This is very similar to the Chinese Fried "Rice" recipe, but that is almost a main dish where this one is a meatless side dish. Of course you could add meat or other veggies, such as bean sprouts, onions, mushrooms, etc. This is very good and tastes very much like real fried rice. Click the photo to see a close-up.
