  • Use a wok or a large frying pan to ensure that the rice gets evenly fried.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables, they should be cooked but still have a slight crunch.
  • Use a high heat to fry the rice, this will help to get a crispy texture.
  • Feel free to add your own twist to the recipe by adding your favorite spices or ingredients.
