To “solve” the problem of leftover rice, many people choose to fry it with an egg to get a tasty and nutritious dish. However, when made at home, fried rice often doesn’t have the same alluring color and flavor as that served in restaurants. That’s because not everyone knows the “secret” of adding an egg to the rice and mixing before frying. This way, the grains of rice will always be evenly coated and have an attractive golden yellow color without sticking together.

3. Tips for Making Fried Rice with Eggs
– Depending on your tastes and preferences, you can add other ingredients to your fried rice, such as hot dogs, Chinese sausage, shrimp, etc.
– For a tastier dish, you should use cold rice (usually rice that has been cooked and stored in the refrigerator). That’s because the grains will be looser and firmer. In case you don’t have any cold rice, you can let freshly cooked rice cool completely before cooking.
– To keep the rice grains separate, firm, and not sticky when fried, you need to wash the rice thoroughly. Once it’s washed, let the rice drain before cooking it.
– For shiny and translucent rice, add a small spoonful of vegetable oil to the rice and mix well before cooking.
– Use a non-stick pan to fry the rice and wait for the pan to heat up before adding oil. Also, wait until the pan is hot before adding rice and fry over high heat.
