9 Reviews of Special Fried Rice (Rachael Ray's)

This is EXCELLENT! I made my rice early in the day and refrigerated it for ease in making at dinner. The veggie chopping was the longest part to this recipe ~ the rest is quick and simple. The result is delicious and we have a new fried rice recipe! Thanks for posting a keeper!

    All I can say is YUM!! This was absolutely delicious. I had never used Tamari before. I almost didn't buy it, thinking I would just use regular soy sauce. I am so glad I used Tamari. It definitely has a different flavor. Make sure that you have all of your ingredients chopped/grated and ready to go--including the rice. Once you start the actual cooking, you won't have time to chop the veggies or grate the ginger. I added the peas when I added all of the other vegetables and everything turned out great. There is no doubt I will make this again.

    I thought this was great fried rice! The changes I made were to omit the bell pepper and I added mushrooms and bean sprouts. I will definitely make this again when we have "make your own takeout" night.

    This was AWESOME!! I cooked up some chunks of pork loin and added to the rice to make a meal out of it! This will become a regular at our house!

    Excellent fried rice recipe, Roxygirl-- thanks! Only change I made was to omit the bell pepper, and added a very small amount of dark sesame oil and sugar to the eggs before scrambling them. Very tasty meal with some leftover chunks of roast beef mixed in. --Heather

    This rice was excellent. I knew it would taste wonderful while it was cooking. I omitted the peas because I'm not a fan and I greatly reduced the garlic because well, I don't like using large amounts of it. I used white Basmati rice. This recipe is indeed special-- so flavorful; tender rice and some crunch with the vegetables. A definite keeper. I did have to add a bit of oil. Look for my photo which I'll be uploading later.

    I had to make a few subs with the veggies b/c I was using what I had on hand at the end of the week (didn't want to run to the grocery). Very easy, filling, and so delicious. Will definitely be making this recipe again!

    Roxygirl said it all...delicious, colorful, versatile and kid friendly. I have made this many times now and found I have to double the recipe if I expect any left for my lunch the next day. I only use Basmati rice which I find good for this recipe as it is a firmer rice. The only thing I do different is add meat. I cutup leftover meat from meals at home and dining out and add them to a bag in I keep in the freezer. When the bag is full it's time for Fried Rice!! I use a mini-food processor for the veggies which makes the prep go quickly. I have used Penzey's Chinese Ginger when I have not had fresh with excellent results. On one occassion my children requested this and I found I had no meat... I used Spam. They loved it!! BTW: Guess what I made for supper tonight... Fried Rice ! Thanks for posting Roxy Girl !
