Thanks to you guys, my wife wont order take-away anymore. She asks me to cook all her fave take-away meals. What she doesnt know is that all the recipes are from your channel. Keep up the good work. Im hungry now!
In Japan when making basic egg fried rice, we often use chicken oil instead of vegetable oil. We also add a few shakes of white pepper right at the end just before serving 🥢🍚 Love all your videos. You and your mum are a great team 👍
I still remember watching your first egg fried rice video and your mum said to listen for when the rice "sizzles like a snake". Still makes me chuckle.😊
I live in Germany where the UK/Irish style Chinese takeaway is non existent so your videos have helped me so much over here to fill the gap. Even got my German girlfriend who had never seen a chicken ball in her life is now addicted to them haha , so thank you both and keep the videos coming please.
In the old days 60's and 70's we didn't have woks in Aust, we used our frying pans, well my mom did and taught me how to cook fried rice on that and it worked out great. Thanks for many great videos.
Many thanks for this, I love the fact I can share this video with my son as there is no swearing, family friendly as my son loves cooking. I will keep an eye out for the videos with you and your mum. Cheers
I found your short video for making EFR and it was a game changer for me. I had a rice cooker already and I'm now making this at least once a week because my kids love it and ask for it. Thanks.
Definite Yes for me on this one. I've tried for years to make restaurant quality fried rice and always failed. Got it first time using this one, and made it loads of times since. Many thanks.
Just found you …. Thank you so much l love Chinese food…. Thank you for showing me how to cook it…. Fantastic keep up the good work…. Love mum and son relationship ❤
I have been making egg fried rice , from your original recipe , make it at least once a week , family love it saved me a fortune over the last couple of years, overnight rice and smg is the way forward. Thank you for so many great recipes.
In all seriousness guys I've watched plenty of videos about egg fried rice and this the the most informative and helpful I have seen. Kudos to you and I have subscribed to you chanel to see more recipes 😁
Honestly, I wasn't even going to watch this one, as I think I've got a few fried rice variations perfected... But still learned stuff from this that I'm eager to try out. Fantastic stuff!
I was taught that if you put sliced potato on the which will absorb the water and when you leave it to stand cover with a cloth. When I see it and after taste it, it was the most amazing rice I've had. Ever!! 😊
I've been using your other video now for a few years and this didn't change. Just some clarification on common questions which is nice. Great as always guys, fair play 🙂
Just tried this for the first time, probably needed more salt but since it's only for me I didn't mind, managed to make enough for four. Damn tasty, thank you.
Chilling the rice for a couple of hours or overnight was a game changer for me ✔I’d spent 40 odd yrs using freshly cooked rice and quite often ended up with a sticky gooey mess. Not a problem now though. It’s always these golden nuggets of information that make the difference between GOOD and GREAT ! Love to all 🥰🥰
After many years of trying this..I cooked your egg fried recipie and finally nailed it 👌🏻 Thank you. Next I did your char sui pork..Nailed it again. This was after trying your Chicken & sweetcorn soup...Lush. Thank you ❤
I cannot fault this video. Lots of good detail. It’s a deep dive on egg fried rice! I did take your advice and get a rice cooker in the end. I have cooked perfect in various other ways but every now and then it goes wrong. Good consistent results from now on hopefully.
Trust use, out of the hundreds of thousands of people we’ve helped, we’ve never had someone say “the rice cooker was a bad idea” always “you’re right, rice cooker is better”
@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop I can believe it. I tried my rice cooker today and it is good. Also cheap to run - only 300W. Keep making the videos they are very entertaining as well as good info.
Thanks guys, another great video. It’s not just the recipes, knowing all the right tools to use is a great help. I’m going straight on to Amazon for one of those rice cookers!
love yoru channel and your mom is just the cutest :D keep up the good work and sharing your hints, tips and pointers its really elevated my cooking at home
I bought a rice cooker last week and tried out this recipe and was so happy with how it came out! It tasted so much like the takeaway one :) I'm looking forward to taking some for lunch tomorrow! :D
I love all your videos but this was is exceptional every question anyone can ask about egg fried rice is answered and I love how even though your recipes are Spectacular you don't preach its so nice to see excellent humble chefs... Great as always thank you both 👍👍
Right.. I’m absolutely over the bloody moon I found you again! I’ve been so poorly and a lot of hospital stays with no phone, and finally, I found you again! I was that bored I had an argument with a Chinese man about msg 😅 no seriously haha. You both make my day, every dish I’ve followed through you has been amazing! Now I’m getting my appetite back I’m stalking you guys 😂 thank you so much for your honesty, skills and above all just pure joy
I started using your recipe a few years ago now, and at the beginning everything was great. My issue recently is that the rice won't clump at all. It looks ok fresh out the rice cooker, but the next day the rice is so separated and won't come back together even during frying. After this video I'm going back to basics, using some of the extra info I've got from your tips here and trying again.
Of course you like what you like. You and your mum prefer slightly more moist rice. But you also leave the rice overnight to dry out a little. My method produces rice that can be stir fried in only a few minutes of resting. I can really recommend cooking rice in a microwave. I buy long grain 'easy cook' rice but also wash it until the water is almost clear. Swishing it round with my fingers, change the water and then repeat a further two times. I then put it in a microwaveable container with a lid. I add enough water so that it is just above the fingernail on my index finger (I have large hands like you, if i go to the first knuckle, then it's too much.) My current microwave is only 700W I think, so I do it on full power for 25mins, but years ago I had a 900w and it was just over 15mins I think. Basically you need to experiment with your microwave. But once it is cooked I leave it for 10 minutes, then fluff it with a fork. 9 times out of ten it will be perfect. If I feel it's slightly too wet, I'll fluff it and then leave it with the lid off and if its only a little dry, I add a handful of frozen peas! then put the lid on. The heat from the rice will cook the peas and the extra moisture will finish the rice. I've been cooking rice like that for over 20 years and have even been gifted an expensive rice cooker that I have never used.
I discovered you guys when I was looking for a 'real' old school fried rice recipe and I've been cooking it (and other dishes of yours) this way ever since! Here in Australia our Chinese takeaway places used to be very similar to the UK, but they've changed a lot over the years so I really appreciate learning how to make some of the classic dishes I grew up with from your channel. Thanks muchly!
OMG! I just followed this video step by step, using "MSG" as directed (purchased from your website) and it's worked perfectly. It's so tasty, I could eat the egg fried rice on it's own. Thank you so much!
Just bought my first rice cooker and its a game changer, perfect rice every time. Thanks for another great video! Mrs Ziang making toast in the microwave made me laugh 😂
This week I made both your chicken and sweetcorn soup ( woth my home made chicken stock)and the sweet and sour sauce. Both are flippin' amazing. Thank you xxx
Hi guy's I've been subscribed to you for around 3 years now and have your cook books which are amazing and they are so easy to follow in layman's term, I use pearl river soy sauce and lucky Boat noodles and i treated myself to a so Asia rice cooker for £85 and never looked back but yes i like my rice fluffy sorry, I use an induction hob to get the heat and I'm regularly cooking for family and friends, also I've got a lot of your own products which again make such a difference, if anyone else reads this i would say buy the books (bibles) and start cooking great food, love to you and mum, 🍻
Yes, to the rice, chips, and sauce video. I have the same rice cooker it is brilliant. I usually baste the bottom of the pot with a little butter to stop it sticking and browning. Love your videos 😊
I usually make my rice dishes with long brown rice. I rinse it once in a sieve and then add more water with a stock cube dissolved in it, I cook it for about 15 to 20 minutes stirring only once. It usually comes out perfectly. If I make egg fried I was taught to add the rice to the sesame seed oil and pour over the beaten egg into it. Usually this works exactly how I like it. I will however take your recipe and see how different it is to my own. Thank you for the useful tips and advice.
Thanks for the tutorial, I will definitely be trying it out. I really enjoy watching the great relationship between you two, your mum is so precious and always makes me laugh when she gets the English sayings mixed up! I learnt one special thing from the video and that is THUMBS RULE!
PLEASE LIKE and COMMENT, its helps us so much! Thanks in advance you legends!
Where can you get the rice
Wow I can taste it 😮 all the from your wok to my mouth 😅
Robbie from huyton Liverpool UK
Once the rice is in the wok with the eggs how long do you cook the rice for?
Do you leave it 15 mins to cool after it has finished cooking x
I think I can talk for the masses when I say we 100% want to see an egg fried rice, chips & curry sauce recipe!😊😊😊
Noted!
@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop 😍😍
Definitely
Agreed...
I agree, but how can we Brits turn an excellent world class cuisine into (albeit tasty) soft adult baby food? 🤔🤔🙄🙄 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks to you guys, my wife wont order take-away anymore. She asks me to cook all her fave take-away meals. What she doesnt know is that all the recipes are from your channel. Keep up the good work. Im hungry now!

@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop I just tried the mix of rice i.e. 2:1 and the whole measure water to knuckle trick.....BEST RICE EVER !!!
In Japan when making basic egg fried rice, we often use chicken oil instead of vegetable oil. We also add a few shakes of white pepper right at the end just before serving 🥢🍚 Love all your videos. You and your mum are a great team 👍
Yeah this is uk takeaway so nothing like a traditional fried rice, we’d normally cook with lard :)
I have a rice cooker I brought back to UK when I left Hong Kong. It’s 36 years old and still going strong!
😊😊😊
Nothing to do with egg fried rice but Congratulations on being a finalist on this years Golden Chop Stick awards. Much deserved. Let’s hope you win 🤞
Thanks so much! but we're up against the winners from last year and not many people for YT and socials voted for us so I think they've won
Well if you get Ken Hom to sign his book you got gifted during lockdown he may decide to make you winners 😂🤣😂
I still remember watching your first egg fried rice video and your mum said to listen for when the rice "sizzles like a snake". Still makes me chuckle.😊
hahah its over 6 years old now!

Soying up the rice and declumping/mixing before cooking makes so much sense, thankyou! 🙏

You are both absolutely delightful to watch, I love the authenticity of the presentation as much as your lovely recipe!
The mixing of different rice(s) to get both different texture and added flavor is bloody brilliant!
Thanks :) its just what some places do :)
Dear me, so many channels are just going with a lot of faff while this is the pure essence of what to do. Great!
Thank you, means a lot to hear
I remember this channel from lockdown.. it warms my heart to see it do so well.
Thank you 😊
