I actually cook the fried egg first, then add the rice. As I cook the rice, the eggs get scrambled at the same time :-)
But yes, rice coated with a little bit of egg makes it taste better.

me too, I usually cook the egg before the rice as well, this is a different way of coating the rice with egg :-)

My family loves fried rice, I always fried the rice first and add the eggs later so I can get that nice yellow color on my fried rice. I am sure yours are yummy (^.^)

I can eat fried rice all the time, I like cooking a bit more rice so I can have some leftover to make for a quick lunch and I just make it with whatever I have in the fridge.

me too, fried rice is a wonderful one-dish meal to make so like you, I sometimes cook extra rice to make fried rice the next day :)

Normally I just leave the steamed rice to cool before frying. I don’t keep rice overnight in fridge. :)
Fried rice is a good choice when one is run out of idea on what to cook. :)

yeah some people don’t like to use overnight rice. Sometimes, I cook fresh rice but refrigerate them for a few hours and they are ready for frying :)

This is a lovely fried rice! Egg and green onion are my favorite parts of fried rice anyway, so this is perfect.
