Have to love a Chef who takes such delight in massaging chicken. Enjoyable video...Like all of SoW 's presenters so far...Chef Cher is a good instructor.
It's nice to know we really just need to get in there, get our hands dirty just squeezing the chicken. This was priceless. But I guess it just says more about my mental age than anything. I'll be doing this tonight! (The recipe)
Awesome recipe and video on making tasty Thai style chicken fried rice at home. Succulent tender chicken stir fried in a smoky wok Garnished with chopped coriander and spring onion. Looks delicious and authentic with lime. Thank you for sharing!
Interesting, I usually cook the egg after the chicken and before throwing in the rice. Might have to try this and see if that makes a diff. Thai fried rice is the GOAT for me.
Nei how nei how,..Ohh yes,wow,..so amazing & awesome fried rice recipe😋, you did it superb fantastic & yummy too. Thanks for sharing n be connected with you! Love your recipe, Cheers...😍🥰😋☝👍👍
There’s a vegetarian stir fry sauce you can try - it’s made with mushroom extract. Fish sauce is trickier. You need veggie umami - try msg or veggie stock cubes or a mushroom extract powder you get in Asian grocery stores. Dissolve them in soy sauce.
@@inesdelahoya2045 well~ am allergic to sea food so yeah~ but like i was wondering and asking the chef if i can use soy sauce and some other thing maybe? thanks guys for replying :)
@@pranitupadrasta2596 Thanks for ur replay~ well i dont have access to asian ingredients around here~ but yah as i mentioned earlier i was wondering if soy sauce and such can do the trick or like~ mix and match other things (except sea food extracts and such)~ cheers!
@@omario2069 I think if you use a bit of light AND dark soy sauce, some brown sugar and a bit of sweet chilli sauce (some vinegar if you want), then you should still have a tasty sauce :)
Never done so will try it and come back to let you know. Also scared of trying it too. I am new to your channel. I would like you do do Singapore rice please.
I use Canola oil and the smoke point is around 400F and Flash Point is 600 degrees. When you say get your wok hot, how hot are we talking about? When you add the oil do you turn up the heat or lower it? How hot is the oil supposed to be before you add your food? When you do add the food, do you turn it up hi to maintain 400 degrees or higher to get that Wok Hei effect??
Where do we stand concerning how long to marinate chicken? Do we: 1- Not want to marinate for too long. If so, why? 2- Want to marinate it for longer, if possible. 3- Not worry about it, doesn't matter. Can prep ahead or not.
Prolly cuz the rice was cooked too long and the added sauces at the end. Usually, sauce spread to the side of wok to kinda dry it out more then mix. I think cuz he was explaining how to cook made him take longer cooking it. Hence soggy rice. But I bet still will taste good. 😋
@@JKhan1987 The thing abou fried rice dishes that I think a lot of people don't take into account is that it's a comfort dish usually made from left overs. If you had some rice in the fridge it wouldn't be soggy, but since he was demonstrating technique and recipe, they probably made rice just before filming. And the thing also is that if the dish is tasty no matter what it's going to be good. Specially if you've got that sauce he made, different from techniques that sometimes lack in flavour, and go well as a side.
I really, really struggle with fried rice. Cooking rice is hard!! I just can't get the rice to have the texture I want - it is too wet and too mushy or it is too crunchy. I have tried it a dozen times with all the various tips and tricks of different kinds of rice, different water to rice ratios, different cooking & steaming times, different methods of drying the rice after cooking, etc, etc. It makes me crazy!!
So when i'm in town i go past my take aways and just get a container of rice, chuck it in the fridge and make my own fried rice the next day. Problem solved - hope this helps 😅
You're probably cooking the rice via the absorption method (meaning you are cooking a specific amount of rice with a specific amount of water in a pot on a stovetop). You need to look into steaming the rice. Rice cooked via the absorption method is extremely difficult, if not impossible, to make fried rice with. A rice cooker will also work well. And you'll want to spread the rice out after it's cooked and let it dehydrate a bit before making the rice. Once you get the rice prep down, making fried rice is quite easy.
Lol when in Thailand i lost some 😂 kilos cause all the damn oil they use ( goes for other Asian countries aswell ) your stomach keeps active 💩 and the hot weather.
I have very mixed feelings about this guy cause he does an excellent job explaining what he's doing and is clearly very talented but I find him somewhat hard to watch because his voice and physical features don't match right in my head for some reason
As someone with no foundation of cooking and trying to learn, first try was not too bad. It was an easy video to follow. Thank you!
Thx this is the first recipe that made my own fried eice close to the real deal. It makes it more flavourful by preparing the chicken that way.
This is by far one of the best cooking instructional videos I’ve seen good job bro

Thank you chef for sharing your recipe with yummy food 😋 and excellent wok skills 👌. Thank you 🙏.
You know the food is good when the chef is bald
Not sure what's the correlation you were trying to make, but I bet Jeremy will take issue with that.

if i may ask~ what would be an alternative to the fish sauce and oyster sauce...? thanks alot!
I would use anchovies in my Italian pantry. (Just personally, I don’t like oyster sauce, but love fish sauce.)
There’s a vegetarian stir fry sauce you can try - it’s made with mushroom extract.

I hope it goes well! Welcome to the channel! - Lee
Now that I could eat
Absolutely! - Lee
I'm sure that's very good , was wondering shouldn't the rice have some of those crunching fried bits ?
Looks good.
Thanks! - Lee
What kind of oil do you use in the wok?
Vegetable oil! - Chris
Bravissimo 👍
We gettin wocky with this one 🕺🏽
Usually I prefer the fish sauce and chilli served on the side, sometimes you can also add thinly sliced garlic and lime to it also
To each their own! - Lee
Love waching you
fan in canada
Thank you! - Lee
Was the jasmine rice dehydrated prior to frying?
What oil are you using? just normal olive oil or?
When cooking with a wok is best to use high smoking point oils; vegetable, sunflower oil grapeseed and peanut oil are good alternatives. - Yolo
Wow! New sub here! I recently made Hawaiian Chicken Fried Rice on my page too and *your dish looks amazing!* Hope to stay connected! 😀

Can you do Indonesian fried rice 😊

Like it 👍
No basil?
How many does this recipe serve?
I'd say 3-4 people or 2 really hungry people! - Lee

How much fish sauce and oyster sauce.
How much oyster & soy sauce?
Are the eggs optional? I'm allergic and can't have eggs
No, its a criminal offence to leave them off and you could be arrested.
@@FeedMyPostBox sue me I guess 🤷🏾♀️
Yes you could leave them off but not recomended so try egg substitute if not allergic. I fully understand allergies im allergic to black pepper!
You can leave the eggs out, no big deal! - Lee
is that a Ken Hom wok?
It's a School of Wok wok! - Lee
Ooooh yes!!!!!! :-)
You know it! - Lee

Hong Kong Fried rice!
never had fried rice in Bangkok that had carrots in it. Usually has onions and no ginger as far as I can remember.
you forgot to add whole spring onion with the lime
So many TH-cam chefs put their eggs in before the rice… no! Eggs last! Like in this video.
Thai chef with kinda British accent 😗
💜👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Try using jerk chicken, it’s even better.
Sounds like a nice bit of fusion! - Lee
Where are the tomatoes? I've never had Thai fried rice that didn't have tomatoes.
Thank you! - Lee
why is it too soggy?

No Thai Basil 🌿
I knew I could trust him when I saw the cleaver knife. It's unacceptable to chop with anything but a cleaver when making a Thai dish. From a thai
Never had my Chao Pat Gai made that way - weird.
When they speak in the English accident I know that this video is going to be slow and drawn out.
I've spent years in Thailand and have never seen anything like this "gloppy" glue. Not being a downer just a realist. Thanks anyway though. Be safe.
electric stove + wok = really pain.....

Thats horrible. Keep it to yourself, so rude and for what reason?
That’s mean af bro
I am confused with your accent.. and I dont think its the authentic version anyway..
Too much sauce must taste awful
