I love fried rice and I recently got a Wok that is nicely seasoned now and thought I would try making fried rice.
However I never had success making rice, always too mushy.
I use Tilda basmati rice but I could get other if it's better for fried rice.
Could you suggest some recipe on how to prepare rice ?
Do not use basmati or jasmine rice.
I use short grain rice because that is what we normally have. (Long grain works just fine.) After we eat I put the leftovers into a plastic zip lock bag and put it into the fridge until the next day. This helps the outside dry out and prevents the rice from becoming mushy.
Don't be afraid to separate the kernels by rubbing clumps of rice between your palms before adding it to the wok.
Since I normaly cook with short grain rice this is what I have to do.
