There are probably more recipes for Fried Rice that anyone can imagine. Every ethnic culture has a version all their own and each and every recipe is truly unique. This is my every day, any time of the day, eat all day version.
A note about the rice…. I was always under the impression that the best Fried Rice is made from “leftover, refrigerated” cooked rice. That was, until my husband made his version. Absolutely nothing wrong with using freshly cooked rice.
