Mushroom Fried Rice

This delicious fried rice is an Asian-inspired recipe that my grandmother taught us when we were kids. She used to prepare this for some special occasions. We used to love this. She is from Sri Lanka (an Asian country). Some of you might have heard about it as “Ceylon”. It is a tiny little island. My grandmom knows all about Asian foods. She taught my mom and us as well.
