Tips:

  • Use day-old rice: This will help the rice grains stay separate and prevent the rice from becoming mushy.
  • Cook the rice properly: Make sure to cook the rice according to the package instructions. If the rice is undercooked, it will be too hard, and if it is overcooked, it will be too soft and mushy.
  • Use a large skillet: This will help the rice spread out evenly and prevent it from clumping together.
  • Add the vegetables and other ingredients towards the end of cooking: This will help prevent them from becoming overcooked and mushy.
  • Season the rice to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of soy sauce or fish sauce for extra flavor.
