Note

For best results, use day-old rice that has been refrigerated. Freshly cooked rice is too moist and will become mushy when fried.

All proteins (pork, chicken, shrimp, and eggs) should be cooked before adding to the wok to ensure they are safe to eat and to prevent overcooking during the stir-fry process.

You can substitute the meat and seafood with tofu or tempeh for a vegetarian version, though the original tags indicate this specific recipe includes animal products.

Bean sprouts and oysters are optional additions; feel free to omit them based on availability or preference.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet with a splash of water to restore moisture.
