• For a spicier kick, add a dash of chili sauce or red pepper flakes.
• You can also add cooked shrimp or tofu for variation.
• Serve the fried rice as a main course or as a side dish with your favorite Asian-inspired meal.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover fried rice can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
