A long long week


By Cooking in Westchester (Visit website)




This has been a difficult week at work. The stress of things has just been exhausting! These troubled times can be very demanding, I actually think cooking and walking are extremely therapeutic. I am not sure what I would do if I did not have food, in my life. Food nourishes and sustains and cheers in the worst of days.
This fried rice was my first time cooking with really old and left over rice as in rice from a chinese takeout package. I was surprise how well it worked out. This recipe is an indo-chinese variation of fried rice.
