For best results, use cold, day-old rice. This will prevent the fried rice from becoming too mushy. Feel free to substitute other vegetables based on your preference or what you have on hand. Diced bell peppers, corn, or broccoli florets would also work well. If you don't have pork chops, any cooked pork, such as roast pork or pulled pork, can be used. Adjust the amount of soy sauce and seasoning to your taste. A dash of sesame oil at the end can also add a nice flavor. Make sure your wok or skillet is hot before adding the ingredients. This will help to create a better texture and prevent sticking.
