To begin our fried rice, it is important that we prepare the rice correctly. We will be using coconut flavored rice (plain jasmine rice can substitute). Begin by pouring the water into a pan and whisk in the coconut milk powder. Add the rice and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and cook for 12 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed. Spread the rice on a baking sheet and leave until cold. This step is crucial because if you use recently prepared rice then your fried rice will turn out mushy. Since making fried rice is a very rapid process it is also important that you do all of your prep work before you start stir-frying. Be sure to chop all vegetables and measure out all sauces before you begin.
