I don't know if we have a thread on the various incarnations of fried rice.I thought this article from Châtelaine, a longstanding Canadian "housekeeping" magazine on how to improve your fried rice. While I knew fried rice was made with leftover rice, I did learn a few tips: www.chatelaine.com/food/how-to/chinese-fried-rice/

Curious?

fried rice [tastes better when it’s had] time to dry out, overnight rice is best.” If possible, try and spread it out on a plate or tray in the fridge to let the grains dry.Really? Really and truly? I cannot see myself ever doing that. Surely the result would be overly crunchy grains.

Yes. Seemed that way to me as well.
Also,the suggestion of using grapeseed oil made me curious as well.
My experience with grapeseed oil is that it burns real easily and doesn't tolerate high heat. Certainly not my choice of oils to fry with.

I am currently paying the penalty for yesterday's lunch. I had heard about the horrible little bacteria that are in the rice grains and when they get wet they start multiplying. I had the rice hot 2 nights ago...no probs, but a few spoonsful yesterday and I was in distress. Any left over rice should be refrigerated at once and eaten soon.
Ooooh *rumble rumble*

If I have leftover rice from an evening meal it gets put in the fridge and if it's not eaten for lunch the next day, it gets thrown away. It seems to be one of the worst things to collect bacteria on.

Yup! my usual routine. This time the rice didn't hit the fridge until about 10pm. My bad.

It's not always fatal.

I once left rice out overnight and the very next morning it had fur growing on it in the pot.
While I am still wary about that, I have left rice out overnight dozens of times since then -- in all seasons -- and it never happened again. Generally, after 48 hours, my level of suspicion goes up considerably, but often the rice is still just fine. If in doubt, the rice goes in the dustbin. It is not the most expensive product in the world after all.

I was forced to make fried rice minus the egg once when at the time to add egg I realized I was out of eggs. Since then, I don't worry about adding egg, it turns out fine either way.

Obviously it is not egg fried rice without the egg, but it can be oompletely acceptable vegan fried rice.
