Frankly, I was a little disappointed in this recipe, especially after reading all the great reviews. I followed the recipe exactly, but I thought it lacked flavor. I then added considerably more soy sauce, and it was still bland. If I try it again, I may cook the rice with beef boullion instead of chicken, and perhaps add some ginger or other spice to liven it up a bit. This just didn't do it for us.

This is great! I serve it with Chinese Roast Chicken with Gravy (be sure to stuff your chicken with onions and fresh ginger)

That's the KEY!! Use cold rice you made the night before. I never thought it made a diffrence..but it makes ALL the difference. I used regular rice, but still it was great. Thanks for the tip and the great recipe!

Pretty good. I didn't soak overnight instead I just prepared rice as usual. It turned out a little dry but that's because I'm just learning how to cook still! *smile* Good taste.

This was really good but I had to had another egg. I think that was partly my fault by trying to double the recipe on my own not thinking about converting and i put in 2 CUPS OF RICE! haha. A little too much for 2 people. (5 stars)

Tho this was indeed great, i find i'm still looking for the Perfect fried rice recipe. I'd recommend washing the rice in ice water a couple of times before starting.

Just loved this! I kept finding things to add in. Minced pickled ginger,fresh garlic,bell pepper,carrot,last of the fresh peas from the garden. I did leave out the sprouts, just didn't have any on hand. I used leftover sushi rice too. I served it with Simple Stir Fry over it and even my picky picky kid ate it right up! Thanks for sharing this!
