Instructions

If using frozen prawns, thaw them under cold water until fully defrosted.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and sauté minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the prawns to the pan and cook until they turn pink, approximately 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Pour in another tablespoon of vegetable oil along with the day-old rice. Stir-fry the rice for about 5 minutes until heated through.
Mix in the vegetables (peas and carrots), soy sauce, and cooked prawns. Stir everything together for another 3-4 minutes until well combined.
Drizzle sesame oil over the fried rice and garnish with chopped green onions before serving hot.
