This french guy Alex, he make whole series about fried rice
And he said he want to make it better than Michelin star Cantonese restaurant
I've been trying really hard to make perfect
At the Michelin star cantonese restaurant level
Restaurant level egg fried rice?
But he looks so nerdy
he looks less like Chef
More like guy who fix my computer
Let's see how he do
Niece and nephew, remember to go check out nephew Nigel podcast
Rice to meet you
Sometime on the podcast
You can even hear Auntie Helen roasting Uncle Roger
Take his pants off
And like, where is it?
That why uncle roger like rice so much
Because they the same size
Link in description
Hey guys, salut! This is Alex. Welcome back to the fried rice series
whereI'm trying to master chao fan
Just learn how to make fried rice
No need to learn how to write Chinese letter for fried rice
Wasting time, this not going to make your fried rice better
I'm trying to master fried rice at a restaurant level
That is very vague
Because restaurant can be Michelin star restaurant
or it can be Jamie Oliver restaurant
So far in this journey
I've been over hills and valleys
Buying gears, tasting real fried rice, making my own stove
Oh nice
I've been learning the theory
So many things he do
Making my own stove. I've been practicing the technique
I've been learning the theory
I think this guy very obsessive
He got OCD or something
No need for theory, look at the diagram
Are you making egg fried rice
Or are you trying to rob bank?
If this nephew rob bank and we make movie about him
That movie should be named ocean one
because it look like he have no friend
Uncle Roger think this a little bit extra
Egg fried rice so simple 3 ingredient
Egg, fire and rice
I hate to be this guy children
Daddy, I hungry. Can you make me some egg fried rice?
And he go: fuck off, I'm building my stove
In a few minutes, I've got the Chef Samuel Lee Sum
The chef from Shang Palace in Paris Michelin star Chinese restaurant
He agree to evaluate my skills
Drama!
I don't think I'm going to be able to impress the chef with just a regular fried rice
I wanted to add more me personality in this dish
No no no don't add your personality to dish
Uncle Roger don't want to know what French hipster taste like
I went to the market , there's an open air Market nearby
Artisan, butcher and a chicken Rotisserie
I've been buying local and seasonal produce
Local produce
Why? France no grocery store is it? Haiya
Also don't just use local produce
Because French Market not gonna sell MSG
Uncle Roger predict this nephew not going to use MSG in his fried rice
He's gonna make Uncle Rogers sad
Keep watching to see if I correct
Haiya, shoe in house, what wrong with French people
Hello chef!
What is that?
Nephew Alex why you put paper on wall like that
So ugly, Just get Post-it note
Post-it note very cheap
See
No need tape
It's good to see you chef, come in, welcome!
Nice space
This is the stove
Nice space
The place okay at best
I love this, really professional
You want one for yourself? you want me to build another one for your
Garden parties maybe?
This stove it goes from medium low to medium high
Okay
Who's that in the background?
This nephew living with two women
Hmm, Uncle Roger underestimate him
This nerdy guy got two women with him?
How much you pay for them
How much?
It's good idea
With this stove, it goes from medium low to medium high
Surely you should go from Off to medium-high
Let's go let's go
Okay let go
My mom used to hit me with that
Coating the wok, good
Oil go in
Egg into oil okay
Look very good stirring motion on the egg
It look better than in his first video
Back then he stirred like a baby learning what a spoon is
Rice looks nice and dry, that's good
Punching rice to loosen it, not bad
Nice wok toss
Sugar
Salt
Haiya no MSG, see what I tell you
Spring onion, good
What is that? Uncle Roger don't know
Pea? Haiya
In earlier episode when Chef Samuel go to local market
Today I going to Market to choose
The fresh ingredient
He gets scallop shrimp and asparagus
But this nephew Alex go to local market
And all he gets is pea and weird meat haiya
Why don't you just get that shit from grocery store
No need to go all the way to market to get pea
Pea tastes like shit anyway
But the wok hay so far look very good, point for that
Just trying to wake it up
Thank you, sir
Soy sauce, ok uncle roger thought you forgot
This music so epic
Okay and now a few words from
What happening?
Haiya sponsor message
Don't interrupt uncle roger enjoyment
Grammarly why you sponsor him?
You should sponsor Uncle Roger, My English grammar so fuiyoh!
So weird how this nephew read ad
He look like he podcasting
Skip this bullshit
Fuiyoh, this looks so nice
Look at this, all the rice Individual grain
Little bit wok hay charring on the rice
Nice bright color and look so light and fluffy
The fried rice look like good Cantonese fried rice
Thank you chef
This is the moment
Yes
-So happy today to see this fried rice -Cheer
Who cheer with fried rice
This not alcohol
Are you gonna down that bowl of fried rice?
Let's try it
Yes
Let's see what he thinks
It's really good
Okay
Fuiyoh
The rice are not too dry
Okay and one by one separate
Separate is correct
Good egg fried rice should remind uncle Roger of my own marriage
So I thought if I just make for you
Fried rice with egg scallions and rice
We will never be impressed by my technique
So I'm thinking I must bring something beyond that
And that's why I've been bringing memories
Memory
Uncle Roger don't want to make egg fried rice with memory
Uncle Roger don't want my fried rice taste like pain
This is a reference to a childhood memory of mine
For Sunday lunch with my family we would have roast chicken
Along with crisp or potato chip and we will have a salad on the side
And that's basically what I've been trying to replicate
I've bought some rotisserie chicken
Oh so that meat is chicken
Added peas for freshness to mimic the salad
A few pickles just to get the dressing vibe
And some super fine potato chips powder
He put potato chip in his fried rice
What next, sandwich and a bottle of coke? haiya
And what he say earlier?
For Sunday lunch with my family we would have roast chicken
We would have roast chicken along with crisps or potato chips
For family dinner all you have is
Chicken and potato chip?
Is your family divorced or something
What kind of mom do this?
Are you adopted because that what we feed to people we don't give a shit about
Rotisserie chicken, I chopped up the dark meat
And then I added peas for freshness to mimic the salad
Why would you ever want egg fried rice to mimic salad?
Who want anything to ever mimic the salad?
Nobody eat salad because we think salad taste good
We eat salad because we don't want be fat
Some super fine potato chips powder
Also he crushing the potato chip into powder
That's so sad childhood
Uncle Roger grow up so poor
But my parents never feed me potato chip powder
I always get the full potato chip
If I want to make the taste of my home
That's how I would twisted without changing it too much
Fried rice, egg, rice and scallions is the base, the Ingredient
You can have different combination
Even though Uncle Roger don't agree with his ingredients
I have to say his techniques still very good
So maybe we can evaluate
How good the dish is
From one to ten
Oh scoring
0 is bad takeaway in France
Okay you know very mushy texture
Okay so that 0
Proper Cantonese fried rice, for example like your restaurant is 10
Where is this one?
Uncle Roger gonna give this 8.5
Would be 9 if he use MSG
Just be honest
For me I think
Eating because I've got anxiety
7 point
Seven
I thought I would get less than this
7
This chef so high standard fuiyoh
Uncle roger need to check out his restaurant
Niece and nephew
You just Experience Asian parent
If your parent Asian
Nothing you do will ever better than 7
Even if you Bill Gates
If Bill Gates parent Asian
He still getting 7
7, man, cool
That's good thank you chef so much
Thank you
Sorry to interrupt Alex here from the studio
but I've got something to share with you we made for the series- a poster
The path to fried rice
You using Thumbtack? haiya
nephew Alex you need to learn how to Put shit on wall
First to use black tape
Now you use thumbtack haiya
Invest in nail or a hammer
Or Uncle Roger can even send you a drill if you fancy
Also this poster look like a Lord of the Ring poster
Only difference is one have weird looking hobbit guy
The other has Frodo Baggins
So guys how do I feel at the moment
Well, I Feel good
I've been practicing alot, I've been studying for this moment
And the fact that the chef evaluated my skill at 7
Unexpected
