How do I store leftover nasi goreng?

Do you have a portion left over? Let the nasi cool down quickly and store it in a sealed container in the fridge. You can easily keep it for 2 to 3 days. Reheat it thoroughly in a hot pan with a small drop of oil. Tip: fry a fresh sunny-side-up egg to go with it!

Which rice is best to use for this nasi goreng recipe?

For the best results, use rice that has already fully cooled, for example, leftovers from the day before. Dry, cold rice fries much better in the pan without becoming soggy. Do you only have fresh rice? Then spread it thinly on a flat plate or baking sheet after cooking so it can properly steam out and cool down.

Can I also make this nasi recipe vegan?

Absolutely! The nasi base is already completely plant-based. To make the recipe entirely vegan, omit the fried egg or replace it with pieces of fried tofu or tempeh for extra protein.

What herbs are in Nasi goreng?

I mostly use fresh ingrdients in my nasi: ginger, garlic, chilipepper.
