Wow, I sense some hostility here..
Fried rice is easy, but the recipie varies greatly. The basics are:
Cook some rice. I like jasmine rice, it's a bit more fragrant. One cup dry rice and 1 1/2 cups water, combine in a pot and heat until it boils, cover pot and reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove pot from heat (don't open!) and let sit for 5 minutes. Rice is done.
Get out a frying pan/wok. Coat the bottom of the pan with oil- I like to use Wok Oil, which is mildly seasoned. You can use vegeatable oil or olive oil, but I'd stay away from olive. Anyway, do that and turn the burner on medium. While that's warming, chop up finely one large white onion (or two smaller ones), and prepare any other ingredients. I personally scramble an egg or two, chop up the pieces, and use that in the rice. You can also add peas, baby corn, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, whatever you want. The basic technique is to get all the stuff together, mix them, add enough soy sauce to coat everything (but don't go overboard) and throw it in the pan. Cook it (stir fry in the oil) for maybe five minutes, then add the rice. Mix everything together and stir fry another five minutes.
My secret ingredient is a couple drops of sesame oil. A little goes a long way- some people think it's overpowering, but I think it makes the dish perfect. Add that to the soy sauce before mixing the good stuff together.
That should do it!

yeah a lot of hostility in your post.
using day old rice is the best for fried rice...this is a recipe my father uses everytime he cooks fried rice...
2 cloves of garlic, crushed salt & pepper 1 egg some frozen peas, carrots, green beans, diced (this is optional) some diced pork or chicken (optional) soy sauce oil
- heat up the wok which is coated with oil - scramble the eggs and push to the side - fry the garlic until light brown - throw in the rice and sautee - add a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper. mix - now add the soy sauce...keep mixing in soy sauce until the whole rice mixture is brown - keep sauteeing for 5 mins - add veggies and meat and sautee again
