My magic ingredient in making fried rice just as good as any take-out joint is Wan Ja Shan's Vegetarian Mushroom Oyster Sauce. Wan Ja Shan's products are available at any Asian grocery market. I shop at Hong Kong Market Place on Walnut at least once a month. They stock many Wan Ja Shan's products including this one. They even carry this in two sizes - 10 ounces and 33.8 ounces. The 10 ounce bottle will only set you back $1.28. This stuff is so good, I'd gladly pay four or five bucks for it. It's a very intense, concentrated sauce so it doesn't take much! A 10 ounce bottle will see you through four or five stir fry or fried rice dinners.
Wan Ja Shan Brewery Co., Ltd. has been around since 1945. Check them out at http://www.wanjashan.com/. In addition to their various soy sauces, vinegars and marinades they produce an all organic product line including; soy sauce, tamari, wheat-free tamari and teriyaki.
Get yourself a bottle of this amazing sauce, chop up your veggies, fire up your wok and say goodbye to Chinese take-out fried rice forever!
