Steps

Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Scramble the eggs until just set and move them to a plate.
Add the remaining oil, the frozen vegetables, the white parts of the green onions and the garlic. Stir-fry 2 minutes.
Add the rice and break up clumps. Cook 3 minutes without stirring too much so it can crisp.
Add the soy sauce, sesame oil and pepper and toss.
Fold the eggs back in and finish with the green onion tops.

Keeping and reheating

Refrigerate in a covered container for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet to keep vegetables from going soft.
