Prepare a mixture of sauces (fish sauce, oyster sauce, red wine vinegar, soy sauce, chicken bouillon powder) in a cup for easy pouring.

Add cooked rice to the pan, which has been cooled for about 3 hours to ensure it's dry.

Let the rice sit in the pan for a moment to fry on one side before stirring.

Add the cooked bacon to the rice mixture for flavor.

Break up the eggs and mix them into the rice and bacon.

Pour half of the sauce mixture over the rice and stir to combine.

Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more sauce if desired.
