Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add a splash of vegetable oil.
Add the ground beef, cooking until browned and breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
Drain any excess grease, then add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant and the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the mixed vegetables and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until they’re heated through.
Push the beef and vegetable mixture to one side of the skillet, adding more oil if necessary.
Add the cold, cooked rice, breaking up any clumps, and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes.
Drizzle in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil, mixing everything together thoroughly.
Season with salt and pepper to taste and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.
Serve hot and enjoy!

To make this dish vegetarian, use tofu or tempeh instead of ground beef.

For a bit of heat, add a few slices of fresh chili or a teaspoon of chili paste when sautéing the onions and garlic.

If you prefer, you can substitute the ground beef with ground chicken, pork, or even shrimp.

For a healthier option, you can swap regular rice with cauliflower rice or brown rice.
