  1. I love the simplicity of this recipe...so easy and tasty. The texture is different then fried rice made with cold rice however; the taste is almost spot on. However next time I will add a bit more more soy sauce, and I will add the cut carrot directly to the rice cooker as it got a little too mushy. Made and reviewed for the Best of 2010 Recipe Tag Game.
     
  2. This is a great recipe...easy and tasty. Just be sure you have a large rice cooker. It was too much for my little one, but it worked just fine in a saucepan. Made for ZWT #6 and I'm a Quisine Queen!
