The common myth for making fried rice is to use overnight / refrigerated rice. At least that was what my mother (sorry, mom) has taught me since young. It was only recently that I discovered the “truth” after consulting with several professional Chinese chefs over a cooking workshop. I am so excited and grateful to them for passing on their invaluable tips. Today, I’m going to do the same and share it with you.

The best way to make the best plate of golden fried rice is to use freshly made warm rice. Especially for making today’s Golden Fried Rice. Why? Reason is simple. Nothing can beat the aroma from freshly cooked rice and by using warm rice, it ensures the egg yolks are coated evenly and absorb into each grain of rice. That way, when you are stir frying your fried rice, each individual grain will be well separated, looking just like the fried rice you would find from Chinese restaurants. One thing you might want to take note is to use a little lesser water from the usual quantity needed to cook the rice.

However, if that is not an option for you, you could try this trick: Sprinkle some water onto cold rice and warm it in the microwave for 30 – 40 seconds. Your rice will be “refreshed”.

Today, we are using easy everyday ingredients found in our pantry – onion, carrot, spring onion and eggs. Feel free to add in your favorite protein (prawns, ham, chicken, etc) or other types of vegetables you fancy. To elevate the taste of the fried rice, I’ve also included a tablespoon of XO sauce. Depending on your preference, you could choose to include or omit it.
