So, what do you do when you have a bunch of leftover rice? You have a couple of choices.

1. Eat it as it is
2. Make it into something new and awesome!

Well, when I recently had a whole pile of delicious basmati rice leftover from a previous meal, I decided to make it into something new.

What I came up with was a super easy side dish you can put together in just 15 minutes – easy Curry Fried Rice! 😀

This tasty side dish happened one day when I just wasn't feeling like cooking a whole fancy pants dinner for everyone. lol

To turn this side dish into a lovely meal, I served it with some baked chicken breasts and a salad. Everyone loved it and I didn't have to put much work into dinner, so it was very much a WIN! 😀

This recipe is great for using up any leftover rice you may have and the flavours are wonderful!

The curry powder, garlic and other seasonings make this a warm and exciting side. It isn't really a spicy dish though, so if you're not sure about the heat level, don't worry – my son (3 year old) enjoyed it. 🙂

If you're a fan of spicyness, you could try using different types of curry powder or add a pinch of chili powder to kick it up another notch!

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do! 

If you try it, please let me know in the comments section below – I'd love to hear from you! 😀
