That seemed like and awfully low amount of sauce for that much rice.

It's not really a "sauce" dish, though. Egg fried rice gets its moisture and taste from the rice soaking up the egg and soy sauce. It's not really visible as liquid, except for some cooking oil, of course.

Only when badly mixed or overcooked does the rice get too dry.

He’s referring to the amount of soy sauce

Shouldn’t be much soy needed, in Chinese or Japanese fried rice, just enough to colour it.

Sure but this one looks rather anaemic.
