Whenever I have leftover rice from dinner, I would make baked rice for lunch the next day.

Baked rice is so easy to make and requires minimal ingredients. Swensen used to be our favourite restaurant to go for baked rice until I realized that it is actually very easy to make them at home and it is so much more value for money as compared to eating them outside!

The recipe can have so many variations to it. Sometimes I even add in some Japanese curry roux cubes to make a curry version of baked rice. You can even swap the rice for spaghetti or instant noodles! I guarantee you that your kids (and adults too) will definitely love this fun and easy recipe!

I was a runner up in Singapore's Masterchef Competition Season 2. Cooking has been a passion of mine since I was young. I would always follow my grandma to the wet markets to buy groceries and watch her whip up amazing dishes. Always inspired by my grandma, I look to continue her journey in the culinary world.
