      I took a Chinese cooking class back in the seventies. The teacher was from mainland China. She had to order our woks and wok spatulas from San Francisco because they were not available here. I still use my carbon steel wok and spatula. She is considered one of the best Chinese cooking teachers in the Washington DC Metro area. Her name is Rebekah Lin Jewel, and her excellent cookbook is The Art of Chinese cooking.

    Kevin, you are so lucky to cook with your dad.
    My mom died of breast cancer, and I tried to get recipes from her, but she just couldn't be specific enough to (a young) me. "You know, some of this" and "add until it 'looks' right" kind of directions; as a lad, I just couldn't "get" it.
    Enjoy your time w/dad. Seriously.

    Love this. Great to see a father and son doing things together like cooking. My husband and son would go golfing together. Makes for great memories and sets the example for the next generation.
    I use this video to make my fried rice and love the result. A similar fried rice dish I also make comes from a coworker from long ago from Picayune, Mississippi. He would use bacon grease as his oil (already changes the flavor profile). Leftovers from a meal (cooked chicken or turkey etc) onion, green pepper, celery (trinity), bacon, tomatoes, and cooked egg. Season with the soy sauce and serve with Louisiana hot sauce. Total bliss!

    I was happy to see the eggs cooked separately, and then added back in later. I have seen so many videos for fried rice where they add the eggs at the beginning, and then just keep adding ingredients to the same wok. There is no way you can avoid overcooking the eggs if they are in the wok the entire time. It is also nice to see Kevin cooking with his Dad. My girls used to love cooking with me when they were little, but now they are 20 something and only want to cook recipes that they find on Buzzfeed, which are usually awful, yet appealing because they are all made "in a cup" or "in a muffin tin." Kevin gives me hope that my daughters may come to their senses in their 30s.😂

    I was so intrigued by this recipe that I ran to the kitchen before the video was even over. I did the meat first, was going to wait the 45 min till I saw the next step, ran again to prepare the marinate, cut the orange, etc. I went back and forth from the living room to the kitchen till I decided to bring my Ipad to the stove. Having not read all the ingredients first, I looked like a Buster Keaton movie, or the Three Stooges, minus two, trying to add all the other ingredients! Not the proper to prepare a recipe. I’ll learn next time to read all the ingredients first, but I was too excited to make your recipe, I couldn’t help myself. I trust you both explicitly to produce mouth watering meals, you’re my new go to for Chinese food.

    Aww, these guys are so sweet. I loved when the son helped his dad lift the heavy wok, and then the dad says "okay thank you".
    At the end, I was worried that the son was going to serve himself first, and then he gave his dad the first plate. I sighed with relief. Even his dad was worried and when he received the plate he pretty much congratulated him on his manners say "oh you're a good son".
    Reminds me of my dad. Maybe it's a generational thing, but my dad would have looked at me weird too if I dared serve myself before him. Gotta love family, and respect the hierarchy.
    Super cute! 🥰
    Also, great tip on using day old white rice! I'm so making this today (minus the meats and mushrooms). I have a 6 year old's food palet, 😆👍

    We're vegetarians, so we usually have tofu for the protein and whatever vegetables are left over in the fridge. We've never cooked the egg first--we'll try that now! Thanks for the tips.

    If you don't have a gas stove, no problem. I have to deal with a flat ceramic stove, don't like it but it doesn't stop me. I use a big non-stick skillet with no problem. Also zucchini is cheap in my area and love the texture of it in this and curries.

    • @trae4529
      @trae4529 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Same here-- flat cooktop and big nonstick skillet ( maybe 14 inches)..... no complaints so far. Would I prefer gas? Yes, I honestly would. But there’s almost always a way to make things work.😊

    • @rockshot100
      @rockshot100 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@trae4529 Yes, agreed. I hate appliances that "do the thinking for you". Nothing like a gas flame, or even the electric coils so you can see for yourself how hot it is. I had to look and look for a coffee maker without a computer. My washing machine decides to run itself randomly, with no clothes. But as you say, we make due.

    Just made my first ever batch of fried rice using this video as guidance. Turned out GREAT!!! So amazingly easy. Used leftover stir fry veggies, some smoked turkey sausage, mushrooms and, of course, eggs and cold rice. This makes a very satisfying meal and would be great to take to work for lunch or for a healthy afterschool snack for kids. Just pop in the microwave to warm up. This will definitely be my next day meal after making a stir fry dinner the night before. Thanks for the tip about oyster sauce, Kevin. I'll have to get some next time I go shopping.

    I like the logical progression of the ingredients being prepped and added. I've never had the Chinese dried mushrooms, but they won't be hard to find in San Francisco.

      They're not hard to find in Arizona either. I'm 40 miles from the nearest Asian grocery store, but found them locally at Sprouts.

      i even find them at Lucky's.
      in SF's Chinatown they sell them loose and they're less expensive. buy a bunch, they keep forever.

    I Taught myself to make fried rice by trial and error. Turns out I make it almost exactly like you do. My trick I tell everyone is to make everything separately to perfection, then blend it all together at the end . Keeping things as dry as possible. The only thing I do different is I use seasoned well browned or grilled pork chops, pork steak or cubes. I place the crumbled eggs and steamed broccoli on top, Presents well. I love your recipe as well. Thank you!
