Fried Rice Recipe

Cook Rice

Start with cooking the rice beforehand. Leftover rice works best for achieving that perfect texture in fried rice. Let it cool.

Prepare Vegetables and Meat

Dice the carrots and any other vegetables you'd like to include, such as peas or onions. If including meat, cut it into small pieces. Chicken, pork, beef, or shrimp are all great options.

Sauté

Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil, then garlic and any meat of your choice. Cook until the meat is nearly done. Add the diced vegetables, and sauté until they are just soft.

Combine and Season

Add the cooked rice to the pan with the meat and vegetables. Stir in soy sauce, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Optionally, you can include an egg or scallions for additional flavor.

Serve

Keep stirring the rice on high heat until everything is well mixed and the rice is heated through. Serve hot.
