This recipe tasted ok, my main problem is that it is so bland as is, and not even extra veggies could revive it. I also think that using the amount of pepper it says is way too much so I used half. Its a good recipe to be able to say, hey, I made fried rice! But its not the recipe that would make you want to go through the effort instead of making the phone call to your local Chinese restaurant. Yes, its vital that you use cold rice. What I did was that same week I made rice for another dish, and made double the rice. I put the extra rice into a ziploc bag, then froze it. At the time of making the chinese rice, I put it into a bowl, sprinkled some water and microwaved until it was cold but no longer frozen. The rice itself and everything came out great, its just now I'm at the point where I know I can make the fried rice, I just need a recipe that makes me say "wow" and this is not it.
