Fried Rice with Ground Beef and Vegetables

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, etc.)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
1 teaspoon sesame oil
Salt and pepper to taste
2 eggs, beaten (for scrambled eggs)
Green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Chop the onion and mince the garlic. Measure out the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil.

In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat.

Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula.

Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil if needed.

Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until the onion is translucent.

Add the mixed vegetables to the skillet and stir-fry for a few minutes until they start to soften.

Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps.

Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), and sesame oil. Stir-fry everything together until the rice is heated through and starting to brown.

Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet and mix it with the rice and vegetables.

Push the rice mixture to one side of the skillet. Pour the beaten eggs into the other side and scramble them until cooked through. Mix the eggs with the rice mixture.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Transfer the fried rice to a serving platter or individual plates.

Garnish with chopped green onions.
