I wish my wife was still alive to watch videos like this. She was Japanese born and raised but when she wanted to could speak better and more clear English than myself who was born and raised in Oklahoma. She LOVED to speak in a bogus Asian accent, like Uncle Roger. She loved to fuck with people. She also loved my cooking and encouraged me in all ways and things, but especailly my cooking. She always told me she wanted to get old and fat with me. As far as packaging goes, the wife's grandfather used to send us stuff all the time and they were always packaged in neat tidy little jars. This was in the 90s in my part of the world at the time there weren't any Asian grocery stores close by and getting some things was nearly impossible. We literally drove 2 hours halfway across the state to an Asian grocery store just to get some sesame seed oil and rice that didn't make her mad to look at.

I'm a prep cook at a wine and bruschetta restaurant. That chili jam is pretty good (not for egg fried rice LOL). We toast a piece of bread, rub a garlic clove on it, spread an herb goat cheese and the jam on it then crack a little pepper on top with some chives. It's really good for a pretty quick, yet "fancy", snack. It's so cool we live in an age where I can watch people from all over the world talk about food and learn traditional ways to cook from other countries from the comfort of my own home... amazing days to be alive!

Yes! I totally agree with you! We can share our thoughts and learn lots of new things from people around the world!!

If chili jam is the same kind of thing as hot pepper jam or jelly, then there's an appetizer from the Southern US where you swirl softened (room temp) cream cheese with the jam and then spread it on crackers. You get the same kind of creamy/gooey/crunchy and mild/sweet/spicy/salty contrasts.

As an American chili jam was actually suggested to me by a worker about 2 weeks ago at the grocery store, apparently the last batch they had gotten had sold out in a couple days. This was in the cheese department (I am lucky that where I live there is a great selection of imported and local cheeses) which makes sense for this condiment (I've seen it paired with ones like manchego or some strong Italian cheeses, or with super creamy cheeses like cream cheese or goat cheese). On egg fried rice? a tragedy and travesty. Just an all around NO. (There is also chili honey as well - again - i'd pair it with cheese, not egg fried rice!). Hope this helps to explain this madness a bit. (As another side note good cheese sections often contain ingredients that seem crazy on their own, lots of strange jams, honeys, crackers, salts etc, but when paired with specific cheeses they bring out really unique and wonderful flavors.)

@@calvite100 He went on a massive crusade in the UK against the quality of school dinners which, while certainly well meaning, cost him a lot of popularity as he was seen as basically being really preachy to parents and kids as while the quality of meals improved it removed choice and also he seemed to completely misunderstand why some people have to buy cheap food, it's not because they waste money elsewhere, it's that they're trying to bring up a family on crap wages, often working 2 jobs and they don't have the time or money to cook from scratch every day. I remember one of his books started by basically claiming he'd been on a nutrition course, making him sound like a guy who'd done a 101 course and thus knew more than everyone else. He's also been very critical of chefs such as Marco Pierre White, again being seen as preachy and holier than thou while his restaurants were actually called out for not using local produce, like he claimed, and also for poor hygene. He's basically someone who preaches to people about health and morality and then doesn't back it up with his own actions by taking huge sponsorship deals with those who the local communities are competing with (i.e. supermarkets and oil companies). Don't get me wrong, the guy's done a lot more good than harm and his campaigns definitely come from a good place and he has well deserved success but the British people don't like being preached at. Information is fine, but telling people what to do, especially when it comes to their daily habits, does not go over well in this country we much prefer advice and to make decisions for ourselves. In 2019, all but 3 of his restaurants in his restaurant group closed and 1,000 people lost their jobs and in 2020 they were found to have breached labour laws.

Typically in a Western frying pan / skillet, but I think it would work well in a wok. -- Of course, you can find other recipes demonstrated for Mexican rice. It is a staple dish, so everyone has their own variation. -- Try a goo Mexican or Tex-Mex or Latin American restaurant, if you have not had it before. ;0 Very good, warm and comforting.

Well, Uncle Roger mainly presents a Chinese perspective on fried rice. The wok, for instance, is not really used in Korean cooking. Adding some kind of liquid to fried rice is quite common too (not plain water, but many people would add some kimchi juice when making kimchi fried rice), and some chili pepper paste that is a little sweet (some people even add a bit of sugar).

[@kjcard2]

I live in America, and we dont make rice like this either. Olive oil is very heavy oil which is used for salads, not frying. I use canola or sesame oil to fry. One of the good things about living here is we have so many cultures here most people learn how to make so many different foods. 3 nights ago I made pizza, 2 nights ago I made pho, last night I made Jamaican jerk chicken.

When you had tofu you cut it nicely then fry it or boil depends but i still will chose fried since it got the crispy outside but still people doslike tofu usually because of its after taste and i also am the same.

I never knew chilli jam was such a strange thing, it's essentially just a way to preserve chillies it adds a bit of sweetness and heat, the reason for using it in a fried rice would be that the sugars would caramelise so kind of like the maillard reaction when cooking meat the browning would give it a rich developed flavour but then the pillock added water so it stopped frying that was just dumb

Jamie likes to think he is a common man's chef, which is why he rarely puts on a chef jacket and campaigns for things like healthy school food. He also angered the Caribbean community by introducing 'jerk rice' , something that doesn't exist in Caribbean cuisine.

[@projectdelta50]

Sriracha used to be Asian when the founder originally made it in South Korea, but then he moved to the United States to the City of LA. He was unable to find Asian chilies, so he settled for Red Jalapenos, which is more Mexican than Asain, they still use Red Jalapeno in their recipe to this day. The headquarters are here in LA California. 😁

any chilli jam recipes call for peppers, or ginger, or garlic, or tomatoes, or … well, you name it. But all you really need is sugar, chillies (obviously), vinegar and a source of pectin, which makes jam set.

[@alsinbad3772]

Good afternoon dear lady, just for 9:05 , what I have seen in many Asian countries including South Korea, China, Singapore, Thailand and Japan is that people usually serve tofu is cutting it to regular shapes such as cube and slice etc to evenly cook them(also for beautniness), and I think that is what Uncle Roger really meant for "whole shape", instead of randomly tearing tofu apart just like what Jamie have done.

[@mframemusicdtp]

True...my favorite Korean tofu is sliced and browned on both sides then dipped in a spicy garlicky soy sauce/sesame oil mix, and if I don’t cut it evenly, it affects the cooking time.

Oh wow, first time I see a Japanese who speaks cantonese :) Also, the proper chilli stuff to put in a fried rice should be "sambal", like the one used by Gordon Ramsay in his nasi goreng video. It's a chilli paste that is hot, a bit sweet (but not sweet from sugar, or tomato, like the chilli jam), rich in flavor, very delicious. If you like hot dishes, guaranteed you will like sambal.

In many Western countries, chili jam is served with strong, savoury cheeses and bisquits. At least here in Iceland, it is rarely used for anything else. I would never consider using it in fried rice unless I'm really desperate for chili! 🤣🤣🤣

We have the juice box tofu in the US but it's only silken tofu/not normal tofu which kind of has to be crumbled because it doesn't cut or hold it's shape well. It's good for sweet tofu dishes, smoothies, as a vegan ricotta substitute and in a pinch it can work for korean soft tofu stew, the texture is like egg tofu but even softer. It's shelf stable so I've kept it around to toss into stir-fries and the like for extra protein but it's so delicate that it really disappears into the dish.

[@MrsEats]

I think Oliver was trying to show how someone living in the UK could easily make fried rice at home. Most people don't have a wok, most people have olive or peanut oil instead of canola or goma oil, etc. I think chili jam would be like gochujang or something.

[@dustdevil8943]

I'm british and i can tell you the main cooking oils are sunflower or vegetable oil. Olive oil is used more in the upper classes as they think its classy or fancy i don't know. I think it tastes like crap to be honest and should only be used sparingly in a few dishes. Also he uses the pre cooked packet rice coz he thinks its a poor mans thing but in fact is actually more expensive than a bag of uncooked rice. Like uncle roger said he was being lazy and i have to agree. Jamie Oliver does not represent our country. We may have a reputation for bad food but a lot of us do know how to cook tasty food.
