The secret to the best Chinese fried rice is onions, garlic and sesame oil, you may add in cooked chicken, beef, pork or shrimp, also you may add in some frozen thawed peas or fresh sauteed or canned mushrooms, whatever you have handy in your fridge! - for this recipe it is best to use slightly undercooked rice that is more firm that soft the best recipe is the firm option on my Kittencal's Perfect Cooked White Rice (Soft, Medium or Firm) the amount of egg does not matter, if you like lots of egg then use as many eggs as desired, if you like a little heat then add in some cayenne pepper, I most always do you and you will probably need to adjust the soy sauce to your liking - you will love this rice!
