"Paella" Fried RiceAlan Richardson

Remember, you absolutely cannot make delicious fried rice using freshly cooked rice! If you cook the rice yourself (a day to a week ahead), buy long-grain (Carolina) rice and follow the package directions for making drier rice.

Otherwise, use leftover Chinese take-out rice.
