Try a little, adjust with salt and pepper if you want. Sprinkle green onion over top and dig in while it's hot.

Crank the heat up, toss in the oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil and your crispy bacon. Stir it all around so every bite gets some flavor.

Slide the rice and veggies to one side. Pour eggs on the empty part, scramble until they're just cooked, then stir them up with everything else.
04 -
Dump in the cold rice, stir it all together. Let it cook a few minutes so the rice gets heated through and tasty.
05 -
Toss in your garlic, carrots and peas. Stir and let them cook for a few minutes until they're soft.

Throw diced onion in with the bacon grease. Let it cook a bit, stirring now and then, till it goes soft and a little see-through.

Put the bacon pieces in a cold pan, then set the heat to medium. Let them cook till they're crisp, scoop the bacon out with a spoon, and keep the bacon oil in the pan.
# Additional Notes:

If your rice is chilled and a day old, it'll stay fluffy and won't stick together.
