This is how I make fried rice: cooked rice, at least 2-3 cups chopped vegetables as desired or have on hand such as garlic, onion or green onion, bell pepper, green peas, chopped carrots, French cut green beans, chopped broccoli, chopped celery, mixed vegies minus lima beans, chopped spinach. veggies should be cooked or canned. You can use leftovers. about a quarter cup of seasonings and 1 cup to 1.5 cups of other cooked veggies. soy sauce to taste black pepper to taste 1 egg, scrambled, for every 2-3 cups cooked rice (you measure the cooked rice not the uncooked.) about 2 tablespoons of cooking oil for every 2-3 cups rice (you can use vegetable, sesame, soybean, canola, etc. note: sesame is best mixed with a second oil like soy or veggie)
In a deep skillet or wok or even a dutch oven (I prefer the dutch oven because easier to stir fry) place veggies that need to be sauted: anything raw or uncooked including garlic, onion, bell peppers, and celery. When tender, add cooked or canned vegies and stir for just a minute to heat through. Now quickly add rice and soy sauce and pepper. Stir fry for 2-3 minutes on medium high flame till rice browns. You can smell this. It will smell like popcorn a little bit. Now add the scrambled eggs, stirring very quickly and thoroughly to distribute egg throughout rice and cook about 2 more minutes. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand for about 5 minutes to steam a little. (note: make sure rice has stopped frying before covering. Continue stirring so it won't burn after removing from the heat till you can't hear the sizzle anymore and then cover and let stand.)
