Recipe Tips

  • Use a well-seasoned wok or skillet for best results.
  • Be sure to let the rice sit for a few minutes after cooking to dry out slightly. This will prevent the rice from becoming too mushy when fried.
  • Use low-sodium soy sauce if you are watching your sodium intake.
  • Add a diced chili pepper for some extra heat!
