The Fried Rice

So last week, I shared a fantastic recipe for Sweet and Sour Chicken. This rice goes perfectly with it. Like the chicken, this rice tastes just like it came from a Chinese restaurant. The secret is the sesame oil. I love that I can make this at home. It's so simple, but this is the first homemade fried rice I've tasted that tastes like it came from a restaurant. You can add ham to it if you want, but I left it out this time.

3 cups cooked white rice (this is a great recipe to use up leftover rice)
3 Tbsp. Sesame Oil
1 cup frozen peas and carrots (thawed)
1 small onion, chopped
2 tsp. minced garlic
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1/4 cup soy sauce

On medium high heat, heat the oil in a large skillet or wok. Add the peas/carrots mix, onion and garlic. Stir fry until tender. Lower the heat to medium low and push the mixture off to one side, then pour...
