Instructions

Turn two burners of your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat and let it preheat until it’s nice and hot. Next, pour sesame oil and a tablespoon of butter onto the surface. Toss the diced carrot, celery, and onion over the oil and butter. Furthermore, cover them with a basting dome or simply stir every few minutes. Allow them to cook for about 4 to 6 minutes until they’re softened and lightly browned.

Stir in the garlic and peas for about 60 seconds, just to flavor the oil, and then set them aside when heated thoroughly on the hot side of the griddle to avoid overcooking.

Crack the eggs directly onto the griddle. Use your spatulas to chop and scramble them into bite-sized pieces as they cook. Once done, slide them over to the cooler side of the grill to join the vegetables.

Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the hot side of the grill and let it melt. Spread your cold, cooked rice over the buttery surface and toss it around to coat every grain. Cook for about 3 minutes, letting the rice absorb the butter and develop a light golden crust. Bring the vegetables and eggs back to the hot zone and mix them into the rice. Drizzle the soy sauce over everything, then use your spatulas to keep the mixture moving as it fries and toasts evenly. This step should take 4 to 5 minutes.

Once everything is perfectly fried and golden, remove the rice from the griddle and transfer it to a serving dish. Perfect with a sprinkle of fresh green onions or chives for a burst in both taste and color. Serve immediately and enjoy every bite!
