First time making it and it came out great. Used mushrooms instead of the green onion and threw in chicken to transform this dish from an appetizer to a main dish. If you are thinking about making it without the sesame seeds, don't! The roasted seeds push this dish from a good one to a great one. will make this again!

Andy, this was great fried rice. Wow, the crunch of the sesame seeds sends this one over the top. I substituted 1tsp of the soy sauce for fish sauce (mine is especially salty or I would have used more), added 1T sugar and 1/4tsp white pepper, no salt was needed. This was positively addictive made with brown basmati rice.
