I believe rice is OK to re-heat for 24 hours maximum, after being in a fridge. Also you must make sure you reheat thoroughly to kill any bacteria. Add a little boiling water before cooking to stop dish drying out.
Personally I would put the dish into a frying pan with some oil and re-fry, if you stir well and make sure pipping hot should be OK.
I regularly FREEZE rice rather than just putting in fridge then recook.

Melt a little butter or margarine in a frying pan, saute at med heat until it reaches your desired temp. Some of the tips people are leaving are for steamed rice. Your fried rice will not be good if reheated with water. BTW, its not great heating fried or sauted foods in the microwave. The butter or margarine will keep your rice moist. If you use butter, don't let it scorch.

It's fine to reheat anyway you want. Microwave works great.
Reheating rice is fine. If it gets a little dried out add a touch of chicken broth.

Yes it will be fine, providing the rice has been cooled and stored in fridge. I do it with take aways often and have never suffered for it. Make sure it is well heated right through tho'

Yes you can, I do it all the time. I never heard that re-heating rice is bad. That's a new one on me and I'm a Islander, I eat and re-heat rice all the time.

Lots of people here are saying OK.
I personally wouldn't even chance it, it's risky even if you have a tummy lined with asbestos !
Even in an airtight container in the fridge - for what it's worth - NO.
Do yourself a big favour - have a sandwich....xxx

Yes it will be fine if it was in the fridge. Warm it in the conventional oven, better for rice than microwave. ( experience)
