I used a package of microwave 90 sec jasmine rice. It makes the perfect fried rice. 1 package equal a cup of rice. Don’t cook it, just break it up in the package and add it in to the veggies and eggs.

I know the comment is old but for people trying this recipe, freshly cooked rice is too soft and moist making it mushy or sticky in fried rice. It’s best to use day old refrigerated rice that has cooled. The rice will be drier and give you far better results. The drier cooled rice will develop a better flavour, separates the grains and absorbs the sauce and seasoning better.
Recipe is great otherwise.

Hi! I am going to try this tonight and was wanting to make chicken fried rice. Do you have any good chicken recipes that would go well with this dish? If not, could you suggest some other good chicken recipes. Also, I made the serving fit for 6 people, so if you could consider that, that would be amazing. Thank you so much!

Sorry this wasn’t to your liking – you can push the rice into pan more and turn up the heat for it to “fry” more. Every pan and stove cooks a little differently – depending on thickness of pan, gas vs electric, etc.

For some reason, even after following directions precisely, my rice was too soft, would like it to be more of a fried rice type texture. Also recipe was too salty for me, so next time I will use less-sodium soy sauce.

This was great I didn’t have molasses so I substituted 1 Tbsp brown sugar, used ground ginger, and only used 1 egg and I used about 1.5 cups of rice and this was my best so far that’s I’ve made at home
