Bangladeshi Fried Rice
Bangladeshi Fried Rice
While this looks simple and basic, and it is, it’s honestly one of the best fried rice recipes that I’ve eaten. With rice being the main staple in Bangladesh, it is eaten with every meal, including breakfast. Add in vegetables, chicken, or sausage to the rice to make this a main course.

- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 6 dried red chilies
- 1 large white onion sliced
- 3 large eggs beaten
- 3 cups day old cooked rice
- 2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
Instructions
- Heat up cooking oil in a large sauté pan or wok over medium high heat. Sauté the dried chilies for 1 minute. Remove from the pan and save.
- Add in the onions. Cook for 6-8 minutes until browned.
- Salt the onions.
- Add in the eggs to one side of the pan and scramble.
- Add in the rice, making sure to break up all of the clumps. Fry for 5 minutes.
- Turn off the heat. Stir in the cilantro and the fried red chilies.
