I love Fried Rice!! Looking forward to the chicken fried rice pron.
That's a real nice wok. What's the brand?

The rice looks outstanding Zippylip.
Can I ask what you put in sauce wise? Just soy sauce?
I picked up a nice authentic steel wok online for about $30.
I've done fried rice many times and would give some comments.
- It's much better with day old rice, opposed to recently cooked rice.
- Right before you toss in the rice and everything else throw in an egg or two.
- A dash of sesame oil is also adds a nice nutty flavor.
- Sesame seeds and scallions to top it off.
I've generally always used frozen veggies for fried rice, never had a problem with them. I forget who, but someone makes a good frozen stir fry bag, with onions and peppers.
That sounds really cheap for a real wok, sounds like I should've done some more poking around before I bought the other one. I did try the day old rice on the next cook and it was better. As for the eggs, I wanted them in here but had none, they do add a great touch to fried rice. Have a severe sesame allergy so I although I love it, must avoid it like the plague lest I blow up like a Willie Wonka blueberry.
Completely missed the scallions too, will do on the next batch - thanks
Thanks! I've never used frozen, but I have been eying the Birdseye stir fry veggie mix. Sure would be easier to just have them in the freezer without worrying they'll go bad in the fridge before you get around to cooking them. Not that I know anything about that...:roll:
I have been using Costco frozen stir fry veggies for a long time, they are real handy and and work fine
Zippy your meal looks great, I do similar. If you have a Trader Joes by you, they have a new stir fry sauce thats very good!!
Thanks, for lunch I just choked down the last of the chicken version that I made Monday night. I belong to Sam's Club, will have to check out what they have as well. I do have a Trader Joes about 2 blocks from my office also, will have to have a look see.
