This is FANTASTIC! So easy, it smells heavenly, it goes together in no time flat, and it's the perfect way to use up a little bit of pork, like the one pork chop you didn't use, that kind of thing... it really stretches it, too, and makes a generous amount of fried rice. I've never used the fish sauce, and it still tastes great. I've made this lots of times, and it turns out perfect every time. Thanks, ToriS, for a great recipe! (I hope this review isn't full of typos, the new font size & color are so dinky & faint, it's hard to proofread! I should have posted a review before the Valentines Day Massacre, ha!)

I was disappointed with this dish. The rice turned out too soft and the fish sauce overwhelmed the dish. The fishy taste lingered all night!
