A few quick notes
1. Have the cooked rice ready
This version calls for rice that is already cooked. Have that ready before starting the pan, and keep its amount separate from dry rice when checking what you need.
2. Set out the finishing ingredient
Keep the finishing ingredient within reach while the main preparation is going on. Add it at the step in the method so the last job is easy to complete.
3. Have the pan ready for its first job
Read the pan-heating step before beginning. Have the ingredients for that stage ready, then follow the heat and additions in the recipe’s order.
