User's tip
Flickr user avlxyz, who knows his Chinese food (and his camera!), suggests adding chopped Spam to special fried rice. Sounds a good idea, I might even chop up a tin and freeze in small quantities, just for this purpose.
Variations
Pre soak some dried shrimp in just boiled water for 15 - 30 minutes to rehydrate, roughly chop and add with the vegetables for a more authentic dish.
Instead of bacon, slice up a little Chinese sausage for an interesting change.
Peeling ginger
There is no need to peel ginger. As a result of attending a Thai cookery demo, we have learnt that peeling ginger is unnecessary unless for aesthetic purposes as the skin is high in fibre and full of flavour. However, do remove any bits that have become tough or woody.
