice

Ingredients:
1 - 2 green onions, as desired
2 large eggs
1 tsp salt
Pepper to taste
4 tbsp oil for stir-frying, or as needed
4 c. cold cooked rice
1 - 2 tbsp light soy sauce
3/4 c. frozen mixed peas and carrots
Directions:
1. Wash and finely chop the green onion.
2. Lightly beat the eggs with the salt and pepper.
3. Heat a wok or frying pan and add 2 tablespoons oil. When the oil is hot, add the eggs. Cook, stirring, until they are lightly scrambled but not too dry. Remove the eggs and clean out the pan.
4. Add 2 tablespoons oil. Add the rice. Stir-fry for a few minutes (i do it for about 5 minutes) , using chopsticks or a wooden spoon to break it apart.
5. Stir in the soy sauce.
6. When the rice is heated through, add the peas, carrots, and, scrambled egg back into the pan. Mix thoroughly.
7. Stir in the green onion. Serve hot.

I have made this several times and I learn what I would like more of and what I would like less of each time. So you may find out that you like a little less soy sauce or a little more egg?!? This is one of my husband's favorites.
