    Ingredients for Egg Fried Rice Recipe

    Rice - You can use cooked basmati rice or jasmine rice. Any Short grain or long grain rice can be used. Only important thing is the rice has to be a day old. Cooked, cooled rice makes the best fried rice.

    Eggs - Add good quality, free range, organic eggs.

    Aromatics - Ginger, Garlic, Green chillies & Onions are the only basic ingredients you need to make a perfect egg fried rice.

    Vegetables - carrots, capsicum and beans can be added.

    Sauces - I add only soy sauce in my egg fried rice. a dash of vinegar or chilli sauce can be added.

    Seasonings - msg is used in restaurant style egg fried which can be replaced with stock powder or a dash of extra soy sauce.
