make sure you use day old rice

I've used so many different variations of sesame oil, hoison sauce, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, fish sauce, garlic, oyster sauce etc - it never comes out precisely how I like it as far as tastes in comparison with my local restaurant.

C'est la vie.

It takes far more oil than the typical home chef has the guts to use.

Even two day old rice. It should be dried out. Crumble it in your hands when you put it in the pan.

Rice from at least a day before, lots of butter, lots of soy.

Get the things you are going to add ready and then do it in small batches, don't try to do it all at once, so you can really let it brown. Oldish rice as PPs said. Sesame oil, lots of garlic and soy.
