I've never been able to get fried rice at home to taste as good as what you get out. When I had the roasted pork leftover from making Steamed Pork Buns I thought it was worth trying again.
This version came closer than any try before, perhaps because the pork had such a good flavor. We also found it was important not to skimp on the amount of soy sauce.

the key to fried rice is to not use fresh rice (it should be dry, not at all sticky) and to let the egg cook away from the rest of the dish. i usually just push the rice to the side of the pan. this sounds really good!
ReplyDeleteKat,
ReplyDeleteAre you doing posts while away? or are you back from London?
I always make fried rice w/ leftover rice. It's so good!
Ellen, I was going to say that about the cooled, dried rice too!
ReplyDeleteThis looks very nice, and a lot healthier than the fried rice at the takeaway.
