Day-old rice is drier and makes for the best fried rice. Simply boil the white rice for this recipe the night before and refrigerate it. If you're not planning ahead, then you can boil the rice just before making this recipe. Just spread the hot cooked rice on a baking sheet to cool (about 10 minutes) before using it. You can also substitute a chopped small onion for the scallions, if scallions aren’t a staple in your pantry. And for some extra flavor, add a tablespoon or two of chopped fresh cilantro or basil at the last minute right before serving.
