When pan gets hot than add 1 and half tablespoon of cooking oil then add the garlic and onion, mix a little bit then straight away add the sausages and mix them all together to infuse their flavor, you will see it will give a nice golden color. It is going to smell amazing so fragrant!
After all combines nicely let’s add all colorful ingredients beside our spring onion, we will add it before finishing cooking,

Then add 2 tablespoons of Oyster sauce, for flavor and makes it shine. And half teaspoon of chili sauce, this is optional or at your taste, mix it all together.
After 3 minutes let’s add the rice and in the same time add the squid and prawn with their sauce, the sauce going to add juicy and seafood flavor, mix it all well and cook it for 2 minutes more. Keep mixing and add a bit of black pepper and salt at your taste and lemon juice
Finally add the spring onion, remember to reserve a bit for later to garnish and mix well, and fry it for a minute and taste. Then we are done.
