  • Stir the rice, then transfer from the pot into a medium sized bowl and set aside.
  • Select "Saute" on the Instant Pot. Once it says "Hot", add the oil.
  • When the oil is shimmering, add the onion. Cook for around 1 minute until slightly opaque.
  • Add the minced garlic, frozen peas, salt, and pepper. Mix until incorporated.
  • Add rice mixture and stir until everything is combined.
  • Make a well in the middle of the rice for the eggs. Pour the beaten eggs into the well, stirring only the eggs until they are cooked.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rice: Day-old rice is best for fried rice because it's less sticky. If you're using fresh rice, cook it and let it cool completely before using.
  • Use a wok or large skillet: A wok is the traditional cooking vessel for fried rice, but a large skillet will work just as well.
  • Heat your wok or skillet over high heat: This will help create the characteristic smoky flavor of fried rice.
  • Add the rice and vegetables in batches: Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet, or the rice will steam instead of fry.
  • Stir constantly: This will help prevent the rice from sticking and burning.
  • Add the sauce and eggs towards the end of cooking: This will help prevent the eggs from overcooking.
  • Serve immediately: Fried rice is best served hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Veggie fried rice is a delicious and healthy meal that can be made in just 30 minutes. It's a great way to use up leftover rice and vegetables, and it's also a good source of protein, fiber, and vitamins. With a few simple tips, you can make veggie fried rice that's even better than takeout.
