2. Prepare Rice:

   • In a pot, boil the long grain rice in salted water for approximately 10 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.

4. Prepare Watercress and Egg:

   • Add 1 teaspoon of soy sauce and the watercress to the wok. Once the watercress is wilted, remove it from the wok and reduce the heat to medium.
   • In the same wok, add a few drops of sesame oil and crack the eggs. Cook the eggs until they are set. Remove the cooked eggs from the wok and dice them into large pieces.

5. Stir Fry Rice:

   • Raise the heat to medium-high and add peanut oil, chopped scallions, and a pinch of red pepper flakes to the wok. Cook for about 1 minute.
   • Add the cooked rice and minced garlic to the wok, stirring constantly for approximately 3 minutes.
   • Stir in 2 teaspoons of soy sauce, the cooked beef, watercress, and diced egg. Stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes, ensuring all ingredients are evenly combined.
