I This This recipe is a combination of several recipes I found in cookbooks, basically just using the ingredients I had and seasonings that I prefer.
Several years ago we used to have a local Chinese restaurant that made the most amazing Barbequed Pork Fried Rice so I was trying to get this dish to be close to what I remember that being like. It It That obviously requires a little planning ahead to make that the day before but it’s definitely worth it because the fried rice has a better consistency, not sticky and really absorbs the flavors of the sauces and seasonings.
And no, I don’t actually know how to eat fried rice with chopsticks although I would like to learn that skill, I just think they look really cool in the picture.
Now that I have some new Chinese cookbooks I’m looking forward to a Minnesota fall and winter practicing my wok skills. Por
The dish is made with leftover rice, which is ideal because it has a firmer texture that holds up well during frying.
