Freeze it to use later? But cooked rice is one food that you cannot store long even in the fridge because of the risk of Listeria, if you don't use it tonight or freeze you should discard it.

Either eat it tonight, well heated or freeze it. I freeze cooked rice (cos I know you can't keep it for long in the fridge to reuse) and I've used it for rice pudding or just for defrosting in the microwave and then heating in the microwave for dinner. No-one in my house has ever, ever had food poisoning - should touch wood as I type that!!!

Make fried rice. Mix enough oil through the rice to just coat it and add it after you've cooked the bacon, egg pancake, onions and shrimps. When the rice is heated through, slosh over the soy sauce and serve.

Here is a microwave rice pudding recipe that uses left over cooked rice. Microwave rice pudding. 1 cup cooked rice 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup sultanas Knob of butter 1 beaten egg. 1 1/2 -2 cups water. Cook on high power for 5-7mins. *Would start the cooking with around11/2 cups water, if too stiff add extra throughout the cooking.*

Make little risoto balls.... add some seasonings of your choice... form into little balls with a square of mozzarella in the middle, flour, egg, crumb, chill.... then deep fry until golden.

Rice salad using any of the following: capsicums, peas, sweetcorn, pineapple, sultanas, tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, whatever you've got on hand. Add some salad dressing or mix one up.
