Recipe Tips:

  • Make sure to cook the rice ahead of time and let it cool before using it in this recipe. Freshly cooked rice can become mushy when stir-fried.
  • Stir-fry the vegetables over high heat for a short amount of time to retain their crunchiness.
  • Use a non-stick pan to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • Adjust the seasoning to your taste by adding more soy sauce or salt.
