Notes

I recommend stirring in your rice properly to ensure that the flavor of the dressing mix is well distributed throughout the food.
Avoid overcooking the vegetables to achieve the appropriate texture. Only cook the vegetables until they have softened and the onions are transparent.
Ensure that your garlic is finely chopped to prevent it from being too noticeable when eating.
