I replaced 1 tbs of oil with sesame oil. I beat 2 eggs and scrambled in the pan before adding the rice and other ingredients. I omitted the fish sauce as I didn't have any. Squeezed lime over the top before serving. Love the jasmine rice! Delicious!

Very good recipe to start with--cut the sugar in half--double or triple the sauce, but not the sugar; add red pepper flakes, Sesame oil.

AWESOME recipe!! Hands down best fried rice I've made. We all gobbled this up.. Made with oyster sauce, (couldn't find fish sauce), extra soy sauce and I added two scrambled eggs, used chicken breasts and large shrimp, everything else was exactly. I loved the fresh basil!... LOVE this recipe! Some of the takeout places by me could learn a thing or two with this recipe.. And thank goodness finally a fried rice dish with NO frozen peas and carrots!! I completely forgot the sugar, so I don't think I will add any next time. I like this as is. I will make it often!

I used less oil than the recipe suggested but didn't have any basil on hand. I used grocery-brand sesame oil, and it didn't do great things for the dish, but had I used a good quality sesame oil, it would've been much better. I love cilantro, so I think I must've doubled the amount for that. Even without some ingredients, it was awesome!!

I rate this a five for being highly adaptable. I followed reviews to use less oil, use a bit of sesame oil, and I added about 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar at the end. It was a great touch. Instead of meat, I added pretty much all the veggies in the house. Peas, carrots, onions, bell pepper, finely chopped spinach, and mushrooms. I used fresh basil, but I couldn't quite detect the flavor. I grow my own basil, but if I didn't, I'd likely try the dry herbs. Make this how you like it. The fish sauce and soy sauce really make the flavor. Thanks for the recipe!

My family loved this. We don't care for fish sauce, so we substitute hoisin sauce. We also love cilantro, so usually double it. Have made it with chicken, shrimp and leftover pork chops. Very good!

This is the equivalent of what most Thai restaurants serve as their Thai Fried Rice! Be careful with the fish sauce...AKA don't spill it around because it stinks! (but it's good in the food). Be precise with the soy sauce, because if you add too much it gets way too salty.

Altered this recipe to be more like the Thai Pineapple Fried Rice I love! Rice ingredients: 2 cups jasmine brown rice (cooked two days prior), 2 tbsp vegetable oil, 2 tbsp sesame oil, 2 eggs, 5 garlic cloves minced, 1 cup pineapple chunks drained and halved, 1 chicken breast cubed, 10 frozen shrimp thawed, de-shelled, and halved, 1/2 sweet onion chopped, 1/4 cup raisins, 1/4 cup chopped cashew nuts, 1/2 cup of chopped scallions, 1/2 cup of chopped cilantro. Sauce: 1 tbsp white sugar, 1 tbsp fish sauce, 1 tbsp lite soy sauce, 2 tsp curry powder (personal stash from Shanghai). Prepare sauce and set aside. Heat oil. Fry garlic until golden. Add onions, chicken, and shrimp. Once cooked through, stir in beaten eggs, and scramble. Turn to high heat and add rice. Stir in sauce. Add cashews, raisins, pineapple, cilantro, and scallions. So good!

Delicious! I sort of tripled the recipe....this is what I did. I used 1.5 lbs of chicken breasts, diced and cooked with 5 cloves of garlic, 1 jalepeno pepper, and a large handful of finely diced baby carrots. Removed the chicken from pan, increased heat, and added in 7 cups of cooked brown rice (for the health factor...started out with 2 cups raw). Made a well in center and scrambled 2 eggs in it. Poured mixture of sauce (3 T. sugar, 3 T. fish sauce, 3 T. soy sauce, 1 t. sesame oil) and stirred to combine. Added the chicken back, along with a generous sprinkling of dried basil and cilantro (couldn't find fresh). Added in a handful of chopped green onions. Whole family liked it except picky 3 year old who wouldn't even taste it. I'm looking forward to the leftovers tomorrow! Thanks for the great recipe!

My fried rice was dripping, and I mean DRIPPING with oil when I made this recipe. Cut the oil in half, and enjoy the otherwise great flavor of this recipe.

This is a good fried rice recipe. However, it was not great. It is the first time I have seen fried rice without any egg. It needs at least one egg and I will add that the next time.

We thought this was good but not amazing. I don't understand the rave reviews... definitely a solid recipe but I think I need to try other fried rice recipes before making again. I also thought the fish sauce was overpowering; this could have been in my head however, because my fiance wasn't bothered by it at all.
