Instructions
Cook jasmine rice according to package instructions. Spread it on a tray and chill in the refrigerator until cold (at least 30 minutes).
Warm a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the hot oil and stir for about 20-30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the diced cooked beef and heat briefly until warmed through.
Add the frozen peas and carrots along with most of the chopped green onions and stir for 1-2 minutes until heated.
Add the chilled jasmine rice, breaking apart clumps. Let sit undisturbed for 30-60 seconds, then stir until evenly heated.
Pour in the soy sauce and sriracha, stirring well, and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Drizzle the sesame oil over the rice, toss to combine, and garnish with remaining green onions before serving.
