Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
1. Cook Rice: If you haven’t already, cook the jasmine rice and let it cool. Using day-old rice works best for fried rice as it’s less sticky.
2. Prep Other Ingredients: Drain the crab meat, chop the onions, and slice the green onions.

Step 2: Cook the Fried Rice
1. Heat Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
2. Sauté Aromatics: Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.
3. Add Vegetables: Stir in the frozen peas and carrots (or mixed vegetables) and cook for another 2-3 minutes until they are heated through.

Step 3: Scramble the Eggs
1. Add Eggs: Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and pour the beaten eggs into the empty side. Scramble the eggs until fully cooked, then mix them with the vegetables.

Step 4: Combine with Rice and Crab
1. Add Rice: Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps. Stir everything together until well combined.
2. Incorporate Crab: Gently fold in the lump crab meat, being careful not to break it apart too much.
3. Season: Pour in the soy sauce and oyster sauce (if using). Toss everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 5: Serve
1. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions.
2. Enjoy: Serve hot with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
