About Riz cantonnais

Riz Cantonnais, also known as Cantonese Fried Rice, is a classic dish originating from Cantonese cuisine in southern China. It typically contains jasmine rice stir-fried with a mix of protein such as shrimp, pork, or chicken, scrambled eggs, vegetables like peas, carrots, and scallions, and is flavored with soy sauce and sesame oil. This dish combines complex carbohydrates from rice, protein from the meat and eggs, and vitamins and fiber from the vegetables, making it a balanced meal option. However, its healthiness depends on preparation—using minimal oil and reducing sodium content can make it more diet-friendly. Traditionally a way to use leftover rice, Riz Cantonnais is versatile and can be tailored to suit various dietary preferences, including vegetarian and gluten-free options. Though flavorful and satisfying, it's important to enjoy it in moderation due to potential high sodium and fat content in some variations.
