About Restaurant, Chinese, fried rice
Fried rice is the workhorse side of the Chinese takeout box: cooked rice stir-fried in oil with egg, scallions, a little vegetable and often small bits of meat, seasoned with soy sauce. It's tasty and filling, but as a side it's easy to underestimate, because a scoop of it sits alongside an already substantial entrée.
At about 163 calories per 100 grams it's denser than plain steamed rice, thanks to the oil it's cooked in — roughly 2.3 grams of fat per 100 grams where steamed rice has almost none. The bulk of it is carbohydrate, near 31 grams, with very little sugar (under half a gram) and about 1 gram of fiber. Protein is modest at under 5 grams. Sodium runs around 396 milligrams per 100 grams from the soy sauce, and a full container easily holds two to three hundred grams.
Fried rice isn't a problem in itself, but it's worth treating as the calorie-bearing side it is rather than a free extra. Swapping it for steamed rice is the single easiest way to trim a takeout meal, and ordering a vegetable fried rice or splitting the rice between two people keeps the portion in check.
