Don't know how I forgot this.. left overs. Can't count the times I've heard "Oh no, not that again!" from my brother and sisters back in the day. Now a days, they scour my fridge for them, lol.
Fried rice leftovers is one of my favorites. Growing up I didn't know rice even existed. Mashed potatoes and potatoe salad yes, but never rice. I guess it was because of growing up in the south on a dirt farm.
Once I did some time in the orient and as you would know.. rice is all too common. Matter of fact, rice is served with every meal. Potatoes in general they never heard of and after I introduced them to it they would rather have their rice, lol.
Rice with soy sauce and fish sauce is the fundemental essential to the majority. However, I personally don't like soy or fish sauce.. at all.
Then one day I went deep sea fishing hawaiian style and was introduced to cooking hawaiian style. We caught yellow fin tuna during seaspn and Mahi-mahi during season. Hawaiians prefer their fish raw and after fishing back at the dock it was common to filet and eat the fish raw with some soy sauce. And lots of beer. Our crew would grab two or three of the fish and give it to "the cook" who immediately headed for the cabana.
After the boat and gear was put away we all headed for the cabana carrying coolers of fish and beer. Rice and fresh fish awaited us. Those were the days. Good friends, good food and good wahines (cough cough).
Leftovers? Oh yeah..
Nothing like leftover wahines
