Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Mushroom Fried Rice
- Use day-old rice: Day-old rice is slightly drier and will prevent your fried rice from becoming mushy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Work in batches if necessary to ensure the vegetables are properly stir-fried and not steamed.
- Adjust the spice level: Feel free to adjust the amount of green chili or chili garlic sauce to your preferred level of spiciness.
- Get creative with veggies: Add other vegetables like bell peppers, snow peas, or corn for extra flavor and nutrition.
