Fried Rice With Red Yeast Wine Residue

Looks quite a weird fried rice but the taste is good and very healthy.  If you see the ingredients you would understand what I'm trying to say.  This rice dish has at least 5 colour ingredients.  Someone told me if you eat 5 coloured food daily, your body  [5 main organs] is well taken care.

Wah, this fried rice must be very fragrant with the red wine residue! I wonder if this red yeast wine is sold in shops. I have not seen it before.
