Transfer the prepared sesame fried rice back to the rice cooker bowl or any bowl of your choice and gently press the top of the rice layer with the back of a wooden spoon to make it even.
Cover the rice bowl with a platter and turn upside down, the sesame fried rice would fall on the platter like a cake with the bowl shape.
