I love my fried rice, but how do you get your homemade stuff to taste like what you get from the Chinese Takeaway, it cant just be the MSG.Feel free to post your recipes here.

Use cold steamed rice from the day before.........thats a start.

Use a little peanut or sesame (spelling?) oil.

Other than that I'm as lost as you are dude.

Yep, rice from the day before it the go plus try some indonesian soy souce as this seems to be a lot sweeter than your run of the mill soy and IMO seems to give it more or a restaurant tatse. I have yet to master adding the egg, but normally throw in some frozen peas and shredded chicken and it goes down very well.

Great stuff the old fried rice

Aye, Mick

I make it often. Cold rice, pre cooked is essential as is a good soy sauce, as said indonesian sweet is good plus oyster sauce. Basically a thin fried omellete (egg and minimal if any milk) shredded.
Basically fry onion, shallots, bacon pieces, garlic. Add rice, sauces, frozen peas and corn then egg just before finishing. Pepper to taste, plus any other items you like in it.
Trick is to make sure your hot plate/wok is very hot and cook with peanut or sesame oil. Maggi sauce is another good addition as can be worcestershire sauce.

You dont need to cook the rice the day before,just put enouf water to cover rice and add more water as it soak's it up=fluffy rice

diced bacon
diced onion
diced celery
diced capsicum/thats the main flavour for real fried rice

and Numpty's Missus omlette

soy to taste

Simple

This may not taste exactly like the chinese takeaway but still good :

1 cup Rice /2 cups water - simmer till water is absorbed don't overcook. Best done day before but not essential.

Cuppla handfuls each of :
Bacon or ham
Carrots diced
Capsicum - green and red diced.
peas or beans frsh or frozen
Onion diced
peanuts or cashews
soy sauce
sesame oil
juice of a lemon or cuppla limes.
2 eggs whisked.

Garlic clove crushed
Peanut oil

Heat wok high - throw in bit of oil - cook egg like an omelette in the wok - remove and cut into strips. Cook bacon/garlic/onion one minute - throw in rest of veges and peanuts and eggg - stir fry 2 to 3 min - add rice half a cupful at a time and stir. . Then ( here's the secret ) let spread it all out and let it sit and sizzle on high heat to let the rice form a crust on the bottom. Scrape it/turn it a cuppla times and let sit again. Add sesame oil, soya sauce to taste. Squeeze over lemon/lime juice, final stir and serve.

That's mine - but the miso paste sound good I'll try it next time - vietnamese mint give it a bit of different flavour too.
