Fly Lice (?)

I like to call Fried Rice "Fly Lice". Why? Because, it is common of a Chinese person to speak like this. It is completely comical, however. I'm Chinese, in fact. This is why, I have attempted to make FRIED RICE!!!!!

I actually have experience in cooking fried rice. It all started with my Korean friend. His house was the hang-out spot, and when we got hungry my friend would make the best fried rice I have ever eaten. It usually consisted of onions, vegetables, spam, rice, egg, sesame seed oil, and a lot of cheese on top when it was finished. After that, we would top it all off with Sriracha hot sauce. What a great meal..

Since then, it has been one of my life-long goals to cook fried rice just as good as my friend did. I've tried numerous times, I'd say 20+. But now, I have created my own style of cooking fried rice. I used to imitate my friend's style. I used to observe what he did and why, and I copied it distinctly. However, due to a difference in ingredients I often produced different results, both visually and taste-wise.

My fried-rice consists of:
Half an onion
Minced garlic
Three eggs (scrambled)
Frozen vegetables, mixed
Whatever meat I have (spam, chicken, pork)
Old rice**
Soy sauce
Sesame Seed Oil (if I have it)
Lots of pepper
Garlic salt

Now, you can see how much preparation goes into making fried rice. However, the results are filling and admirable. **Why do we use old rice? We use old rice because cooking fried rice with older rice makes it crunchier, harder. Eating fried rice with soft rice just doesn't taste as good. Therefore, it is important to cook your rice the day beforehand, put it in the refrigerator, and let it harden.

The first step is to pour olive oil into the pan and let it heat up. First, cook your eggs - not completely - and pour it into a separate bowl when finished. Next, we will cook the frozen vegetables, meat, onions, and garlic all together. Cook until brown and soft - everything. Add the rice. Mix well. Pour sesame seed oil and soy sauce into mixture. Add eggs. Now, we will cook the entire thing in the saucepan for about 10 minutes. This is to ensure everything is coated well with sauce, and that the rice is hardened. Add pepper and garlic salt to taste.

The final result is delicious! It can usually serve up to two very hungry people.
