Notes
** This recipe is easy to whip up using either freshly made rice or leftover rice. When I know I’ll be making fried rice, I make 10+ cups of rice the night before & save half. You can also freeze your cooked rice & use that as well!
If you don’t like soy sauce, you can experiment with other soy sauce alternatives. I haven’t tried them so I can’t personally recommend any specific brands or products.
Since this includes eggs, it’s a great protein packed dish. You can easily add your favorite cooked vegetables to the rice while it’s cooking or top it once it’s done.
Add anywhere from 4-8 eggs, depending on how much protein you’d like in the dish. We prefer to use 6-8, but 4 works in a pinch!
