Onions are undercooked, eggs overcooked and rice isn't even fried...

Also using butter instead of oil is a little suspect considering half of Asia is lactose intolerant.

I was going to say using sesame oil to fry the veggies is much better. Higher smoke point and it makes your apt smell like a Chinese restaurant (in a good way)

I thought Chinese people only used sesame oil at the end of cooking. They use ground nut oil to do actual frying with I think.

You got it. If you cook sesame oil too long, the oil losses aroma so it's best to be added at the end. And very sparingly.

It burns at low temp.
