Cooking Instructions

Begin by heating the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the thinly sliced pork to the hot pan. Stir-fry until browned and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes.
Toss in the mixed vegetables, minced garlic, and chopped green onions. Stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Push the pork and veggies to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs into the empty side and scramble until fully cooked, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the cooked rice into the skillet, breaking up any clumps and stirring until evenly distributed.
Drizzle the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil over the rice mixture. Stir thoroughly.
Taste and adjust the salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot, garnished with extra green onions.
