I used shredded beef I had left over instead of the ham, and used the rice cooker. Didn't think it was going to come out as good as it did...plus it was super easy. Thanks! I'll be making this again for sure!

This was a hit at our weekly BBQ. I used Lop Chong (Chinese sausage as the meat and used long grain, brown rice. I had a lot of great comments on how good this dish is. I will definitely make this dish again.

Used rice cooker to minimize prep time...added garlic and left out the ham. Made this dish with jerk chicken. Yummy..even took some to work to share with the co-workers. Never thought I could make fried rice on a weekday after a long day at work. Left overs even better.

Yep. Never thought I could make it that way. We make it in quantities that we can eat right now and not hold over, because the 'next day' version doesn't make it for us.

The key here is smaller batches. Too much makes the cold rice steam and not crisp. I'm learning so much from Food Network! Thanks.

I loved this recipe! The rice was so good and yummy. I love the bits of ginger it gives it this very delicious unique flavor that goes with these ingredients. I agree, I would add a little bit of soy sauce. I did use spam because that's what I had on hand. I cubed it and followed the instructions. This is the first time I ever made fried rice and it was awesome.! The recipe was very easy to follow, this recipe is a keeper. Thanks!

This was the first time I had ever made fried rice, and it came out great! I didn't follow the recipe exactly. I didn't use any ham, and I used about two cups of veggies (1 cup frozen peas, corn, and carrots; 3oz. of frozen snow peas, and about 1/3 of a can of water chestnuts. I used pre-chopped green onions and yellow onion (which saved me a lot of time (: . I also used four-and-a-half cups of rice. I used a one-inch piece of ginger and added a table spoon of soy sauce to the rice. I also didn't remove the eggs before I added the rice. I will definately make this again!!

i guess i think that fried rice is easy. i didn't think the explanation for this recipe was easy. all those pans and transferring to bowls, lol. i really needed some pictures or something to keep track of it all!

the recipe was ok b/c you really can't mess fried rice up (using the right ingredients and not burning the rice.

i added soy as most everyone else (a must!.

used frozen peas. chopped carrots, 3-4 cloves garlic, left over ginger (a little more than the amount of garlic, one whole small onion, didn't have scallions. I really like ginger, so I guess i don't understand why ppl said too much in the reviews, but maybe I used less than recipe called for?

used brown rice to be more healthy(two cups, uncooked.

only three eggs to be more healthy.

less oil to be more healthy (although this keeps the consistency from being that perfect greasy fried rice!.

i used pork ribs, chopped into small cubes. maybe if you used spam which is a GREAT fried rice addition that would make up for the grease.

after browning the pork, I dumped all of the diced goods in, which I doubt really affected the quality of taste.

I also didn't really understand the final step b/c you must have a huge pan to cook all that rice the way the recipe describes! However, it might have been that I used less oil that really hurt the fact I didn't have enough surface area for the rice.

This recipe was easy to make however I changed/added a few things...
First:
I made a White Sauce (aka Yum Yum Sauce served at Japanese Steakhouses (Mix 1-1/4 cup Hellmann's mayonnaise, 1/4 cup water, 1 teaspoon tomato paste, 1 tablespoon melted butter, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1/4 teaspoon paprika, dash cayenne pepper. Allow the sauce to set overnight
I added about 1/2 Cup of White Sauce to the rice when it was in the wok

Second: I only used about a teaspoon of chopped Ginger
Third: I added crabmeat to the rice in addition to the ham
Lastly, when everything was combined I added soy sauce.

I know the White Sauce seems unusual but trust me it really makes the dish!

This recipe was soo yummy! I made it the first time with jasmine rice and it came out great! The 2nd time I made it with brown rice to make it a little healthier and it tasted exactly the same. Instead of the ham I used chicken breast cooked in teriyaki sauce cut in cubes. I have made this 3 times in a week! Highly recommended. (Be careful not to put too much ginger in it Serve with soy sauce :
