CHINESE FRIED RICE



Chinese Fried Rice image

This Chinese fried rice has the flavor those other recipes are missing. Tastes like takeout. I want to dedicate this dish to Bergy, whose recipe "AM & B's Indonesian Mehoon" has inspired this dish. Make sure you season your rice with salt before it cooks. Add some butter to the cooking water, as well. Other seasonings should be added before you cook, as well, so it has time to get inside the rice. If you like sesame flavor, add 1 tsp. of it after you add the green onions, but do not use it as a cooking oil because it easily burns.

EASY FRIED RICE



Easy Fried Rice image

Very easy. The rice, preferably, should be one day old (so that it is less sticky) but I have done it all once several times with good results. I also want to try adding in bean sprouts, but I keep forgetting to pick some up at the store.

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice: Day-old rice is less moist and will not clump together as easily when fried.
  • Rinse the rice: Rinsing the rice removes the starch and helps to prevent it from sticking together.
  • Use a wok or large skillet: A wok or large skillet will allow you to spread the rice out in a thin layer, which will help it to fry evenly.
  • Heat the wok or skillet over high heat: The high heat will help to create a nice crispy texture on the rice.
  • Add the oil and eggs: Add the oil and eggs to the hot wok or skillet and cook until the eggs are scrambled.
  • Add the rice: Add the rice to the wok or skillet and stir-fry until it is heated through.
  • Add the vegetables and sauce: Add the vegetables and sauce to the wok or skillet and stir-fry until the vegetables are tender.
  • Serve immediately: Fried rice is best served immediately, while it is still hot and crispy.
