Golden Fried Rice

Fried rice is an easy yet popular dish in Chinese also Asian menus. You only need the left-over white rice and some side ingredients like meat, egg, seafood, vegetable, peas, onion..... just anything you like.
I seldom to have left-over rice in my fridge, thus I have to cook the rice couple hours earlier. In order not to have the "lumps" (where the rice stick into a ball) in the output, I used to add few drops of cooking oil/sesame oil during rice-cooking. The rice will be "free from each other".
The fried rice looks nice when it's in golden colour, so I'll show you too my way over here.
