Yellow fried rice
November 19, 2009 • Hello. I am currently out of the country and unable to respond to comments and e-mails. Rest assured, however, that future posts have been scheduled so new recipes will go live almost everyday during my absence. I'll be back soon with lots of stories and photos. Ciao for now! ~ ConnieIt’s been a while since we last had Chinese-style fried rice. My husband and kids were excited. I had been planning on experimenting with a new recipe for fried rice for days. Hence, I reserved a bowl of pork adobo. If asado fried rice proved good, there was no reason why an adobo-flavored fried rice wouldn’t be better. The problem was coming up with a “new look”. Brownish fried rice, usually seasoned with soy sauce or oyster sauce, was already too ordinary. Besides, adding oyster sauce would ruin the flavor of the diced pork adobo that would go into the fried rice. So, I thought, something exotic looking, very aromatic but will not overpower the pork adobo and the mild flavors or the vegetables.

No, the coloring isn’t artificial. I added turmeric to make the dish yellow.
