Fried Rice
The trick to fried rice is using rice that has been previously cooked. Older rice is dryer, improving the texture of the final dish. Rice that is 2 or 3 days old is preferable, but 1 day old rice is also fine. In a pinch, you can spread freshly cooked rice on a baking sheet to allow the moisture to escape and throw it in the freezer to cool it off.
