Pour soy sauce over the mixture, stirring to combine all ingredients thoroughly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Taste and adjust soy sauce or salt as needed.

For best results, use day-old cooked rice. This will help prevent the fried rice from becoming mushy.
Feel free to add other vegetables such as peas, carrots, or bell peppers to customize your fried rice.
A dash of sesame oil at the end can add a wonderful aroma and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
