Greetings from Iceland! I am a retired prof. chef myself and noticed the way you use your left hand when chopping. Impressive! Love your videos and recipes!
Looks delicious!!! I make a Sausage Fried Rice. Everyone loves it. I use Farmer breakfast sausage links broken up, garlic, onion, green onion, eggs, cabbage chopped into little squares and rice. I make a sauce with 2 tbsp soy, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, 4 drops of sesame oil and 1 tbsp water and mix well.
SO happy to learn that the rice needs to be cooked ahead of time, not fresh!!!!! Heading to the kitchen right now to get it going and refrigerate overnight, for tomorrow. Thank youuuuu!
I really enjoyed seeing several variations together in one video. I liked seeing what was similar and what you changed while using the same tools and basic principles.
A friend of mine who was a commercial cook, but not a chef, taught me her s/yle of fried rice, she said to add chichen stock to the rice when cooking for flavour. Once her rice was cooked, she spread it out in a flat tray, and dried it in the oven, so she could use it fairly quickly. She also used the absorption method to get dry rice, with no clumps. Thank-you for the recipes, though onion causes migrains for me, so I have to tweak recipes. All the best.
OMG almost 17 years ago I tried a beef and chinese lettuce dish I loved. For over a year I went to this restaurant in Chicago's China Town. Unfortunately they closed. I've searched for this recipe which wasn't dark with soy sauce. Subscribed. Thank you. This was a favorite of my late son and I. Thank you
Whenever I cook rice I cook more than is needed for a specific recipe. I portion it in freezer bags for later, those nights when I don't really want to "cook" and have odds-and-ends in the fridge/freezer/pantry. Fried rice is a life saver for busy nights, especially before a Grocery Run....love you Flo&Dude, this channel has helped me so much to cook simple, tasty food...oy
Great idea...I love Chinese food, and I crave it and seafood...ALWAYS. I could have it for breakfast. It is definitely my favorite, with a hot cup of wonderful JASMINE tea. The aroma is heavenly! No bacon! Just garlic, soy sauce and GINGER...Yum. I use my wok to saute veggies when making soups. It cuts cooking time. Lots of room, and quick.
The freezer idea is great for rice. I have been craving rice pudding for a long time, but I usually cook what my husband likes;! I can usually find a light snack that I like, later. I also love Cajun rice with onions, sausage, and other veggies in it. Even crawdads!! They are good in pasta as well. My man goes for the very boring meat, and potatoes. I grew up on the east coast, so I got very lucky in being exposed to wonderful foods from different cultures. Yum
So happy to hear I can regrow my green onions from the roots. I will start some today when I cook one of your tasty rice meals. Green onions are expensive in Florida stores.
I have watched this video so many times now because I made the HK style beef fried rice two times for my family now and we absolutely love it. It’s so easy to make and I just love how it tastes. That crunch from the lettuce is awesome! Thank you for introducing me to this new way of cooking, and this awesome dish!
Hi Flo. I just bought your cookbook Chinese Homestyle. Only had a chance to thumb through it quickly but looks so good and lots of the recipes I really wanted. Great that it has many photos too!
Hi I just discovered your channel. You have a lovely calm manner. I have been making lots of different fried rice for many years. I used to love a chinese cook called Ken Hom and in the 1980's i read his book like a bible. I learned so much from him. As time went on and I learned recipes from other cultures, I found I preferred the taste of Basmati rice that Indian recipes use. So that is the rice I use in my egg fried rice dishes instead of long grain rice. I was pleased that you introduced me to other ingredients that are suitable like the minced beef so will try that. Thank you so much to you and your other half. XxDeb in Newcastle, England
Excellent demonstrations with detailed cooking techniques. I've always known to use leftover rice, now I know why leftover rice should be cold too! I look forward to your future cooking demonstrations, and I'm over-the-moon having stumbled upon your show. Thank you so much! Peace and blessings.
Whenever I'm in the mood for fried rice, I pull a piece of char siu out of the freezer and voila!! I love all 4 of these recipes. I already tried the one with the lettuce. Sooo good!! Happy Sunday, everyone.... And thanks Flo.
Great voice (I am hard of hearing), good instructions well explained and great sense of humor!! Fried rice has been one of my favorite dishes for many decades and these look super!! Thanks for sharing!
Made the Malaysian variety a couple months ago! Making it again tonight!! So so SO good! My local Asian markets only had shrimp paste in a jar, so I just used more since it wasn’t dehydrated like the belachan. 🤤 Thank you so much!!!
Hi🙂 Such an awesome way of using left over rice and other left overs in the fridge. I have not used oyster sauce or shrimp past in my fried rice. This time I'll try using. It looks and taste aromatic. Thanks for sharing your delicious recipes. Have a nice day🙂
Hi Flo! My fave is the garlic shrimp fried rice. It’s my go-to recipe. I use the same recipe except I would use chicken or pork and add some peas, carrots and corn when I’m feeling adventurous. It never fails. My friends think I’m a fried rice master chef. Learned so much from you and Gordon Ramsey. But you’re my go-to for Asian dishes. 😅 Love your channel!
Great idea to make beef mince fried rice, will try it tomorrow for lunch. A small suggestion…. Mix your soya sauce and, oyster sauce in advance. It’s easy to mix into the rice.
Last night I made fried rice without any meat! It was really really really good! This was my first time making fried rice. I have always been afraid of making fried rice I don't know why! Thank you so much for this simple recipe. I am your new fan-subcriber! 🎉😊
For healthy fried rice when using pork bacon...grease must be drained. Also, Olive Oil is preferable the best oil to use when cooking. I use Uncle's Ben Cilantro rice in a package or any of their rice to make Shrimp fried rice. Just a suggestion.
Lovely simple good - and just a tip for your viewers who may not know that if you put the green onion roots with about 2 inches of stalk into water over night then plant in pots or in the garden about 8:inches apart ,they should grow for you!
I’ve always loved fried rice. My ex (Japanese/Hawaiian) taught me how to cook it and then I learned how to outdo him. Lol I fix it almost like you do. The only difference is that I use butter, I prefer the butter flavor over any oils.
Hello Flo & Dude, Happy to find your channel tonight. I love fried rice also!! Excited to make your recipes! You're both excellent at this! Look forward to binge watching and learning more!! I agree, Simple is good! Blessings to you both💞
Would like to know when your next cookbook will be available on Amazon...We have the Asian home-style book and love it, made your bacon fried rice today and garlic noodles looking forward to doing more soon... Thank you so much
This might sound strange, but if you have some pineapple in the fridge you can add it too fried rice in small amounts to get a real nice background flavor too a recipe. I don't use a lot, just 3 or 4 pieces diced real small.
Thank you, very informative and love the way you share proper way. I love veggie fried rice, but oyster sauce was item I missed on. Thanks for your instructions. I will get book for more ideas
Try asparagus spears (when in season) or Chinese gai lan (look for the smaller stems. Blanch until use tender with a bit of sugar and garlic clove. Then add it to the fried rice)
You can buy that shrimp/fish paste in glass jars at Asian grocery stores (NOT in the Indian stores). The Filipinos call it "bagong", smelly and delish (as is durian), stays in the fridge for years. My wife can't stand it. More for me! I noticed that you didn't use any chopped, fresh ginger while cooking fried rice. I think it gives it a little zing. The Thais add diced cucumber at the end (like you did with the iceberg lettuce). It gives it a light, fresh aroma. They ALSO sprinkle some sugar on their fried rice before starting to eat. You'll find containers of white sugar on the tables at small eateries in Bangkok, where you'll see the locals sprinkling some on their fried rice. Not a bad idea, especially if you add the dynamite little green chillies in vinegar that are also on the tables. I score HUGE points with wifey when I make fried rice for breakfast. Whether it's with spam or even chopped up hotdogs! Of course I add some veges for color, substance and keeping it healthy. Cabbage, carrots, peas, bell peppers, broccoli, whatever is in the fridge and needs to be used very soon, before it goes bad. Less meat, more veges - we're both happy while we have our third helping. Fried rice never acquires "leftovers" status in our house. Every grain is precious (like in the movie Empire of The Sun). Thanks for sharing your method and recipes. It's 5:30 AM, stayed up, stomach is growling and I need to eat!! Might as well skip sleep and make her breakfast before she goes to work. Right? I confess, I LOVE cooking. Thank you, Mom! 🙏🕉🙏
I love all your videos. I rewatch all of them. I have your cookbook and am so looking forward to your new one. Thank you so much for sharing your recipes. Hugs to you and Dude. ❤
I can't count the number of times I have watched you start a recipe in the wok by mostly-cooking 3 or 4 eggs. Always the same drill; always the same non-stick event. Brava, Flo!
Do you want to hear cheap and easy? You take leftover fried rice. Fry a little bit of bacon, normally I use crumbles. I then throw the rice into the pan, add three or four beaten eggs, move them around, so that they are cooked within the rice. Move that all around stir it make sure everything is blended. Then I add a little bit more so sauce and chopped green onions. There you have it rice, bacon, eggs, Soy sauce and green onions. I use this when I don’t have any chicken or other protein. Cheap and delicious.
Love your low cost recipes, how you talk us through the process and like how you speak clearly. Hope you have more like these coming. Thank you so much 💓
I've been making fried rice for many years for my asian husband (tell me how to get him to eat onions!) ;) but this is a first for the ground beef and the bacon! He will freak out on the bacon and I have to try it. :) Thanks so much!
Other than convenience, there’s another very good reason to cook extra rice and chill it overnight in the fridge to cook and eat later. Chilling/freezing cooked rice for at least 24 hours apparently reduces its glycemic index.
Flo and Dude, I hear you on the price of food. When the price of food at Asian markets goes through the roof, ( price is usually much lower than Western markets) you know we are in for a rough ride! We normally don't eat out very often as we want to know what we put in my food and we also want to control the quality of the ingredients.
Hi! This is almost the same way I am doing it! The new for me, was doing the eggs first. I do not have a wok, so the biggest frying pan is used. When my kids was in 2nd and 3rd grade (almost 30 yrs ago), they would INHALE my fried rice. Had to make up 2 pans for 2 adults and 2 kids... same ingredients as you, bacon and a mixed frozen vegetables (carrots, peas and corn). Going to do the eggs first from now on...😁 Thank you for sharing! ❤
You should show people how to crack your eggs on the countertop, not the edge of the bowl, to prevent eggs shells. Yummy fried rice! New subscriber. Love it, &&& your faith!
Yes. Not necessary use overnight rice. I make most of my fried rice fresh. Ratio 1:1, I steam 50 mins. Rice dry enough by water control. Can immediately fried rice perfect too. Fried rice best red chinese sausage, french beans, onion, fried garlic, prawns Meat & ice lettuce or any green leaf available. Taste delicious.
Fried Rice is a great way to get a second meal out of day old rice. I actually make more rice than I need when making the first meal so I have plenty left over to make fried rice 😋 Thank you Flo!
Probably you may try the shrimp paste from Thailand. The taste is good and goes very well with garlic and not too strong smell. Please try and you will love it. I really recommend.
great video-- i have been doing fried rice dishes for ages BUT without all the details-- i also use frozen PEAS or Frozen PEAS & CARROTS works good also
Fry the belacan with a little oil so it will break up. Also, I microwave the rice for 2 mins, covered, so the lump of rice is loosened and takes less time to fry.
Flo you are the best THANK YOU so much for these recipes I love fried rice and I’ve never ever made it until tonight you made it so easy to follow you and by the way my fried rice came out absolutely amazing once again you are the best ❤️
Love your recipes. I really need cheap recipes. I am on social security and when my grocery bill went from $100 per trip to $300, I cannot afford to eat. I bought one cookbook from you, unfortunately may not have the money for the new one. Sorry. // Interesting, I never cut the bacon and then cook it in my Wok, shall try this. // Yes, I CAN smell it, yum. // Just checked, I think I can afford the Kindle version of your new cookbook. // Iceberg Lettuce? hmm, not Bok Choy or something fancy? YES, stretch the food.
I like to keep cooked bacon in the fridge and freezer in a zip lock baggy to put on salad or baked potatoes or on a avocado sandwich because I hate cooking bacon. I try to fry up a lot. Or you can buy it in a bag cooked already. Anyway I agree the more bacon the better. Lol I never knew you could put bacon in fried rice. I wish they would sell Chinese bbq pork to add to dishes , rice, wonton soup etc.
Put bacon on a rack over a tray and bake it at 350 till done. Can do multiple trays at once. Typical for many restaurants to have it available throughout the day.
Subscribed due to your awesomeness in the kitchen lol... Definitely going to make maybe all of these lol .. Look forward to your other videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! 😍
Happy Sunday, Flo and Dude! This was a great compilation of super easy and super tasty (‘cept I’m not sure about that Belanchan) recipes. Will try for sure! TFS, Sharon ♥️🤗
Thanks so much for a very inspiring dinner and sharing how you can mix and match so many different foods together and have them turn out fabulous rice and pasta always something to go to always can do something with
All of those dishes cost more than $5.00 to make bcz of the prices of good chicken, good beef, good pork and good bacon. 12 & 16 ounce pkgs. of bacon are $6.00 or more unless you find a sale & fresh bacon at the butcher's has increased in price as well. Not being a troll, but the dishes you're preparing cost more than $5.00 and eggs are very expensive now unless you have your own hen house, Lol! Our family needs the whole twice what you're preparing... My sons and I all love wok stir- fry, rice and noodle Asian dishes... especially Chinese recipes. Your dishes look so good and I will be making them; but food prices have hit an all time high and there are no more $5.00 dishes in my household... again, I have sons and the can really eat. I love leftover rice. Thanks for sharing your recipes... appreciate it!
Hi Flo, I certainly do hope that you get this message, I was wondering, can I use turkey bacon with this recipe? It’s not as fatty so I don’t know if it’ll work, but I have a member of my family that is allergic to pork
Just clip your green onions off the top leave the root in the ground . Will keep growing ! You can take bottom stalk of Celery lettuce cabbage abt 1 inch or so ! They can all be planted straight I n to soil they will grow! I leave the top exposed bury the root part. Keep watered and be amazed👍👍
Fried rice can be enjoyed so many ways and can be an inexpensive meal to feed your family. Eat well. Save money. Happy Sunday! 💕
Thankyou so much . Really- just perfect .
My son and I make fried rice all the time. Filling and cheap! Thanks for sharing. 💕✌🏽
I love fryed rice how come you don't u@e ginger?
How about Fried Rice Egg Rolls?
And it's really FAST! If the rice is already cooked, Sha-zam!

Thanks for the oven drying tip; chilled rice makes a healthier food (because of the starch content I hear) yet I don't always have time to chill rice.

Your reply answered my question, l was wondering if I could freeze rice thanks😀
Uncle Roger would "put his leg off his chair" or flip his chopstick! Using white sugar is a "white people fail' as he says. You must use brown sugar.

I just asked if can freeze it LoL thanks
Thanks these are great recipes
without a lot of the expense.
I could live on this forever !
Hi Flo, just found you today. I love the way you cook, very casual in a way that inspires others to try it out also. I definately will.
So happy to hear I can regrow my green onions from the roots. I will start some today when I cook one of your tasty rice meals. Green onions are expensive in Florida stores.
Our mother made a fantastic fried rice. Raising five kids alone was not easy, but what a champion our mother was!
Great recipes, thank you❣️
What kind did she make ?
Being from Hawaii, fried rice is huge out here. Shrimp fried rice is my favorite!!! Extra garlic!!
Inexpensive meals are what we all need right now. ❤

What an outstanding teacher you are.I can’t wait to try some fried rice my way.
Great voice (I am hard of hearing), good instructions well explained and great sense of humor!! Fried rice has been one of my favorite dishes for many decades and these look super!! Thanks for sharing!
I never thought of using chopped beef for fried rice, what a great idea! No tenderizing, I’m going to make it this week! Thanks!😀
This is fantastic, I never thought to do a bacon and egg fried rice. I will do that next.
Made the Malaysian variety a couple months ago! Making it again tonight!! So so SO good! My local Asian markets only had shrimp paste in a jar, so I just used more since it wasn’t dehydrated like the belachan. 🤤 Thank you so much!!!

I use cut cooked hotdogs and onion with eggs for a breakfast meal so yummy!
My mother used to do that. She cut the hotdogs into bite size pieces, cooked the onion, then added beaten eggs and scrambled. We loved it.
Would like to know when your next cookbook will be available on Amazon...We have the Asian home-style book and love it, made your bacon fried rice today and garlic noodles looking forward to doing more soon... Thank you

I always enjoy your videos.
I love to add the Frozen peas and carrots to some of my stir-frys. Sadly my new partner hates peas.
Try asparagus spears (when in season) or Chinese gai lan (look for the smaller stems. Blanch until use tender with a bit of sugar and garlic clove. Then add it to the fried rice)
Heat your peas and put them on the side for yourself. Good to eat the foods your own body likes.
@@waymanw69 what about green beans ? I usually chop them, then blanch them and it adds a nice green colour and fibre too.
You can buy that shrimp/fish paste in glass jars at Asian grocery stores (NOT in the Indian stores). The Filipinos call it "bagong", smelly and delish (as is durian), stays in the fridge for years. My wife can't stand it. More for me!

Hi! This is almost the same way I am doing it! The new for me, was doing the eggs first. I do not have a wok, so the biggest frying pan is used.

Flo, you are such a good teacher.☺
I enjoy the way you cook.
Thank you
great video-- i have been doing fried rice dishes for ages BUT without all the details-- i also use frozen PEAS or Frozen PEAS & CARROTS works good also
Happy Lunar new year! 2023 🐰
Fry the belacan with a little oil so it will break up. Also, I microwave the rice for 2 mins, covered, so the lump of rice is loosened and takes less time to fry.
Flo you are the best THANK YOU so much for these recipes I love fried rice and I’ve never ever made it until tonight you made it so easy to follow you and by the way my fried rice came out absolutely amazing once again you are the best ❤️
Yum! Perfect for me, cooking for one person.
I have never seen the ground beef version but i like all of these. Fried rice is some of my favorite. Crave it often lol
I've never seen a version of fried rice with bacon before
I love fried rice also Flo Lum and you know you can cook girl!!!!!!!!! I love all of your meals!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you....
Love your recipes. I really need cheap recipes. I am on social security and when my grocery bill went from $100 per trip to $300, I cannot afford to eat. I bought one cookbook from you, unfortunately may not have the money for the new one. Sorry. // Interesting, I never cut the bacon and then cook it in my Wok, shall try this. // Yes, I CAN smell it, yum. // Just checked, I think I can afford the Kindle version of your new cookbook. // Iceberg Lettuce? hmm, not Bok Choy or something fancy? YES, stretch the food.
Love these $5 recipes. More please! I grown my own green onions too!
I made spam fried rice a few months ago, and it was so good!
I have often found spam in takeaway singapore noodles
🤣2 months later and the price of eggs has gone crazy but still a good way to stretch your grocery budget. Yummy recipes 😋
Bird flu.
Eggs are still much cheaper than meat.
I love visiting the food banks, they really help out!
Thank you so much for your work! Great recipes, but most importantly techniques! Much love to you! 🙏🦋
To keep shrimp paste in refrigerator wrap tightly and place into a pint or quart size glass jar with lid
I like to keep cooked bacon in the fridge and freezer in a zip lock baggy to put on salad or baked potatoes or on a avocado sandwich because I hate cooking bacon.
I try to fry up a lot.
Or you can buy it in a bag cooked already.
Anyway I agree the more bacon the better. Lol
I never knew you could put bacon in fried rice.
I wish they would sell Chinese bbq pork to add to dishes , rice, wonton soup etc.
Put bacon on a rack over a tray and bake it at 350 till done. Can do multiple trays at once. Typical for many restaurants to have it available throughout the day.
I love fried rice too. Simple or busy with lots of added veg. Cold with Coronation Chicken or just with salad.
Subscribed due to your awesomeness in the kitchen lol... Definitely going to make maybe all of these lol .. Look forward to your other videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! 😍
So glad you are back I enjoy your recipes & the way you explain recipe as you go.
Happy Sunday, Flo and Dude! This was a great compilation of super easy and super tasty (‘cept I’m not sure about that Belanchan) recipes. Will try for sure! TFS, Sharon ♥️🤗
❤made it tonight! Thank you AB! 🔥
Just what I needed. I luv fried rice but have never made it, although I keep thinking about making it. LOL. Now I can. Thank you. 🤗
"Use whatever is left over in your 'frig..." Thank you! Practical and real - and delicious! 🙂
I love fried rice in all its forms, tastes, texture
That looks so good. I love fried rice. I will buy your cookbook.
Thanks so much for a very inspiring dinner and sharing how you can mix and match so many different foods together and have them turn out fabulous rice and pasta always something to go to always can do something with
All of those dishes cost more than $5.00 to make bcz of the prices of good chicken, good beef, good pork and good bacon. 12 & 16 ounce pkgs. of bacon are $6.00 or more unless you find a sale & fresh bacon at the butcher's has increased in price as well.
Not being a troll, but the dishes you're preparing cost more than $5.00 and eggs are very expensive now unless you have your own hen house, Lol! Our family needs the whole twice what you're preparing... My sons and I all love wok stir- fry, rice and noodle Asian dishes... especially Chinese recipes.
Your dishes look so good and I will be making them; but food prices have hit an all time high and there are no more $5.00 dishes in my household... again, I have sons and the can really eat.
I love leftover rice. Thanks for sharing your recipes... appreciate it!
Love watching your videos. Wondering if all the recipes in your new book have onions in them. I cannot eat any kind of onion.
Hi Flo, I certainly do hope that you get this message, I was wondering, can I use turkey bacon with this recipe? It’s not as fatty so I don’t know if it’ll work, but I have a member of my family that is allergic to pork
Sure… beauty of fried rice, use whatever you want. If there is not enough fat (if it sticks to the pan or it looks too dry), just add more oil.
Looks really good! I especially like the idea of removing as much salt as possible from the Spam. Good job!
The fried rice is very delicious, thank you for the recipe, mom
👋,, how are you doing today; how’s everything; hope it was a wonderful day for you Sazara?
Just clip your green onions off the top leave the root in the ground . Will keep growing ! You can take bottom stalk of Celery lettuce cabbage abt 1 inch or so ! They can all be planted straight I n to soil they will grow! I leave the top exposed bury the root part. Keep watered and be amazed👍👍
