Directions
Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet or a wok over medium-high heat until hot.
Add the garlic, ginger and scallions, stirring constantly, and cook for about 40 seconds to 1 minute until very fragrant.
Add the mushrooms, stirring often, and cook for about 5 minutes until some of the moisture has been evaporated and mushrooms become soft.
Stir in the bell peppers and carrots, and cook for about 3 minutes until tender.
Meanwhile in a small bowl, mix together the sauce ingredients until well blended.
Add the rice into the pan or wok, stirring often, and cook until the rice is heated through, about 2 minutes.
Pour the sauce over, add the corn and peas into the pan, stirring frequently, and cook another 2 minutes until the corn and peas are cooked through, vegetables and rice are evenly coated.
Stir in the scrambled eggs, scallions and cilantro until well combined.
Divide among the serving plates and serve warm.
