Cooking the rice the day before would have definately helped, I also didn't have any sesame oil. I am sure that it would have make all the difference. I was just looking for a quick recipe to serve with some breaded shrimp and it did serve the purpose. I will try again next time I have leftover rice. ;o)

It was pretty tasty, and tasted like good takeout. I hate when I order rice and its dry, fortunately this didn't have that problem

Everyone loved it just as it is. I have made it several times and added any veggies I had leftover. Always wonderful.

Really good and easy. I used frozen mixed veges since it was all I had and low sodium soy sauce. It turned out great, thanks for the recipe.

This recipe was really good. I was a little perplexed as to what to do with the sesame oil but I just poured some on top and then mixed it in. Not sure if it made a difference in the taste or not. Nonetheless, my family really enjoyed this and I will definatley make it again.

This was great! I left out the carrot because I hate cooked carrots. I would have like to have measurements for the soy sauce and sesame oil since this was my first time and I had no idea how much would make it taste right, but after a long time of adding a little bit at a time, it came out perfect. I would say my measurements were about 2 Tbsp of Soy Sauce and 1 Tbsp of Sesame, but I used half the amount of rice and I love the taste of Sesame oil.

I make this for lunch all the time. It's great! I like to use leftover brown rice and add some frozen chopped broccoli as well.

This was delicious! I only made one change and added sliced scallions at the end of the cooking process.

Very good. I actually used the minute rice, and I think it might have been even better if I had used the long-cooking rice. I will make it again.

This was super delicious. I added some packet of fried rice seasoning I found in the Asian section and it was great. My first successful attempt at fried rice. Thanks!

This was very good and simple. I used Birdseye Steamfresh brown rice. I cooked it early in the day and then refrigerated it. The grains stayed nicely separated. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

I just finished enjoying this recipe, and my whole family loved it! I just added 1/4 chopped onion, since I love onion in fried rice. Sesame oil is a must and should NOT be optional, in my opinion. I might also try adding chopped water chestnuts next time for added crunch. Delicious!

This was my first time making fried rice. I made rice in my rice maker and I also sauteed some onion and garlic in the oil. I had a frozen bag of mixed veggies (corn, carrots, green beans, and peas) and added that to the oil, onion and garlic mixture...then I added the rice and followed the rest of the recipe. It was really good! I really think the onion and garlic really added to the flavor.

This recipe really needs some sesame oil or oyster sauce. It just tastes like rice with soy sauce without.

Made this for a party and everyone raved about it. I made the rice a day in advance which was a suggestion from another recipe and that worked well. Also, I used fresh peapods instead of frozen peas and they were delicious.
