Notes
The secrect ingredient is Mayonnaise. To be precise, it is Japanese Kewpie Mayonnaise.
You will make a more authentic Japanese fried rice with Kewpie Mayonnaise. However, if you can’t find it in your area, you can use other kind of Mayonnaise too.
The taste might be a bit different but it is still amazingly delicious!
