How To Make Air Fryer Fried Rice

1. Start by placing two teaspoons of sesame oil in the bottom of an air fryer safe pan.
2. Then add the Rice and onions, mix in with the sesame oil.
3. Mix in the vegetable medley
4. Toss well to coat, place in the air fryer basket or oven, and set the temperature for 320 degrees F for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, mix well and air fry for another 5 minutes.
5. After the 2nd time, mix well. Add two teaspoons of soy sauce and two more teaspoons of sesame oil. Mix well.
6. Then add two eggs to a small bowl, and beat.
7. Pour over the eggs over the rice and mix well. Air fry for another 7 minutes at 320 degrees F.

Pro Tips:

1. Mixing: For best results, mix your Rice frequently during the cooking process. This way, it cooks up perfectly.
2. Leftovers: Cold Rice will work best, either homemade fried Rice or take-out fried right.
3. Eggs: Make sure that the egg is fully cooked before removing it from the air fryer. You can also omit them if you are looking for an egg-free recipe.
4. Rice: Traditional Rice used in fried Rice is either jasmine rice or long-grain rice.
5. Soy Sauce: Soy sauce is the key to an authentic fried rice recipe. Add more if you like. I also would recommend that you use a low-sodium soy sauce.
6. Sesame Oil: Use sesame oil, which will give you the real taste of the fried rice. Sesame oil is a great oil, with a nutty taste.
7. Vegetables: Use any that you love, I made a batch with mushrooms sauteed, they were delicious! Add your favorite vegetables!
