4 servings
- 3 cups cooked jasmine rice, day-old and cold
- 1 lb ground pork
Chef's tipUse a plant-based ground product and cook according to package directions; add oil only if needed. - 3 tbsp coconut aminos
- 2 tbsp coconut oil or avocado oil, divided
- 3 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and finely diced
- 1 cup frozen peas, thawed
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- ½ tsp salt, plus more to taste
For serving
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Break the cold cooked rice apart with your hands or a fork so there are no large clumps — loose, separate grains will fry evenly and develop better color.

Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a large wok or 12-inch skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the ground pork and cook, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula, for 5–6 minutes until no pink remains and the meat reaches 160°F (71°C) at the center. Transfer the cooked pork to a plate and set aside.
