4 cups jasmine rice
wok oil (out of all the oils this one is #1)
2 -3 dashes of grated ginger (fresh ginger can be substituted)
1 white onions (chopped) or 4 -5 green onions
3/4 cup chicken stock
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
3 eggs (scrambled)
1 cup frozen peas and carrot (optional)
2 -3 teaspoons salt
soy sauce (as much as you prefer)

1
Prepare the jasmine rice. Combine 4 cups of jasmine rice and 4 cups of water in a rice cooker. Once the rice is cooled place in the refrigerator until chilled.
2
Scramble eggs in seperate pan using whatever oil you normally cook eggs with. Make sure to fold the eggs over, so they can be cut into thin strips.
3
Heat wok and 3-4 tablespoons of wok oil to medium heat.
4
Saute the white onion until soft and partially transparent (usually takes me 3 minutes or so) along with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, frozen peas and/or carrots. ***If you opted for green onions skip this step and saute the peas/carrots in wok oil.***.
5
Add the rice making sure to seperate the grains (with fingers) and mix with the vegetables. Add another 3 tablespoons of wok oil, sesame oil, egg strips, ginger, chicken stock, and sugar (green onions if you opted for these).
6
Raise the heat to HIGH add soy sauce to desired darkness/taste and STIR-FRY. (I usually use anywhere from 1/2 to a full cup of soy)***it is crucial for the stove to be as hot as possible*****.
7
Basically you are going to Stir-fry till all the liquids are dissolved and the fried rice has reached the dryness desired.
8
While cooling salt to taste in order to enhance the flavor.
