Pour water into a saucepan; add rice and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until rice is tender and water is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Set aside.
-
Meanwhile, place 2 tablespoons of cooking oil into a large skillet and heat over medium heat. Stir in eggs and cook until scrambled to desired consistency. Remove eggs from the pan; set aside.
-
Using the same skillet, add remaining 1 tablespoon oil and heat over medium heat. Stir in onion and green onion; cook until onion is transparent, about 5 minutes.
