3. Add in chopped garlic and onion, stir fry and mix well.
4. Add in shrimps, cook till change colour.
5. Add in potatoes, stir fry and cook till potatoes medium done.
6. Then add in chopped carrot and green bean, stir fry for a while
7. Put in the cooked rice, toss well to combine.

One more thing, my mom just taught me to add little salt, oil and stock powder into rice before cook it in rice cooker, you will have more tasty fried rice.

The use of potatoes in fried rice is very new to me, Good idea to add some texture to the fried rice.
I do agree with the fact of adding seasonings while boiling the rice. I did that too when I mass fried rice (300pax) for the students in my ex school. Saves a lot of seasoning work when the seasoning is already done when cooking the white rice.
nice & yummy fried rice~~i feel like eating it even after my lunch ..heheeee
ReplyDeletevery tasty bowl of fried rice and i'm all ready to grab the bowl:D

ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence, I just made green bean fried rice last Sunday. Interesting that you had added potato in yours.
ReplyDeleteLovely! This looks like yummy comforting food. Never thought to add potato and will try it.
ReplyDeleteBoth husband and wife cook so well makes for a bunch of very happy and luckiest children on earth!
ReplyDeleteYummy! I also learned the trick of using chicken rice to fried rice to make it more fragrant. I saw the hawker cook prepared the fried rice that my hubby ordered and he used chicken rice. That was my "Aha" moment.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing this, im going to try to cook tis :) haha..
ReplyDeleteI like addition of green beans in fried rice and with the ikan bilis....it is already so good without the potatoes. Maybe I am not used to having potatoes in rice.
ReplyDeleteI've never made fried rice at home. This sounds great...I love the ingredients in it. They're different than what I've seen in other fried rice recipes. Great tips!
ReplyDeleteGood idea to add seasoning to the rice while cooking and whose fingers are those? Your son's? Soft, velvety skin! Mine were like that, long, long ago! Ha, Ha!
