Is plain fried rice okay to eat after a tonsillectomy?

Food after tonsils: If the fried rice has a sauce and is not too dry , them it should be ok. Generally soft foods are the best after a tonsillectomy. Soups and sauces with food are good.good luck and feel better!

Tonsillectomy: If you can tolerate eating fried rice after your surgery, it should cause no problem.

Chew thoroughly: If you chew each bite thoroughly and follow with sips of water, it should be fine. I prefer my patients to eat soft foods like yogurt, mashed potatoes, apple sauce, pudding, soups, broth, mac & cheese, scrambled eggs, noodles and oatmeal or nutrition supplement drinks like Ensure. Regular intake of liquids like popsicle, water, sherbet, sorbet, frozen yogurt, non-acidic fruit juice is important.
