A delightful twist on the classic fried rice recipe, featuring vibrant vegetables and a hint of sesame.
Heat the sesame oil in a wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Ensure the wok is hot before adding ingredients to achieve a good sear.
Add the diced green pepper and sliced green onion, and stir-fry until slightly softened.
Keep the vegetables moving in the wok to prevent burning.
Push the vegetables to one side of the wok and crack the eggs into the empty space, scrambling them until just set.
Scramble the eggs gently to maintain a soft texture.
Add the cooked rice to the wok, mixing it with the vegetables and eggs.
Break up any clumps of rice for even cooking.
Drizzle the soy sauce over the rice mixture and stir well to combine.
Taste and adjust the soy sauce as needed for seasoning.
Sprinkle with ground black pepper, stir, and cook for an additional minute.
Add a pinch of chili flakes for a spicy kick if desired.
Serve the fried rice hot, garnished with additional green onion slices if desired.
Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture and flavor.
