  1. Three Critical errors in the recipe. One, as noted the rice type should be short gtained. Two, cook the rice the day before then refrigerate the rice. Use the cold rice in the recipe. And most importantly- it's GARLIC butter!!!!!!!!!!!!
     
  2. 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!
     
  3. I did this the first time exactly as the recipe showed, it was delicious, but the next time I deleted two tbs butter (too much the first time), and added mushrooms, deleted the green onions, and added about a teaspoon of sesame oil. Yummy!!!!
     
  4. Very Good!
     
  5. BEWARE! Benihana uses a special garlic butter recipe as well as soybean oil to grease the skillet. This recipe here was dissapointing. My fiance and I go to Benihana once a week and this is NOT the recipe. Decent though.

  1. When I go to Benihana’s they use garlic butter. I get cloves of garlic roasted them dice them and mix in room temp butter to make the garlic butter. And use that instead of regular butter. Try it.

  3. 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.
