      People/restaurants use day old rice because it's already made and costs less. It also saves rice. People work to hard to harvest rice to throw away. It's a very bad omen to throw away rice. Very bad. Very very bad.

    I love how these tips are friendly for home cooking and he never expects everyone to have the same skill level of cooking. If you can't toss it in the wok then use chopsticks with the wok spatula. There's never talking down of how other ppl cook. There is not the "one" method and I like that. I've used both leftover and fresh rice. Both come out great.

    • @WinS392

    @chanzixiang Před 7 měsíci +32

    This is exactly how I do it after years for experimentation. If your wok / pan and fire is too small, you can remove the cooked egg and add it back at the end. Always stir at highest heat and use smallest fire when adding ingredients / seasoning. Instead of more cooking oil at the end, you can use sesame oil at the end for another layer of flavour. With much practice, you'll soon realise that the rice texture, fresh / overnight, does not matter. You'll be able to control or change the texture through the frying process. In the words of Yan Can Cook, It's stir fry and not stare fry, so keep moving. I use a well seasoned cheap carbon steel wok with rusted out round bottom seated on a large modified stainless steel mixing bowl on my biggest burner.

    I love Chef Lau’s recipes. We always use Thai Jasmine rice, too. Every time I make a stir fry dish and don’t check with Chef Lau first, or use someone else’s recipe or method, it’s never as good. I love the videos and have learned a lot. Thank you! ❤

    I've always had trouble making fried rice & it looks like I use too much water when making the rice. Nice tips.

  • @SwatBeatsOfficial
    @SwatBeatsOfficial Před 6 měsíci +3

    I also consider myself a master of fried rice.
    Some tips/differences: I use fresh garlic, ginger and onion. I use bacon fat to cook it for enhanced flavor. I use a mix of soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, sugar or erythritol and MSG and pour it on the sides of the hot wok to cook out excess water and amp up the flavor before mixing it in. I usually use shrimp and add the left over shrimp liquid to add really nice shrimpy flavor. You can use cauliflower rice instead of or mixed in with regular rice to cut down the carbs/arsenic in rice. Add red chili flakes for a kick of spice or finish with sesame oil for a little nutty finish.
    P.S. Your dad is a G!

    1st time my fried rice turned out non-clumpy and tasted great. And believe me I have tried multiple times. The way you explained the directions and the reasons why, gave me a fuller picture of what I was aiming for and how to achieve it. Thank you

    My 30 year old WOK hasn't been used in at least 15 years. I was (seriously) distraught when my husband tried to clean it, using Brillo metal soap scrub, telling me "I tried to get all the black off"... It's a wonder we didn't get a divorce(!!!) if you know, you know. It had such an unbroken, well-seasoned, perfect patina. I was heartbroken. Seeing the video, I'm breaking it out, restoring, seasoning, and visiting my local Asian market to get good rice, oil, and seasoning, and will start with some good fried rice! Enjoyed your video very much...

    • @Xkittyloverr1997
      @Xkittyloverr1997 Před 7 měsíci +1

      You don't even have to make the rice dry if you don't want to. It makes it easier to stir-fry, but it's hardly a requirement. I make fried rice all the time with fresh rice. The only time old rice is a requirement is if you're a heathen like me, who occasionally uses Japanese rice 😂

    • @3vil3lvis
      @3vil3lvis Před 7 měsíci +1

      You don't have to use day old rice, but the goal is lower moisture content. You can achieve this by spreading the rice out on a plate 1 inch thick and microwaving it for 6-7 minutes (may need to adjust the time depending on the power of your microwave).

    • @theiaraine
      @theiaraine Před 6 měsíci +1

      day old+ rice is way easier though. You might find more success

    Hey Randy, been trying to perfect fried rice for a long time. Do you ever add shrimp or prawns as we call them? They are one of my favourite ingredients in fried rice!

    I like the fact that you don't have to make it from the " 1 day old rice" just use less water in a fresh batch, however an important note is that even though the ratio is 1 to 1 the rice that your using has been washed so its wet.
