Notes

  • Cold Rice: Make sure to use cold, precooked rice to avoid mushiness. If you start with warm rice, it will turn mushy!
  • You can make a shrimp fried rice, pork fried rice, or beef fried rice following these same steps.
  • Cook in Layers: Cook the ingredients in stages for the best texture and flavor. Just push each cooked ingredient to the side as you finish cooking the remaining ingredients.
  • Season Well: Taste as you go and add more soy sauce or pepper if needed.
