Add the eggs and scramble with the meat and veg. Add the pre-cooked rice and stir well. Add a few drops of sesame oil along with the dark and light soy sauces. Finish off with pepper and/or dried chilies to taste. Remove from the heat and put a lid on the pan. Let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Personal Notes:
This is a great and easy way to clean out the refrigerator. In Asia we normally have some rice left over in the cooker overnight and rather than waste it we cook up a quick fried rice dish. We usually use chicken or pork as the meat, but sometimes use shrimp. The vegetables can include onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, corn, frozen peas, or anything you have on hand. We serve this dish for lunch and sometimes even for breakfast (use more eggs and maybe sausage for the breakfast version).
