- Fried Rice at Ming Court Wanchai - Ingredients: Foie Gras, Wagyu Beef, Spring Onion, Purple Onion, Chinese Celery, Beans, Egg White, Egg Yolk, Fried Garlic, Rice, Secret Barbecue Sauce
It always fascinates me watching chefs working the wok, it's so hot so things cook really fast and more surprisingly I haven't really seen any chefs taste their food, I think because they did it so many times they know by the time, color or smell if the food is right or not.. amazing.
He’s a sifu nam sayin
@@CupContender hahahahah
You get to the point where you know roughly how much seasoning for one serving by eye. Salt and heavy while sugar is much lighter by volume.
I think their ancestor cooking spirit whispered in his ear "enough for the salt..." ; and he stops. :P
everytime u see a chef, he is on camera
The colors in the kitchen make it so pleasant and calm lol
yay you are in Hong Kong now, looks forward to more Hong Kong food video
For 46$ you better scoop the rest of that rice into the bowl! 😆 🤣
Hahaha
ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 😂🤷♀️
Serve with that wok pan
@@sansworld which hopefully you can take home after you’ve finished
@@discovery91 👍😂
yeah, it's just stupid at this point, people have too much money to spend and dont know what to do with it anymore, incredible.
Parabéns... Vcs são nota mil.... Murdhock de Guarulhos SP Brasil
He treated that fried rice like it was 46 dollars at the end. So carefully eaten.
as one should for anything delicious. I can't stand people scarfing down gourmet food. Might as well eat trash if you're gonna swallow it in 5 seconds. There's a difference to eating for enjoyment and eating for sustenance. No different to gulping down $100 wine. You can gulp $5 wine just the same why pay more and bypass savouring.
😛
46 Hong Kong dollars is about 6 euros, US dollars.
@@szendreimihaly1986 The bill showed 338HKD. $46 is USD.
It also had foie gras and wagyu. Would’ve probably been even more expensive in the states
Love watching the technique
Love your content!
The person paying $46 for this fried rice doesn't care about the Wagyu beef or foie gras. They only care about telling their friends and social media that they paid $46 for fried rice.
And?
bla bla bla
Take sometime off social media my guy
I love fried rice , and I would honestly pay $46 jut to try
Go spend 46 bucks on a new piece of mind man
This is probably the longest I’ve ever seen someone fry rice. I would love to try it.
I was thinking the same thing.
If the fire is on all the time while he stir it, the rice would not be edible, it will be tough as rock
Imagine he had to wok 100 per day. If the steam rice cook perfectly then he would have less work
@@odjsjaks if u truly think that then u dont know how to cook lol
All these videos by expert chefs make me hungry. Hats off!
I would try it considering the work he puts into it.
He really turn that fried rice into FRIED rice
yeah I noticed that too.
What?
😅
Look at that signature knee kick to the knob. That's how a experienced Hong Kong chef does
incredible!
thats one of the cleaniest kitchens I have ever seen.
Un bellissimo piatto👍👏
Wow amazing food tour 💓 thanks for the effort you put in this video really enjoyed watching 👍
Haven't been in Hong Kong in 3 years due to Covid. I miss the food. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for the video! It worth every grains of rice....looks delicious.
Fried Rice with chicken is still some of the best food-to-go that you can get to this day.. So fast and delicious aswell.
Yes.. but treat yourself once in a while with gourmet food such as this.. wagyu, lobster and/or foie gras is simply divine.. good quality truffle as well. Expensive caviar and edible gold is where i draw the line.. never got to taste genuine saffron so i dunno if the price is justified
@@zenmaster8826 >but treat yourself once in a while
>wagyu, lobster and/or foie gras is simply divine
yo who the FUCK has that kind of money on this economy? I cant even find a job to pay the bills bro and your talking bout lobster wagyu and shit i cant even spell......
@@maoduida387
It doesn’t have to be food..nor does it have to be expensive.. but afford yourself some luxury in a stressful world otherwise you’ll go crazy… Treat yourself to one of your guilty pleasures once in a while.. you deserve it.
My guilty pleasure is food..😄
I don't know ya'll. Expensive fried rice is maybe only marginally better than properly cooked fried rice. I've had $12 fried rice and $80 fried rice but I barely remember the $80 one ( I just remember how much it cost!)
once you eat pishori, its a type of rice. The rest will pale in comparison
Absolutely, you hit it on the nail matey.
Fun fact : Fried rice is originally a leftover dish; you fried the rice which you cooked too much the day before with whatever is in the fridge.
Have a good day.
nah you just got scammed by the 80dollar rice.
if you live in china, fried rice made by the street restaurant vs the one in the high end palace restaurants, even with the exact same fried rice it will be night and day.
@@ahlapski actually many high end restuarants use freshly cooked rice to make fried rice because leftover rice lost some of its aroma and flavor. The chef usually uses less water to cook the rice though.
Have u eat over $200 fried rice?
Great techniques.
Welcome to HK and hope you enjoy your stay!
I'll order this fried rice next time when I am in town.
for $46? 😂😂
@@christian-zs8uy yo he showing the ingredients and how to cook it, might as well make one at home.. maybe he wants the real vibe tho
The wonderful thing about Aden is how his films have no commentary - besides the gaze of the camera work, so to speak. It really allows the atmosphere of the restaurants and kitchens to breathe.
💯
That cooking set up with the double domed stainless geometry is expensive to build... and how it goes to that linear drain... someone said we are going to make the perfect cooking station and we will spare no expense....
Beautiful serving bowl at the end.
But the chef is the best part.... amazing skills and to see him manhandle that large wok with not much leverage and a small cloth.... thats like Bruce Lee level tendon strength.... What a great video..
This guy is a master
all you have to know the secret ingredient for this rice was chicken powder haha!
Is there any particular brand you like the most? Lee kum kee?
@@dioricergy6931 Knorr
@@JC-wf8iw Knorr's chicken powder is more for chicken stock, hot pots etc..
If you want real chicken powder then grab some Ko-Lee, they do instant noodles but they also do the chicken powder sachets. I've used them in both noddles and fried rice and it's absolutely gorgeous🤤
@@dioricergy6931 try Lee Kuan Yew
Glad to see Quang Tran doing ok these days, “QUICKTIME! That’ll be $46 my guy! Hahaha 😃 “
"food and money is a beautiful thing, dont you think?"
He was super pumped to make the fried rice
Lmao 🤣🤣
Order 69 your order is ready my g
holy shit my name is Quang Tran. How do you know me?!?
Worth every penny!
Sohai
I would like to try it
there are families of four that eat for a whole month for 46 dollars here in Brazil, and interestingly enough, their diet consist of most of the ingredients in this fried rice: rice, beans, eggs and common vegetables - with luck some ground beef once a week
You left out the wagyu beef and foie grois, the two most expensive ingredients lol.
Come to the conclusion.
@Jas Zho when I go to India I prefer to eat the street food real food what the locals eat I have been to the expensive restraunts all it
Is is the decor presentation the food is no where as tasty as the cheap stuff what the majority treat themselves too
@@andrewooi82 see, i thought they were peas too at first cuz i was on mobile, but blowing it up in 4k on a computer and i dunno man... that's a fucked up looking pea. any idea what kind of pea that would be? looks like the green end of green onions to me still... or maybe even like tiny little chops of haricot verts. not tryin to argue about it, just tryin to learn something new or figure out if im crazy.
@@egoomega Americans would call it peas I think but in actual fact he's using a kind of long green bean or type of French bean. They are usually chopped up like that if used in fried rice. Not common to blanch for fried rice as you can usually cook as is but blanched greens beans usually look brighter or so they say.
Edit: yes could also be haricot verts.
The way he's working that wok is kinda mesmerizing lol
I’m not sure about his wok, the oil seems to be pearling (gathering in droplets and rivulets) like the wok is not properly seasoned?
Sensational
Chef:Ok! Thats $50!
TH-cam:With some ingredients that fell... $46 its is!
Yeah thata weird right? Where the heck did $46 come from? It was $50.
But that rice with service charge was actually $47.4, the rest is for the tea.
5$ for the ingredients
45$ for buying next gallon of cooking oil.
0.5 $ for cooking.
0.25 $ for serving presentation.
0.25$ for ther chef for standing and supporting him throughout the process.
he used Wagyu and foie gras, I doubt you can get the ingredients for $5.
Artist ❤
that climax was everything
You scared the hell out of that guy in the hat at the end 😅
I love the sound of those infernal wok burners.
Sounds like a dragon taking a puke.
Tender-loving care fried rice to appeal to the gastronomic palate!
yummy 😋
The rice was cultivated on mars.
You can tell the person at the end freaked out a little 😄
美味そう～
0:27 is that the lookout/security keeping six incase someone tried to steal the fried rice?
We need @Uncle Roger to review this!! 😃😃
You can laugh about the price and all that as much as you want - I am happy to see this, I would have always been curious what's the difference to demand this amount of money. Thank you for showing!
its the wagyu beef
Considering there is Wagyu and Foie Gras in it, the price isn't that crazy.
@@Mjhavok there's very little wagyu and foie gras in that clay pot. the star ingredient in fried rice is rice, not the meats.
@@EightCore Noone grinds wagyu unless they scammin
Never had Wagyu beef Patties?
Hongkong food quality is amazing.
I luv their roast goose…….
I think I would like to come and join Aden for a food crawl next time I visit HK.
It's really hard to make perfect FRIED RICE even though it looks so simple. The general principle is to keep it hot, avoid adding water which can cool the food and stirring it a lot so it doesn't stick and burn.. 🧑🍳
It is easy. Don’t get misled. The key point is to have a strong and professional stove! That’s it.
It's... extremely easy. Just remember two things: don't add random things in there and use overnight leftover rice
@@tinggu1506 True👍
Which planet you come from where people add water to fried rice?
stirring a lot is essential technique to remove the moisture and make it fluffy and dry, lose, not wet and sticky.
I make lots of fried rice, but I didn't know making a fancy fried rice would require some extra tools, bit of xtra steps, fire controls and oil. That is indeed one proper looking rice, a respectful one, and I wont add other opinion about the price as it isn't the point xD
I love fried rice...
hypebeast of fried rice.
I love these hellish portals they use in asia for cooking. Like i'm just waiting for frodo to throw the one ring into that thing xD
its only in restaurants and certain rural areas in china, though i do wish we all had it lol
Best way I’ve heard that described
It's a jet engine from a F35
No BBQ sauce was used in this video. It's normally light and dark soy sauce used. Maybe sometimes uses mushroom soy sauce along with XO sauce.
Bravooo 👏👏👏
What was the beige powder he added towards the end?
Pretty sure what makes this high end fried rice is the foie gras and wagyu. I'm not sure if wagyu retains its signature fattiness when you cook it in small cuts like that, however.
definitely not
Yeah with regular ingredients it's probably a 15 dollar fancy from the technique.
Why would somebody use an expensive beef for fried rice? They could just use ground pork, right?
Wagyu and Foie gras is a white thing. Try sharkfin, birdness and abalone.
@@canhandletruth Wagyu is definitely from Japan, but unless there was something on captions that I had turned off I didn't know what any of the ingredients were I imagine the comment you're responding to was just guessing.
I mean, does shredded wagyu meat taste much better than an shredded usual meat?
Not at all
You can hardly tell the difference. It does have slight difference in texture and stronger beef aroma, but you won't notice the difference while eating fried rice.
You can't even tell the difference of fresh and overnight ingredients while eating fried rice, much less a wagyu and normal beef.
the wagyu gets lost in the sea of rice, and it was cooked separately, so the beef flavor was never incorporated into the rice anyways.
@@cyclopsvision6370 i commented the answer of your question. but i will just copy paste it again here : do you know why meat is cooked for just few seconds? because chef would cook it AGAIN together with rice. the result is tender and chewy not hard and burnt like some amateur who attempted to cook asian fried rice with meat in it.
@@cyclopsvision6370 usually i use half cooked meat method for cheaper ingredients like boneless chicken breast or bit expnsive one like goat meat for middle eastern style. that way, meaty flavor will seep through the rice.
yum..
Yup. Wow.
Yo~ Ming Court is a Michelin 3 star bistro, the $46 price tag is unsurprising
It has foie gras AND wagyu. $46 is about right.
@@thaloh It's ground wagyu. You can get that for like 6 bucks a lb at Sams club lol. Even if it was a Japanese A5 wagyu steak cut up into bits, he's using like 2 ounces, which would be like ~10 bucks at most. Add in 2 ounces of foie gras for like 5 bucks and that's 15 bucks worth of ingredients he's using at the most. I'd say realistically it's only like 10 bucks though plus 36 for the prestige.
HK$ 46 is only us$5 you need to say what $ it is
@@PoolamRules if you gonna breakdown every ingredients by cost in every meal, you’ll never be dining out again.
@@Albion101 honestly most restaurants dont have this kind of margin. Only high end ones. But just the guy i responded to seems to think cause they are "high end" ingredients, it must be expensive. But I'm just saying he is using so little of it, it still doesnt cost much.
I'm surprised he didn't fry the plate.
This is a top master
thank you
My parents would kill me if I told them I payed 46 dollars for fried rice😂😂. They would say I wasted $46 when I can get it free at home😅
Better you delete this 😤
realistically you paid 5$ for the fried rice and 40$ for the wagyu and 1$ for the tea lol
we make the high end fried rice at our store too. the different is we use a different soy sauce and we put alittle of it so u can taste all the union, green union and the beef on it. but our price is at 30 not 46
What type of cooking oil is the best to use when making fried rice? Vegetable oil, lard, or sesame oil, etc.
@@pheddupp lard definitely, maximum flavour minimum amount needed and until recent times was the go to choice in nearly every culture, sesame should never be cooked with as it's far to delicate so you garnish with it like spring onions, use rapeseed for a good fried flavour if you need options.
@@pheddupp honestly for me i use soybean oil. i use it at work and home. and dont use sesame oil the smell of sesame overkill the fried rice taste
@@MsKristy1001 Thanks for responding to my question, I will use soybean oil as well.
what is the name of your store?
Ok…I’m just here for the fried rice…and some tea of course 🤷🏻♂️ 😁
Ty
It takes four times time more than regular fired rice, that's why it worths four times more. Separating yolk and white is the key to enhance the aroma of fried rice, but takes more time to cook.
It’s four times more because it has wagyu beef. That’s the main reason
It costs 4 more because it uses 100x the amount of gas
LOL...the title should be "Overpaying for an $8 dollar fried rice"!
I don’t like your profile picture
Read the ingredients
Nah mate not overpaying you just poor
What did he add at 5:09? White pepper powder?
Most of the wok masters I've seen bring all ingredients with the spatula, and only the rice portioned out. Looks cooler to me
the only reason this High-end fried rice cost $46 with these Low-end ingredients, is because it's in Hong Kong.
Capitalism in its finest
Amazing. I'd pay $10 for it.
even less
what did he add at 5:05? it looks like white pepper.
Honestly
He took so much time to work on those flips
Perhaps the high $46 was also chefs' fee for allowing him in the kitchen filming lol!
Yeah, you throw in expensive ingredients and it becomes expensive. The fried rice itself is relatively common
I'm not saying it's worth it but not all rices are common or have the same price, obviously. But again, fried rice indeed doesn't need fancy rice. That's the spirit of this dish.
The ingredients aren’t expensive.
Pretty standard way for cooking a good fried rice
Beautiful kitchen.
What is the restaurant called
Ming Court
So it’s the foie gras and wagyu that make it $46? I guess…as long as the wagyu isn’t overcooked or something.
No. It's the rent.
$20 rent
$6 the gimmick of having wagyu and foie gras in it
$10 actual cost of the wagyu and foie gras
$10 cost of a typical "decent" fried rice
Just kidding. Perhaps $15 rent, and put the remaining $5 into Chef's skill. That was pretty well done.
Uncle Roger has to see this. 😀
Agree with you Uncle Roger does me to see this.
I already see in my head how this is going lmao. Trash the fancy foie gras and little ass wagyu for the entire duration of the video but praise the wok skill of the chef lol.
He ain't allowed in hong kong
Looks just like any fried rice, what's so special about it? (other than the foie gras and waguy beef)
Damn, that's a fierce dragon!
Had the same fried rice look from my office back alley for 3.80, with free ice lemon tea 😅
with Foie Gras and wagyu Beef?
I Can't Wait for Uncle Rodger to react to this one.
Thought the same thing 😂
Wonder what the chef putting in 5:08 (MSG) 6:38 (Chili flake) ??
this guy is the master of getting ripped off. respect
Chinese food is the most sophisticated food on the planet. It takes so much skill to produce good wok hei. Let alone timing on every ingredient add at the exact moment it needs to be added. Way to many variables to dive into. I’m a white guy that loves this style of cooking and have worked in a lot of French kitchens. The last 27 plus years experience in the kitchen wok cooking takes the cake in all categories of different cuisine. This type of cooking is an art hands down.
You got it right! Respect to the Chinese. Btw it particularly the Cantonese dishes that's the epitome of food art.
No doubt !
@@waterfoker8558 please try some Huai Yang cuisine as well
Sofisticato??? questa è la cosa più assurda che ho letto oggi. La vera cucina è quella Italiana che viene copiata in tutto il mondo. Ce la invidiate tutti
Requires a lot of coordination, especially when the on/off lever for the heat is at his feet 7:03.
係人都知道好食既炒飯肯定係大排檔啦….酒店炒飯屬於搞笑性質，上到檯都涼曬
God seeing this reminds me how much i suck at wok tossing when i make egg fried rice i always share with the kitchen floor
400块一碗，哈哈，看上去还不错。改天我去尝尝。
The noise of the wok being taken off that flame is like a dragon. So impressive.
Need uncle roger's approval!!
nice
Why use a soup spoon for eating rice?
