Answer 1

hey i am from south east asia (to be more specific Malaysia)..



basically rice is one of our common food or specialty. for myself, i have to eat rice at least once or twice a week. it is very common to eat rice everyday over here.



hope this help:

-for every cup of rice the ratio is 1 and half cup of water



fried rice recipe (2 servings):



rice preparation;



2 cup of rice

3 cup of water



-rinse the rice before putting the water.

-if you have a rice cooker you can just put the rice and water to be cook

and forget about them but if you are using normal pot on stove, make sure you keep stirring and try to avoid the bottom from being over cook.

-for best texture of fried rice, just leave the rice to kool down on its own. i don't suggest you put it in the fridge because that will make it sticky when you fry the rice.



frying preparation:



1 big red onions (blend or cut finely)

1 clove of garlic (blend or cut finely)

some meat (any that suits your taste i.e:mince beef or chicken, sausages finely sliced, chicken or beef finely sliced)

some mushrooms (i.e: button mushroom or oyster mushroom) sliced

blended chili ( red chili, dried chili, or small green chili) 1 to 2 table spoon

salt



-fry the onion and garlic till the smells comes out and they get golden-ish

-put in mushrooms

-put in the meat

- once they are cook put the chili in, fry till cook

-put salt in and mix well

-put the rice in and mix well

-keep mixing till everything is spread up well if its too dry add a little bit of water to help the mixing or getting burn



you can garnish with Chinese parsley, cilantro, green onion, thin sliced omelette.

Answer 2

OK. Here is a wonderfully easy fried rice recipe. Have a day old cooked rice, that's been stored in the fridge. Fried rice is not as nice with freshly cooked rice. The rice needs to be a little dried out. Cook this in a large roomy fry pan . I use an electric fry pan. Fry onions till softened. Add diced chinese pork sausage. It is this sausage that makes the special fried rice taste yummy. Add some diced ham and diced chicken. Add the cooked rice. Add salt, pepper and soy sauce. Stir thoroughly to combine the sauce with all the rice and ingredients. Move the rice to the side of the fry pan. Pour into the center of the frypan beaten eggs. Leave it to firm up. Don't scramble it till it has set. What you want is big bits of yellow eggy bits through your rice. If you break it up too early, all you'll have are tiny bits of not recognisable egg. So, leave it. Only when it's set, then break it gently and combine with the rest of the rice. Add frozen peas. Stir through. That's it! You have a wonderful, tasty easy fried rice.

Answer 3

Rice should be cooked in a 2 to 1 ratio of water to rice and make sure to use a pot with a tight lid. Bring the water to a boil before you add the rice. Return to a boil then reduce the heat and cover tightly for 20 minutes.



After cooking, fluff the rice and let it sit without the cover for 20 minutes to allow it to dry even more.



Now you can use it for fried rice.

This is the only fried rice I eat. It's not a traditional fried recipe, but I like it better myself.

Answer 8

I cook my rice the same as my spaghetti, boil and drain, then for fried rice refrigerate it til cold before frying.

Answer 9

Pre-cook it the day before, or well in advance, so that it has plenty of time to dry.

That is the best tip I can give you.
