Ingredients

3 tablespoons safflower oil

2 links Chinese-style sausage, such as Kam Yen Jan (available at amazon.com), cut into 1/4-inch coins

1 bunch scallions (about 10), thinly sliced, white and light-green bottoms separated from dark-green tops

2 carrots, cut into 1/4-inch pieces (2/3 cup)

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

2 tablespoons minced garlic (from 5 cloves)

2 tablespoons peeled and minced fresh ginger (from a 2-inch piece)

3 large eggs, cracked into a bowl

3 cups cooked rice

2/3 cup frozen peas

2 tablespoons soy sauce, preferably low-sodium

Preparation

Heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over high until very hot, about 2 minutes. Swirl in 2 tablespoons oil. Add sausage, scallion white and light-green parts, and carrots; season with 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until golden in places, about 2 minutes. Stir in garlic and ginger; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Push vegetables to one side of skillet. Pour remaining 1 tablespoon oil into other; add eggs and scramble with a fork until just set but still moist, about 30 seconds. Add rice; stir to combine everything, then cook, stirring often and scraping bottom of pan, until heated through, about 3 minutes. Stir in peas and soy sauce; cook about 30 seconds more. Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper and stir in scallion greens; serve.
