Java rice is a fried rice dish originating in the Philippines that is identified by its yellow-orange tint from the turmeric or annatto added during its preparation. Variants of the dish adds bell peppers/pimiento, paprika, and/or tomato ketchup to season and add flavor to the fried rice.[1]

Although its actual origin is uncertain, the java rice is associated with the Aristocrat restaurant in part due to their popularization of serving their chicken barbecue with this preparation of rice.[2][3][4]
