Hi everyone, I have made too much rice for dinner which I am having with fish. Does anyone have any ideas for what to do with it for lunch? Also I can't remember if its advisable to re heat rice or not?

As long as you store airtight, put in the fridge when its cooled and reheat thoroughly, rice is fine for a couple of days.

I love just plain and simple egg fried rice with pea's and soy sauce! Yummy! You don't need anything other than fry light if you have a good non stick pan.x
 
I tend not to re-heat rice because if you don't reheat it thoroughly you can get food posioning.

I'd add tomatoes, boiled eggs & hot seasoning & eat it cold:D
 
Thanks everyone. Oh had already binned the left over rice before I could tell him not too argh. Will keep the ideas in mind tho thanks x
