The word ‘innovative’ was used in the most casual way above, it’s not literal. Whatever leftover dish you have, toss it in a pan with plain rice and some cumin seeds. The product will be an ‘innovation’ every time you prepare it with a different leftover dish.

The nutrients will resurrect once the dish is tossed inside the pan along with rice and Cummins, the warmth and subtle spiciness of Fried Rice packs a punch of satisfaction for a typical Indian belly.
