THE RICE

As you might have learned from other Chinese Cooks, it is better to use one-day old rice to make the perfect fried rice dishes. However, if you donโ€™t have leftover rice, itโ€™s perfectly fine to cook the rice during the day and let it cool down before cooking. This is what I normally do. I use Jasmine Rice.

Haini’s Tips

Remember to always rinse the rice 2-3 times to eliminate extra starch before cooking. When frying the rice, it’s important to keep your heat at medium-high and keep stirring.
