Five Tips to Making The Perfect Fried Rice

[@joeybagodonuts6683]

To anyone considering buying her wok- I highly recommend it! I'm very happy with mine. Excellent quality at a reasonable price, and it supports a great channel!

[@mariap4828]

I have it too and I make all foods in it. Not just for Chinese food. I sear my filet mignon in it perfectly and finish it there. Then I make my vegetables while the meat rests. I love it. I Did use my John Boos mineral oil for the lid bc it’s recommended if you want it to last longer.

[@mariap4828]

@gsn1a2a3b Oh wow! That’s got to be great!

[@ForTheLoveOfMike]

I love her wok too! I finished seasoning it last month and it's just so beautiful. It's worthy of passing down for another generation 💙

[@bubblegumplastic]

I really love it too. It makes wokking so smooth! I can finally wok successfully! I struggled with finding a decent work for years. I had a "non-stick" one from Ikea when I first started outfitting my kitchen as a teenager, and was still totally clueless, and its black coating started peeling up when I used it over high heat. It was so concerning and so gross. It was a total waste of money Then I bought a stainless steel one, thinking I'd avoid the mess of the layers peeling up. I still have it and it still looks flawless, but it's so heavy, I can barely lift it. Additionally, EVERYTHING sticks to it. It's a nightmare to use Now this channel has finally enabled me to buy a good wok. It's lightweight, strong, and non-stick every time. I'm so happy :) I've bought one for my friend also, who was running into the same issues I was. It's really hard to find a decent wok in local stores here - pan/pot producers just release items that are wok-shaped, but cannot function as a wok is intended to be used

[@emiilyshe]

@@bubblegumplastic Thanks for mentioning that it’s lightweight! My mom has been struggling with the carbon steel wok she has because it’s so heavy. I’ll have to get her this one instead!

Thank you, Mandy for another variation to make Fried Rice "Your Way." I absolutely Love and Believe in YOUR Quote: "The spirit of making fried rice is to use whatever you have and whatever you want." 💜

[@kimanderson2771]

Thank you as always, Mandy. Everything you make always looks absolutely delicious. And you make it look so effortless. I did make your shrimp fried rice for my daughter, and she was absolutely thrilled. ☺️

I can attest that your wok is the best quality wok at this price point. Very affordable and excellent. Thanks.

[@Carol-tq1fb]

Thank Mandy for the tips on making your rice. I basically make my rice the same.way. I usually chop up ham and put in mine and eggs and sometimes left over chicken. It's all good. ❤️

[@JaninaM]

I have leftover garlic pork and veg and rice. I know what my meal tonight is going to be 😉👍

[@catquack]

I just made your fried rice recipe. It was a bit of a departure from my usual fried rice. Two thumbs up -- it was very good! I think it was the Doenjang soybean paste and hoisin sauce that made it pop. Thank you for the added flavour suggestions.

[@yoojincho80]

[@Toriana_Shavon_LaVannah_Blade]

I thought I was the only one who liked a little curry in my fried rice. I enjoy East Indian Biryani and know the cooking methods are similar. I use sesame seed oil and a few sesame seeds. Every time I watch one of your videos, I crave that dish! I’ve made about four recipes so far, with my own spin. They’ve all been DELICIOUS 😋 Thank you so much for quick and easy to follow recipes! ♥️ 🍚 🍜 🥢

The Wok she uses is a great Wok for most American Stoves. The Carbon Steel Wok that I use is a little more expensive and larger. Its heavier too. It is not a Flat Bottom like the one that she uses. The Wok that she recommends is a good Wok for the American Stoves. For me I use a Traditional Round Bottom Wok. I also had to Season it myself. The Wok that she recommends is Pre-Seasoned which is great and makes it easy for most Americans. Mandy does a great job teaching Americans how to cook Delicious Chinese Food. Both Mandarin and Cantonese Hong Kong style. I hope that she continues with her Videos for years to come and grow old together. 🍜🥟🥢

[@TracieSmithpomeranian]

Use what you have. This is why Fried Rice is the perfect budget meal.

[@MP-5am]

I love Chinese foods. And, just amaze how much sodium in the combination of oyster sauce, light and dark soy sauce, fermented bean curd are added in most recipes. These seasonings will definitely shoot the blood pressure of compromised people. Are there any magical tips to skip sodium and not lose the deliciousnes of of Chinese food?

[@Jason-Scott]

A little bit of curry powder is delicious and a dash of MSG 🔥

[@paulhowes5094]

I made a perfect fried rice last night I used 5 spice powder vegetarian oyster sauce instead of the real hoisin sauce light and dark soy also used some zucchini

[@MrsMarks]

Mmmm... Zucchini.

[@Zarkovision]

One remark: If possible, always use leftover rice. It's not the same to cook rice a bit dryer than normal. If you cook rice and wait some hours, it will dry up from the outside and close some water in. When you fry that rice later, the water can't get out at once, it will first get steam, then the starch will brake open. Almost like in Popcorn, but of course in a much smaller scale. This gives the fried rice a special flavour. If you don't have leftover rice, prepare some normal rice, and put in into a stove on low temperature for about 30 minutes, so that the water can partly evaporate.

[@steveparkinson25]

Hi Mandy, thanks for all your yummy recipes, you are always so happy. I hope you have some LIVER recipes. I am trying to incorporate liver in to my diet, but the thought of eating it, really turns my stomach🤮.. I was hoping you had some recipes for liver that would make it palatable so I can eat it and give it to my family too🤤.

[@francescag5574]

Hi I can see the link for cook rice

[@pabloastudillo6903]

I like the taste sesame seed oil- I use it when I make my amazing fried rice- ooops I should have said I’m Cuban.

[@MrsMarks]

I have also wanted to try this. You've given me the inspiration!

[@MrsMarks]

Been experimenting with this for a few years. If adding meat, when is the right time to throw it in? We like our chicken coated but it seems after I add it to hot, steaming rice, the coating dissolves. Am gluten sensitive so I just use corn starch to coat the chicken. Any tips from you or your viewers would be much appreciated.

[@DanHarkinz99]

You cook the chicken first so you get a nice sear on the chicken. Pull it and tent it. Then once you get that fried rice just right, you add it right at the end for 1-2 minutes and your coating shouldn't be removed since you basically locked that in in the beginning. You could also just add the chicken to the serving vs the wok. Then just individually mix it. Just make sure the chicken is fully cooked so 165°F/74°C internal temp. Hope this helps

[@Edska1]

I use stainless steel wok and when I fry rice, it gets stuck to the pan, how do it avoid it?

[@sourcedecay]

Great tips! My favorite way to make fried rice is by first cooking chicken thigh pieces with kung pao seasonings. I cook that up so they're a bit charred, remove them from the heat, then work on the rest of the dish in the wok. I use onions or shallots, a lot of garlic, and the whites from the scallions I'm using. The only seasonings I use in the rice are light soy sauce, 5 spice powder, and some msg. Add the chicken when you're happy with the rice, add some frozen peas. When they're warm, add scallion greens and serve. I'll add some more scallion greens over my portion and if I'm in the mood I'll add a little oyster sauce or okonomiyaki sauce, and sometimes cilantro. Tasty! Edit: oh yeah, can't forget the egg! I very quickly scramble 2 eggs after I cook the chicken, then set it aside with the chicken until it's time to combine everything.

[@tomgarabed6568]

Will that wok work on an electric stove top?

[@jx22283]

Salt blackpepper, chicken powder, and soy sauce. That's enough for a VERY good fried rice

[@tuppenceworth5485]

Use whatever you want for fried rice. Tell that to Uncle Roger.

[@rlwalker2]

I was expecting to see eggs chopped up in the fried rice. I was also surprised to not see fish sauce. I am not a fan of that and usually leave it out anyway. Thank you for the recipe.

[@mtranchi]

2:02 Lol, diabolical mom... :)

[@Chac500]

I think the first tip should be to use one day old cold rice..

[@jamest8158]

2:02 A motivated picky eater won't be stopped by finely chopped vegetables! My dog is a picky eater, she'll pick out the dry dog food from the bowl just to get to the fresh small pieces of home made chicken I had mixed into it! 🙄

[@OblivionZXZ]

I'll suggest you to add chopped coriander at the end too.

[@SoupedUpRecipes]

LOL! definitely will taste good. The sprit of fried rice is to use whatever you have and whatever you want.

[@lisahinton9682]

@@s1iznc1d34 Perhaps chop your coriander ("cilantro" to much of the world) more finely. I, too, don't like it when I get a whole leaf in a spoonful of fried rice, but mincing it more finely solves the problem.
