Details on how to make corn fried rice – coming soon!

For the amount of the above ingredients, I got almost 2 small bowls of corn fried rice.

Both pictures are from the same fried rice but they were captured under different locations of light. The true color is the same as the picture from the left, light golden yellow color.

Okay, I have instructions for you to make it now. (August 18, 2022 5:20 p.m.)
