I chop pork into small bite-size pieces, dust with corn starch, deep fry it, (keeps the meat juicy) drain on paper towels, then add to jasmine rice. I also use five spice seasoning. That's what makes it fried rice. As for the eggs, I beat them and quickly fry them until fluffy, like scrambled eggs and add that at the very end and the eggs will keep it's bright yellow color. Presentation is very appealing to the eye.
