Love the slight vlog style to this slightly longer video. Would be happy to see it more often without losing the old and efficient format every now and then as well
Thanks for the feedback. I wanted to see if this kind of thing would be easier and quicker for me to edit with the commentary style instead of a voiceover. It wasn’t 🫠
you are probably the most "real" food channel there is - which is to say "the only useful one". thank you for practical tips for living and keeping the mistakes in too.
Quick tip, when you add the soy sauce, add it around the edge of the wok so it sears for a quick second before touching the food. Adds a bit more depth
J-Kenji recommends that when you're using a walk to pour the soy sauce around the sides of the pan so he soy sauce cooks. Just food for thought any little hack to get the most flavor into meal prep.
Dude I didn’t know you were Chamorro!! I’m a new subscriber and an adoptive father of two lovely girls from Guam! I would be interested in learning more Chamorro cuisine (Spam Musubi is the extent of my experience so far). Thanks for the great content!
I’m a firm believer that vinegar brings a much needed touch of acidity to any fried rice. It keeps the whole thing from feeling too “dank”. Brightens it up a little.
I have come to really appreciate your recipes/videos. You are the only channel that agrees with me on vegetables but you still put them in your recipes. You keep the recipes simple (most) and do meal prep. Thank you!
I really like the thrown together feel of this. I love your other videos and have tried at least half of all the recipes you have uploaded to youtube, and made the Japanese Curry and Firecracker Brussle sprouts (sometimes with pulled pork shoulder) over and over and over again. I am also a newly elected Snack City Mayor and will never give up ruling with an iron fist.
The trick I use with my fried rices is that rather than salt I use powdered bouillon (specifically i use the soup-in-a-mug stuff - it adds a meatiness whether you are using beef or chicken and also has MSG included for flavor depth)
You must read minds bc I was thinking to myself a few days past, "Hmm, how to make healthy fried rice?" and sure if enough here you are. Thanks for all your teachings, Josh!
Did you add too much soy sauce in because you took off the no fun cap again? Jk great recipe bro since following your recipes I’ve lost 10 lbs. thank you for making great food and fun videos
I was surprised when I came to the UK and found out that people here think of spam as disgusting poor people food. Cus back home (China) we love spam😂 It is my go to for hot pot ramen noodle and fried rice
i like how this video has a bit of a different feel to it. most of your dialogue is "live" rather than commentatiing over pre-recorded video. kitchen is looking quite sexy! not to mention the food of course.
in the beginning you holding the zuchini and saying 'i'm gonna put them where they belong' made me think of a whole different place for you to put that zuchini also with the soy sauce that's why the no-fun tops exist (but you already know that lol)
Aint gonna lie I always though spam was like some digusting vegetable combo minced together and pressed together and processed to look like some kind of meat, most from the name, I really have no idea where I got that idea, but I thought it was something gross just based ont the name. After watching, and then looking at it, I'm gonna have to try some spam lmao.
my mom used to just do straight up spam, egg, and green onion... Sometimes she would add bacon too... That was her favorite way of doing it. I do it more like you do though.
spam is so delicious. and if you use the turkey or the lite versions, it's really not the most terrible thing for you in terms of macros. i mean its not the best thing either, but we've all eaten worse. the micronutrients are a different story, but thats what veggies are for amirite
@@Brodmann312 that seems to be the general consensus. i watched a few other fried rice videos after posting this question & they all use previously cooked/ day old rice.
I hate rice for I love it so much yet it's very calorie dense. Nice recipes! Don't leave your cam too long in the fridge, might damage the batteries :P
5:43 “watch this, I learned this in prison” freaken killed me 😂
Been trying to convince my gf that spam can be used in good food with actual nutritional value. Thanks for giving me argument ammo!
If she doesn't succumb, it might be time to part ways.
The spam is still trash in this
I also find that the Lite Spam basically tastes the same for way better macros.
You mean…Spammo?
lol whether it's with other food or not doesn't change the nutritional value of spam itself. Tough argument
Spoiler: The secret ingredient is crime
That’s why I steal all my fried rice straight from the source. Saves time on meal prep too
After watching I can agree.
Chance would be a fine thing. A fine thing indeed.

Also my condolences for when Uncle Roger gets ahold of you, but I don't think you did too bad

I swear to God I was thinking of preparing a good macro fried rice just this morning (European time morning, so 10 hours ago) Thank you Josh!
This one isn’t so macro friendly but definitely very good 😎
It’s either MSG or Spam, betting a decent chunk on it.
Porque no los dos?

do this with the sesame oil too
For sure. It helps with the wok hei flavor.

Your kitchen looks good man, would love a house tour
Thank you, I’ll show the kitchen when it’s fully finished 👍
@@TheMealPrepManual do you need a gas cook top to use that wok efficiently? We only have an electric top 😔
i proposed that same idea in comments on the previous video! glad I'm not the only person interested.
Thank you. Wish you were
my bf… lol
your girlfriend must be lucky 🍀 😊

I swear his face doesn’t match his voice. He got the voice of a 40 year old
Haha I get that so often
Prolly wish you had that no fun cap on your Soy sauce now 🤣
And that is what we call a mess up. You are only human bro, still turned out looking a treat, great video
You killed me with the prison joke🤣🤣🤣
I'll be honest, i have yet to make any of your recipes but I just enjoy watching you. Your vibe is just awesome

Great idea! I wonder if I can use that wet better than boullion stuff without adding moisture.
Never underestimate the mental aspect of uniform ingredient size when trying to sell a dish either.
Works om my kids (almost) every time.

Waiting for Uncle Roger to react to this 😅 - looks good!
I've been making misc fried rice for decades with leftovers. Awesome yummy food. :)
Glad your teaching others how simple it is.
Good luck, have fun.
Wow, I didn't know you were chamorro! I was stationed in Guam for 3 years, and the fiesta plates were bussin on wednesday nights!
Hafa adai 👋
If you aren't cooking 20lbs of rice a week are you really meal preping?
😎😎
This man refrigerated his camera for our benefit
😎
You must read minds bc I was thinking to myself a few days past, "Hmm, how to make healthy fried rice?" and sure if enough here you are. Thanks for all your teachings, Josh!
I thought you were joking about the Spam! I thought my parents were the only ones who ate that, LOL!
Did you add too much soy sauce in because you took off the no fun cap again? Jk great recipe bro since following your recipes I’ve lost 10 lbs. thank you for making great food and fun videos
Add an over easy egg on top and it takes it to the next level. Serve with side of spicy soup.
“Love that for me” omgul using that from now on!
I've never tried spam before....I might give this a try.
Wtf is spam, I swear every day the english language gets worse 😅 I thought spam only came thru emails
Dang man, I didnt know you were chamorro! I use a lot of your vids to meal prep and theyve been working well so far!
Josh that actually wasnt a mess up.... the prisoners always use way more soy sauce than needed. I guess your prison street cred cant be hidden....
I grew up on Saipan! Spam fried rice topped with a fried egg is my go-to quick meal!
little fact:
"Zwilling" is the german Word for "twin"
Was I high or did josh have a bistek with a chipotle sauce meal????
🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺😎 will be making tomorrow! 🤙🏽
How did spam get that popular in the islands of the Pacific?
I was surprised when I came to the UK and found out that people here think of spam as disgusting poor people food. Cus back home (China) we love spam😂 It is my go to for hot pot ramen noodle and fried rice
It was the only meat some Brits could afford during the war, so that's why it's regarded as poor people food.
Josh, it's time to put the No Fun cap back on. :( Great looking recipes as usual!
I refuse to do it
Spam's a deal breaker but maybe with some turkey...
Uncle Roger needs to see this fried rice 😋
MSG is wonderful. Seriously.
watching this after throwing away the extra rice i didnt need
Spam? Orrr just use chicken.
did we go to the same prison?
Probably
mistakes make it so much more entertaining to watch
I learned this in Prison? Thats funny!
how much are they paying you!?!?!
stop it with the thumb!! I've already asked you nicely, eat like a person plz.

Meal prepped version of this?
Love this for you man😂😂😂
Can you do a meal with Flank steak?
Stumbled upon this video, and then you said Chamorro! I am from Guam myself, glad to see success in your channel!
I really like this loose form video. It would be really cool to see more of these.
What were you in prison for?

Aint gonna lie I always though spam was like some digusting vegetable combo minced together and pressed together and processed to look like some kind of meat, most from the name, I really have no idea where I got that idea, but I thought it was something gross just based ont the name.

When I make fried rice it has 1500 calories and weighs about a kilo and a half.
I'm sure mine is the same. If not worse at times
my mom used to just do straight up spam, egg, and green onion... Sometimes she would add bacon too... That was her favorite way of doing it. I do it more like you do though.
The real secret ingredient is msg.
I've grown up on spam and my non-Asian friends never understood why we ate spam. Turns out they just don't know how to cook it 👹
you should put soy sause on side of wok
im actually more upset that you used store bought kimchi than spam LOL...
Theres a place by my work that has kimchi fried rice and wow what a unique taste. Looks just like yours. Cant wait to make it myself.
You hold a fork like a 4 year old
spam is so delicious. and if you use the turkey or the lite versions, it's really not the most terrible thing for you in terms of macros. i mean its not the best thing either, but we've all eaten worse.
the micronutrients are a different story, but thats what veggies are for amirite
stupid quesiton alert: so, fried rice is made from previously cooked rice?
It works best with leftover rice. Freshly cooked rice tends to need more oil to not stick and burn in the pan.
@@Brodmann312 that seems to be the general consensus. i watched a few other fried rice videos after posting this question & they all use previously cooked/ day old rice.
Spam is the best!!!
That censoring might as well not be there, but that was more funny than anything! Love me some SPAM fried rice! Kudos on an amazing recipe!
I bought spam today to try it for the first time in my life just because of this video.
RIP movable countertop 😔
I swear if the secret ingredient is rice, I'm going to scream.
I can’t believe I didn’t think of this
I never use spam, BUT try red quinoa instead of rice, 🧨🧨🧨
Alright boys, bust out those thermoses
Can i do this recipe with chicken instead of SPAM ?
Hafa adai, would love to see more CHamoru foods on the channel. Great video.
Uh oh, where did the no fun cap go??
how are you sharpening your knives ?
I’ve got one of those pull through knife sharpener and a honing rod
man… you do the most.., I am not a big spam guy.., but I may have to mess with that.
keep it going
In the process of making your cheeseburger mac for the 1000th time 🤣 I'll try this one next!
Oh nice. I was wondering what to eat tomorrow. This sounds like a good idea.
Lmao great video, one of your funnier ones imo, great job!
I hate rice for I love it so much yet it's very calorie dense. Nice recipes!
Don't leave your cam too long in the fridge, might damage the batteries :P
Does cooking spam smell weird? I've literally never used it but love the idea of it in rice - but my apartment hates smelly cooked food.
Its food... let em complain
Love it. I might be a day or out from making this. Spam in the cupboard.
Kimchi spam fried rice is my go to hangover cure
I love spam fried rice. I use corned beef sometimes too and add peas and corn for extra veg and colour.
This is actually brilliant.
Spam fried rice is one of my favorites and the easiest to make! I also like dumpling fried rice. :D
