This is my boyfriend's favourite dish. I can't seem to get it right. Can anyone give me some tips and tricks to perfect this?
I can cook almost anything really well apart from asian food and he loves asian foods.

Pls help.

Refrigerated, already cooked rice is best for fried rice - doesn't stick together.

>> No.16373998

What have you been doing? I assume you know the basics, like to use dark soy sauce and oyster sauce.

>> No.16374018

>>16373993
Thank you! I knew that tip

>>16373998
I use day old rice and fry off onions, garlic and veggies, I add the rice with a splash of soy sauce and then add an egg right at the end.

I'm missing the oyster sauce I guess..

I've looked into it. The problem is that our home kitchen stoves do not get any where near the BTUs of chink restaurant woks to create the individually crispy grains of rice that is the foundation of fried rice. The closest I've come to is the persian fried rice dish called tahdig rice where you "fry" the rice at low heat for a very long time to get a crispy bottom.

Yes! I thought so too. The wok never gets hot enough. I'll try the persian rice and see if that helps. Maybe cooking the rice first, before the vegetables will help.
Thanks Anon!

what make it 'special' fried rice?

>> No.16374371

>>16374048
Fuck off retard anyone with a stove can get their wok hot enough to make good fried rice if you do it properly.
OP, please look up Chinese Cooking Demystified and avoid all the disinfo and contradictions you will find in this thread. They have all the information and ingredients you need. But I will say that the number one thing western cooks are missing when they say they can’t quite replicate take-out flavor is shaoxing wine.

>> No.16374589

ok here's the secret, cook the rice the day before and leave it in the fridge overnight, cook the different ingredients seperately then add at the end. Like if you just throw in raw eggs to the rice at the end its going to end up shitty. cook the eggs first, remove them then add some onion, then scallion and garlic once it starts to sweat, add the protein that you want, depending on what veg you use you will add it at a varying time, you want to get a good sear on the protein though so don't just throw the veg in while the meat is cooking otherwise it will just steam. add the rice then the sauce mix, add the eggs back in and give it a good toss. make sure to use plenty of oil and add a little extra oil at the end. Now go and stop fucking up asian food.

This is very very good advice. I am screenshotting this for next week.

I knew it had something to do with the order I cook things. Last time I added the egg on top of the rice, it came out so gluey. He still ate it but I felt bad feeding him something so horrible.

Do you use MSG? That's like the main flavor of take-out Chinese

>> No.16374670

>>16374618
I also remove the onion/garlic/scallion before I add the meat and crank up the heat to max so you get a good sear but also don't burn the aromatics, good luck on the next time you make it. Using a combination of light/dark soy sauce is good too because it adds better color.

>> No.16374709

>>16374618
To add to his post, when you add soy sauce and wine, drizzle it around the edge of the wok so it falls directly on the hot surface. This makes it reduce very quickly as well as burning off the alcohol from the wine and actually cooks the soy sauce slightly giving it a nice flavor
Oh also look up j kenji lopez’s fried rice or stir fry video I forget which. He talks about how you can replicate the smoky flavor of wok hei at home using a culinary torch, should you want to go that far.

tip: use leftover rice. or, let your freshly cooked rice stand on a baking sheet for a half hour. I follow this recipe and it is fucking cash. do NOT skip cooking the yolks and whites separately, it makes all the difference. then you can add any protein you want such as chicken, shrimp etc.

Can I cook the egg like in this video:

with an induction stove? This way looks like the egg coats the rice really well and helps give it a yellowish color

Dark soy sauce is different. If your bf loves Chinese food, you'll need some and Shoaxing (or however it's spelled) rice wine. Generic Chinese brown sauce is 1:1:1 light soy sauce:dark soy sauce: rice wine.

Fry your rice first, get that snap crackle and pop going, then push the food to the side and add the soy sauce to the pan. And I normally cook my eggs at the beginning and put them aside. Good luck!

for FUCK SAKE not this shit again
Wash your rice
Blanch your god damn rice in boiling water for 3 minutes
Steam for 10 minutes or until your desired doneness (water spritz if they aren't done after 10)
and do like this anon >>16374595
I don't care whatever you fucks do, can the pan give a sear and made of porous material? yes? then that pan can do fried rice
HOT pan/wok, you fucking bet I mean smoke is whirling outward from the pan/wok
Got lard? USE IT NOW
MAKE THE LARD SMOKE
IN WITH THE RICE
the rice seared in the lard is the basis of fried rice flavour, this is the general technique
no one knows that OP means by "special" because none of us can taste the damn thing
go back to that establishment and ask the cook for seasonings
