Recipe Tips

  • Make sure the rice is not too wet or sticky, as it will not fry well.
  • Use a large wok or pan to prevent the ingredients from getting crowded and steamed.
  • Stir-fry the vegetables over high heat to maintain their crispness and color.
  • Season the dish with salt and pepper gradually, as soy sauce is already salty.
  • Let the rice cool down before making the fried rice, as hot rice can become mushy and sticky.
