Some of this is okay, but how are you going to give this person fried rice tips (essentially what you are suggesting by adding the rice at the end) and not telling them to use day old rice thats been chilled in the fridge.

That one tip above all else will improve the texture of your meal tenfold!

Because I've tried that method and there was little to no difference. If you want that method, then go for it, but for a substantial and reliable meal that you don't have to prep the day before, it's not necessary.

I have tried a method where you rinse the rice first and cutting out a certain amount of water while leaving covered. For example, if you're making a cup of rice, use 1 3/4 cup of water. Leave at low heat and let sit covered. Once cooked in the same method I've mentioned earlier, stir then rec-cover for ten minutes.

Also if you still use the 2-to-1 measurements with rice, then rinse, cook, rinse again to rapid cool it, then dry it

Also it's not fried rice. It's stir-fry

You gotta be trolling or using gpt for yhis.... Rinse the rice??? After its cooked?! [Insert uncle roger meme] if your rice too wet you fucked up.

Anyone reading this do not follow those instructions.

Make some rice the day before and let it chill.. Slap that shit in a wok / skillet with some oil. Cook till it gets a little browned and crispy... Remove from wok and cook your other veggies / protein. Re add the rice and toss together and then serve.

If you dont want to prep rice day before just skip frying the rice and have a traditional stir Fry.
