While this is true, you can do a pretty good job at replicating it on a regular stovetop. Years ago, I watched a YouTube video of a French guy who tested a bunch of methods for recreating cooking fried rice with a jet engine but on a home stove.

He found that the best method was the following:

• Use a thick cast iron pan on medium heat to cook your eggs.
• Add your rice then add your veggies.
• Keep mixing and cook until veggies reach desired doneness.
• Then to finish, max out the heat and move all your rice to the center of the pan exposing the edges all around.
• Pour your soy sauce around the edges so it instantly starts boiling and evaporating most of the water.
• Mix everything together for a few minutes then done.

I’ve been doing this method for years and it works amazingly well. Before using this method, I found my fried rice would often come out mushy or wet. It’s the closest I’ve ever come to recreating restaurant fried rice. Id say it’s about 90% of the way there and my fried rice is probably my favorite dish I make now.
