I think you guys are ignoring the fact that I condemned every other method of cooking rice that ISN'T in my Zojirushi rice cooker. But because this is but cheaper I gave other options because you ALWAYS complain about expensive equipment. IF I didn't give those other options then the top comments would be "OMIGOSH JOSH REEEEEE THIS IS BUT CHEAPER BUT YOU SPEND 100 DOLLARS ON A RICE COOKER???"
REEEEEEEEEE
nice.
OMIGOSH JOSH YOU"RE SO CONSIDERATE!! REEE (Thank you its really lovely when you include cheaper methods, it makes me more confident to try it)
What's going on? Pot rice and baked rice are awesomeness, it's agreed and it has been written.
We're gonna reeeee no matter how considerate you are. Everyone, in one breath: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
This video not bad! He actually got rice cooker and it’s the same brand as uncle roger’s!
Now make a reaction video
So...this video get's the uncle roger's seal of approval?
Well he made some omelet dices instead of scramble eggs
He fried the green onions tho
Not enough garlic, fried the onions, no finger measurement for water. This video is practically begging for a reaction video.
Meanwhile street vendors in Indonesia: “bUT even cheaper”
Yep you're right
Le Indian Govt: Hippitty Hoppitty yer rice is now free
Lmao
Lol in our country you could buy a lot of things with just 1 dollar. Including a fried rice
lol
"Maybe you don't have a pot."
*pours boiling water from pot*
I thought I was the only one that caught that.
Microwave till it boils?
Kettle?
and If you dont have a pot you probably dont have a oven either xd
if you have a glass/ceramic bowl or mug and a microwave, you're good lol
Asian: have rice cooker, but no oven
Western: have oven, but no rice cooker
Joshua: have both and use both to cook rice
Asian: Microwave works fine.
We do have ovens we use two woks wambaaam
European: cook rice in an old fashioned way in a pot
I have like *3 rice cookers and 2 ovens-*
(i'm asain, yes)
Poor student: have neither oven nor rice cooker
josh: baking rice is a last resort
babish: *sweats nervously*
Babish sweats bounty paper towels
Lmao I noticed the rivalry
I was EXTREMELY dubious at first but my wife's best rice side dish is make in the oven!
uncle roger: what’s this video showed in my suggestions?
3 mins later...
uncle roger: who cuts eggs on a cutting board?
I mean seriously tho, who does that hahaha. i'd just make a big space in the middle of the pan where I cooked the rice, let it fry in there a bit, then mix the rice in.
The tiny pan too haha
no msg?
Hiya!
he cooked the green onion! green onions are garnish!
I'm super new to this channel, but right off the bat I love the "here's the cost if you have the stuff, here's the cost if you don't." That's a huge differentiator!
I made this tonight (first time). It was really easy to make, and seems to be a good base recipe you can play around with. It was too sweet for me, so, next time, I'll take away a 1/2 tbsp of sugar, and add some sriracha sauce. I'm really surprised how straight forward this is to make. I would say even a 12 year old (who has a little experience cutting vegetables/cooking with a pan) could make this.
Edit: I made it again tonight. I forgot to reduce the sugar, but I did add an extra 2 inches of ginger, some squirts of sriracha sauce, and only used three cups of leftover, cooked rice. I also added some powdered garlic instead of grating it fresh. It came out better than restaurant-quality! I think fresh garlic would've been better, for obvious reasons, but tonight's was really good regardless.
i use minced garlic for everything. i agree too much sugar. this is also by far his easiest, everything else he makes take 2+ hours
Awesome! I’m happy for you. ☺️Fried rice is one of my favorite dishes to make, I mean, come on, you can throw in WHATEVER YOU WANT! 🙌
I’m a 13 yr old and this was really easy to make probably easiest thing I made besides scrambled eggs 😼
@@jungshin87 not really
I made it and it’s too sweet, god I’ll never cook fried rice properly. It looks like shit :(

"Second method is considered a mortal sin by many people!"
Literally the only way people prepare rice here in Brazil
At this point it's just mussel memory. Oil, minced garlic, fry until golden, throw in rice, blast it, and then cover with um dedinho de water, and done. Pronto meu filho, vai fazer o resto da comida ou re-esquentar o feijão.

"The second method is considered a mortal sin by many people which is rice in a pot"
I always knew hell was waiting for me but I never imagined rice to be the reason
Rich Amu I don’t even get it - why would anyone be against this method? It works beautifully. And one less appliance in my small kitchen.
@@jvallas a lot of asians judge people who make rice without a rice cooker, because indeed it is the easiest and most convenient way to cook rice. The problem is, unless you're making rice every other day, it doesn't justify spending the money and space in your kitchen.
Because rice is a big deal in Asian people diet and having a rice cooker is kinda obligatory cause it cooks rice perfectly every time that we couldn't even fathom why anyone would use any other methods. Heck, i didn't even have any other cooking appliances other than rice cooker in my room
Rice in a pot is the way to go! ! My personal favourite foolproof recipe would be:
-wash your rice AT LEAST 3 times (the more the better), sometimes I even let it soak for 30 minutes or so
-put a one to one ratio of rice and water in your pot and put it on the stove on a high temperature and give it a stir
-when it starts to boil on the sides and the rice there starts to dance turn the heat down to the lowest, put a cloth on top of the pot and the on top of that put the lid (fold the cloth on the lid so that it doesn't burn)
-cook it without ever opening the lid for 10 min that's it not more not less (unless you make a great amount of rice, you then cook it for 12 min)
-once it s done take your pot of the heat and let it sit another 10-15 minutes! And tada! You got yourself some perfect non-rice cooker rice!
energuminum Makes sense.
“If you live alone and youre single and maybe sad” ... he just described my entire life i-
yeah i also mentally told him to stfu immediately after saying that lmao
Fried rice is the most forgiving vehicle for leftovers! I'd love to see you do some videos specifically on how to use leftovers. Not enough people have that skill.
Western people: make fried rice
Uncle Roger: it’s free real estate
You beat me to it hahahah. Especially thought of the green onions xD
^^
Exactly
There's ton of western people acting like they know everything about egg fried rice once they watch one single Uncle roger video

"Cooking rice in a pot is a mortal sin"
90% of South Asians: Hm.
Edit: 90% of Earth's population
lmaooo i guess we're demons now :))
Yeah, like bro, that's how our ancestors did it, and it turned out amazing when you mixed it with some Dal. Wait until they find out how we make Khichdi!
Yeah i didn't understand either. In a pot is THE standard procedure around the entire world. A rice cooker is just a convenience bonus. Although i don't know how a standard pot isn't already convenient enough.
As a Vietnamese (south Asian), I don't know any Vietnamese household that doesn't have a rice cooker.
In Thailand and Laos almost every household has a rice cooker too. And we lived in a very rural area

The seasoning is spot on. I am munching on my second bowl right now.

He did on tik tok i think
try the channel "my name is andong" he did a homemade Nutella Video not long ago.
He did it on tiktok
Good idea!
a true Vietnamese household will always have at least 1 Rice cooker , my mom bought 3 that's how hardcore serious we are about rice, oh and not mention Clay pot for traditional cooking method
This recipe instantly became one of my most favorite of all time. It tastes amazing, is incredibly cheap and you can even make it in bulk, without much extra effort! The last view weeks, I made this at least 10 times.

I appreciate how he shows you multiple ways to do things and actually DOES THEN HIMSELF too
Little does he know, that in traditional fried rice, there are no measurements for anything. You just listen to the spirits of your ancestors.
My ancestors need to respect my wallet more, they keep asking me to add pork
and no buying! You gotta use what's in your kitchen. Sacred ingredients for traditional fried rice are always found in the kitchen. One does not need to buy more for the sake of making fried rice.
Lmao true
@Northward Bound baking is chemistry... kind of
Josh re presents those spirits, in fact he guides them

Well you could use a kettle (if you have one). Lol in Britain it's normal for everyone to have a kettle and most people don't have microwaves.
@@saige6442 I do not know a single person in the UK who doesn't have a microwave, maybe my grandparents but that's about it
At 0:49 those are called Bayonet Forceps. We use them in the Operating Room. They are used in a lot of ENT procedures. They are also commonly used to apply or remove dressings. That is not an eating utensil. Lol. Recipe was great, though. Thanks.
Started living on my own, made this recipe and you were right, it did make me happy.

honestly!! it's so damn easy to make and we don't have space for an extra equipment and that too just for rice

Joshua: "If you live alone and your single and may be sad"
Me: Why are calling me out like that
not only you my friend 😔😔😔
Asian tip: Cooked rice keeps long in the freezer. We're talking 2-3 months depending on quality. If you want to portion out your meals, do so by cooking rice in bulk and portion them according to how much you eat in a single serving. Don't bother using tupperwear, wrap them tightly into a ball with a clingfilm. You can if you want but wrapping them saves more space.
To reheat them, unwrap, serve on plate, and nuke them in the microwave in 1-2 minute intervals. It'll still come out like it was freshly cooked.
Ever since I started watching you, I also started rinsing my rice. Best thing ever!!!!! Thank you 🥺💖

2:07 is a brilliant work of editing. The way the lid covers up the overlay of the demons is so clever!
You want to know what’s but cheaper? Having almost all the ingredients at home and not spend another dime! I’ve learned a lot from you and I’m grateful for you Joshua!
Why cook the egg separately? Just make a little well in the rice in the middle of the pan, pour in the egg, and cook as normal. Mix some rice in as you're cooking to get some nice sticky clumps.
superbott i mix the cold rice with egg yolks instead, the rice becomes hella rich and tastes like heaven, but the well thing is nice too
That's gross. If you want sticky clumped rice then go make Korean style fried rice. This is not that. This is chinese/japanese.
Paulo Garcia as someone who is ethnically Chinese and and lives in asia I completely agree
Bruh Bruh this is actually a different type of fried rice that I don’t think he’s going for
@@emilyyang2229 Thanks mate
I see Josh is riding the Uncle Roger fried rice train this time.
He must be trying to bait Uncle Roger to respond
As soon as I saw that it’s another fried rice video; *So you’ve chosen.. death* 💀
At least it's not egg fried rice
inb4 "ayaay... green onions is garnish, you no cook green onion, you wasted green onions. Uncle Roger not happy"
no msg, cooks gren onions ay ya
I made this recipe last night with leftover rice from takeout food and it was amazing! Much better than the fried rice in most restaurants and since I used all leftovers it cost me $0 instead of the $7 they sell it for! 10/10 would recommend
For anyone having issues with the proportions, the biggest and easiest mistake with this is to cook 4 cups of rice and not use 4 cups of cooked rice. 1 cup of uncooked rice will make about 3 cups of cooked so if you make 4 uncooked cups of rice you will have about 12 cups of cooked rice.
I like that his servings are actually normal/bigger. The stuff you get at “fancy” places feels like it’s only enough for a toddler
Really? I work at a sushi restaurant and our fried rice portion is massive . It’s a huge dinner plate fill to the brim with fried rice. So I guess I’m lucky our portions are so huge because I love fried rice
@@jorgejimenez5669 do you work at a fancy place?
Nah, even my toddler eats more.
All Asians: “Where is your wok, you can’t do fried rice without wok!”
I know it's a joke.
Not everyone has a wok.
Asian in me is like, where’s the wok? Wait you’re cooking the egg separately? There’s vinegar? 😰 Woaahh you didn’t start with garlic😱 but I bet this is still dammmmn delicious 😋
@@Vince-A-N-O If you juave a gas stove there's no reason you shouldn't have a wok.
Me, a South Asian: wHaT eVeN iS a wOk?
What you do with a wok, thwo at a wabbit?
You make a basket of eggs in the middle of the wok at the very end of stir frying your fried rice mixture cooking the eggs at the same time. When the egg is cooked then you fold it into the fried rice top a green onions. Then smoke a phatty and dig in.. Your method works just as well Joshua. Thanks man.
this is the first time i'm cooking in my 17 years of existence and this is the recipe i'm using. I'm trusting you, Joshua

Since watching this video for the first time, I have made this fried rice twice! So delicious! I used Calrose sushi rice, and it had turned out amazingly well. After making it the first time, my family kept asking me to make it again. It has been the best fried rice I have ever made! Great video!
In India, in the south we eat *a lot* of rice.
Pressure cookers cost about 500 rupees max, about 6-7 dollars US. Cooks rice amazingly well and we use that over using our rice cooker
Maybe, if you’re interested, you could find it in Indian stores?
Joshua cooks fried rice.. Sweats nervously
*Uncle Roger: So you have chosen death*
Uncle Roger has approved
“Haiya, No MSG, Uncle Roger needs to see this”

No wok. How you make fried rice without wok. Uncle roger is not happy. Haiya!!!!
Sergio Gomez Lol true
Correct me and you get Corona he didn’t put enough MSG on Aunty Helen apparently.
The easiest way to make rice for fried rice is to put washed rice in microwave safe bowl. Add water up to 5 cm above the rice layer and microwave at high for 15 minutes. Viola! You have perfect rice for fried rice.
It was one of the best egg fried rice I had, and I was living in Asia for quite a while. Thank you
I really like this series. It shows how you can make a cheap meal, but it ALSO shows how cheap it is to make meals from fresh.
Oh fried rice, in Vietnam, you don't need much, just throw everything and we could have a 50 cent fried rice.
True true 😋
I’m Asian and I can’t believe I just watched this man BAKE rice. No hate, love your videos:)

The third method of making rice:
Joshua: If you don’t have a pot, use a baking tray.
Joshua again: proceeds to boiling the water by using a pot😂😂😂
You can use a kettle to boil water
I had made a comment just like this 😂 I was like what
Loophole! such a careless move 😂 but we gotta give him credit an E for effort.
boil water in the microwave even. He just did it how he's used to
Could heat water in coffee maker
Nobody’s talking about how lit that rice cooker dance was and I’m shook
Bruh. I made this last night for dinner and it SLAPPED. Easily the best homemade fried rice I've ever had.
Everyone's complaining about the rice, but can we talk about how he didn't scramble the eggs into small chunks but instead freaking cut an omelette into cubes??
This! I was like when is he going to scramble it? Then he threw it into a cutting board 😂
Seems like you just had the talk. Moving on.
I own that rice cooker, and let me tell you the ringtone is a BOP
big fat bop!
My friend has that cooker and the music is nice but it takes too long to make rice. 1 hr for white rice or 40 on quick mode??? My rice cooker takes 20-30 min
I own one as well but most indian ones just make rice no bop and they have a option of keeping it warm and not overcooked as well
@@nemomukerji wait, most Indians use a pressure cooker

shallots, Onion, Rice, egg, chili oil, that's it.. My Go-to! Always!
I just made the rice. I Added 1 tsp Sriracha to the sauce and some chopped sweet onions and it tastes incredible. Add a little milk (1 tsp) milk to the eggs to make them fluffier. Best fried rice I’ve had!
"Where is your wok? You are losing Wok Hay!"
-Uncle Roger
Wok Hey only works if you have extremely high heat with large flames that is able to heat the sides of the wok.
The key to good fried rice is being able to evenly cook all the rice. Since most house kitchen can only produce small flames a pan is better. But now you have to cook with less amount of ingredients.
1:25 My asian friends: "That's not good enough"
Me: "....until it's clear"

We only (usually) do it twice in the Philippines
I do it 3 times.
I never wash my rice, I just use it right away. I don't see the need for it.
@@alaaelhayek2594 Washing rice is just to get rid of some of the starch and whatnot and therefore make it less "sticky."

Here in Indonesia, you can get a big portion of Chicken fried rice with egg and a nice glass of sweet iced tea for the exact 1 US Dollar on street food. Well, basically we have a lower price for most ingredients. For example, you can get about 2.5lbs of good grain rice for about 80 cents.

Don't wash the rice
Use a 2:1 ratio of water to rice and put into a dutch oven
Turn heat to high
Immediately forget that you're making rice
Panic when you smell something burning
Serve it anyway and say you're not hungry
