Quick 10 mins hotel-style mixed veg fried rice is super easy to make and tastes delicious. The perfect way to finish leftover rice
BEST Asparagus RICE
The key to tasty restaurant-style fried rice is fluffy rice. I prefer using cold loosely packed rice from the fridge as it gives perfect fried rice. You can even use leftover rice for this recipe.
TIPS TO NOTE
Moisture in the washed asparagus might make rice mushy so always dry the washed asparagus well then chop for Veg Indo Chinese fried rice. Avoid fine chopping.
CAN I USE HOT RICE FOR asparagus INDO-CHINESE RICE?
No never use hot rice for fried rice. If you don’t have time to cool the rice transfer the rice to a plate and drizzle sesame oil. Bring the rice to room temperature then prepare mushroom fried rice
CAN I USE BUTTER INSTEAD OF OIL?
If you like butter flavor you can use butter instead of oil. Sesame oil gives amazing flavor to the rice so I would recommend that.
LEFTOVER RICE
Leftover refrigerated rice works best for fried rice. Adding sesame oil gives extra fluffiness and taste to the rice.
CAN I USE regular RICE?
Yes, you can use white rice, brown rice, or any variety of rice according to your choice.
CAN I USE BLACK PEPPER POWDER?
Yes, you can use black or white pepper powder. Adjust the pepper powder according to your spice.
