Fried rice is probably the best known
Chinese dish. It’s made with steamed rice stir-fried in a wok mixed with other
ingredients such as egg, vegetables and meat. The list of ingredients usually
varies from country to country. This dish originated from China and from there
it reached most countries in Asia, the Western countries and even some in
Africa. Also it is very common to find fried rice in any Chinese banquet but
when it is consumed as a homemade dish it is mostly made with leftovers.
However, it’s not considered a Chinese everyday dish.
Due to the changing recipe on each country,
fried rice has different presentations. For example, Muslim countries have
created a vegetarian option using egg fried rice and in Indonesia is a spicy
dish called “nasi goreng”. In the US it is considered as fast food and in South America, each
country has its own variation, but the most remarkable is the Chinese Peruvian version
called “chaufa”.
