I love regular stuffing, don’t give me wrong. I LOVEEEEE rice so much more than bread, that’s all. (of course, I prefer noodles over rice too. lol!)

One day I thought, why isn’t there an Asian flavored rice stuffing recipe out there? Most of the rice stuffing recipes I saw on Google were just wild rice stuffing, and I wanted to create something more fun, flavorful and festive!

SO here it is! My Fried Rice Stuffing Recipe!
With my Korean glazed turkey or Lemongrass turkey, sweet & spicy cranberry sauce, or yuzu cranberry sauce… This is heavenly!

Let’s get started!

Peel and chop 2 persimmons as well. I always cut them first and remove the stem. Persimmon is a very tricky fruit to remove from the stem & peel, so I always quarter them first. Please be careful!

You could use butternut squash instead of persimmons if you prefer. 🙂

For the fried rice stuffing, we are going to use 2 links of delicious Chinese sausage. They are denser than regular sausage – which has a great bite when they’re cooked. Delicious!

Also, chop a generous amount of herbs: sage, thyme, rosemary, and Italian flat parsley. Yes, they are very similar to poultry seasoning, and yes, you could substitute them with poultry seasoning. Also, chop 2 green onions because this is fried rice stuffing! 😉

When it’s boiling, add 6 cups of cold rice (it must be cooked!), persimmon, 2 tbsp goji berries (or cranberries), and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
