Your own personal jesus

It is all a question of liquids and oils , it sounds like you did not fry your precooked rice ( or inserted oil in the cooking process ) , you must add oil so the rice will not stick , if it won't stick it wont fry in the wok in chunks and you won't get rice dough. another reason might be that you use to much water when you make the precooked rice.

Play with these to factors and you will probably get it right.

Hello there

My guess is that you dont wash rice previous from its starch to frying/cooking.

possible reasons:

1. when you precooked the rice you used too much water and it came out too sticky (i hoped you precooked the rice ;)). this canbe solved by washing the rice well before cooking and using less water and very low heat when cooking.

2. the oil wasnt hot enough before frying. dont use to much oil and make sure its very hot before putting in the rice.

3. the rice should be fried for a very shot time, if the oil is very hot one minute should be enough

I know I don't know it all

Check my google webpage

Use day-old and cold rice, never hot rice or freshly cooked rice.

Rules regarding starch and sticky rice are true here too - so if you are going for fried-rice to begin with, you can even under cook it to make sure you get single-grain results.
