Fried rice is a popular dish in a range of Asian cuisines as well as a staple national dish of Indonesia.<\/p>\n
The comforting meal is typically made with leftover ingredients which lends itself to endless variations, just like this recipe by chef Tim Clowers.<\/p>\n
In a video posted on his TikTok account (@cheftimclowers), the cooking expert said: “This is my favourite way to make fried rice – I start with day-old rice.”<\/p>\n
Some people avoid reheating the grain for fear of falling ill, but NHS guidance states that rice can safely be reheated as long as it is kept in the fridge for no more than one day.<\/p>\n
The NHS website reads: “When you reheat rice, always check that it’s steaming hot all the way through. Do not reheat rice more than once.”<\/p>\n
