Tips

Tip Leftover cold rice (from the fridge) will result in the best textured fried rice, but if you need to cook rice especially for this recipe, here’s what to do: Cook 2 cups of rice and allow it to cool in the pot for 10 to 15 minutes, then spread it out onto a sheet pan and place in the fridge, uncovered, for 1 to 2 hours to allow it to dry out and cool completely. It is now ready to use. The information shown is Edamam’s estimate based on available ingredients and preparation. It should not be considered a substitute for a professional nutritionist’s advice.
