How long does cooked basmati rice keep in the fridge?

[Servalan]

I cooked a biryani the night before last and still have some left overs (so it has been in the fridge about 36 hours)

Should it still be OK to eat? (I know that rice is one of those foods you need to be careful of food-poisoning-wise so thought I'd better check!)

Thanks

my kids will happily eat biryani even if its a week old. but it never lasts that long. 36 hours is nothing.

it is advised to eat refridgerated rice within 24 hours of it being cooked.

Can reheating rice cause food poisoning?

I agree with Seona1978.

Left over rice is apparently a major cause of food poisoning.

Oops - I've already eaten it...
