Tips…
Fried rice tastes better when the rice kernels are allowed to scorch a little at the bottom or the side of the wok or pan. This gives the rice a toasted flavor and is very tasty. At all times use a high heat when making fried rice.
Do not use freshly cooked rice for fried rice because it will be too soggy as it has too much moisture.
