This leftover rice is cold and the texture is a little hard. However, it can actually make your homemade fried rice even tastier. Because the rice is not easily mushy and destroyed when cooked.

2. The basic spices are simply sliced

Indonesian fried rice has basic spices of shallots, garlic and red chilies. These basic spices are usually mashed or pulverized, added with shrimp paste, and only then sautéed. It is believed that grinding the basic ingredients can make fried rice delicious. But if you need fast food, this method is less practical.

As an alternative, you only need to slice the basic spices into thin slices. Then, immediately sautéed until wilted and fragrant. This method really saves time for grinding and washing cooking utensils becomes less. Apart from that, sauteed sliced ​​shallots can also give a savory and delicious taste like fried onions, you know.

By using margarine, cooking fried rice can be more practical than using oil. In addition, margarine also gives a savory taste to fried rice. So, you no longer need to add too much salt, especially seasonings with MSG.

4. Add fast-cooking stuffing or side dishes left over from the night before

What's called fried rice, it will definitely taste even more delicious if it's given a variety of fillings as a side dish. However, the addition of this stuffing should not make the process of cooking fried rice more complicated. Just use fast-cooking ingredients like sausage or corned beef.

You can use last night's leftover dishes, you know! Like fried chicken or empal which can then be shredded. Or meatballs and bakwan which can be sliced ​​before being added to the fried rice.

5. Use oyster sauce and soy sauce for seasoning

After the side dishes are sautéed with the spices, add the rice and stir until well blended. Then, add additional seasonings that will make the fried rice taste more complex and delicious, namely oyster sauce and sweet soy sauce.

This oyster sauce gives a savory taste to the fried rice and also a delicious and fragrant aroma. Meanwhile, sweet soy sauce gives a sweet taste and beautiful color to fried rice.

Adding oyster sauce and sweet soy sauce to fried rice doesn't need much. Just 1 tsp and 1 tbsp each, so it's not too salty or sweet. With this oyster sauce and sweet soy sauce, you no longer need to add salt, sugar and pepper. Practical, right?
