Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter. Once hot, add one beaten egg, cooking until soft curds form, about 1-2 minutes. Stir gently to scramble, then transfer the eggs to a plate and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of melted butter and toss in finely diced carrots, chopped onion, peas, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and fragrant.
- Increase the heat to high. Add the remaining butter, let it melt completely, then incorporate the cooked quinoa, sliced green onions, soy sauce, and oyster sauce if desired. Stir-fry for an additional 3 minutes.
- Return the scrambled eggs to the skillet, mixing them well into the quinoa and vegetable medley. Drizzle sesame oil over the top.
- Spoon the quinoa fried rice onto plates, garnishing with extra green onions if you like. Serve warm.

Notes
For best texture, use day-old quinoa. Adjust sauces to suit your taste, and feel free to mix veggies based on what's in season.
