Recipe Tips

  • Make sure to use cold cooked rice, as warm rice can become mushy when stir-fried.
  • Cut the vegetables and meat into small, uniform pieces, so they cook evenly and quickly.
  • Stir-fry the vegetables and meat on high heat to get a nice char and texture.
  • Add the soy sauce and sesame oil towards the end of cooking to prevent the rice from becoming too salty or greasy.
  • Don't overcook the eggs, or they will become rubbery and tough.
