immediallty serve and enjoy

This recipe is fun because it is very rapid though is can be easy because it is so repetitive. the reason for the rice needing to be refrigerated before hand is because it allows the rice to dry out so when it fries with all the oil and the different sauces is doesn’t become a soggy mess. It was one of my favorite dishes to order out from when growing up so it was interesting for me to learn how to make such a delicious dish. I hope that I explained it in a way that makes it easy to understand and you can try it at home.
