Vegan Option: Omit the eggs and use a plant-based protein, like tofu or tempeh, for a vegan version of this dish.
FAQ
Q: Can I use frozen vegetables for this recipe?
A: Yes, frozen vegetables work perfectly in fried rice. Just make sure to thaw and drain them well before adding them to the pan to avoid excess moisture.
Q: Can I use brown rice instead of white rice?
A: Absolutely! Brown rice adds a nuttier flavor and more fiber to the dish, and it works just as well in this recipe.
Q: How do I avoid mushy fried rice?
A: Using chilled, day-old rice is key to avoiding mushy fried rice. Freshly cooked rice tends to be too sticky, while chilled rice has drier grains that fry better.
Q: Can I make fried rice without soy sauce?
A: Yes, you can use coconut aminos as a soy sauce substitute, or you can create a lighter flavor by adding a splash of vinegar and a little salt.
