I'm back with another fried rice recipe! I always tell people my favorite thing to cook is fried rice, and this is an example of why that is! It is so versatile and fun to play around with the mix-ins and flavors. This one has a unique flavor profile that feels super warm and cozy - perfect for winter and fall months! I used essentially the same techniques, but switched up a lot of the flavors.
This fried rice has curry powder, sage, and dried cranberries in it, which may sound strange but it is so delicious! I definitely would recommend this to anybody because it is just so good and easy to make. This could easily be made spicy as well, if you choose to use a hot curry powder, but I used mild because that's simply what I prefer! This is so easy to customize and make your own!
