- 1 cup Onion (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup Carrots
- ½ cup Frozen Peas
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 tbsp Cooking Oil
- ¼ cup Butter (regular or dairy free)
- 2 tbsp White Miso Paste

Instructions
- Prepare your rice. Wash the rice in cold tap water and drain. Bring 1 ½ cups rice and 1 ½ cups of water + 2 tbsp of water to a boil. Once your rice is boiling reduce the heat to low and cover. Cook the rice for 15 minutes.
- While your rice is cooking prepare your veggies. Dice the onion and carrots. Chop the garlic. Thinly slice the green onions and set aside to garnish. Heat a large pan to medium heat. Add the cooking oil to the pan and cook the onions and carrots for 5 minutes until softened.
- While the onions and carrots cook, start browning your butter in a saucepan, over medium heat. When the melted butter begins to foam and turn a caramel color your brown butter is ready. Turn off the heat and add the miso paste. Stir well to combine.
- Add your cooked rice, chopped garlic, and frozen peas to the onions and carrots. Using the back of a spoon break up the rice. Add in the miso butter, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Saute the fried rice for 5 minutes. Add scallion and serve immediately. Enjoy!
