Green Fried Rice

You asked, and here it is! This flavour-packed green fried rice has been on repeat in my kitchen. It’s quick, nutritious, and effortlessly delicious, thanks to the magic combo of Chilli Sambal and coconut oil.

It’s also super flexible—throw in extra veggies, use pre-cooked rice to save time, and add a fried egg if you fancy.
