This is basically our MSG

This is the most beautiful woman on the earth

It's been a good run Nigella

but Uncle Roger found new favorite female chef

Uncle Roger recovering from food poisoning haiya

Feel so weak

So weak!

Now I know how lactose intolerant niece and nephew feel when they drink milk

Have you ever had diarrhea so bad you have to retile bathroom wall?

Hi I'm Esther, I'm a professional chef

And these are my $242 fried rice ingredients

Fuiyoh

$242? That more expensive than Uncle Roger kidney

What is this? Is this for the last supper or something haiya

It too much

Egg fried rice so simple, 3 ingredient

Egg, fry and rice

Niece Esther think money grow on tree

Hi, I'm Gabi, I'm a home cook

And these are my $13 fried rice ingredients

OK that more like it

13 dollar, still too expensive, but that better

Not again

We got this

So they gave the home cook expensive ingredient

And they gave professional chef cheap ingredient

Uncle Roger thinks skill matter more than price

So I gonna focus on this niece Esther

Because she say she professional chef

But we all know, niece and nephew

Professional chef got big range

Are you like Uncle Wang Gang level

Or Mr chili jam?

Where do you find this?

Where do you find that?

The sea

It a fucking crab

What's really important about fried rice

Is having everything ready

So that when you're cooking it

Correct

It's super, super fast

We're gonna use the entire shrimp

The shrimp head actually is one of the best parts

Uncle Roger say it before

I love head

And shrimp head good also

I like how niece Esther handling the shrimp without even using glove

That how you know egg fried rice good

When you raw dog your seafood

So many things that you can do with it

Gabi was probably just gonna use the shrimp bodies

As the meat to quickly saute into her rice

You're gonna be wasting a lot of the other great parts of the shrimp

Okay

We're just gonna have to devein the shrimp

Good, good

Because this is where the bodily wastes live

Shrimp weins is like Jamie Oliver

Full of shit

Emotional damage!

We're gonna be making a shrimp stock

that I'm gonna be cooking my rice in

Shrimp stock, good

It's just gonna elevate the rice

It's gonna give a nice base

Very smart idea

Use shrimp stock to cook your rice better than using water

So Gabi gave me scallions and garlic to use in the recipe

I'm just gonna use the scraps for the stock

Give a quick smash to the garlic

Correct

And what this does is releases some aroma

Haiya

If you throw in whole garlic in broth

Then the skin on that okay

But you already peel the skin of

Why you throw garlic skin in there, niece Esther? haiya

This broth, not bin

So my shrimp stock has been going for about half an hour

Oh collinder, haiya

On the shrimp shells to extract

Think they doing this on purpose to torture Uncle Roger

So I have my shrimp heads

which I'm gonna be doing two different things with it

I'm gonna be making a shrimp oil and a shrimp paste

She really making use of all part of shrimp, that good

And shrimp heads that are super crispy

We're gonna be making a beautiful shrimp paste

I don't throw anything out, maximize maximize maximize

She don't throw anything out?

Marie kondo must hate this woman

Now it's time to make our shrimp paste

Shrimp paste good

Pestle and mortar, fuiyoh!

I feel like it's very underutilized in the kitchen

Correct

It releases so much flavor and it's so fun to use

That very good pounding

See, nephew Nick?

This is how you pound

Not your weak ass stirring motion

I'm gonna add two cloves of garlic

Alright, getting a workout today

I feel like instead of just using garlic in the fried rice

Maybe making a garnish with it

So I'm gonna be making garlic chips

Garlic chips a bit extra, but I guess it okay

Slice it thin on the mandoline

If you go too slow, then you're gonna cut yourself

If you go too fast, you're gonna cut yourself

Haiya too slow cannot, too fast also cannot

That the same complaint as Auntie Helen

It's ready

So at this point, we're gonna take it out

Nice, look good

Maybe salt it a bit also

How can I not

Perfect

Okay so time for the rice

The most important part

Hence, it's fried rice

Chef Esther was kind enough to

WHAT

Prepare the rice for me

So I gifted Gabi cooked Koshihikari rice that's a day old

You cannot just give her rice

Three indgrident

Egg fire and rice

You give her rice, you give her a third of the egg fried rice haiya

Might as well give her the whole egg fried rice

Why bother asking her to cook?

Gabi sent me probably your most common rice that you'll find

in your local supermarket

and in this case we're gonna do two cups

Jasmine rice okay

Wash my rice multiple times

But I think I'm just gonna give this one a rinse

Cause it's not too starchy

Haiya, you have restaurant but you can't afford rice cooker?

Why?

This is my trick when I do it at the restaurants

Spread it out on a sheet tray and let it kind of dry out like that

Ah very smart

Because niece Esther don't have day old rice

She have to make rice now

So she dry it off on baking sheet to simulate the dryness of day old rice

Good tip, good tip

Clearly, Gabi didn't send me much vegetables to work with

Good, good, that good

Because vegetable taste like sad

Don't eat them

If you want to be healthy

Just go exercise

Fuck vegetable

It's okay, we're gonna still maximize

The scallions, I'm actually gonna use in two different ways

With the whites, I'm actually gonna use to kind of flavor the oil

when I cook the fried rice

Good, smart

And the greens I'm gonna use as a topping

Little milder

That slant slicing

That very fancy

So I'm slicing these on a long bias

Because

At the restaurant we like to call this sexy scallion

Oh, sexy scallion

That gonna be Uncle Roger drag queen name

Because I slim, slender and go well on top of anything

Cause it can get a little slimy

and it also like perks it up

Now for the jalapeno

What, what?

Jalapeno for egg fried rice? That Mexican

You making egg fried rice, not egg fried burrito
