Cathy - that's close to how I do it - fried rice is the one of the easiest ways to use up leftover rice!
Hey MamaM don't you love my lack of a formal recipe! Hee-hee I just make as much as I need forget measuring! Also I make enough for 1 person to all 9 of us or 10 if my daughter is visiting! Or I just make enough to use up leftover rice. I do not add mushrooms to mine, as I do not care for the moistness the mushrooms give off, I prefer mine dry, only mositure I need is extra soy sauce:p I never have but a nice can of drained water chestnuts would not be a bad addition either!

Cathy - I never measure when cooking and only occasionally when baking - I do so much by look and feel. but it's always great - no one complains!

Hi everyone, Mama thanks for all the fried rice recipes. I made chicken fried rice the other night but I cheated and made my rice first, then I added 2 eggs into the rice.

I had my wok heating up with 2 tbsp. olive oil, I added frozen peas first, then onion, carrots, 2 cups of already cooked cut-up chicken. I also used a pkg. of fried rice seasoning mix with 2 tbsp. soy sauce and 1/3 cup water, let the mixture thicken. I added my rice last minute and cooked it about another 2 min. all together. I had this for dinner the other night it was good but :rolleyes: not like take-out & they do it so fast and authentic!! ;)
