Pork Fried Rice

Use leftover rice or pre-cook the rice and allow to cool. I also tend to use left over pork or pre-cook the pork before making the fried rice, allowing it to cool. Cook the mixed vegetables and drain of water.Submitted by: DANIELISTHOR

I had some trouble making this and wasn't sure how to fry the beef (I didn't use enough oil at first). I also used powdered red pepper and I think she meant flaked because it was too spicy. My fiance loved it tho! I may try it again another day. - 1/19/10
