Hello and welcome to Jang's food Workshop ?

Yes .

Jam Food Workshop .

No more Oriental .

We took that out .

Yeah ?

Yeah , OK , workshop from now on .

But , um I'm Chin .

I forgot .

I forgot my own name .

I'm Chin and this is my mum .

Hello and welcome .

If you need to channel , we do Chinese takeaway food as well as some traditional dishes .

Which we are gonna be expanding more often , aren't we , Um , today's video is what , Mum ?

Chicken ?

No , it's not .

No , every time I every time number seven number seven going way back to where my auntie used to .

Well , I , I grew up with my aunties , actually number seven .

And anyway , number seven , the lucky number , hugely popular .

We did a live stream of this before , and we're going back through our live streams and , um , just updating them because you lose some important bits of information live streams because we're just literally winging it .

So we want to do them .

And also people keep asking for fried rice .

So it's step by step that we just walk you through , we walk you through , right ?

No .

Hi , Bob .

Anyway , uh , what was I gonna say ?

Oh , this is Chinese .

Take away cooking .

It's fast food .

It's literally Yeah , the McDonald's of the Chinese world .

It's not the best way .

It's the takeaway way .

By all means .

Hate on us for it .

Uh , that's absolutely fine .

It's fine .

And then and then the those people who are saying that normally , um , don't have friends .

So when they comment , people read it and just think , Oh , this guy is an idiot .

I mean , they they I mean , they can comment all they want , and then no one I don't care .

Say what you want .

Um , we are all down to us .

We are real people , real people .

We keep it real .

Yeah , See ?

How did you understand to that ?

Well , you couldn't get a high five Anyway .

We're gonna get on with this chicken fried rice video .

Like I said , it's takeaway .

Um , we use MS G in our videos .

You don't have to use it .

By all means .

Just use extra soy and extra salt .

But there is a lot of MS G naturally occurring in soy sauce .

Chicken fried rice .

Yeah , we're back to chicken fried rice .

Right .

So we have some overnight rice here .

All this is is boiled rice .

We've got a video telling you how to do boiled rice and then leaving it overnight .

You need to cool it down within 90 minutes , put it in a silk container and put it in the fridge overnight .

And all that does is dry it out a little bit .

Um , that means that it doesn't go sco .

You can use it straight from fresh .

A lot of people go on our , um , comments going or use it straight from fresh and it's fine .

I mean , yeah , I mean , by all means , you can use that strip from the pot , but you just get a bit sticky .

Yeah , And it shows that those people don't have a knowledge of cooking in the first place because small things make a huge difference .

It's chemistry .

And that's a fact .

I mean , people can argue what they want .

It just shows that they're complete .

Um , what's the word ?

Yeah , they're wankers .

But anyway , let's , um , show you how to do the prep .

So all we're gonna need is a couple of drops of dark soya .

Yes , just a few drops .

Yeah .

If you think it's not in now , you can add it out later , OK ?

Yeah .

You just add some more in adding it at this stage , Um , is what a takeaway would do .

You don't have to do this at home , but a takeaway adds it here because for convenience , so they don't have to add it when they're busy .

Because it was a big scale compared to your household one .

If you're not a busy takeaway at all , then you probably just add it when you if you're doing literally 7 800 fried rice is a night , this is what they do so and goes , um a dessert spoon of light soy .

This is , uh , about 4 500 grammes of cooked rice , and then you have a quarter teaspoon of salt and a 30 spoon of MS G optional .

And then you mix this in marigold gloves are optional , and what you're doing is you're just trying to mix this all in nicely mixed .

OK , if you if you think you want it darker , you can always .

But as you cook it it it will turn a bit slightly dark , darker , not too much .

I think that's a perfect colour if you want , but , um , if you want it darker , you just add more dark soy .

So that's that .

So what we have here is we have a whole egg with a pinch of salt and a pinch of MS G .

You don't have to put the MS G in if you don't want to .

Um , we have cubed onions , some frozen peas .

This is 80% chicken that we bought from a large supermarket chain .

Most takeaways use 80% chicken .

Now , the 80% is actually water and salt .

What happens is they pump it full of water to make it tender .

That's why you can't replicate it at home very easily unless you poach it .

We have a video for poaching it , but we've actually bought this chicken for you today because it's just quick and easy .

And that's what takeaway foods about , actually .

So if you want to go buy that in your it's frozen .

If you wanna go buy that in your frozen local supermarket , please do .

We have a third teaspoon of MS G and a quarter teaspoon of salt .

And that's all you need .

We are gonna beat this .

Yeah , beat it up .

Yeah , we're gonna beat up .

Beat it .

And what is , uh , mixed together ?

That's all you need .

Obviously , you're gonna need your overnight rice that has been seasoned .

We showed you how to season 500 grammes of it .

You're not gonna need 500 grammes .

This one portion , this will do two portions , but we're gonna do half of it .

So if you want to do the whole 500 grammes , just double up what you see here .

Ah , lastly , not to forget a tablespoon of veg oil .

Yeah , tablespoon of veg oil .

That's for cooking .

All this and one go like I said .

So there's about 60 grammes .

Well , not here , but we use about 60 grammes of this one whole egg .

We use about 100 and 1050 grammes of chicken , about 30 to 40 grammes of peas .

Like I said , if you want to use the whole 500 of this , just double this up , and that's all you need .

So instead of using one tablespoon of oil , you use two tablespoons of oil .

You need two eggs and then double , Double , double .

Yeah , right .

So this is actually the second time we've had to do this now because I didn't press record .

Yeah , new camera .

I know , but anyway , here we go .

So this is nice and hot in goes your onions first .

This is the onion .

Here we come .

Gonna make sure this is not very nice .

And brown .

Nice and brown .

Golden , brown and brown .

Do you remember that sauce ?

Well , it's getting brown now .

Get your chicken The chicken .

Here we come to put all of it .

Yeah , Yeah , Just let it sit in the hot pit .

Who is it by feeling her ?

I always think it was carry on a coconut , but it's not .

I think it is by a a Yeah .

What year , Mum ?

I think it was , uh , what you released in 84 Chart No .

82 84 .

Something like that .

We haven't just researched this from the first time from filming this , have we ?

Anyway , let's get on with the chicken fry rice in goes your peas and at the same time , you put your peas in first , and then you put your seasoning so you want your MS G and your salt , which don't have to use the MS G if you don't want to , don't be a tool and comment below .

So you cut that off nicely , brown the MG a little bit , so 10 to 15 seconds .

And then you add your head , the egg , the beaten egg .

Yeah , and what you're trying to do here is you wanna make a nice little omelette .

This means that you don't get bitty things .

So your egg goes in , you let it sit for a couple of seconds and then you stir like this .

Yeah , and then you let it sit and then you stir Turn it , turn around eyes , not brown eyes .

Bright , bright eyes , is it ?

Turn around .

Bright eyes .

Is that I don't know the word .

Yeah , it's yeah , to the clips on my heart .

Is it to the E clip on my heart ?

So when your egg is done , you wanna add half of your rice of that bowl ?

Like I said before , if you want to do the full amount , you just double up on the ingredients in the bowl .

And then what we do is you constantly knock it cos that softens the rice up as well as break the little chunks you might have up in it .

And it's constant .

So in a Chinese takeaway .

You'll hear the flat and then you hear like , That's what's going on .

I don't get the end of the and you just pretend whoever you don't like No , not really , No .

Yeah , we like everyone .

Yeah , even the peas .

Anyone you don't like is that is your problem .

It's not our problem .

Well , I don't like Donald Trump .

Do you like Donald Trump ?

Then ?

I've never met him .

You could be a politician , Mum .

You could be a poli .

I've never met the guy this has been cooking for .

About how long ?

Five minutes .

No less than five minutes .

About three minutes , about three minutes .

And if you don't do it this way , you don't get those .

If you can find a nice little chunk if you If you put your egg in , cook the rice and then you put your egg in you end up with those bitty little sick eggs .

If you do it the way we tell you to do , how every takeaway will do it , you end up with actual nice chunks of egg .

So this is ready if you flick it , ma like we say before Mum likes to call them maggots when they move around like maggots , then they're ready .

I say when it moves around .

Like like , yeah , not What is it ?

Molasses's sugar , like rich molasses or wet sand is actually better to wet sand like No , obviously it rice .

But so it's now ready .

It's piping hot , and it moves like it's moving here .

Then it's ready .

So we're gonna dish this up .

Yeah .

Mm .

Look at that .

How beautiful , Beautiful , Beautiful .

Rice .

I'm not gonna put chilli on this because this is gonna be for my dad after we eat them .

And Dad cannot handle chilli can .

So , uh , here we go .

We do the taste test and then might meet my dad .

If he's brave enough to say hello .

He's not like me .

No , I'm not on a no , you're not .

No , Not at all .

No , not at all .

Right .

So here we are .

Here's my dad .

Say hello , Dad .

Hello , Dad .

You're not funny .

Um , yeah , You know what , Mom ?

I don't know why I'm introducing this .

Uh , yeah .

So Dad's gonna be eating this .

He's a city fan .

Don't hold that against him and football terms .

And me and Mom are going to try this .

And then that's why we're not putting chilli on the food today .

Yeah , Dad , I get to do it now .

Do the steam normally .

Give that away .

Mm .

Well , I'll get this .

Still I Yeah , not now .

No .

So we'll say bye .

And then we We'll try this ourselves , and then you you can have it afterwards , right ?

Bye .

And , yes , I am half white for those of you , um , wandering out .

So here we go .

We've got a choice .

It's hot .

I do like chicken fried rice .

It's good .

It's chicken fried rice .

What more can you add for it's simple Basic .

If you want more veg , just add the veg exact same time as you put the peas in .

So for those of you out there , it needs sweet corn , or it needs whatever .

Just put it in the same time as the peas .

This is just how most takeaways you do it .

If you want spring onions , you do it at the same time as the onions .

If you put them in a bit later , they tend to not to cook properly .

And you get a raw um , flavour and spring onions can be quite strong when they're raw .

Just like normal onions to Dad did not enjoy this video , did he ?

What do I do with my hand ?

That's your chicken fry rice .

That is your chicken for us .
