Welcome to the channel; introducing the egg fried rice recipe.

Using cooked rice, which can be overnight rice or freshly cooked; the creator has rice cooked this morning and cooled.

Using 2 eggs to avoid overpowering the rice with too much egg.

Gathering ingredients: soy sauce, sweet corn, black pepper, green onions, bell pepper, carrots, garlic, and onion.

Washing all the vegetables properly before use.

Dicing the carrots into small pieces.

Preparing the green onions and bell pepper for the fried rice.

Chopping garlic and onion; ensuring everything is ready for cooking.

Whisking the eggs with black pepper to make them fluffy before scrambling.

Heating a non-stick skillet over medium heat and adding butter to scramble the eggs until fluffy.

Once scrambled, removing the eggs from the skillet and setting them aside.

In the same skillet, adding vegetable oil to sauté the garlic, onion, and green onions, being careful not to burn them.

Adding diced carrots to the skillet to cook until tender, ensuring they get flavor from the sautéed garlic and onions.

Adding sweet corn to the skillet and mixing it with the sautéed vegetables for flavor.

Adding the cooked rice to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables and mixing well.

Pouring in soy sauce (light soy sauce) and mixing it into the rice; noting that soy sauce is salty, so no additional salt is added.

Adding more black pepper to taste and mixing everything until well combined and heated through.

Letting the fried rice sit for about 2 minutes to allow flavors to meld together before serving.
