If I’m ordering or eating out my all time favorite is the “House Special “. Chicken pork egg and shrimp. If I make it myself I’ll use one or all, whatever I have maybe only veggies and eggs
FLO.....Fun fact......cooling rice overnight and then reheating it INCRESES the resistant starch (a good thing) and REDUCES the insulin response (another good thing) - so fried rice is healthy! There's scientific papers written on this topic and the same benefits happen for other cooked and cooled starches like potatoes and pasta - even if they are then reheated. I love fried rice and your version looks DELICIOUS - lovely chunky bits plus those prawns sure beat the mass of rice with a few treasures dotting the landscape which is the norm for a lot of places. Cheers from Oz!!
@@quantumbacon My comment was about the health benefits of cooling and reheating carbs - like rice - but the same applies to pasta and potatoes. Safe food handling is a different topic.
@@quantumbacon Your comment is ridiculous and absurd. By your logic, as long as you correctly handle a frankenfood, manufactured from God knows what processed shit and chemicals, it's still healthy. Safe food handling and healthy food are two separate issues.
@@andersonomo597 To prevent food poisoning from bacteria in rice, you can: Refrigerate quickly: Cool cooked rice in the fridge as soon as possible, ideally within an hour. Don't store at room temperature: Don't leave cooked rice at room temperature for long periods of time.
There is something so soothing watching Flo prep the ingredients. I'm going to use bacon 🥓 when I try to replicate this recipie. I hope the reactions will be as genuinely appreciative as Dudes😊
My favorite Chinese restaurant's offering of fried rice in a combination meal resembles nothing like fried rice a person can make at home. The add-ins are sparse and chopped very fine. Home made is superior! Your fried rice recipes are always successful for me, thank you for sharing them. You save us all so much money too!
Nice and simple fried rice , my dish tomorrow as I was looking what to prepare only thing is to go the market to get bacon , very good idea plus I will have leftovers for another day. Have a great weekend everyone.
When I make fried rice I use only Jasmine or Basmati rice, either ground beef or ground pork, shrimp, sweet peas, Chinese sausage, eggs, and lots of green onions. Thanks for sharing your recipe. 🙏 🫂 🕊️ 😊
Love this, thank you!! I really enjoy your channel! Brings back the nostalgia of being a kid watching my parents cook. Now I can create such memories too with my family. 🥰
Flo, I agree about the carrots. I don't get fried rice or even Mexican rice when they add carrots. At home it is cheaper and I don't get any ingredients I don't like. Thanks for always sharing a quick recipe that also saves us money. Have a blessed week.
Great video! I make this for my family, and they love it! I use pretty much the same ingredients you use, and add some dried shrimp, Chinese sausage, sesame seed, garlic, and butter. One of my favorite types of fried rice is Lamb Fried Rice, from an Islamic Chinese Restaurant! However, when I'm at any Asian restaurant, I have my family pick out every piece of Cilantro from any dish that has it! I can taste even the smallest, vile stem of Cilantro! LOL!
I just simplyly love your videos. You explain things so easy.. give up tips on what if anything we can use instead... Reminds me of a TV cooking show ... a little while back (wink) of a young lady who sounds so much like you that cooked on it. I watched another one today... "How to Make Dan Dan Mian (Sichuan Noodles with Chili Sauce and Pork)".... I hope all are safe and healthy... watching from the Great Smoky Mountain, in Tennessee. Been a rough time down here and in North Carolina...
My favorite ingredient in fried rice is the egg…and there’s never enough of it in take-out. I think that means I have to use this great, simple recipe to satisfy my craving! TFS and Happy Weekend, Flo and Dude! ♥️🤗🍚🌾
I always keep some frozen mixed veggies to toss in my fried rice. Peas, corn, carrots and beans. I make lots of rice to have leftovers for fried rice. One of my favorite dishes.
I actually microwaved my leftover rice so it is a little warm before using it for stir fry like Daddy Lau said to and it worked really well to get it broken up again
I don’t like carrots in my fried rice either. I like to add minced garlic and white onion. I mix soy sauce, oyster sauce and sesame oil and just a little water for my sauce.
Hi Flo & Dude 👋🏼 Really love your channel….thank you for the amazing recipes. I’ve been trying to find a wok to purchase, can you recommend one like yours? Many thanks! Keep up the great work 👏🏼. Flo…your hair looks awesome 🥰
Hamburger and chicken for me. I don't eat pork of any kind if I can avoid and I just don't like shrimp LOL Otherwise this is a simple recipe even I can do! Thank you. :)
No you don’t have to season it. I bought it almost 25 years ago and that was the main reason because I didn’t know how to take of a carbon steel one at that time.
It’s so funny how we are all particular with what goes into our fried rice, for me I don’t like green peas. 😂 This looks delicious! I love Chinese sausages in my fried rice. Do you have a video on the chicken, salted fish fried rice? Always a fan of your channel. All the best.💛
I do love your channel, Flo. I’m a longtime subscriber. And I love fried rice with barbecue pork. It’s just that it spikes my blood sugar so dramatically.
@@FloLumI’m looking forward to your recipe! Do you know if we can use the salted cod fishes in the western supermarket, if an Asian supermarket is not nearby?
You should collab on a video or two w/ Pailin of Hot Thai Kitchen; she also lives in Vancouver. Also love Aaron & Claire, a young Korean couple; they're hilarious & he's a great cook!
Listen....picking things out? I think your dad's soulmate was my brother.......the last time he came up before he passed away, we had pizza and he was picking things off left and right while my 4 y/o granddaughter watched him........I was so mad!
I can’t stand the peas and carrots that is practically always found. My aunt was from Okinawa. She cooked amazing dishes, never was there any peas and carrots!🤨
What’s your favourite ingredient in fried rice? Happy weekend! 💕
The char siu, of course!
If I’m ordering or eating out my all time favorite is the “House Special “. Chicken pork egg and shrimp. If I make it myself I’ll use one or all, whatever I have maybe only veggies and eggs
Garlic, eggs and some sort of protein.
shrimp + scallions is my favorite, but I'm thinking about making a beef + yellow onion version (of course, I'd need soy sauce & sesame oil for both)
The eggs and onion are my favorite parts.
I don't know what's more enjoyable, watching the recipe, or the fellow eating it at the end, his enjoyment was very nice to see.

This depends on the rate at which you chill them.
Bacteria love warm starchy grainy environments.

"Health Benefits" are implicitly related to safe food handling.

Hi Flo you inspired me to grow my own green onions!! They’re almost ready to harvest, love your vids!!

Molly - Fantastic recipe / thanks for sharing. ❤
This is the only fried rice I eat. It's delicious. Thank you for the recipe Flo.
Looks delicious, now I'm hungry and it's close to midnight in Australia, your cookbook is used weekly in our house. Robyn
So glad it’s useful! Appreciate the support!
Last time I made fried rice I made it with bacon, char siu, peas, carrots & eggs. It came out SSSSOOOO good!!!!
Can’t go wrong with both bacon AND char siu!!
When I make fried rice I use only Jasmine or Basmati rice, either ground beef or ground pork, shrimp, sweet peas, Chinese sausage, eggs, and lots of green onions. Thanks for sharing your recipe. 🙏 🫂 🕊️ 😊

Love this, thank you!! I really enjoy your channel! Brings back the nostalgia of being a kid watching my parents cook. Now I can create such memories too with my family. 🥰
You and me both, Flo! LOVE me some fried rice! It makes for a wonderful meal. God bless you both in your efforts.

I have made your fried rice recipe from your cookbook so many times. Everyone who tried it loved it. Thank you for all those delicious recipes ❤️
Aw! So glad they are helpful!
Looks delicious! Like Chofra rice- I want to go buy ribs & shrimp to prepare my own now- your wok looks nice also!
I definitely try to cook this tomorrow morning for our breakfast😋😋😋 thnks flo, perfect for this weather its started already fall season here in🇨🇦

Fried rice is comfort food. I especially love Thai fried rice. I like the smoky flavor from the wok

Dude would say the same! 🥚🥚🥚🥚
Have not tried fried rice yet. Thank you. Have to try it out.
What?! You’ve been following for quite some time, Matt. 😉 You’ve got to give it a try. It’s the perfect dish to make with leftovers of all kinds.
I always keep some frozen mixed veggies to toss in my fried rice. Peas, corn, carrots and beans. I make lots of rice to have leftovers for fried rice. One of my favorite dishes.
I actually microwaved my leftover rice so it is a little warm before using it for stir fry like Daddy Lau said to and it worked really well to get it broken up again
Hands down !!shrimp

Yum. I need to master making char soup as I love it in fried rice. What a great meal or snack!
Always love to watch you cooking..😊 I'm using most of your recipes..I love it ..😊
So glad you are enjoying the recipes!
Wow! This looks amazing. Thanks, Flo! ✌️❤️
I'm a sucker for a really good 'house special' fried rice !!! 🤩😍🤩
Your meals look soo much better than restaurants. ❤
Aw… that’s so very kind!
We loveee this rice, my kids devour it up so I’ve been wanting to make it at home! Ty
I want some for brekkie.. :( :-)
Great presentation and instruction!
Forget "Uncle Roger!" You are the best!
Great fun. Thank you. My mouth is watering.
That looks pertty good! I'll have to give it a go!
I like chicken fried rice. This looks delicious. Thanks Flo.
Hi Flo & Dude 👋🏼 Really love your channel….thank you for the amazing recipes. I’ve been trying to find a wok to purchase, can you recommend one like yours? Many thanks! Keep up the great work 👏🏼.
Flo…your hair looks awesome 🥰
Very good video. I’ll be making this soon.
i often use the spicy sweet chinese sausage & cashews. i also finish with a little Shaoxing wine & sesame oil at the end.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing.
Dude i love your Job man ! agggh the taste
Wow! I will try these fried rice recipe! It looks good!🤤
Hamburger and chicken for me. I don't eat pork of any kind if I can avoid and I just don't like shrimp LOL Otherwise this is a simple recipe even I can do! Thank you. :)
That’s the beauty of fried rice, use what you like, avoid what you don’t.
This is just like the fried rice my Mom made. Even down to the peas no carrots lol. I know when I make this it'll taste like home. ❤
Beautiful dish Flo
Where is your stainless wok from? This is my favorite fried rice!
Bought it from a shop in our local Chinatown almost 25 years ago.
Also, putting cold rice in the microwave for 30 seconds or so helps in separating the rice.
Yummy 😋 😋 😋 Flo and Dude Prayers are going 🙏 for Everyone ❤❤❤😮😮😮😊😊😊
Looks very tasty.
Are bamboo sprouts still used in recipes ?
Fried rice is my fav.
Lovely
Looks delicious. Do you need to season a stainless steel wok?
No you don’t have to season it. I bought it almost 25 years ago and that was the main reason because I didn’t know how to take of a carbon steel one at that time.
Love it!
I mixed the egg yokes with the unfried rice, cook the egg white and remove.then cook all the stuff then add it all together
A bowl of fried rice like chicken soup for the soul
Thanks again Flo. Did you make your own char sui or did you buy it? I am thinking of going to T&T
I bought it this time.
It’s so funny how we are all particular with what goes into our fried rice, for me I don’t like green peas. 😂
This looks delicious! I love Chinese sausages in my fried rice. Do you have a video on the chicken, salted fish fried rice? Always a fan of your channel. All the best.💛
I love rice but to be honest, rice is nothing but a long chain of sugar molecules.
@@horsemanxxx1473😂 I do agree. I’ve heard wild rice or rye is low in sugar.
@zealiabella8553 Lol! Not yet… but it is also one of our faves!
I do love your channel, Flo. I’m a longtime subscriber. And I love fried rice with barbecue pork. It’s just that it spikes my blood sugar so dramatically.
@@FloLumI’m looking forward to your recipe! Do you know if we can use the salted cod fishes in the western supermarket, if an Asian supermarket is not nearby?
How can your dad not like green onions? That’s what really breathes life into fried rice.
Hi Flo this looks delicious! What type of of one burner element do you use? TIA 😊
It uses butane and I picked it up from an Asian market but there’s a link in the description of all my videos if you want more info.
Good
Flo, do you ever use MSG?
You should collab on a video or two w/ Pailin of Hot Thai Kitchen; she also lives in Vancouver. Also love Aaron & Claire, a young Korean couple; they're hilarious & he's a great cook!
Yummy
Yum
You know I'm summoning Uncle Roger right?😂
Oh dear…
@@FloLum I'm petty sure he won't be displeased!
😂😂😂🇦🇺🫶🏻
My mom told me that adding a little salt in the rice will help the rice to fall apart easier.
👍😎
Remember Flo if Dude ever kicks you out
If anyone’s going, it’s gonna be him. What makes you think it’ll be me?! 😆
@@FloLum just hoping
So simple; thanks Flo. And your dad was a little cuckoo, asking you to pick the green onion out of the fried rice. 🧐🙃
Lol… I think he just hated them that much! We wised up as we got older and told him to pick them out himself.
@@FloLum haha, perhaps your first act of gastronomic independence
Wish I had thought of that😂
I could eat char sui pork every day…
have you submitted this to uncle roger?
Listen....picking things out? I think your dad's soulmate was my brother.......the last time he came up before he passed away, we had pizza and he was picking things off left and right while my 4 y/o granddaughter watched him........I was so mad!
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...me like
bacon..chinese pork loin..shrimp.....carnivore
I can’t stand the peas and carrots that is practically always found. My aunt was from Okinawa. She cooked amazing dishes, never was there any peas and carrots!🤨
I think they just put them in for colour in North America. Some of the best fried rice I have ever had don’t have them either. LOL
lots of work! !!will try .
...ebbe..thang!!!
