Once oil is shimmering, add eggs and cook, breaking up into small pieces, until cooked through but not browning, about 1 minute. Pour in 1 tablespoon oil and swirl wok to coat.

Don’t sleep on unconventional ingredients either-use our kimchi fried rice, our Thai fried rice, or our pineapple fried rice as inspiration, then feel free to get creative. Looking to amp up the veggies (or need to use what’s been sitting around in the fridge)? No prob-cook them alongside your garlic and ginger before adding your rice. Prefer some protein in your rice? Add in your faves: shrimp, pork, or chicken are classic choices. Like we said, this fried rice is the perfect base to customize with whatever you please. If you do choose to include additional ingredients to your fried rice, use a light hand with the soy sauce and add it to taste. While to some, this might not be super-traditional in fried rice, a lot of American eaters (and Delish taste testers) prefer it! Because there is no meat or seafood in this fried rice, after some testing, I felt it added some extra body and umami to the rice that is totally delicious. The first thing you’ll notice about this recipe is that soy sauce is included.

How to make the most flavorful fried rice: The Delish kitchen team was floored at the consistent texture you get with the rice, and I for one will not be cooking my rice any other way going forward. The method that its hosts Steph and Chris use to par-boil then steam the rice is borderline miraculous in the results you get. The YouTube channel Chinese Cooking Demystified is one of my favorite places to go for all my Chinese culinary questions. What’s the best rice to use for fried rice?Įveryone knows leftover rice (preferably long-grain jasmine) is the best when making fried rice, but what if you don’t have any? Here, I’ve included the method used by restaurants to get that ideal, slightly dried-out rice without having to wait a day.


Not only is it totally customizable with whatever additional protein and veggies you have in the fridge, but it’s crazy simple to make too.

We know everyone has a soft spot in their heart for their favorite type of fried rice (we see you, shrimp fried rice-heads), so this recipe is as classic as you can get, perfect for personalizing however you like. Better yet, you only need one bowl and one skillet, which doubles as the perfect serving dish.Fried rice is the ultimate leftover food. You can make the dough a few days ahead of time and store it in the fridge wrapped tightly to use when needed. But this recipe is easy in all the ways you need it to be. You can also dress the biscuit topping up by adding shredded aged cheddar, or thyme, parsley, or rosemary. When making these biscuits, you cut the butter into the flour by rubbing them together to create a shaggy mass, then stir in your cream and that’s all there is to it-no rolling out or cutting into circles required. In this recipe I make a drop biscuit topping that can easily be scattered. The biscuit addition also helps to thicken the filling, ensuring a creamy gravy every time. The kicker here is how the biscuits cook perfectly atop the creamy gravy so that you get golden tops that crisp like a flaky pastry but the bottom of the dough cooks through, soaking in the gravy like a succulent dumpling getting the best of all the textures in one bite. Slicing the carrots and celery into ½-inch pieces rather than the traditional small dice brings texture and helps the vegetables hold their shape rather than turning into mush. My usual filling is exactly the same as a classic chicken pot pie, bringing together sweet onion (I will spare you from peeling a dozen pearl onions for this recipe, because I actually want you to make it), carrots, peas, potatoes, celery and of course, bite-sized pieces of chicken thigh.
