Equipment

Ingredients

2 cups rice long grain, any variety
2 1/2 cups water
1 tablespoon oil
10 ounces frozen vegetables peas, carrots
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons garlic minced
1 tablespoon ginger paste
2-3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 cup chicken cooked, shredded
1/4 cup green onions chopped
2 tablespoons sesame seeds optional

Instructions

Place the rice and water in the Instant Pot, select the “Rice” setting, and close the lid and valve. Once the cooking is finished, release the pressure manually and then take off the lid. Fluff the rice with a fork and transfer it to a bowl. Set it aside.
Select “cancel” and then switch to “Sauté” mode. Add oil to the pot, followed by the frozen vegetables. Cook until they are thawed and heated through.
Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl. Then, move the vegetables to one side of the pot to create a space in the middle. Pour the whisked eggs into this space and sauté until fully cooked.
Add the rice, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and chicken. Mix them together. Then, add the green onions and mix again. Finally, transfer the fried rice to a bowl and garnish with more green onions and sesame seeds.
