@Anime fan Did you know 3 biggest races in Malaysia are Bumiputera (also called Malay) , Chinese and Indian? Furthermore, Nigel himself stated in some of his videos that he is indeed a Malaysian. Once you get the Nationality, you’re already part of the Malaysian no matter the races
I had the exact same "what?" reaction at the exact same time.. so Triple for me :D also, putting the pan directly under the faucet is like.. wtf. If you are gonna put water in, put it in a cup first so you can control where it gets in, and don't remove the pan from the fire .. gee
u know, when he started to bring his pan to the sink, my eyes almost popped out, then he reached for the valve, and my jaw dropped.. It's so disgusting, that would never, EVER, in any of my lifetime, cooking a DRY meal by drenching it in water.
@@beautifulplaces2703 no thanks. Our fried rice also does not usually contain chilli jam, and I personally have no vested interest in eating the weird stuff he made. Lets just call it "Jamie Oliver Egg fried rice."
@@rebeccabriggs9452Nah, it should be called Mr PASOW’s egg fried rice or Mr Chilli Jam’s egg fried rice but the most simple is Jamie Olive oil’s egg fried rice
given that he used BOUGHT cooked rice, you'd think that that rice would have been properly cooked at least. (not that I am judging, I started to learn how to cook rice in germany where they had the" fork test" :O and then moved onto "Bagged" rice portions that were cooked with that bag.. but then I also am NOT a cook and while I am still struggling to get it right every time, I have grown "up")
@@galeglider 😂😂 you can tell the reaction was legit because he wasn't able to stop saying that.. it was the first thing that came in my mind when i saw it
As a Singaporean Chinese (right next to Malaysia) I can vouch that cooking with a wok tastes very very different from cooking with a frying pan. It is really the "Wok Hey" that makes a huge difference. And such a flavour cannot be achieved with a frying pan. So in Singapore and Malaysia, you will find many Asian people cooking Asian cuisine using a wok.
As one of my cooking teachers liked to say, "We're supposed to stir-FRY, not stir-STEAM." On the other hand, I did know this graduate student from Manchuria who happily used standard frying pans and even a cast-iron skillet because that was what his host family had in their kitchen.
I mostly use a Wadjang (Indonesia) but also Woks and the difference between the two flavour wise is negligible but if you use a frying pan for the same dish it will tast different (less tasty).
Speaking personally, the gas pressure in the UK makes it difficult to get the right temperature in a wok. It's the same with Indian food. Outside a restaurant, getting the wok up to temperature - and keeping it there when you add stuff - is difficult.
Jamie Oliver: *putting water on the fried rice Yuya-san: WHAT? Uncle Roger: WHAT?? Asian people: WHAT??? Mother Earth: WHAT??? Solar system: WHAT??? The whole universe: WHAT????
The sad thing is, he used to be REALLY good. I have some of his early cook books and they are amazing. I mean, the guy studied under Ramsay ffs, he knows his stuff. But a couple of years ago, he just went batshit and it's been a downward spiral ever since.
I went to an American College and one of my roommates tried to cook rice in a microwave IN A GODDAMN MICROWAVE. The same hour I called my mom and told her what happened, she talked to my roommate, we bought a rice cooker in discount of course . Since then he improve, thought him the Asian way to cook rice, my parents owns a restaurant, and whenever my parents visit me they always joke about teaching my roommates to cook rice.
@@TheFLAMEXDwe don't have the time to change temperature, we're too busy for that. With rice cooker, all we have to do is put rice and water in then let it do it's job for 20 minutes.
I understand jam to be crushed, smashed fruit with added sugar. Chili jam fits that description, perhaps? I'd only use whole chili, chili powder and/or chili flakes.
"In this world there are so many unbelievable recipes" is Japanese for "I can't believe that a so-called professional chef can fuck up egg fried rice so badly"
@@Guirko not quite xenophobic, but more like "i don't like outsider because they're rude". I mean, with shit like jake paul and many clout chasers, I'm shocked they can stay calm and respectful to other foreigner.
Just saw another chef video reacting to this video and he said the reason he might have added the water is due to the Chilli jam. As it has so much sugar in it it started to caramelize while it was cooking and started to burn, so he had to add the water to stop that.
As a MidWestern chef, I'm so confused on Jamie Oliver's choices. Never have I ever put water in Fried Rice, or chunky tofu, or have I used so much olive oil. Olive oil is so strong, you'd only really use it with like a seared steak or some mushrooms maybe. He needs some serious work if he's gonna ever try to make some southern creole fried rice, which is a whole different issue.
The only times you use water while making fried rice: 1. When you’re washing the rice 2. When you’re cooking the rice 3. When you wash your vegetables 4. When you wash your dishes - A disappointed Indian girl
I was absolutely waiting for the tofu moment. Both of you saying “What?!” to the wetting the rice again, this was a great response video. I love Uncle Roger’s videos, but I also love it when a native chef can comment on what makes it specific to that country. Thanks for this.
Yes, chili jam is like strawberry jam. Making jams and jellies is a way of preserving fruits and some vegetables past their growing season. Sugar is cooked with the produce, and poured into sterile jars, usually then covered with wax or sealed in a pressure cooker. It is a great way for keeping food for winter when you can’t eat it all in the season, no matter how many children you have. No, your English is just fine. It is not stir-fry when Jamie adds water. It’s steaming. Your egg fried rice looks delicious!
So, me, as a German, just watched a Japanese chef, reacting to a Malaysian Character played by an Malaysian-British comedian who watched a British chef cooking Asian food 😂 And I enjoyed it very much, good video!
German food because they know that there are three ingredients to make food amazing: meat, salt, and beer. The meat can be stuffed into casings for sausage or deep fried to make wienerschnitzel. I used to live in Bitburg. Most important time of my life. P.S. Why do Austrians call them frankfurters and Germans call them wieners?
Now, we just need to have a Chinese Wok manufacturer react to a Japanese chef react to a Malaysian character played by a Malaysian-British comedian react to a British chef.
Here in Jamie Oliver's home country, he is not regarded as a particularly good chef by many people. His restaurants are known for presenting poor quality food. He sold his soul to a supermarket chain to sell their low quality tinned salmon after publicly shaming people who use tinned salmon... Frankly Jamie Oliver is a national embarrassment.
Damion Lee Jamie Oliver is not a great chef, no Michelin stars, I don’t believe he was ever even head chef of anywhere. However he has kind of redefined himself in something like the role Marco Pierre White has, that of helping people who don’t like cooking and would otherwise order takeaways and buy readymeals to cook. He gets that most people don’t have time nor effort to source authentic ingredients and gives them easy, healthy alternatives. Also he was the only one to ever take a stand over the awful, processed food our school kids get given every day. I’m a cook and work with cooks who love to disparage Jamie Oliver as a terrible chef and frankly, he is. But instead of focusing on fine dining he actually thinks about what ordinary people eat everyday and for me that makes him kind of inspirational
Damion, I'm very interested in your statements RE Jamie. I knew he wasn't a high level chef. I did not know he did the things you claim in the UK. As for over here in the States, I saw him go through the re-inventing process that @a Google User writes. Having put myself through college doing cooking, I have a huge respect for restaurant level professional cooking. I saw Jaime on a tour going through American towns and getting people to talk about the fried food, its healthyness (or lack of) and American obesity. I applaud and thank him for that. At the time I thought it was so campy its was pandering and not serious. But pandering or not, it did start discussion about how healthy food is in America. I'll go one more, he looked at the schools nutrition and found a lot of it to be lacking as well.
@@ceruleanfish6703 I remember that time very well. He had been a celebrity TV chef over here for some years, but had basically disappeared. He used the USA for publicity, seemingly as a tool to relaunch his career. Honestly your country was an easy target because of the things that were legal in the US but banned in Europe. He got the same discussions going on in this country using his "discoveries" in the US. Unfortunately he made seemingly no attempt to distinguish what was going on in the different countries, it appeared at times he was even encouraging the misinformation. But then, a lot of what he "discovered" in the US was misinformation. For example, the now infamous "Pink Slime". Not used over here, but he had a huge portion of our population believing it was in our food. (McDonalds in the UK had very simple, good quality beef mince from British and Irish farms, and none of the weirdness of the US ingredients list, but Jamie had masses convinced the use of Pink Slime was a real thing in the UK). His information on it in the US was off, and he was making a lot of stuff up. He did start a discussion over school food, again using the information he had from the US to argue that our schools were serving up really unhealthy rubbish. There were some schools that were not serving up good food, and this has led to the worst schools in the country having better food. BUT, many schools now having much lower quality, nutritionally worse food being dished up. His actions led to many schools feeling they had to switch over to outside providers which are private companies cooking on very strict budgets with far higher overheads. Many schools went from good quality, freshly prepared and cooked onsite meals, to cheap mass produced ready meals. It led to schools depriving children of food packed by parents because some staff member deemed the child's packed lunch to be "Too unhealthy". (I had a massive row with my son's school board over this as a governor, when they wanted to start searching children's packed lunches and confiscating food.) He made a real mess of things over here. Then there was his "campaign against obesity", followed by him piling on many extra pounds in his thirties. The guy is a hypocrite and a joke. He may have started discussions that improved things in the US, but he used that to make himself look relevant in the UK and has caused widespread damage. Please, take him, you're welcome to him.
@@damionlee7658 Appreciate your time and the straight answer. Didn't know he ran with the Pink Slime too, ouch. Yes, that was a straight up hoax. Although the quality and sizing of the meat in fast food is sub par here for quite a few eateries. I've actually seen a boon in "higher quality" burger shops with claims of higher grade beef and ingredients. These shops come with higher prices sadly and have driven the cost of the poor Big Mac sky high, about $4.55 pounds royal. Oh, and its still just a Big Mac, no portion or quality change. You're still paying about $15 pounds for a high quality burger. I had hoped the food quality discussion had helped in the US. Did not know it effected the UK as well, very sorry about that. We did have a few more strict guidelines here. But with the diversity in school districts there is quite a diversity in funding here for kids, sadly. It's highly political and tied locally to the money the district has. That still doesn't stop others from diverting money to other areas away from the kids. However, we always packed our kid lunch. The school lunch for what you got still was literally french fries or pizza or hot dogs, really low level food with no nutrition. I truly am sorry things went sour with the 3rd party people getting involved in the UK. Now, I'm curious if that happened domestically in the more affluent state systems. I won't point fingers at yours, but it sounds like what the highly political school boards would do over here. Move the issue to someone else keep blame of oneself, however with funding so low I don't know if they would be able to do it, hence the pizza I saw being served still. Don't think we'd take him. From the digging I've done, I'm ready to buy a couple acres locally and go off grid and grow my own food. Bests~
@@ceruleanfish6703 my wife and I hope to one day have the space and good health to provide the majority of our own food. We can live in hope. The school issue here was one of those things where things needed to change in some places. Burgers, pizza, shaped reformed meat products, fries were the daily for some schools, particularly in lower income areas. Parents didn't have the ability to make change, and for their children, what came out of Jamie Oliver's bid for attention was definitely a step in the right direction. Unfortunately it was the same double edge sword that the introduction of the minimum wage was (the UK introduced a minimum wage in the 90s, and for the low paying jobs, child care, cleaning etc, it really helped. Unfortunately it caused a huge amount of hardship as large numbers of people, working jobs in factories particularly, but also retail and farming, suddenly saw their income drop substantially. To this day, most factory workers earn significantly less money than those same jobs did before the minimum wage; even if you don't take into account inflation. That is to say, much of the factory work in the 90s was paying £14 - £18 per hour, (about £30 - £40 adjusted for inflation), but today the average factory wage is only £8.39!) Sorry, real tangent, but it helps to describe the similar effect which occurred with school meals. So for instance there were schools at the time who would cook onsite, fresh fish, whole cuts of meat, rice and potato dishes with fresh vegetables. But now just reheat trays of food, which is quite often burgers, pizza, fries etc. Basically when the government introduce a minimum expectation for meals, many schools with lower quality meals used private companies to provide that minimum quality. Meanwhile many schools that far exceeded those standards switch to the same companies and their food service dropped down to the minimum requirement. Truthfully, I despair for both our nations. There is so much division and pain, and so much hidden hardship. But, things are generally better than they were 100 years ago, and hopefully they will be better 100 years from now. At least we are making progress, if we look at the big picture. Best wishes to you and yours also. (Mobile phone, so hopefully I spotted and corrected the spelling and grammar errors before posting this.)
It’s so cute to see all of these “prominent” people being completely unknown by others sometimes. 😂🤣 A lot of people forget that we all live in our own cultural bubble, that is dangerous because it leads to fear+hate against others. Always nice to see another’s cultural perspective either through sarcasm or seriousness. 👍🏻💕
Jamie Oliver's fried rice video is actually *more* confusing if you understand Western cooking styles, because he's not following those rules, either! I don't think anybody in the world knows why he added chili jam (???) or extra water. Olive oil is often the completely wrong fat to use in a huge number of Western dishes because of its low smoke point and very specific flavor, if you cooked fish and chips or chicken fried steak in olive oil it would be seen as *crazy* too. And adding green onions late in the cooking process or as a garnish is almost universal, I googled a random Cajun "dirty rice" recipe and it said "add green onions as garnish" at the end. He's not even copying how to make a European rice dish like pilaf or risotto and changing the ingredients, it's just completely random.
Exactly. He did multiple things I've been explicitly taught not to do in western cooking, or have never heard of anyone doing, and It's like he's somehow not familiar with the cooking properties of olive oil and scallions. Which is insane.
@@sock2828 Chances are that he dones't really know how to cook. Asian food or western food. He's like a pumped celebrity, a marketing result with nothing real.
"Random" is a great adjective for Jamie Oliver's fried rice. In the world of food, his recipe is like a car knocking over food stands as it drives down the sidewalk. Women and children are screaming, men are shouting, "What are you doing?!" and the result is a huge, chaotic mess.
@SunsetLucy Olive Oil's smoke/burn point is dependent on how "virgin" it is, an extra virgin olive oil is a lower smoke point oil meant for garnishing, dressing, and dipping. Same thing for sesame oil, there is dressing oils and frying oils.
There is a recipe in levantine arab countries called mujaddara where we fry the raw rice in oil/butter/ghee and then add lentilwater to let it cook. You need to get the amount of water right so it does not get soggy but the fat makes the rice quite nice and it is similar to fried rice. But that is very far removed from whatever that is what Oliver cooked up.
Generally speaking Uncle Roger gets many things wrong in his videos. The technique of frying raw rice also exists in Turkey. In Iran we use colander to make rice. These are actually more complicated and more difficult to master than the common way of boiling rice. But I'm not defending the brits, they fucked up for real 😂
Yuya : It's already disgusting Uncle Roger : "If you say healthy, it's means disgusting" *Perfect Timing lol* Edit : wow after 4 months, i didn't realise this comment got 1.1k likes, thank you everyone
I love the various forms of Asian cuisine, specifically Japanese and Korean (thank you US army), but I still prefer it to be true to their origins. The food is just do damn good that you don't need to add these modern western spins to them. Let them stand on their own, they absolutely can and they are delicious, beyond compare.
The idea of preparing Japanese cuisine intrigues me and seems like an exciting venture to undertake someday. I must admit, though, I'm not the most skilled when it comes to cooking. While I am capable of preparing basic dishes, the intricacy of dishes like Onigiri poses a challenge. I remember my attempt at making Onigiri, which unfortunately didn't turn out as expected. However, it's important to remember that it was my first attempt. Failure is a stepping stone to improvement, and one can't expect to get everything right on the first try. Even the best chefs had to start somewhere, right? I remain optimistic and excited about the possibility of enhancing my culinary skills, especially in the realm of Japanese cooking. Who knows, maybe with practice and patience, I might just master the art of Onigiri! ^_^
Packet rice is Pre-cooked then packaged at a factory, and sold at a grocery store. These kinds of packaged foods may often have a lot of preservatives in them. They're usually used as a really quick and easy meal for people who don't have time to actually cook their own food, but Jamie Oliver is a professional chef on TV to showcase his cooking skill and he opted for packet rice instead of cooking his own.
well tbf this is for an english audience to reproduce at home. you have to meet them halfway. putting two different ingredients in a pan is already "haute cuisine" for them. That doesn't explain the chili jam; the silk tofu (which is better suited for dessert); and more importantly the lack of soy sauce and sesame oil.
Rice is so simple to cook and honestly can be cooked within 5 to 20 minutes depending upon your style like pressure cooker, Pot or rice cooker . Why would anyone buy Packaged Cooked Rice 🤦😲
I dont know if anyone explained it, but the "packet rice" Jamie was using is a common pre-cooked rice often portioned out as "single serve" rice. Its mainly used by people who don't know how to cook rice and honestly has the worst texture. Its somehow both very dry and mushy at the same time.
Poor Jamie Oliver... He didn't know that when he woke up that morning to film an egg fried rice video that he'd get called out for being the worst at it 😂
I want to see a cook-off between Ramsay and Oliver, they''ll have to make Pasta Carbonara, and Egg Fried Rice, and serve it in a blind test in a Hells Kitchen episode with some strict judges. Both would surely fail and have to take a new course at Cordon Bleu, or something.
@@Ulvetann "Cook off" "Carbonara" I'm having Bon Appetit flashbacks. They're the nice kind of flashbacks though. RIP Bon Appetit. (I know they're still kicking but it's just not the same anymore)
@@thedolphin602 Yeah, Ramsay made Indonesian fried rice which may be bit different than let’s say Vietnamese but I’ve been watching it with my wife which is Indonesian (and very good cook) and mostly she agreed and approved everything. I’m a chef and as much as I know Indonesian cuisine and fried rice was quite proper one 😉 Defo point for Ramsay. Carbonara wasn’t great at all lol
My favourite parts of these videos are when Roger and Yuya both say "What?!" Or "Disgusting!" at the same time or one after the other. Their minds are on the same wavelength.
I'm a former cook at a Thai restsurant. When I saw him put water into his fried rice, I literally stood out of my seat in astonishment and disgust. I don't know about his British cuisine, but I know for a fact I will NEVER eat any Asian food he makes.
as an asian, there is something very enjoyable about watching two other asians disgusted over jamie's fried rice...... like it reassures me that i'm not crazy for being completely and utterly disgusted over the entire cooking process
I'm not Asian, but I spent a lot of time eating homemade, authentic Chinese food (cooked by my fiancee's grandmother). I was both shocked and appalled while watching Jamie's video.
@@sAkUrA6309 Do not envy me. Those days are only a memory, now. My fiancee chose to let me go when she went off to a different graduate school. It was her loss in the end, and that is sad, but people make their own choices in life.
For Japanese viewer context, this is similar to buying the microwave rice in Lawson/7-11 to do fried rice at home. When I visited Hokkaido, I realized the Japanese standard for microwave rice is really high. So maybe they might not see what's wrong with Jamie's choice. The Japanese stores really solved the formula to make it as close as possible. The instant rice outside or Taiwan or Japan is really a last choice for most people. You usually get some chunks which are hard because the heat distribution is not good and its overheated.
Thank you for reading all the comments. I love your videos and they are very relaxing to watch when i am doing university work. So informative and Uncle Roger is very funny too, great combination! All the best (: ありがとう
I love how polite he is. “Thank you Jamie Oliver, I really learned a lesson today”. He did that instead of just absolutely tearing into the guy. So respectful
@@snacknnap Idk, if you search up his name online, it just says Malysia. So he might come from Malaysia but idk about ethnicity-wise. Edit: Yeah his family is Malaysian Chinese from Hokkien
I am not a chef, just a mom, from Indonesia, but will not cook like that for my family. I started following Jamie Oliver, then i found out that the recipes are a “too much to digest”, and i started checking whether anyone scream the same like my brain. Then i met “uncle roger” channel and your channel. Thank you both of you. At least i know, i am not the one who is wrong.
After watching your Uncle Roger /Jamie Oliver Egg Fried Rice reaction video, I subscribed. Thank you for showing us how your food products are packaged and how you store them. I also appreciated your translation of Japanese words and concepts😀--very helpful.
As a British person i can say Jamie is more a embarrassment than a "chef" he was popular some 15-20 years ago for trying to force "healthy living" and children (which he was found numerous times to never follow himself) and his restaurant chains are closing everywhere. He maybe was a chef but his time has passed and not in a good way, please don't judge all brits on him, some of us know how to enjoy and appreciate other cultures, Japanese is one of my favourite food types and i hate guys like Jamie who embarrass the nation like this.
In China everybody talks about how bad British foods are, but after visiting UK I found British foods quite decent, amazing cakes especially. I nearly decided to eat at Jamie‘s restaurant once but it scored so low on tripadvisor so I chose something else instead
@@roachzheng2652 good choice to make there, his restaurants are really expensive and the food is so small in portion that even children would leave hungry on a adults meal. Britain doesn't have a amazing pallet of cuisine as we just eat other culture foods (which i guess works) but glad you enjoyed the cakes, one thing we do enjoy is a good cake!
I know that not all British people are shameful like Jamie Oliver. Most of them are good people with a good taste about food. I also like British sweets, it's one of the most delicious sweets I've ever tasted. But Jamie Oliver is just a disappointment...... Yare yare daze......
I just want some people to stop “splashing water” on cooked rice, “draining cooked rice in a colander” and “running water through cooked rice”. Please stop. :(
@@gonzarellious6102 what's wrong with drinking water and draining is important especially for a diabetic person...and one more advantage is that even after eating lot of rice it doesn't make you feel sleepy and...that girl didn't washed that rice plus drained cooked rice through tap water is wrong my grandma says never used tap water instead use drinking water which is mixture of cold and luke. My main thing if you didn't drain at all it makes rice overly cooked n wet while eating..
10:01. (Brit in the States). Another option at my local Asian supermarket, is fresh tofu blocks in containers, that you can pick out and put in a plastic bag.
8:17 When Jamie put water in the rice while cooking Uncle Roger : What?! Yuya Makky : What? Me : What * at the same times * It's proof that we all Asia are confuse why he doing this stupid act
@@GarethLategan COLD water to HOT pan?! You stopped that cooking process while you put that fu*king water in it. NEVER EVER put COLD water in the middle of cooking! NEVER! You gonna kill that food! Using broth is more better, because it has a flavour, but you must know, WHEN put broth in :))
Hi, Mr. Yuya! This whole topic of when to throw in the spring onions into the pan really depends on the country. For example, Korean people often sizzle spring onion with hot oil in the beginning of the cooking process in order to give the oil the taste and aroma (they call this process "making spring onion oil"). Ofcourse, don't burn the spring onions ;) I personally often prepare two batches of spring onions when I cook - one batch for the oil and one batch for the final garnish. As Uncle Roger says in later videos about Korean food, when in doubt, just throw more spring onions in there :P I really like your contents! I hope to see more. Greetings from Korea/Germany
I'm brand new to this channel. I LOVE your style, you seem to be very genuine, and your video is also very gentle on the ears and eyes. I really look forward to your content, I'm going to check more now! God bless, from the West Coast in America
I ran a restaurant in the Phillippines and we were known for great food. I test cooked 20 of Oliver's recipes and 20 of Gordon Ramseys... ALL Olivers tasted crap!! and all Gordons tasted very nice. Gordon's recipes were also MUCH easier and fewer ingredients.
@@woodysmum4471 Looking at Jamie's fried rice, I'd expect Gordon to be rolling in his grave. …the one that he dug out personally just to roll in after looking at Jamie's video.
I have zero respect for Oliver. He's a hack at best who's ego is much bigger than it should ever be. Gordon Ramsay keeps his ego somewhat in check, even knowing that HE is a great chef. His receipes are usually straightforward and simple to make and always delicious. His shows are fun and engaging. Oliver is boring and always condescending to the viewer.
My parents noticed I had whitewashed tastes despite hailing from a Filipino family. Eventually, when I grew up, I specialized in Western cooking as opposed to every other son who learned our old ways. This adds a double layer of pain watching this video, because _I see where Jamie is coming from._ Olive Oil and dumping onions in first are _western_ sensibilities that make perfect sense if you're making a Pasta. Unfortunately, that also means I see clear as day Jamie made no real effort to understand Asian food before emulating it - and worse, being one of the Western world's most well-known people trying to teach it.
This makes sense to me, I don't do Asian cooking beyond the occasional stir fry (and I'm not exactly following a recipe so much as whatever flavours I like!) and I'll default to olive oil for basically everything I cook, because to me it's what oil should taste like. But then I'm not a professional chef trying to show people how this is actually done! If he prefaced his videos on these by explaining that they're his personal ways of doing them, I could respect that more, though it seems as if his way is making it actively worse. Sometimes chefs saying "X meal must always be cooked this way because THATS HOW ITS DONE" is just tradition (or less charitably, regional snobbery) and you can make extremely tasty food by ignoring them. Other times you should sit down and shut up, because there's very often a reason why it's traditionally done that way and it may be vitally important. Learn it, understand it, and THEN decide if you want to change it.
Okay Jamie Oliver is not to be trusted, he puts yoghurt in sandwiches. That says it all. Plus if you're a real brit you hate him for ruining the meal deal
@Dalton The Cooler sandwich or pasta pot, snack (crisps, chocolate bar some small Savoury option like chicken dippers) and a drink for 3 pound some places 3.50
Packet rice is basically pre-cooked rice. You just have to reheated it for a few minutes before eating. The show's main target audience are British people who dont usually cook Asian cuisine. So many wouldnt eat rice regularly or have a rice cooker. So, I think the show tried to simply things and use packet rice.
I don't know how youtube algorithm work but it shows me this adorable Yuya-san, a Japanese reacted to a Malaysia-British uncle roasting this British celebrity chef. What a nice view to start the day, roasting Jamie together.
Yes, Jamie Oliver is very famous as a TV chef in the UK. He's especially keen on helping ordinary people to cook more at home by making quick recipes, by presenting cooking awareness campaigns, and doing things like trying to improve the quality of food served in schools and hospitals. All of that, he makes TV series on, which go onto the main terrestrial TV channels. He got popular on TV while most people still only had 5 terrestrial TV channels in the UK, but he's doing well via CZcams as well.
This was really good. I hope Uncle Roger reaches out to you and bestows an official "Uncle" title to you - you deserve it. And I can't wait to visit your amazing country!
I just found your channel, you seem to be a nice person, keep your good work ! An idea could be that you make food reviews of the area where you live? or the area where you are from? Be safe and greetings from Chile.

It is because kids don't compute what the crap is in the chicken nuggets or other foods, all they know is if they like the taste, they really don't care LOL.
I like the Japanese Chef is liking every comment. Even better is that he seems to be a caring and humble person and I liked him showing us his kitchen/spices.
Lemmie guess you figured this all out in a 14 minute video, and went to go meet these people in person and got to know them on a personal level all in the span of 14 minutes?

It's always funny when a non-Asian wants to teach an Asian how to cook rice. I have Asian heritage and have cooked rice since about eight years old in a simple little pot which is my rice pot on a stove (though nowadays I use more a rice cooker). Anyway this non Asian friend she saw me preparing my rice and with horror said, "that's not how you cook rice!" So she took over; added about an extra litre of water, boiled it like pasta even running it through a colander with cold water after. While I find it funny now, it was the saddest plate of rice I ever ate 😂
@@alba__9853 Yeah. I'm German (not exactly a rice-eating culture, lol) and I nearly died, seeing that. It's like a DIY for _How To Make Your Food Sloppy And Disgusting._
The pack of rice is a pouch full of almost cooked rice that can be stored in the cupboard for a long time and only needs a couple of minutes in the microwave to be served hot and cooked through. You can also often add it straight to the wok for a few minutes to fry, like Jamie did.
I love your background music! Hearing people enjoy country (especially from the time i grew up) makes me excited! Im always reminded of when i was in 2nd grade and all the teachers taught us how to line dance so we could perform for our parents! 😊😊
i like how every other asian guy who reacts to uncle roger reacting to bad cooking is like 'ah yes i do agree with uncle roger on this one, not a very good choice" very politely and uncle roger is just like "HIYAAHHHH YOU FUCKED UP"
Tbh, I am Japanese. I don't have any confidences on any Chinese cuisines and methods but as far as I know and from My past chef experiences in restaurants I could say I'm 110% can agree with Uncle Roger side. It seems Egg Fried rice 🍚 is Uncle Riger's unbreakable territory and indestructible castle and Jamie stepped into fields of land mines blowing himself up repeatedly . LMAO 😂😭👍
Jamie Oliver is a well known British chef with several published books and tv shows, a lot of them popular where I live (Portugal). Personally I don't enjoy his recipes and his overall demeanor. The videos he publishes don't help him either, since I've notice that a lot of times he uses it to take little jabs at Uncle Gordon, who makes much better easily to follow recipes and is a lot more popular and talented. Oh, they both hate each other too, making the fact that Uncle Roger loved Uncle Gordon's dish and hated Jamie's 10x funnier. The rice from the bag is already cooked for those ~~lazy~~ who don't have time to cook rice.
Yeah, and Jamie Oliver likes to "try cooking healthy", which makes it strange when he suggests an addition to a standard recipe. That's why the tofu is in there. He probably knows it's not there to improve the dish for taste or texture, what he wants is to "make it healthy".
@@afelias if he wants to make it healthy he should have left out all that extra olive oil and the chillijam. also the pre-cooked rice is full of artificial conservatives which makes the whole thing even worse. jamie is always preaching but never practicing what he preaches. in short hes a hypocrite.
I like Gordon Ramsay. I dislike Jamie Oliver for making jabs at him. plus Jamie's food is boringly healthy and basic looking, as well as not as nice looking. Gordon's food is more enriching and tasty and the presentation is also nicer.
I use a scope to pour grains into a rice cooker. Soak in water for a while and by the time the dinner is ready the rice has been done for a bit. Why do you need precooked rice? It doesn't take four hours to cook rice. Put rice in water before you go to work. Get your kids to drain the water and measure water.
New suscriber. Found your reaction to the history of Japan video. I am greatly interested in Japanese culture and learning Japanese currently. In each of your videos, I have learned something that I was unaware of about Japan or its culture, despite being interested in Japan since my early teens.
You know something is wrong when two Asian dudes says “what?” in the same time.
300 Thousand actually
All asian said 'what' at the same time...AHAHAAHAHA
true
As a latinoamerican guy, I screamed "WHAT?!" at the same time as well.
As a white chick I yelled “WHAT!?” in horror at the same time too.

the syncronization when both Uncle Roger and Yuya saw Jamie putting water after cooking made me laugh
You know he's a true Asian chef when he has never heard of instant rice 😂
me too!!! it was the best part of the video!!!!
I had the exact same "what?" reaction at the exact same time.. so Triple for me :D
also, putting the pan directly under the faucet is like.. wtf.
If you are gonna put water in, put it in a cup first so you can control where it gets in, and don't remove the pan from the fire .. gee
@@jawstrock2215same! I've seen this video before, but it's been long enough that I forgot Jamie did this, and I said "What?!" at the same time 😂

He should have called it British egg fried rice.

Cause Asian ain't healthy . Oil oil oil
Jamie don't know how to cook. Shame
Oh it's "healthy" alright, but that's because after two bites you start thinking "You know, I'm not that hungry"

Puerto Rican here, that's also where I lost it LMAO
I say that too the first I saw that part 😭
given that he used BOUGHT cooked rice, you'd think that that rice would have been properly cooked at least. (not that I am judging, I started to learn how to cook rice in germany where they had the" fork test" :O and then moved onto "Bagged" rice portions that were cooked with that bag.. but then I also am NOT a cook and while I am still struggling to get it right every time, I have grown "up")
@@sircat3594 Food knows no color or nationality. Even the most green prep cook knows not to do that.
Ngl i almost threw up when he added water to the fried rice
My gosh the way he roasts Jamie was so polite: "This world is really large, there are so many *unbelieveable recipes,* thank you Jamie Oliver ..."
yeah, the only crude word he said in the entire video is "disgusting" lol
@@galeglider 😂😂 you can tell the reaction was legit because he wasn't able to stop saying that.. it was the first thing that came in my mind when i saw it
Yes, so polite about it!
The Japanese really are the masters of the backhanded compliment.
As a Singaporean Chinese (right next to Malaysia) I can vouch that cooking with a wok tastes very very different from cooking with a frying pan. It is really the "Wok Hey" that makes a huge difference. And such a flavour cannot be achieved with a frying pan. So in Singapore and Malaysia, you will find many Asian people cooking Asian cuisine using a wok.
As one of my cooking teachers liked to say, "We're supposed to stir-FRY, not stir-STEAM." On the other hand, I did know this graduate student from Manchuria who happily used standard frying pans and even a cast-iron skillet because that was what his host family had in their kitchen.
I mostly use a Wadjang (Indonesia) but also Woks and the difference between the two flavour wise is negligible but if you use a frying pan for the same dish it will tast different (less tasty).
Think that the important of heat control , this is technique ,and secret for why there is same recipe but cooked by different person
Lee kuan yew is dead and SG is better off for it...that is all. Have a nice day
Speaking personally, the gas pressure in the UK makes it difficult to get the right temperature in a wok. It's the same with Indian food.
Outside a restaurant, getting the wok up to temperature - and keeping it there when you add stuff - is difficult.

“Chef” is a strong word to describe Jamie Oliver
The sad thing is, he used to be REALLY good. I have some of his early cook books and they are amazing. I mean, the guy studied under Ramsay ffs, he knows his stuff. But a couple of years ago, he just went batshit and it's been a downward spiral ever since.
I went to an American College and one of my roommates tried to cook rice in a microwave IN A GODDAMN MICROWAVE. The same hour I called my mom and told her what happened, she talked to my roommate, we bought a rice cooker in discount of course . Since then he improve, thought him the Asian way to cook rice, my parents owns a restaurant, and whenever my parents visit me they always joke about teaching my roommates to cook rice.
Rice cookers are unnecessary. You can cook rice in a saucepan just fine.
@@TheFLAMEXDgreat bait
@@TheFLAMEXDwe don't have the time to change temperature, we're too busy for that. With rice cooker, all we have to do is put rice and water in then let it do it's job for 20 minutes.
When you’re British and have no idea what the hell chilli jam is either
Exactly;
Probably something you get at a yuppie/hipster store like Trader Joe's or Whole Foods. Or maybe it's actually chutney.
it's an exaggeration of something you should not use
😂😂😂😂
I understand jam to be crushed, smashed fruit with added sugar.
Chili jam fits that description, perhaps?
I'd only use whole chili, chili powder and/or chili flakes.
"In this world there are so many unbelievable recipes" is Japanese for "I can't believe that a so-called professional chef can fuck up egg fried rice so badly"
Japanese people will not roast you but you'll see the disappointment in their eyes.
@@sandysezy5312 they sure are really respectful. i wish i become like that

@@Guirko not quite xenophobic, but more like "i don't like outsider because they're rude". I mean, with shit like jake paul and many clout chasers, I'm shocked they can stay calm and respectful to other foreigner.
Just saw another chef video reacting to this video and he said the reason he might have added the water is due to the Chilli jam. As it has so much sugar in it it started to caramelize while it was cooking and started to burn, so he had to add the water to stop that.
LoL, it's like adding too much flour, so adding more water thing.
add water to create wet fried rice
I wonder if it's also because he used packet rice, which lacks moisture? But he did seem to like the end result being very shiny and wet too.
Shouldn't have put chilli jam in the first place.
Yes. He screwed up to fix a previous screw up. He added water to stop the jam from burning which shouldn't have been in there in the 1st place.
As a MidWestern chef, I'm so confused on Jamie Oliver's choices. Never have I ever put water in Fried Rice, or chunky tofu, or have I used so much olive oil. Olive oil is so strong, you'd only really use it with like a seared steak or some mushrooms maybe. He needs some serious work if he's gonna ever try to make some southern creole fried rice, which is a whole different issue.
The only times you use water while making fried rice:
1. When you’re washing the rice
2. When you’re cooking the rice
3. When you wash your vegetables
4. When you wash your dishes

Yes, chili jam is like strawberry jam. Making jams and jellies is a way of preserving fruits and some vegetables past their growing season. Sugar is cooked with the produce, and poured into sterile jars, usually then covered with wax or sealed in a pressure cooker. It is a great way for keeping food for winter when you can’t eat it all in the season, no matter how many children you have.
No, your English is just fine. It is not stir-fry when Jamie adds water. It’s steaming.
Your egg fried rice looks delicious!
So, me, as a German, just watched a Japanese chef, reacting to a Malaysian Character played by an Malaysian-British comedian who watched a British chef cooking Asian food 😂
And I enjoyed it very much, good video!
German food because they know that there are three ingredients to make food amazing: meat, salt, and beer. The meat can be stuffed into casings for sausage or deep fried to make wienerschnitzel. I used to live in Bitburg. Most important time of my life.

Why do Austrians call them frankfurters and Germans call them wieners?

Here in Jamie Oliver's home country, he is not regarded as a particularly good chef by many people. His restaurants are known for presenting poor quality food. He sold his soul to a supermarket chain to sell their low quality tinned salmon after publicly shaming people who use tinned salmon...
Frankly Jamie Oliver is a national embarrassment.
Damion Lee Jamie Oliver is not a great chef, no Michelin stars, I don’t believe he was ever even head chef of anywhere. However he has kind of redefined himself in something like the role Marco Pierre White has, that of helping people who don’t like cooking and would otherwise order takeaways and buy readymeals to cook. He gets that most people don’t have time nor effort to source authentic ingredients and gives them easy, healthy alternatives. Also he was the only one to ever take a stand over the awful, processed food our school kids get given every day. I’m a cook and work with cooks who love to disparage Jamie Oliver as a terrible chef and frankly, he is. But instead of focusing on fine dining he actually thinks about what ordinary people eat everyday and for me that makes him kind of inspirational
Damion, I'm very interested in your statements RE Jamie. I knew he wasn't a high level chef. I did not know he did the things you claim in the UK. As for over here in the States, I saw him go through the re-inventing process that @a Google User writes. Having put myself through college doing cooking, I have a huge respect for restaurant level professional cooking. I saw Jaime on a tour going through American towns and getting people to talk about the fried food, its healthyness (or lack of) and American obesity. I applaud and thank him for that. At the time I thought it was so campy its was pandering and not serious. But pandering or not, it did start discussion about how healthy food is in America. I'll go one more, he looked at the schools nutrition and found a lot of it to be lacking as well.
@@ceruleanfish6703 I remember that time very well. He had been a celebrity TV chef over here for some years, but had basically disappeared. He used the USA for publicity, seemingly as a tool to relaunch his career. Honestly your country was an easy target because of the things that were legal in the US but banned in Europe.
He got the same discussions going on in this country using his "discoveries" in the US. Unfortunately he made seemingly no attempt to distinguish what was going on in the different countries, it appeared at times he was even encouraging the misinformation. But then, a lot of what he "discovered" in the US was misinformation. For example, the now infamous "Pink Slime". Not used over here, but he had a huge portion of our population believing it was in our food. (McDonalds in the UK had very simple, good quality beef mince from British and Irish farms, and none of the weirdness of the US ingredients list, but Jamie had masses convinced the use of Pink Slime was a real thing in the UK). His information on it in the US was off, and he was making a lot of stuff up.
He did start a discussion over school food, again using the information he had from the US to argue that our schools were serving up really unhealthy rubbish. There were some schools that were not serving up good food, and this has led to the worst schools in the country having better food. BUT, many schools now having much lower quality, nutritionally worse food being dished up. His actions led to many schools feeling they had to switch over to outside providers which are private companies cooking on very strict budgets with far higher overheads. Many schools went from good quality, freshly prepared and cooked onsite meals, to cheap mass produced ready meals. It led to schools depriving children of food packed by parents because some staff member deemed the child's packed lunch to be "Too unhealthy". (I had a massive row with my son's school board over this as a governor, when they wanted to start searching children's packed lunches and confiscating food.)
He made a real mess of things over here.
Then there was his "campaign against obesity", followed by him piling on many extra pounds in his thirties.
The guy is a hypocrite and a joke. He may have started discussions that improved things in the US, but he used that to make himself look relevant in the UK and has caused widespread damage. Please, take him, you're welcome to him.
@@damionlee7658 Appreciate your time and the straight answer. Didn't know he ran with the Pink Slime too, ouch. Yes, that was a straight up hoax. Although the quality and sizing of the meat in fast food is sub par here for quite a few eateries. I've actually seen a boon in "higher quality" burger shops with claims of higher grade beef and ingredients. These shops come with higher prices sadly and have driven the cost of the poor Big Mac sky high, about $4.55 pounds royal. Oh, and its still just a Big Mac, no portion or quality change. You're still paying about $15 pounds for a high quality burger.
I had hoped the food quality discussion had helped in the US. Did not know it effected the UK as well, very sorry about that. We did have a few more strict guidelines here. But with the diversity in school districts there is quite a diversity in funding here for kids, sadly. It's highly political and tied locally to the money the district has. That still doesn't stop others from diverting money to other areas away from the kids. However, we always packed our kid lunch. The school lunch for what you got still was literally french fries or pizza or hot dogs, really low level food with no nutrition. I truly am sorry things went sour with the 3rd party people getting involved in the UK. Now, I'm curious if that happened domestically in the more affluent state systems. I won't point fingers at yours, but it sounds like what the highly political school boards would do over here. Move the issue to someone else keep blame of oneself, however with funding so low I don't know if they would be able to do it, hence the pizza I saw being served still.
Don't think we'd take him. From the digging I've done, I'm ready to buy a couple acres locally and go off grid and grow my own food. Bests~
@@ceruleanfish6703 my wife and I hope to one day have the space and good health to provide the majority of our own food. We can live in hope.
The school issue here was one of those things where things needed to change in some places. Burgers, pizza, shaped reformed meat products, fries were the daily for some schools, particularly in lower income areas. Parents didn't have the ability to make change, and for their children, what came out of Jamie Oliver's bid for attention was definitely a step in the right direction.
Unfortunately it was the same double edge sword that the introduction of the minimum wage was (the UK introduced a minimum wage in the 90s, and for the low paying jobs, child care, cleaning etc, it really helped. Unfortunately it caused a huge amount of hardship as large numbers of people, working jobs in factories particularly, but also retail and farming, suddenly saw their income drop substantially. To this day, most factory workers earn significantly less money than those same jobs did before the minimum wage; even if you don't take into account inflation. That is to say, much of the factory work in the 90s was paying £14 - £18 per hour, (about £30 - £40 adjusted for inflation), but today the average factory wage is only £8.39!)
Sorry, real tangent, but it helps to describe the similar effect which occurred with school meals. So for instance there were schools at the time who would cook onsite, fresh fish, whole cuts of meat, rice and potato dishes with fresh vegetables. But now just reheat trays of food, which is quite often burgers, pizza, fries etc.
Basically when the government introduce a minimum expectation for meals, many schools with lower quality meals used private companies to provide that minimum quality. Meanwhile many schools that far exceeded those standards switch to the same companies and their food service dropped down to the minimum requirement.
Truthfully, I despair for both our nations. There is so much division and pain, and so much hidden hardship. But, things are generally better than they were 100 years ago, and hopefully they will be better 100 years from now. At least we are making progress, if we look at the big picture.
Best wishes to you and yours also.

Jamie Oliver's fried rice video is actually *more* confusing if you understand Western cooking styles, because he's not following those rules, either! I don't think anybody in the world knows why he added chili jam (???) or extra water. Olive oil is often the completely wrong fat to use in a huge number of Western dishes because of its low smoke point and very specific flavor, if you cooked fish and chips or chicken fried steak in olive oil it would be seen as *crazy* too. And adding green onions late in the cooking process or as a garnish is almost universal, I googled a random Cajun "dirty rice" recipe and it said "add green onions as garnish" at the end. He's not even copying how to make a European rice dish like pilaf or risotto and changing the ingredients, it's just completely random.
Exactly. He did multiple things I've been explicitly taught not to do in western cooking, or have never heard of anyone doing, and It's like he's somehow not familiar with the cooking properties of olive oil and scallions. Which is insane.
@@sock2828 Chances are that he dones't really know how to cook. Asian food or western food. He's like a pumped celebrity, a marketing result with nothing real.
@@JohnDoe-qu2dr Pretty much. Over exposure like Rachel Ray who can't really cook either for lazy people.
"Random" is a great adjective for Jamie Oliver's fried rice. In the world of food, his recipe is like a car knocking over food stands as it drives down the sidewalk. Women and children are screaming, men are shouting, "What are you doing?!" and the result is a huge, chaotic mess.
@SunsetLucy Olive Oil's smoke/burn point is dependent on how "virgin" it is, an extra virgin olive oil is a lower smoke point oil meant for garnishing, dressing, and dipping. Same thing for sesame oil, there is dressing oils and frying oils.
That packet is “almost fully cooked” rice, that you cook in the microwave.
Every time I see someone using it, I shed a tear.
Especially when rice is an easy cook.
Wait, Is it really cooked in the microwave ? That sounds really weird 😂😂😂😂
@@minhphamhoaibao3822 yep, its ready in a minute and is a sad excuse for rice.
@@aquagirl1024 😂😂😂 definately
Jaime needs some rice cooker.😅
There is a recipe in levantine arab countries called mujaddara where we fry the raw rice in oil/butter/ghee and then add lentilwater to let it cook. You need to get the amount of water right so it does not get soggy but the fat makes the rice quite nice and it is similar to fried rice.
But that is very far removed from whatever that is what Oliver cooked up.
Generally speaking Uncle Roger gets many things wrong in his videos. The technique of frying raw rice also exists in Turkey. In Iran we use colander to make rice. These are actually more complicated and more difficult to master than the common way of boiling rice.
But I'm not defending the brits, they fucked up for real 😂
There's also kerak telor which is a glutinous rice like mochi, serundeng , egg , salt but cook it on the butt of the wok. That's truly a burnt rice

I love the various forms of Asian cuisine, specifically Japanese and Korean (thank you US army), but I still prefer it to be true to their origins. The food is just do damn good that you don't need to add these modern western spins to them. Let them stand on their own, they absolutely can and they are delicious, beyond compare.
The idea of preparing Japanese cuisine intrigues me and seems like an exciting venture to undertake someday. I must admit, though, I'm not the most skilled when it comes to cooking. While I am capable of preparing basic dishes, the intricacy of dishes like Onigiri poses a challenge. I remember my attempt at making Onigiri, which unfortunately didn't turn out as expected. However, it's important to remember that it was my first attempt. Failure is a stepping stone to improvement, and one can't expect to get everything right on the first try. Even the best chefs had to start somewhere, right? I remain optimistic and excited about the possibility of enhancing my culinary skills, especially in the realm of Japanese cooking. Who knows, maybe with practice and patience, I might just master the art of Onigiri! ^_^
Packet rice is Pre-cooked then packaged at a factory, and sold at a grocery store. These kinds of packaged foods may often have a lot of preservatives in them. They're usually used as a really quick and easy meal for people who don't have time to actually cook their own food, but Jamie Oliver is a professional chef on TV to showcase his cooking skill and he opted for packet rice instead of cooking his own.
in my country packet rice is just raw rice packaged in small portions lol
His cooking skill amounts to a person just past beginner tossing random shit into a pan and expecting it to be good.
@@brutus3631 We have that too, but it is called "instant" or "single serve." Packet rice or packaged rice is the pre-cooked warm and serve size.
well tbf this is for an english audience to reproduce at home. you have to meet them halfway. putting two different ingredients in a pan is already "haute cuisine" for them. That doesn't explain the chili jam; the silk tofu (which is better suited for dessert); and more importantly the lack of soy sauce and sesame oil.
Rice is so simple to cook and honestly can be cooked within 5 to 20 minutes depending upon your style like pressure cooker, Pot or rice cooker . Why would anyone buy Packaged Cooked Rice 🤦😲

Both would surely fail and have to take a new course at Cordon Bleu, or something.

@@thedolphin602 Yeah, Ramsay made Indonesian fried rice which may be bit different than let’s say Vietnamese but I’ve been watching it with my wife which is Indonesian (and very good cook) and mostly she agreed and approved everything. I’m a chef and as much as I know Indonesian cuisine and fried rice was quite proper one 😉 Defo point for Ramsay. Carbonara wasn’t great at all lol
My favourite parts of these videos are when Roger and Yuya both say "What?!" Or "Disgusting!" at the same time or one after the other. Their minds are on the same wavelength.
I'm a former cook at a Thai restsurant. When I saw him put water into his fried rice, I literally stood out of my seat in astonishment and disgust. I don't know about his British cuisine, but I know for a fact I will NEVER eat any Asian food he makes.
as an asian, there is something very enjoyable about watching two other asians disgusted over jamie's fried rice...... like it reassures me that i'm not crazy for being completely and utterly disgusted over the entire cooking process
I'm not Asian, but I spent a lot of time eating homemade, authentic Chinese food (cooked by my fiancee's grandmother). I was both shocked and appalled while watching Jamie's video.
@@khalaq2 "homemade, authentic Chinese food" your life is good mannn. I'm an Asian myself, but I envy you
@@sAkUrA6309 Do not envy me. Those days are only a memory, now. My fiancee chose to let me go when she went off to a different graduate school. It was her loss in the end, and that is sad, but people make their own choices in life.
"Packet rice" is - a purchased pack of already cooked rice. Vacuum packed. Maybe cooked 1-4 weeks before you buy it. Usually not pleasant texture.
It tastes funny too, not like rice but sort of plastic like.
Disgusting
@Mariah Lightfoot nah this is like fully pre cooked
@Mariah Lightfoot it is fully cooked and vacuum sealed. No water necessary just microwave. Not as good as regular rice
For Japanese viewer context, this is similar to buying the microwave rice in Lawson/7-11 to do fried rice at home.
When I visited Hokkaido, I realized the Japanese standard for microwave rice is really high. So maybe they might not see what's wrong with Jamie's choice. The Japanese stores really solved the formula to make it as close as possible.
The instant rice outside or Taiwan or Japan is really a last choice for most people. You usually get some chunks which are hard because the heat distribution is not good and its overheated.
Jamie: Put a splash of water
The two asians: What?!
Thank you for reading all the comments. I love your videos and they are very relaxing to watch when i am doing university work. So informative and Uncle Roger is very funny too, great combination! All the best (: ありがとう

I am not a chef, just a mom, from Indonesia, but will not cook like that for my family. I started following Jamie Oliver, then i found out that the recipes are a “too much to digest”, and i started checking whether anyone scream the same like my brain. Then i met “uncle roger” channel and your channel. Thank you both of you. At least i know, i am not the one who is wrong.
After watching your Uncle Roger /Jamie Oliver Egg Fried Rice reaction video, I subscribed. Thank you for showing us how your food products are packaged and how you store them. I also appreciated your translation of Japanese words and concepts😀--very helpful.
As a British person i can say Jamie is more a embarrassment than a "chef" he was popular some 15-20 years ago for trying to force "healthy living" and children (which he was found numerous times to never follow himself) and his restaurant chains are closing everywhere. He maybe was a chef but his time has passed and not in a good way, please don't judge all brits on him, some of us know how to enjoy and appreciate other cultures, Japanese is one of my favourite food types and i hate guys like Jamie who embarrass the nation like this.
I understand how you feel.

EDIT: And justin beiber, and Celine Dion.
In China everybody talks about how bad British foods are, but after visiting UK I found British foods quite decent, amazing cakes especially. I nearly decided to eat at Jamie‘s restaurant once but it scored so low on tripadvisor so I chose something else instead
@@roachzheng2652 good choice to make there, his restaurants are really expensive and the food is so small in portion that even children would leave hungry on a adults meal. Britain doesn't have a amazing pallet of cuisine as we just eat other culture foods (which i guess works) but glad you enjoyed the cakes, one thing we do enjoy is a good cake!
@@DarkCobra88 wish I can revisit after this covid thing finally ends. Western cakes generally are too sweet for us asians, but tasty nevertheless.
I know that not all British people are shameful like Jamie Oliver. Most of them are good people with a good taste about food. I also like British sweets, it's one of the most delicious sweets I've ever tasted. But Jamie Oliver is just a disappointment...... Yare yare daze......
I just want some people to stop “splashing water” on cooked rice, “draining cooked rice in a colander” and “running water through cooked rice”. Please stop. :(
It mentally hurts me seeing Jamie pouring water on the fried rice.

@@gonzarellious6102 what's wrong with drinking water and draining is important especially for a diabetic person...and one more advantage is that even after eating lot of rice it doesn't make you feel sleepy and...that girl didn't washed that rice plus drained cooked rice through tap water is wrong my grandma says never used tap water instead use drinking water which is mixture of cold and luke. My main thing if you didn't drain at all it makes rice overly cooked n wet while eating..

@@dominikastavova799 that makes perfect sense! Thanks you
Everybody wonders about this not only Asian people
Let's start a movement..... Fried rice matters
Hi, Mr. Yuya! This whole topic of when to throw in the spring onions into the pan really depends on the country. For example, Korean people often sizzle spring onion with hot oil in the beginning of the cooking process in order to give the oil the taste and aroma (they call this process "making spring onion oil"). Ofcourse, don't burn the spring onions ;) I personally often prepare two batches of spring onions when I cook - one batch for the oil and one batch for the final garnish. As Uncle Roger says in later videos about Korean food, when in doubt, just throw more spring onions in there :P
I really like your contents! I hope to see more. Greetings from Korea/Germany

The way these 2 said "What!!!" at the same time when Jamie start pouring water on his rice.
I ran a restaurant in the Phillippines and we were known for great food. I test cooked 20 of Oliver's recipes and 20 of Gordon Ramseys...
ALL Olivers tasted crap!! and all Gordons tasted very nice. Gordon's recipes were also MUCH easier and fewer ingredients.
I agree, it's hard to class Jamie Oliver as a real chef, yet he trained under Gordon Ramsay before they fell out.
Agree. All of olivers recipes are not that good
@@woodysmum4471 Looking at Jamie's fried rice, I'd expect Gordon to be rolling in his grave.
…the one that he dug out personally just to roll in after looking at Jamie's video.
I have zero respect for Oliver. He's a hack at best who's ego is much bigger than it should ever be. Gordon Ramsay keeps his ego somewhat in check, even knowing that HE is a great chef. His receipes are usually straightforward and simple to make and always delicious. His shows are fun and engaging. Oliver is boring and always condescending to the viewer.
This is interesting. I think that's why Jamie Olivers' restaurants closed most of them in UK
My parents noticed I had whitewashed tastes despite hailing from a Filipino family. Eventually, when I grew up, I specialized in Western cooking as opposed to every other son who learned our old ways.
This adds a double layer of pain watching this video, because _I see where Jamie is coming from._ Olive Oil and dumping onions in first are _western_ sensibilities that make perfect sense if you're making a Pasta.
Unfortunately, that also means I see clear as day Jamie made no real effort to understand Asian food before emulating it - and worse, being one of the Western world's most well-known people trying to teach it.
This makes sense to me, I don't do Asian cooking beyond the occasional stir fry (and I'm not exactly following a recipe so much as whatever flavours I like!) and I'll default to olive oil for basically everything I cook, because to me it's what oil should taste like.
But then I'm not a professional chef trying to show people how this is actually done!
If he prefaced his videos on these by explaining that they're his personal ways of doing them, I could respect that more, though it seems as if his way is making it actively worse.
Sometimes chefs saying "X meal must always be cooked this way because THATS HOW ITS DONE" is just tradition (or less charitably, regional snobbery) and you can make extremely tasty food by ignoring them.
Other times you should sit down and shut up, because there's very often a reason why it's traditionally done that way and it may be vitally important.
Learn it, understand it, and THEN decide if you want to change it.
You're like a coconut. White inside lol.

Packet rice is basically pre-cooked rice. You just have to reheated it for a few minutes before eating. The show's main target audience are British people who dont usually cook Asian cuisine. So many wouldnt eat rice regularly or have a rice cooker. So, I think the show tried to simply things and use packet rice.

Yes, Jamie Oliver is very famous as a TV chef in the UK. He's especially keen on helping ordinary people to cook more at home by making quick recipes, by presenting cooking awareness campaigns, and doing things like trying to improve the quality of food served in schools and hospitals. All of that, he makes TV series on, which go onto the main terrestrial TV channels. He got popular on TV while most people still only had 5 terrestrial TV channels in the UK, but he's doing well via CZcams as well.

It's always funny when a non-Asian wants to teach an Asian how to cook rice. I have Asian heritage and have cooked rice since about eight years old in a simple little pot which is my rice pot on a stove (though nowadays I use more a rice cooker). Anyway this non Asian friend she saw me preparing my rice and with horror said, "that's not how you cook rice!" So she took over; added about an extra litre of water, boiled it like pasta even running it through a colander with cold water after. While I find it funny now, it was the saddest plate of rice I ever ate 😂
This made me laugh. Very wholesome. Definitely will be checking out more of your videos.

Whole world asian : "WHAT?!"
Not just Asian. My mom is Albanian and she was horrified both times they put water on rice halfway lol. At least this dude didn't drain his rice
True.. we all simultaneously said "What?!"
The pack of rice is a pouch full of almost cooked rice that can be stored in the cupboard for a long time and only needs a couple of minutes in the microwave to be served hot and cooked through. You can also often add it straight to the wok for a few minutes to fry, like Jamie did.
I love your background music! Hearing people enjoy country (especially from the time i grew up) makes me excited! Im always reminded of when i was in 2nd grade and all the teachers taught us how to line dance so we could perform for our parents! 😊😊

We need Jamie Oliver to explain himself!😂
Jamie Oliver is a well known British chef with several published books and tv shows, a lot of them popular where I live (Portugal).
Personally I don't enjoy his recipes and his overall demeanor. The videos he publishes don't help him either, since I've notice that a lot of times he uses it to take little jabs at Uncle Gordon, who makes much better easily to follow recipes and is a lot more popular and talented.
Oh, they both hate each other too, making the fact that Uncle Roger loved Uncle Gordon's dish and hated Jamie's 10x funnier.
The rice from the bag is already cooked for those ~~lazy~~ who don't have time to cook rice.
Yeah, and Jamie Oliver likes to "try cooking healthy", which makes it strange when he suggests an addition to a standard recipe. That's why the tofu is in there. He probably knows it's not there to improve the dish for taste or texture, what he wants is to "make it healthy".
@@afelias
if he wants to make it healthy he should have left out all that extra olive oil and the chillijam.
also the pre-cooked rice is full of artificial conservatives which makes the whole thing even worse.
jamie is always preaching but never practicing what he preaches.
in short hes a hypocrite.
I like Gordon Ramsay. I dislike Jamie Oliver for making jabs at him. plus Jamie's food is boringly healthy and basic looking, as well as not as nice looking. Gordon's food is more enriching and tasty and the presentation is also nicer.
I use a scope to pour grains into a rice cooker. Soak in water for a while and by the time the dinner is ready the rice has been done for a bit. Why do you need precooked rice? It doesn't take four hours to cook rice. Put rice in water before you go to work. Get your kids to drain the water and measure water.
