Author's Notes

For the best fried rice, use leftover rice! The refrigerator dries out the rice just a little – this allows the rice grains to separate in the wok to get properly seasoned. If using fresh rice, cook the rice with about a cup less water than you would normally use. When cooked, fluff the rice with a pair of chopsticks or a fork, then let it sit uncovered until you are ready to fry the rice.
