Singaporean chinese watching Taiwanese and Japanese reacting to Malaysian Chinese reacting to Anglo-Indian cooking British fried rice

Uncle Roger is a character played by comedian Nigel Ng.

That is literally the intruction printed on rice bags in UK Also, she just had to follow the recipe BBC gave her. She actually cooks it the correct way

I`m Korean and I think most of Korean measure water with palm on rice until water covers fingers

React to Jamie Oliver one, he's worse than Hersha 😂

I'm from malaysia..by the way, i think any rice cooker would have the measurements inside..i mean the rice cooker i have at home also have it..but we still prefer to use finger😂

I love this...half of the reactors I come across are Japanese XD This guy is going global...

Oh my gosh I LOVE both of your reactions to the draining / rinsing of the rice. Makoto is usually so reserved but you cracked up and I am living for it! (Chinese Canadian here and I have always used the finger method for the water measuring for the rice because I have an ancient rice cooker like Eric’s parents 🙃) great video! On to the next one :)

I've just subscribed because you guys are entertaining *thumbs up* Anyway, I'm a Malay Malaysian and we Malays cook fried rice similar to Uncle Roger. We measure with finger, wash rice before cooking, love MSG, and should always use wooden spoon or spatula with non-stick woks/pans. But personally, the best is to use leftover rice and leftover chicken or beef dishes (shred the meat and add into fried rice). Yummy!! LOL It's really interesting to see the similarities between Asian countries' methods of cooking. Looking forward to see more of yr video reactions :D

In Italy boiling the rice and draining it with colender is a way we use to make rice salad, it's a typical summer cold dish, u can even bring on the beach, when you are on holidays; and that's the way we cook it, but it's completely different from eggs fried rice 😄

I remember that my mom did rice like in that video. I'm using rice cooker. Not sure was it washed because they wanted rice as non sticking form or was it that type of rice. When looking rice package here it will tell that boil fist then rinse. Some packages also have instructions how to cook with right amount of water but they don't say anything that you need wash it first in that situation. Usually those packages are 1kg carton boxes.

I'm from latinoamerica and we also use finger measuring for the rice 😂🤣🤣 That bbc fried rice was bad but the one from jamie oliver was the W O R S T please watch it!!

it was not her idea to cook this ..it was BBC cooking method for her to follow the recepie..... 😂LOL😅

Auntie Hersha : Don't be afraid Uncle Roger : FAILURE

why your Japanese dude look like the old actor of Kamen Rider Black 🖤 🐜 [Gosh Dang!!!!]

I realized after living in Japan for years I haven’t used the finger method when measuring water. I don’t think I’ll survive without a Japanese rice cooker now haha. 🤣

I am British Taiwanese; thank God I have never read the instruction! I just buy rice, wash it and use my finger like I was taught. is that really how the instruction goes?? I must check the rice bag next time I buy some rice!!

Haha. This literally lit the 2nd half of 2020. Thats exactly what the world needs 2 overcome the misery of COViD.

Also here in Philippines we use finger and we wash before the before cook .,,i feel you uncle roger

Several years ago, the county I live in issued a public service announcement stating that the Jefferson County Board of Health strongly urges its residents to rinse their rice after cooking, as unwashed rice presents a health hazard.

he is Malaysian not Malay... lol

I want to tell you I made Egg Fried Rice myself and it was delicious. You know what I did? I prepared the Rice normally. Washing it (prior to cooking) and then cooked it in a normal pot, I don't have Rice cooker. The thing is, I let the fresh made Rice to rest for 5 hours before I fried it. So by the time I came to fry it was dry and good. I understand that if you let the fresh Rice to rest it's okay. So I used green Chili, red Bell Pepper, Ginger, Garlic, Onion, Spring Onion in the end. Seasoned with Salt, Black Pepper, Paprika (I couldn't help it. I love Paprika, I am of Romanian origin Jew), and Soy sauce in the end. Believe me it turned out to be amazing flavors. Any advice about what to add more? Or is it good enough the way I did it? This time it was without meat and I love meat a lot.

I'm glad u didnt say anything about that BBC joke

Makoto 😍

I think the issue is they get pork fried rice and egg fried rice mixed up. Think that is where the peas come from.

No one in south america cooks rice like this either, smh. Actually, no one cooks like this period. Only for rice pudding dessert.

So in her defense, on the rice packages here in the US, it will say to not rinse the rice, as it acts like you will lose nutrients. That said, her draining the rice undoes that! But about her draining the rice, I did see this kind of direction in one America’s Test Kitchen recipe. Terrible idea. The rice lost its characteristic texture, flavor and shape.

You cook basmati rice with draining the rice but it can be made either way with or without draining

Good luck with your KZfaq channel!

Wanna know another way to upset an Asian? Use metal spoon on non-stick pan. I live in a Filipino household in the United States (born and raised Filipino-American) and when I was thirteen years old who didn't know any better, I made the fatal mistake of using metal spoon on non-stick. The result: My dad slapped my back till it turned red.

Dude. Japanese cinema should have Shang Chi already. Go watch it. They feature not 1 but 2 Malaysians. Michelle Yeoh and Ronny Chieng.

A bit of background. Western society has grown towards convenience food. This is why you can fit two Japanese adults in a single American kid. Many people don't really know how to cook any more and buy prepared foods that only require microwaving or take-away and this is especially true for urban areas like London where everyone is too busy to even think about food until the moment comes that their stomach starts protesting. BBC (the TV station, not the male organ - thank you for that image Nigel) was probably the first to start TV shows teaching people that cooking your own meal can be fun, doesn't require a full day in the kitchen or as Hersha put it nothing to be afraid of. Of course the objective here is not to show how good the hosts are, but that you can do it too and place something on the table that is better tasting, healthier and as a bonus a lot cheaper. Note the emphasis Hersha put on the take-away fried rice costing 8 pounds, that is the reverse psychology they put in these shows to make people want to start cooking their own meals. Last, it must be noted that northern Europe is potato country. Rice does not belong to our daily meal, it's mostly part of variation exotic foods, just like pasta, and as a result we don't usually have left-over rice. I keeps pretty well in the freezer though and if you plan ahead you can also cook the rice in the morning before going to work and use it when you get back.

MSG is the king of flavour LOL

So THIS is why people think rice has plastic bits in it! Cooking it like pasta?!

I’m from Brazil we cook rice completely different from the Asian way but we do wash the rice first and we don’t eat soggy rise. I live in England and here we eat a lot Indian, Chinese and Japanese food and it never looked like that. The fact the food is bland I can not understand people in England like bold flavours They put vinegar in fish and chips and some people like chicken Vindaloo 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️ so BBC should just have a Chinese cook or someone that at least know how to cook to be on a cookery show

You think that one is bad try Uncle Roger's reactions to Kay Cooking Special Fried rice

Lol Ur British accent really makes me laugh

Should check out uncle rogers latest upload, hes reacting to British Bake off Japanese Themed

I suggest you watch his another reaction video Wang gang cooks fried rice

The easiest fried rice is garlic fried rice. Oil, garlic, rice, salt.

I haven't tried Hersha Patel's recipe yet but I'm keen to. I wonder what her fried rice would have been like if the rice were already a day old before being stir-fried. Good enough, I'm sure. Forgive me, but people are being carried away by a sort of snobbery, in saying rice must be washed first, the water must be measured using a finger not a cup, rice mustn't be drained and rinsed after cooking; surely none of that matters much. What matters is that people aren't afraid to try to cook rice and that they manage to make something edible. I personally never ever cook rice because to me there has been a scary mystique around it. Hersha has removed that. Thank you, Hersha, and thank you, Uncle Roger, for drawing my attention to her video (as well as making me laugh). Thank you, Hersha, for telling me not to be afraid. Thanks for recommending using the maximum water which means I know the pan won't go dry, a fear of mine. And knowing that it's all right to drain rice after cooking changes everything.

It’s normal in the west not to wash the rice. The MSG is funny but they market no MSG to us to buy it.

In SG even have many different kind of fried rice also we don’t cook fried rice like that. The way to cook rice is wrong also. 🤦🏻‍♀️ no seasoning all that. How she can qualify to cook fried rice.

Great reaction. Please react to Uncle Roger reacting to Jamie Oliver.

I would like some gravy fried rice
