Notes
- My favorite way to use up leftover rice is to make fried rice, stir fry, or Mexican rice. I just heat a little oil in a skillet and toss the rice with some seasonings or other ingredients while heating. The oil keeps the rice from sticking together and gives it the perfect texture for these types of recipes.
- It’s easy to give your rice a little flavor by switching out the water for broth and by adding a few easy ingredients such as finely chopped onion or garlic.
- Drain off all the excess water completely before adding the water for cooking.
