The ultimate storm comfort food.
It’s that time of the week when our kitchen cupboards are looking a little sad. With a growing shopping list stuck to the fridge ready to be brought to the supermarket at the weekend, we usually try and scrape together what we can so we don’t have to do the big shop midweek.
And with a little digging, we will definitely find all the ingredients we’ll need to make this tasty chicken fried rice and we’re sure you’ll have them too.
In less time than it would take a takeaway to be delivered, you’ll have this meal for six ready to serve in no time… and will surely be going back for seconds.
And why not double up on the ingredients if possible? Getting dinner and tomorrow’s lunch sorted in one – win!
