It's more likely that the sarcasm is engendered by the way you asked
the question. You didn't ask what could be substituted for egg, you
didn't say whether you're looking for a flavor component, or a
textural one, or a protein source. You just asked for eggless fried
rice, to which the correct answer is, make fried rice but leave out
the egg.
If you're going to try tofu, I suggest you cube it small and fry it on
at least two sides in a little quite hot oil until golden brown.
Season it as you do that, perhaps with a little soy and a little
sesame oil. Then gently stir it into the rice at the end of cooking.
Otherwise, it's just going to break up into indistinguishable mush. -
