Notes

  • I cook this in my 5 litre sunbeam sear & cook,but you can cook in any slow cooker.It is ready when the rice is tender.I just keep more water by the slow cooker & keep stirring through until it gets tender.This makes a BIG amount.But if you are lucky enough to have any left over it freezers well.
  • I created this Fried rice,because we love the Chinese inspired flavours. It is always asked for from my Family & Friends when we have get togethers. l hope you enjoy it just as much as we all do...
