I've made this several times with left-over regular rice and a variety of vegetables. It is a very good basic recipe. My family loves it and asks for it regularly. I even add left-over bits of chicken and call it the whole meal.

This recipe was alright. Next time I won't do the snow peas. The ones I used added too much of their flavor. I'm going to do more garlic next time. I served it with beef stir-fry. It was good, it just wasn't awesome.

Made this rice with Asian orange chicken also found on this site.The two recipes were a perfect match.Putting the rice in the fridge overnight is important,or at least I think so.It was the best fried rice I ever made.Thanks.

I have used this recipe twice. The first time the rice was ok but better with a few modifications. Cooking the rice ahead of time and refrigerating it makes a big difference. I didnt have the time the first time to do this. also, i used regular oil and sesame oil to fry the rice in and the sesame oil added a much needed flavor. i used frozen peas and carrots and chopped onion and added the beaten egg over the mixture and cooked until the rice was no longer shiny. Cooking the egg this way worked better for me than frying it in advance. I cooked the bean sprouts seperately in sesame oil and soy sauce and added it to the rice in the end. YUMMY. Thank you so much for the recipe!

I loved this simple dish. I made it into a one pan recipe. I also used a more healthy brown rice and I had frozen peas on hand and used them instead of snow peas. I have already filed this one away for future use.

Typically I make rice and no one eats it but me. I tried this recipe and my family complained that I didnt make enough rice. This is a very easy, low mess way of doing it. I added my egg to the boiling water/soy mixture and beat it like I would egg drop soup. Added the rice, some green onion tops, black pepper to taste. I used chicken broth instead of water or boullion as well. Doing it that way I didnt' need any salt either, it was perfect (I'm a saltaholic and it was still fine). Very nice, thanks.

This was my first attempt at fried rice, and it was a success!!! I halved the recipe, but love eggs so I added some extra. I also put in some corn and bell peppers, i was also very generous with the soy sauce

Ok. Nothing special... very plain, not really like what I've gotten from Chinese places at all. Edible, but I wouldn't make it again.

This was great. I used regular long grain rice I cooked and refrigerated overnight, then I sauteed the onion in melted margarine and added a little hot oil with the cubes of chicken boullion before adding the cooked rice. I didn't have any snow peas or bean sprouts, but it was still tasty with just rice, onion, seasoning and egg. Will definitely make this again.

Ever have your husband tell you at the last minute he needed to bring a side dish to a cookout? That was my night. So i searched through my cabinets and realized that i hadn't been to the store lately, but i did have a TON of rice. I searched for rice and found this. I did not make this expecting it to taste like my usual Chinese bistro's rice, i made it because i had all the ingredients, it was cheap and it could feed a lot of people. I cooked the rice the night before and refrigerated it. In the morning i did the rest. I doubled the recipe. The only soy sauce i had was a handful of the little packets, and it was enough.. .more than enough. I couldn't have made this had the rice not been refrigerated over night. I added Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce, the red Chinese sauce with the rooster on the bottle, about a teaspoon. It really spiced it up. Gave it a great taste, just a little kick. It was a hit at the cook out. Cheap, quick and tasty... what more could you ask for?

This came out good for us - had less rice so used 2 eggs (just beat them and then tossed them into the hot rice - I dont like big chunks of egg). First, stir fried the onion with some julienned carrot and shelled edamame. The cut up a half dozen shrimp and threw them in too - came out as a great side and used up my leftover rice from chinese takeout the other day. Thanks!

I made the rice with a frozen bag of stif fry veggies I found in the supermarket (great time saver!). I also added fresh bean sprouts. The rice turned out well, but I didn't have enough veggie oil to fry the rice very well. Having cold rice is the key to this one!! I will keep making :)

I was afraid I would mess this up because I have never made anything like this before. I took some ideas from other recipes and it turned out delicious. I added some scrambled egg, carrot, celery, mushrooms, and diced ham. Used Peanut oil, hot garlic sauce, a dash of ginger. We will be making this many times again, my husband ate all of it..no left overs! Thanks for the idea.

A recipe I would give four stars to because of my changes, but it tasted soooo good, I think it's worth the five! To start with, I cut the recipe in half. I made the rice around 10 am, stuck it in the fridge, and fried it up around 5 pm, which worked well. I used regular rice cooked in water with chicken bouillon. I used maybe 1/3 cup onion, didn't have snow peas or sprouts so I used about ½ cup celery plus a small can of sliced mushrooms. I stir fried the onion, celery, and mushrooms together before adding the rice. I used two eggs (remember, I halved the recipe), cooked up in a separate pan. Once they were scrambled, I mixed them and the rice in with the stir-fried vegetables. Personally, I really like soy sauce, so I used more like 1½ TBS for my half batch. I added a sprinkle of ground ginger, but I didn't notice it. If I decide to add ginger again, I'll have to add a little more. It turned out really tasty, although it was REALLY sticky. I think it was the rice (cheap rice!), and in the future I'll either use instant rice or a better quality of regular rice. Thanks for a great recipe, it DID taste a lot like what you might get in a restaurant!
