Since the rice for fried rice has to be “old”, I make a couple cups a night or two before I wanna make it and then throw that rice in the refrigerator.
My partner says this is weird because her family only made fried rice when they had too much rice leftover. But we eat a lot of rice and there’s not usually any leftovers, definitely not enough for a whole batch of fried rice. I really like fried rice though.
Also why isn’t there a cooking comm?


i have tried both. ended up settling on just using a bit less water in the rice cooker and jasmine rice so the grains fry nicely.
