During my college days there
used to be a cafeteria which sold varieties of fried rice and Hong Kong fried
rice was one I was fantasized by the name Hong Kong Fried Rice and hence tried
it in my kitchen. It is similar like fried rice but the addition of cashews and
dried red chilli made it more delicious.
An addition of an ingredient
can change the name of the dish how Interesting!
I don’t know if this dish
is available in Hong Kong 😉 but what’s wrong in adding a place to a dish right?
