Fried Rice requires rice that is slightly drier than regular rice. It helps keeping the grains of rice separated.

steaming the rice also does something magical to the texture or the rice. it becomes more springy, more chewy and it reacts better one the wok ! it also keeps a beautiful shine without being too oily.

this new steaming method for rice is now officially my favourite recipe to cook rice for making Fried rice.
