Fusion Curried Fried Rice
This Curried fried rice is my way of making fried rice when I have a bowl of leftover rice at home and don't know what to do with it. This rice is a nice healthy lunch box for the kids and can be made within 15 minutes.
You can add any kind of vegetables, chicken, meat or any kind of seafood to it. Sometimes I even use dry anchovies and trust me it will taste good. Garnish it with coriander leaves or spring onions.
You can make it quick on a lazy day. Good for big gatherings also. Any kind of pickle will complement well with the fried rice or even with sriracha.
