Dice the carrot small, slice the scallions, mince the garlic, and beat the eggs. Cold day-old rice works best, so break up any clumps with your fingers.
- 2
Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat, pour in the eggs, and scramble into soft curds, about 1 minute. Slide onto a plate.
- 3
Add the remaining oil and stir-fry the carrot for 2 minutes, then add the peas and garlic for 1 minute more.
- 4
Add the rice and press it into the hot pan, letting it sizzle undisturbed for 1 minute before tossing. Repeat twice until the rice is hot and lightly toasted.
- 5
Return the eggs, add the soy sauce and sesame oil, and toss until every grain is coated.
- 6
Fold in the scallions and serve straight from the pan.
