There's not that much to criticize about how Jimmy made his fried rice. Most Asians (incl. myself) are taught at least one way to make it growing up. Fried rice isn't tricky, and there is a lot of variation in techniques, so it's actually stunning to watch Jamie Oliver fuck it up so badly.
I appreciate it though. I think Jimmy said himself, he's doing this cooking channel for fun. He's no chef and enjoys cooking. This isn't what pays his bills, so Uncle Roger came in who has millions of followers for critiquing food videos, granted he's funny too, but I bet it is a little intimidating. It's like a football star playing basketball with Steph Curry and he's critiquing your shot.
I actually find it refreshing as fuck to see Jimmy a little more nervous here than he usually is. He's so charming and funny, it always seemed like he was super put together and always charismatic 24/7 in his life. This isn't an insult. Jimmy seems like one of the bros here and I'm all for it. Like him more as a celebrity cos of it.
I will say Jimmy is mostly in acting mode. Jimmy is senior for Uncle Roger/Nigel Ng in stand up comedy. I think Nigel is pretty respect to Jimmy off the screen, but not in Uncle Roger mood.
I binged all of these in the last 18 hours and I need more 😂😂 This is honestly the most relatable series of cooking videos. Thank you for making cooking look way more simple and fun. I can't wait to try all these recipes!
I live in Asia, and tried out this recipe with what I had in the kitchen. Switched out the bacon with pork belly slices, and curry powder with pepper and five spice powder, peppers with fresh chilli. Wife liked it, she said it was a nice home-cooked meal. Props to you Jimmy.
@@joedennehy386 Oh right. I forgot that I'm supposed to know how to cook fried rice just because I'm born here and living here. The thing is, fried rice is a very flexible dish and there are many different ways to prepare it. I tried Jimmy's version and it turned out great, and I was just thanking him for it. And you have a problem with that, hm?
I was deceived by the title: there was no roasting involved. But instead I got a very wholesome video. Was Jimmy actually nervous? I'd like to think so. For once I'd whitness a down to earth not cocky 'let me show you how this is done' guy. And uncle Roger was soo polite too. I was counting the seconds until he'd say something about the rice that was on the handle lol thank you guys!
Probably he would've gotten a higher score if he had used a Wok, lol, but the rice looked delicious, I was just visualizing the smell and now I'm craving egg fried rice!, I can imagine the flavor boost bancon enhances to the rice!
@@ronaldoliverenos7179 scariest it was, for a young teenager. Its in comparison to finding raw meat, prawns or mussels in an ice cream tub. The fishes eyes somehow glared at you.
Huge fan of Uncle Roger and Jimmy - esp I'm from Hong Kong, great to see Jimmy as such a great representation of HK. One thing about the soy sauce though (as a home cook for > 10 years) - soy sauce has sugar in it so can be easily burnt, therefore you don't want very high heat on soy sauce. Burning soy sauce for too long will also make it turn slightly acidic, destroying the umami flavor in it.
Love the way Jimmy goes “MR Uncle Roger” as opposed to just Uncle Roger. Reverence to Roger and rewarded with an 8/10! Rice looks so good, Jimmy! Think Imma make some soon as well, you’ve triggered me, yum! Thanks Jimmy.
Would love to have a comedy skit between Uncle Roger and Jian Yang. Yelling at each other in Canto and Mandarin similar to vs. Erlich in the boardroom would be fun. (Understand if you can't because HBO owning the character)
Great collaboration.. F'N funny.."4:34 this is my Quinceanera" > Love my Asian brothers and sisters. My daughter is half Mexican and half Chinese and call her my little Beans and Rice.
Yep, you should have a Cantonese segment... I want to hear Jimmy speak Chinese! I don't mind reading the English captions for special segment like that!
look. as an asian with a lifelong love for fried rice. if there's any advice i can give yall it's this: the rice cooker you use *matters*. especially if you don't have time, a nice rice cooker becomes the best and most-loved appliance in the kitchen because it always makes god tier rice. don't know where to start? btw the best rice cookers in the world are the ones that speak korean at you and sing a little song when the rice is done cooking. the rice is fluffy and beautiful. and you can make *pancakes* in that shit.
Whenever there're two good comedians on stage, you expect the video to me more entertaining, but it was a very good cooking video. Can't wait to try this recipe. :)
Uncle Roger is so loved by everyone. Only the OGs know. This uncle Roger is nothing compared to the gangster of all Chinese chefs…. Look up Yan Can Cook (Martin Yan) he’s the REAL “uncle Roger”
6:13 if uncle roger was a fire alarm enthusiast: “This is why you don’t put smoke detector in kitchen haiyaaaa. You supposed to install heat detector instead.”
I know Jimmy as a comedian way before I'm aware of uncle Roger and would consider Jimmy as uncle Roger's senior in term of a comic but somehow, uncle Roger feels like he's the senior here, it's so wierd
Would love to see Jimmy as a foodie reviewing restaurants and buffets - start in Las Vegas Jimmy !! Your humor would set you far apart from all the other restaurant reviewers and their same old - "ummmm that's good" comments.
You should have shown Uncle Roger the Golden Shrimp fried rice in one of your vids where you mix the yolk with the rice. I have been using that recipe of yours for all my fried rice now and its amazing!!
That looked like a very solid bowl of fried rice, I might have to try a little curry powder in mine next time, that sounds like it would add something special.
i remember my friend once make fried rice and added curry powder from instant noodle curry sachet for flavouring (we students didnt have much cooking stuffs) and i must say it was the best fried rice i had then
@@Mnguyen92 haha i know that ofc but what i'm pointing out is about the flavor of curry in fried rice. personally it's not something i seen often despite many fried rice type in my country
0:12 Oh my god the asian respect bow, I do that around my friends' parents and grandparents still I think the Uncle Roger character has been judging fried rice for so long that he is legitimately an expert now. He has cooked with how many accomplished, skilled chefs? Michelin starred chefs? I wonder if he ever got with Chef Esther Choi, he was thirsty as hell and it wasnt the msg nahimshayin
Fuiyoh! Not bad nephew Jimmy not bad. Next time uncle Roger bring you a wok
Can you bring me a wok?
Your face looks like you were bored of watching jimmy making egg-fried rice lol.
Exactly! I left a comment a moment ago that he needs a wok. 🤣
Will do better next time and also throw out my sh*thole rice cooker
American chef Dave Chang makes fried rice! ruclips.net/video/fABdo8F6sSQ/видео.html
Jimmy has big "Little Brother trying to impress Older Brother" vibes and its very cute to watch
More like nephew trying to impress his uncle lol
@@ckent1075 True, true.
That's just classic Asian insecurities given by our parents 🥲
*Fuiyoh!*
Awkward as fuck
Uncle Roger being a proper Asian uncle would never give it more than 8, but he cannot stop eating, which means the rice goes up to 11!
Hahahaha, so true!!
He was trying to speak while his mouth was full.
That fried rice with those ingrediants in it is very delicious, it's toptier expensive fried rice if u order that in a restaurant
@@emhgarlyyeung that makes sense, he's just trying to get his money's worth 😂
😂🤣🤣
Exactly, he should stop eating but he’s soo weak soo weak😂
He did everything he could to please Uncle Roger, but he still got roasted because his kitchen was "too nice" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Love Uncle Roger 😆
😂😂😂
that was not a roast, that was turning the oven on to "warm plates" setting.
I cracked myself at uncle roger saying kitchen like white person's kitchen......hillarious......
1:24 i love that enthusiastic "yeah??!?" like a younger sibling getting validation from the older bro
I love this collaboration. Uncle Roger was loving every part of it.... He was so into it he never really criticize him 😂
Yeah. "Not bad" is "very good" in Asian culture.
There's not that much to criticize about how Jimmy made his fried rice. Most Asians (incl. myself) are taught at least one way to make it growing up. Fried rice isn't tricky, and there is a lot of variation in techniques, so it's actually stunning to watch Jamie Oliver fuck it up so badly.
@@alexmarcelo6494 true lmao, especially when he add water on a *"fried"* rice. Our ancestor are all crying
@@alexmarcelo6494 like how do you manage to fuck up fried rice? It’s so simple
yes i was screaming the WOK lol
It's funny how Jimmy is so nervous cooking with Uncle Roger... i mean dude, Jimmy, you're a super big star yourself!!! LOL.
I was thinking the same thing 😆
Everyone is humbled by someone who is better than them at something. If this was an acting situation the roles would be reversed.
it's funny they both seemed a little nervous around eachother haha. Nigel was a little starstruck by Jimmy i think lol
I appreciate it though. I think Jimmy said himself, he's doing this cooking channel for fun. He's no chef and enjoys cooking. This isn't what pays his bills, so Uncle Roger came in who has millions of followers for critiquing food videos, granted he's funny too, but I bet it is a little intimidating.

its the confidence
"That's why I don't cook and I just talk shit" Uncle Roger is a mood
Jimmy Yang is the funniest person ever. So stoked he did a video with Uncle Roger
I love uncle Roger but the both of you were great hahaha. Great video and the fried rice looked delicious.
The look of happiness on Jimmy’s face when he got the one hand crack on the egg with the recognition from Uncle Roger. Priceless.
I actually find it refreshing as fuck to see Jimmy a little more nervous here than he usually is. He's so charming and funny, it always seemed like he was super put together and always charismatic 24/7 in his life. This isn't an insult. Jimmy seems like one of the bros here and I'm all for it. Like him more as a celebrity cos of it.
That's because Jimmy is an AMERICAN comedian, he'll get cancelled for anything. Nigel doesn't give af lol
@@minge9 not true, Nigel gives af, he was scared shitless when he had the anti-china dude on podcast, even deleted the video.. lol, doesnt give af
@@fabiankunda1365 doesn't gaf about Westerners
that's because Uncle Roger true asian heritage and not in America
@@minge9 tweak and cope
The way he stares at the camera and shakes his head in disappointment when the smoke alarm goes off, had me rolling!
You're easily pleased...
Better to be easily amused than constantly poo brain.
Leads to a happier life.
@@X22GJP u sad AF
@@X22GJP LOL
That was exactly my reaction at that exact time
10:30 "Can I touch you?!" 🤣🤣🤣 ayo
when jimmy touched that thing, "do it more do it more" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"you can touch anywhere you want".....
The fact that Jimmy is 4 years older than uncle 🤌🏻🤣
Really??🤣🤣
An 8/10 from uncle Rodger is basically the equivalent of receiving a Michelin Star. Great job Jimmy!
But no Uncle title haaiiiiyaaaaaaa......
there is no perfect with asian parents
still an asian F
Still an Asian F
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think Nigel was actually inspired by Jimmy for his comedy so it's super funny to see Jimmy be nervous around someone who's probably a fan.
I will say Jimmy is mostly in acting mode. Jimmy is senior for Uncle Roger/Nigel Ng in stand up comedy. I think Nigel is pretty respect to Jimmy off the screen, but not in Uncle Roger mood.
Jimmy and uncle roger are an actual representation of when your father is in the kitchen lollllll
I now believe us Asians just live a deadly similar life 😂
@@farradina6291 true hahahahahah
minus the constant degradation regardless of whether you’re doing it right or not.
I binged all of these in the last 18 hours and I need more 😂😂 This is honestly the most relatable series of cooking videos. Thank you for making cooking look way more simple and fun. I can't wait to try all these recipes!
Lol I started out yesterday evening. It's noon now and I didn't yet seem to have enough yet 😂 and there's a paper waiting to meet the deadline😂
8/10?! That's highest honor granted by any Uncle. Almost not disappointed!
I live in Asia, and tried out this recipe with what I had in the kitchen. Switched out the bacon with pork belly slices, and curry powder with pepper and five spice powder, peppers with fresh chilli. Wife liked it, she said it was a nice home-cooked meal. Props to you Jimmy.
You live in Asia and you need a recipe for fried rice, you're kidding right?

I want to hear Jimmy and Nigel talk Cantonese with each other
Im not sure Nigel speaks Cantonese
@@valiaudet3415 chinese malaysian usually speaks Cantonese
Nigel speaks Hokkien,I remember that he said some Hokkien in the interviews before he got famous
@@bakpaokecil depends on the area/state, Nigel also mentioned in interview his cantonese wasn't that great.
@@bakpaokecil nah.... there are way mor hokkien speakers in malaysia than cantonse people... wake up
Uncle Wang Gang is everyones favorite. He brings people together through cooking. The living fried rice legend.
I was quite impressed by how seriously Jimmy took this (& the MSG in the Vitamin E bottle 😂)
I was deceived by the title: there was no roasting involved. But instead I got a very wholesome video. Was Jimmy actually nervous? I'd like to think so. For once I'd whitness a down to earth not cocky 'let me show you how this is done' guy. And uncle Roger was soo polite too. I was counting the seconds until he'd say something about the rice that was on the handle lol thank you guys!
I definitely think it's harder for Uncle Roger to roast people face to face especially his friends 😄 this video was a nice treat nontheless
Honestly 8/10 is the BIGGEST compliment you can get from Uncle Roger because he's so critical of everything great job!
Probably he would've gotten a higher score if he had used a Wok, lol, but the rice looked delicious, I was just visualizing the smell and now I'm craving egg fried rice!, I can imagine the flavor boost bancon enhances to the rice!
When you pulled out the msg in the vitamin E bottle, that's a true asian right there. We always put shit into random containers.
The scariest and shocking, is to find raw fishes in an ice cream container!
@@chryslynong5369 wait, is it supposed to be scary & shocking?
@@ronaldoliverenos7179 scariest it was, for a young teenager. Its in comparison to finding raw meat, prawns or mussels in an ice cream tub. The fishes eyes somehow glared at you.
But Asian doesn't take Vitamin...
Yes. We do. You don’t ever ever ever throw away a good bottle. Ever!!!!!!
You know you have to like it when you see Jimmy and Uncle Roger together in one video!!
Weejio haiyaa
Uncle Roger is everywhere 🤣🤣🤣
Huge fan of Uncle Roger and Jimmy - esp I'm from Hong Kong, great to see Jimmy as such a great representation of HK.

Lol, Jimmy doing stand-up then Uncle barges in like, “Nephew Jimmy, that not how you do comedy, HAIYAAAAAHHHH!!!”
how about an HBO comedy series with the both of them & all new concept!
Everytime Uncle Roger praises him, Jimmy looks like a proud kid xD
i love how much editing there is in this video
jimmy had to cut around uncle roger to keep the video family friendly
This collaboration was the thing i wasn't looking for but when i found it i knew it was what i wanted all along 😂
The two Asian men who bring the most laughter together in one place and turned the kitchen into a circus :)
Uncle Rodger and Jimmy are the duo I never thought I needed but will always be welcome, and I need a stand up show of uncle Rodger and jimmy together
nah this type of colab is better they will burn anyone they pick to roast in a stand up show
I have that rice cooker. This white 65 year old lady. Jimmy you need a better rice cooker!
He had me cracking up in the beginning roasting you rice cooker 😂
Edit: I take it back he had me cracking up the entire time
That’s my Rice cooker 😬 I was like what’s wrong with it ??
I love the blue Goodwill stickers on the bottom of Jimmy's glass bowls. I'm sure Uncle Roger would approve of this. 👍
This randomly appeared recommended to me. I didn't know I needed this video until I watched it. Would love to see this mashup more often!
Two of my favorite guys. This was the best to wake up to! Definitely making this for lunch today.
this is a powerful combo. I was smiling the entire time.
same here man, same here :)
Uncle Roger is the great uniter in bring every Asian celebrity together. He’s starting the Asian Cinematic Universe!
acu
Unless you speak out against the Chinese government
Evidently you missed the Mike Chen collab debacle.
you’re telling me a shrimp fried this rice? 🦐
The bird flu? Yeah, they tend to do that
road work ahead? I sure hope it does

Please keep doing videos together. Your synergy with uncle can create an entire show.

fun fact, If Jimmy writes a comedy book, there will be more recipes than there are jokes.
😂Jimmy didn't even curse at all in front of uncle Roger when fire alarm beeped. He's really taking uncle Roger as his uncle😅
Jimmy is so nice and mannered, you don't see proper mannered and respectful people anymore
Jimmy you are almost at 1 million subscribers... what are you going to do to celebrate it??? It's a great milestone!
The look of genuine anticipation for praise on Jimmy's face... I can't believe I've only just found this channel :(
Yooo, wasn’t expecting Jimmy to collab with Nigel, not the collab we wanted but the collab we NEEDED XD
Both of these guys are both chefs and comedians, what a collab
I don't have the cooking gene (or patience) but I love watching you!
Onions are for poor people, use shallots! Best line in the video!🤣
