Tips:

- Rinse the rice: This will remove the starch and help the rice cook evenly.
- Use a good quality soy sauce: This will make a big difference in the flavor of the fried rice.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: This will prevent the rice from cooking evenly.
- Cook the rice over high heat: This will help the rice get a nice crispy texture.
- Add the eggs and vegetables towards the end of cooking: This will prevent them from overcooking.
- Season the rice to taste: Add more soy sauce, salt, or pepper to your liking.
