## Ingredients List
– 2 cups cooked rice (preferably day-old)
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, bell peppers)
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil (optional)
– 2 green onions, finely chopped
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)

## Instructions/Steps
1. **Prep the Rice**: If you’re using fresh rice, ensure it cools down first to avoid clumping. Day-old rice works best for this Egg Fried Rice recipe from Mom’s Dosa!

2. **Scramble the Eggs**: In a skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Beat the eggs in a bowl, then pour them into the skillet. Scramble until fully cooked. Remove the eggs from the pan and set aside.

3. **Sauté Vegetables**: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and mixed vegetables. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the veggies are tender but still crisp.

4. **Combine Rice and Seasoning**: Add the cooked rice to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Pour in the soy sauce, sesame oil (if using), salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine and heat through.

5. **Add the Eggs**: Return the scrambled eggs to the skillet and mix everything until well combined. Stir in the chopped green onions.

6. **Garnish and Serve**: Transfer the Egg Fried Rice to a serving bowl. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired and serve hot.
