delicious homemade fried rice
I have made this for years and it is the best. I got it out of a cookbook of Chinese recipes. I've added shrimp or chicken and is really easy if you get everything ready ahead of time because it cooks quickly. The trick is make rice in the morning, then use the cold rice for making the dish.
