   Helpful Tips:

   • Use Day-Old Rice:
   • For the best texture, use leftover rice that has been refrigerated. Freshly cooked rice can be too moist and clump together.
   • Customize Vegetables:
   • Feel free to add or substitute other vegetables like bell peppers, mushrooms, or baby corn based on your preference. You can even use frozen vegetables!
   • High Heat Cooking:
   • Ensure your skillet or wok is hot enough to achieve a nice, slightly charred flavor.
