Cooking tips 💡

  • Do not cook the pickled mustard stem at the beginning, as it will lose its crisp texture; adding it at the final step and lightly tossing is key.
  • Use the instant rice without reheating to achieve the authentic, fluffy texture of restaurant-style fried rice.
  • The salty-savory depth of curry and the sweet-tangy kick of ketchup create a rich, savory umami flavor.
