Fried rice

Ingredients
* 4 cups of white rice, rinsed
* 8 cups of water
* ½ cup of carrots, chopped
* ¾ cup of onions, chopped
* ¼ cup of scallions, sliced
* 1 clove of garlic, minced
* 3 ½ tablespoons of sesame oil (or a sesame oil substitute)
* 2 teaspoons of soy sauce
* 1 teaspoon of salt
* 1/2 teaspoon tumeric
* To prepare the rice, add 8 cups of water to a large pot over medium heat. Sprinkle with the salt and bring to a boil. Once the water begins to boil, cover the pot and let the rice boil for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the heat down to low and leave the rice to simmer for an extra 15 to 20 minutes without removing the lid.
* Once the water evaporates and the rice reaches a fluffy texture, remove the pot from the stove and let it cool. Place the rice in your refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours, or let the pot cool overnight before preparing your fried rice platter.
* After the rice has chilled, place a large skillet over medium heat
* Add 3 tablespoons of sesame oil to the previous pan over medium heat. Once the oil is warm, add your chopped carrots, onions, scallions and garlic to the skillet. Sauté the vegetables until they’re slightly browned or softened.
* Add your cooked rice to the vegetable mixture and stir until fully mixed.
