These fried rice recipes are a-ma-zing. Emily's fried rice is the kind you make as a broke college student (I certainly have made that one).

1. emily fried rice is the most basic version of fried rice, just light soy sauce, & protein . sometimes we just don't want to exaggerate the fried rice with a tonne of ingredients. it should be simple and quick cooking in the early morning breakfast so that why we have leftover cold rice as our main ingredients. 2. Lorenzo, I'm lost with the combination of a lot of ingredients down there.

[@hydratheorganism9639]

My mom taught me how to cook fried rice like King’s since a kid. The important thing when frying rice is the order in which the ingredients go in your pan. Try not overload your fried rice with too many ingredients and keep the frying order like King did and it will work out great.

[@thedoctor2405]

@array s I actually believe you've gotten it wrong. It's (in order first to last) oil, ginger/garlic, chilli, onions, meat, veggies & rice. Adding ginger, garlic, chilli and/or onions first kinda "flavours" the oil which then enters the meat.

[@satanstan11]

@array s I'm Asian (Malaysian specifically) too and I think we should all just agree that everybody has different cooking methods LOL It ALL depends on your family, what you learnt on your own, your own trials and errors, AND PREFERENCES!! I put onions, a little salt, and I add lots of garlic (they're roughly diced so they have some size and won't get burnt too fast) when the onions are translucent so they won't get burnt. Before the garlic gets brown, I add the sliced/small cubed meat, season a little, the vege, season a little, then the rice, knobs on butter + bottled minced garlic on the edges, some soy sauce and sesame oil too. Once it's all mixed together I'll adjust to taste with more soy sauce or black pepper if I need to. If I feel like it I'll make a well in the middle and add some eggs and slowly scramble it into the rice. Once the rice is out, I fry a sunny side up egg (basted so the yolk is gooey, not runny) to top on the rice. Personally, I put Japanese mayo and my fav Linghams sweet chilli on it all. Also some baby gem lettuce on the side for some crunch if I want to. Sometimes I kind of use the baby gem lettuce as a scoop to put the rice on and eat it k-bbq style lol, preferences!! I love a savoury, garlicky, black peppery, and a slightly buttery fried rice. I go crazy on black pepper and garlic. I think the most important thing is to not overcrowd the pan so everything can be cooked evenly. Of course that's no issue if you got a nice big wok. NOBODY I know adds egg and meat first, but you know what, it's obviously different in your home, and that's just what YOU do. Preferences!! I know some people who don't even use garlic, but garlic powder. Honestly, sometimes I use both because I love garlic that much.

[@anhtang8059]

@array s I understand that each family has their own ways of cooking and your method is completely fine. But I have to agree that people tend to put aromatics like garlic and onion in first before the meat. I personally agree with Lightning Cat. You're not gonna burn them because the juice from the meat will come out and slows down the burning process. The aromatics flavors are very subtle but is a hallmark to asian food. That's why our grandparents have been washing/marinating meat with ginger or garlic or any of that sort. As a chemical engineer, I also have to add that the aromatics added in first aid in forming the burnt toasty meaty flavor and that yellowish brown that covers the meat (that is not burnt food that's Maillard reaction)

[@marky8745]

You started a great chain of comments! My grandma made an italian rice dish and put the ingredients in your/King's order, sadly, minus the ginger, but interestingly/weirdly with tomatoes!

Why doesn’t the “scientist” explain that if your pan is too full you’re basically steaming your fried rice, instead of frying it. The smaller the amount the better. One to two portions max.

[@mattschemmer3091]

Yeah - it's annoying, this is the most common home-cook mistake with fried rice. It still tastes fine (rice is good and all), but you're missing out on the signature taste of *fried* rice. A that point, you're just eating cooked rice with stuff in it. Lorenzo should have dumped his GIANT bowl of vegetables in a side bowl, kicked that sucker on a higher heat, fried the rice, then mixed it all back in. Same dish but would've tasted 10x better.
