Easy Vegetable Fried Rice

First, blanch any raw green vegetables you're using by dropping them into boiling water for a couple of minutes, then drain them well. If you're starting with frozen vegetables, follow the package instructions but stop cooking them shy of three minutes to keep them from getting mushy.

In a large pan or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium heat, then add the minced garlic and ginger. Fry them until fragrant, about a minute.
