This recipe offers a delightful twist on the classic pork fried rice, incorporating vibrant vegetables and a touch of sesame for enhanced flavor.
Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Using sesame oil adds a nutty flavor to the dish.
Add the diced pork and cook until browned and cooked through.
Ensure the pork is cut into small, even pieces for uniform cooking.
Push the pork to one side of the skillet and pour in the beaten eggs. Scramble until just set.
Cook the eggs gently to avoid overcooking.
Add the cooked rice, bean sprouts, and shredded carrots to the skillet. Stir everything together.
Using day-old rice helps prevent clumping.
Pour in the soy sauce and sprinkle with ground pepper. Mix well to coat all ingredients evenly.
Adjust the soy sauce to taste for desired saltiness.
Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Adding green onions at the end preserves their fresh flavor.
