Add vegetable oil to large pan over high heat.
Add cooked rice and stir so that the rice gets coated.

Personal Notes:
One thing I enjoy with cooking is just experimenting. When I first made this recipe, it happened completely by accident. About a month before this recipe came to be, I went to an Indian cooking class with my mom, Leighann Wilson. There were some techniques used that I really appreciated and have started using as often as I can. Turmeric, though, is one of the spices used a lot in Indian cuisine.

So we had a bunch of rice left over after making some tofu dish and I got the munchies at around 9pm. I had this idea of taking the leftover rice, using egg as a sort of binding agent to make fried rice balls using some of the spices from that Indian cooking class. The oil was not hot enough when I dropped them in, so the rice fell apart and lost all hope of what I wanted it to be. But I saw the making of fried rice and thought "when life gives you rice and oil, make fried rice", so I did. After bumping up the spices a bit, I tried it and had Casey taste it as well. It became a house-hold favorite!
