  2. 2Add remaining oil to the wok and stir-fry minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. 3Add the cooled rice, breaking up any clumps, and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until heated through.
  4. 4Stir in frozen peas and carrots, and cook for another 2 minutes.
  5. 5Pour soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice, tossing everything together for 1 minute.
