I am also a Connie that uses this recipe. For those of us that are soy intolerant/allergic I use Club House Smokehouse Mesquite Marinate instead of the soy sauce.

When I make a roast or a ham or something I always buy a bit bigger than we eat and then the extras get chopped and then put into the freezer in single serve containers. When I am making the fried rice (I always use brown) I run the meat under hot water and thrown in the pan.

We did this @ home all the time but we would never use the egg and we put kimchi and sesame seed oil. yum!

If you cook your rice a day to three days in advance and leave it in the fridge it has a chance to dry out and is much easier to cook with. You won’t end up with sticky fried rice. Best trick I ever learned…now if I can just remember who told me that!

You can definitely make fried rice with brown rice. It’s less traditional but it still tastes great!

If you have it, adding a little bit of rice wine vinegar and white pepper will add to the flavor of fried rice. I like to use frozen peas and chopped carrots(cook them before you put them in your rice), that’s the way I had it when I lived in Taiwan.

This is one of my go-to meals I make when I have leftovers of something and don’t know what to do with it. Love it!

I do this too! We use rice all the time, so I always scrape the leftover rice into a big “rice” bowl in the freezer. When the bowl gets full, we make fried rice! The rice that has been frozen works much better for fried rice than fresh rice. Thanks for the tip about the eggs in the middle!
