4 servings
- 3 tbsp garlic-infused oil, divided
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced small
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced small
- 4 cups cooked jasmine rice, day-old and cold
- 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 3 tbsp tamari
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated
- ¼ tsp white pepper
Ingredient noteWhite pepper can worsen reflux in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (less than 1/8 teaspoon per serving) is likely tolerated by many with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid white pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 6 scallions, green tops only, thinly sliced
Ingredient noteScallions are the mildest of the onion family, and only a small amount is used here. That is likely fine for most people with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid scallions, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
For serving
- 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Heat a large wok or 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates on contact. Add 1 tbsp of the garlic-infused oil and swirl to coat. Add the carrots and bell pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until the carrots are just tender and the edges of the pepper are lightly charred, about 4–5 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a plate and set aside.

Return the wok to high heat and add 1 tbsp of the garlic-infused oil. Add the cold rice and press it into an even layer. Let it cook undisturbed for 1–2 minutes until the bottom layer is lightly toasted, then stir and toss to break up any clumps, continuing to cook until the rice is heated through and slightly crisp at the edges, about 3–4 minutes total.
