Question
Hello, and thank you so very much for answering my question, I really appreciate it a lot. I was just wondering one little thing if it's not too much trouble if I ask you- do you put those 3 spices all together at once in the same pot (5 star powder, garlic powder and curry powder), or like, is it only one of them at a time in a pot of rice and meat and vegetables? Sorry to be a pest. Thank you very much for your time, and I hope you have a very excellent day, from Christina

Hello there, how are you going? Thank you so very much for taking the time to answer this question. I really appreciate it. I live in Australia and I was just wondering about fried rice that you get in Chinese restaurants. I was wondering what special herbs or spices they put in with the cooked rice, meat and vegies to make it taste so nice. I have tried lots of different recipes at home, but they never have that same beautiful taste like the fried rice you get in restaurants. Lots of recipes that I have tried just say to use sesame oil and soy sauce, but even though that gives a nice taste, there is still something missing! Thanks a lot for your time, I really appreciate it, from Christina
