I just wanted to say, this came out an hour before I needed to make dinner, and we where in a bit of a pinch. We had some left over cooked rice, a tiny piece of Christmas ham, a few stray carrots, onion, garlic, 1 egg and one package of ramen chicken seasoning and a tiny bit of frozen peas. Your recipe came at the PERFECT time and I cooked everything up following how you showed here, and let me say, it was the best dang fried rice I have EVER had. It was better then what we get at our local restaurant. In fact it was so well received in the house hold that I am making it again tonight, right now
YAAAYYY!!! 👏🏼 This is exactly how to use this recipe. Just follow the basic techniques (cold rice) and suggestions (chicken powder) and then tailor it for your situation - well done!
I just want to say that your enthusiasm for cooking and honesty about struggles encountered when trying new recipes is such a breath of fresh air. I found you when searching for ways to make Dragon's Beard and your video definitely made it possible and it turned out great. Thank you so much for all that you do!
Hey Emmy, idk if you read these but o wanted to thank you. I’ve had three car wrecks, all within two months of each other, and two that were six days apart. After the last one, I had a double concussion, and it was just one point away from being moderate brain damage. I was in a really, really dark place after that. Processing things was hard, getting out of bed was hard, living my life was hard. But you came across my UA-cam homepage, and I just... I can’t explain it, but your videos, the way you talk, it made me feel like everything was going to be okay. And I know you’re just a food UA-camr, but you gave me a topic to talk about with my friends, an interest to practice/research, and you kinda catalyzed my recovery. Like I said, I know I’m just a stranger on the internet, but I wanted to thank you.
Also, I think you should make more of these "toss" dishes where you have a main ingredient and then just improvise with pantry stuff - I suspect people need this right now tbh.
To me ,the versatility of this meal is what makes it so appealing. When I was younger my mom always made me fried rice. She would put in whatever she had leftover in the fridge and this would change each time she made it. Comfort food at its best. Thanks for sharing Emmy
winter months always make my depression hit harder. I love cooking but summoning the energy for it sometimes is an impossible task, and fried rice has always been a favourite of mine. you couldn't have uploaded this at a better time!
I can't help but reminisce about watching the candy tasting videos Emmy filmed in Japan more than a decade or so ago. I think about where I was in life back then, what were my worries, problems or happy moments. Then I come back to the present moment and think about how much has changed, how much I've grown, how Emmy's life has changed too. It's nice :)
I make Spam Fried rice every morning for my Breakfast. Very Good thank you Emmy for the recipe. Really enjoy your channel wouldn't miss even one video of yours
In Hawaii, when they make Spam fried rice, they marinate the spam in sugar and shoyu solution and then caramelized the spam in the pan to add to the rice. So good!
Emmy, I need you to know that your videos are some of the few that consistently make me feel like things are or will be okay. Whether personal strife or the horrors we're facing as a country and a globe, your videos are so genuine and it feels like we're old friends, sitting in your kitchen as you share recipes and anecdotes. I just needed you to know that you are appreciated, and one day when things are better than normal, I'd love to take you and your family out to dinner here in Philadelphia for some greasy, deliciously unhealthy but gloriously authentic cheesesteaks.
When my girls were young, at least once a week I used Ramen noodles or rice and added leftover bits of meats and vegetables from dinners! I had one container in the fridge for all miscellaneous vegetables that weren't enough for another meal, so it would have maybe 1/2 cup of broccoli, handful peas etc. Then another container for protein which might have 1/2 pork chop, a hot dog, bit steak etc. This was always the kids favorite lunch! Happy New Year All! May 2021 be more peaceful and healthy!
Emmy! My 9 year old daughter is being homeschooled this year, we love cooking and she is getting more and more independent. I watched this video last week by myself before randomly realizing she’d be able to figure it out herself with your help! I love your videos and I know she will too! You are so real, and sweet. My mom made this for us as kids too, usually ham and scrambled eggs, and mixed veggies.
I saved this video as soon as Emmy posted it cuz I knew it was going to be easy to follow, delicious and I love fried rice! Gotta Love Emmy!! I still say she needs her own Food Network show because of how easy she is to follow & how well she describes things. You can really understand its texture and flavor like you are tasting it with her! How they havent picked her up yet is bewildering! Keep up the awesome work Emmy, you rock!
@@emmymade Do you no longer have the old emmymade channel, then? (You said crafts & other non food stuff, I think. I subscribed, but forgot to look at it.)
Ahhh I love your pep! I’m making this tomorrow for the children at the day care I work at! There will be minus a few ingredients as well as some added just to make certain the children with allergies do not get ill! Thank you so much!
My best friend is from Hawaii, and when I went to visit her and her family a few years ago her mom taught me to make spam fried rice - it’s a staple there. Ever since it’s my go-to weekday dinner, and I’ve even converted a bunch of my New England friends who used to be deeply suspicious of Spam 😄 It’s SO good
I just made this this morning…it was so good! I’ve always made fried rice my Mom’s way: frying everything together in a pan and using soy sauce but the bouillon and sesame oil really makes the difference.
I use the rest of the eggshell to retrieve broken shells. For some reason the broken piece goes right over to the other piece of shell and you just scoop it out.
Thank you so much for the idea of chopping up your green onions when you first get them. Every single time I have bought them they end up going bad on me because I don't use them fast enough. And your idea about chopping them up and put them in a container is the perfect answer for me. I made my first veggie fried rice today and it turned out really good I didn't have green onion but I certainly will the next time thank you so much for the video
Here in Spain we have a rice recipe very similar to this one. It is called "arroz tres delicias" and everyone makes it when they don't feel like cooking a lot 😅. You can even find it in the frozen food section at the supermarket!
Oh man ! This looks soooo yummy ! This is going on my "hurry up" to do list. When I re-oil the pan, right before I add the rice, I sprinkle a little bit of five spice to flavor the oil, and man is it tasty 😋 Thanks 4 making me hungry....love your channel ❤️
Tip from my old grandma here in the UK, if you drop a piece of shell into anything, use the left over shell to get it back out again😀 no more playing chase the shell round the bowl... Love your channel, we have gone back Into our 3rd lockdown in the UK and its worse than ever outside, so as a vulnerable person who is not allowed out the house at all currently I have watched nearly all of your videos over this year! So thank you so much. Totally think you should do a book or TV program called " my lovelies" would totally buy that!
When I was a kid, before school, one of the meals my mom would cook up was a really quick fried rice, with eggs, onions and garlic. I loved it so much that I'd request it sometimes. My version, I do add spam, shrimp, eggs, green onions, onions, garlic, and add in about a quarter bag of frozen veggies containing carrots, peas and corn. Instead of salt like my mom's, I use oyster sauce. I'll need to try yours... it does look so yummy!
When you make the version with soy sauce, do you add any other seasonings? My Japanese grandfather taught me to make fried rice when I was a kid. He'd use leftover rice, shoyu, a bit of fish sauce, eggs, ham, peas & carrots, a small drizzle of sesame oil and top it off (in the bowl) with a few good shakes of furikake.
One of my favorite memories growing up was coming down for breakfast and marveling at big pile of fried rice my mom cooked and comparing it to a mountain. It was always a favorite of my brother and I! Thank you for another great video emmy!
You can really do a lot with fried rice. I make a curry cheese fried rice that's a hit with the family. Rice, minced lamb, curry powder, garlic, onions, salt pepper, beef bullion powder, a bit of sweet soy sauce keca manis, green peas and cubed cheddar cheese(the cheap Kraft kind). Really really delicious when you're bored with the regular fried rice.
Hi Emmy! I made fried rice yesterday (2 Jan as well!) and I had some left-over char siu pork I made because I was going to make some steamed buns. Our recipes are very similar, except I seasoned my eggs with fish sauce (the Thai side of me). I didn't think about using using the chicken powder seasoning, I just sprinkled some Ajinomoto over the top instead. I'll try it with the chicken seasoning next time!
I am making fried rice and eating while watching this. We use white long grain rice (Carolina Brand), we use soy sauce and sesame oil too but I was intrigued that you used Knorr Chicken broth, we don't use it too since we often use chicken in our fried rice. I love that you used Spam, I have never thought of using Spam for fried rice, yours looks so good. I wanna try it!
Uncle Roger gonna roast you for not using a wok 😹 However, using the chicken bullion powder might be acceptable for MSG substitution. I just noticed that emmy didnt add any garlic and ginger. Its a classic egg fried rice ingredient but can be omitted i guess?
If you don't have cooked rice on hand, I've found browning/frying dry rice before steaming works just as well, keeps grains individual, also adds some toasty flavor 👍
I appreciate that the more abrasive sounds are subdued (like scraping sounds, blender sounds, etc). As someone with sensory overload, it's refreshing to hear. ❤️❤️❤️
I made some tonight, with very little chicken and some peas and carrots. I added a little butter to the cooking too and, a small amount of sesame oil, I added soy sauce! Yummy!!
Definitely going to follow your tip on cooking the eggs separately, I always have a cakey mess when I add eggs to everything! You've convinced me too, I'm going to make fried rice for dinner tonight!
I made this night before last before seeing this video. I made it exactly the same, using leftover rice, leftover spam, the same veggies, even down to the drizzle of sesame oil. I had the Knorr chicken bullion but didn’t know that trick. However, I did use soy sauce. Glad to see my cooking skills live up to Emmy’s. Delicious! Thanks, I needed that validation.
I was stressing that you weren't using a bigger pan/wok. Lol. Loving the name change. We do it vegan, of course, and use mushroom seasoning for our umami. Happy New Year Emmy!!
Interesting. Looks yummy. Got a couple chores to finish before settling back down to watch.... Happy New Year Or, as a friend said recently, *hopeful* New Year! To those who welcome such wishes
"I will not smile when Emmy signs off..." "I will not smile when Emmy signs off..." "I *will not smile* when Emmy signs off..." ------------- "Take care, toodloo, byyyyyyeeeeee!" 😊😊😊😊😊😊 "Aaargh!"
Me every single time, even when I’m in a terrible mood.... she makes me smile. So nowadays when I’m in a terrible mood, I go check a video or two with her xD
I learned a great trick with the green onions/scallions.... lop off the base and put them upright in some water, and they grow new stems you can use. I stuff paper towels into a short glass and put the onion bases between the glass and paper and add water. Those rooty scraps will make you fresh onions. Romain lettuce too! I'm now trying it with a bok choy base.
Ginger is optional but it needs some chilis. They are not optional in Southeast Asia. Garlic is mandatory. We would add a dash of fish sauce too. Phom chob Khao Pad Moo.
Yum!!! I love seeing your recipe Emmy! I also use egg and spam the most often in my fried rice! I fry the spam, then fry garlic and green onions in my oil to flavor the oil, throw in rice and coat it in the garlic scallion oil, then add soy sauce to flavor and throw in the eggs. I also love to squeeze kewpie mayo over it in my bowl, it’s really good!
I'd never had it before, and then I had it on a fried rice breakfast bowl. I was an immediate believer in the power of Spam. It goes so well with everything in this dish.
We season our fried rices the same! Good to know others use the chicken bouillon, white pepper and touch of sesame oil! Best combo! I also do a touch of liquid aminos. Yum.
Hi Emmy just incase you don't know, when you get a piece of egg shell in your eggs, it can be easier to get it out using the larger egg shell part to scoop it up. For some reason the shell attracts the other peice of itself.
Emmy! I just wanted to thank you for posting this. I made fried rice with some leftover roast meat today following your recipe and it was so easy to make a really, really, tasty fried rice. It's not meant to be complicated, but the way you broke it down just made it somehow so much easier to learn and remember the steps :) Thank you
hi emmy! i love fried rice too. i make either my family recipe with spam, or my own version with cilantro. i was looking at ways to hack my recipe and stumbled on your video. i learned a few tips from you so thanks for that. my gramma's recipe adds the rice first to the skillet, then the beaten eggs on top so you dont really see eggs...

I had the Knorr chicken bullion but didn’t know that trick. However, I did use soy sauce. Glad to see my cooking skills live up to Emmy’s. Delicious! Thanks, I needed that validation.
lol she made an Uncle Roger reference! 😂 Uncle Roger DEFINITELY needs to see this now.
God Bless Emmy 🙏
God Bless President Trump 🙏🇺🇲
Happy New Year 🎉
@@JimboJones99 skip the second statement and we're all good 👌
@@JimboJones99 God blessed america instead, by removing that narcisit 5 years old child from his position
I was stressing that you weren't using a bigger pan/wok. Lol.
Loving the name change.
We do it vegan, of course, and use mushroom seasoning for our umami.
Happy New Year Emmy!!
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Can’t wait for the Uncle Roger reaction video to this.... will it be Hayiaaa or Fuyohhh?
It's spelled ''Hayia''. Hayiaaa...
@@BinCaAlors thanks 😉 Uncle Roger so proud of his niece.
Niece and nephew are everywhere! Fuiyoh!
As long as there is some msg in the chicken bullion....he might like
Interesting.
Looks yummy.
Got a couple chores to finish before settling back down to watch....
Happy New Year
Or, as a friend said recently,
*hopeful* New Year!
To those who welcome such wishes
I love fried rice and cook it pretty often. I also add a tea spoon of sugar, it balances the taste. Also, soy sauce is must. Thank you!

literally me 😅
Me every single time, even when I’m in a terrible mood.... she makes me smile. So nowadays when I’m in a terrible mood, I go check a video or two with her xD

Yessssss!
I learned a great trick with the green onions/scallions.... lop off the base and put them upright in some water, and they grow new stems you can use. I stuff paper towels into a short glass and put the onion bases between the glass and paper and add water. Those rooty scraps will make you fresh onions. Romain lettuce too! I'm now trying it with a bok choy base.
Congrats on the updated channel name. How do we find the bees now? Has it all been combined? Thanks
Thank you! The bees are still there the other channel is now called 'Emmymade Extras".

Ah, I bet other stuff is there too. Thanks. I'm glad you are still posting & stuff.
Thank you for making this so easy and versatile. After a long day of school and work me and my family very much enjoyed this meal!
Uncle roger: hiyah~☆wheres the garlic and ginger. Me: weldone mixed
No ginger for fried rice, it spoils the dish.
@@MrHornet72 I agree, whenever I use ginger it always over takes the fried rice and I didn’t even put that much, I might just be cooking it wrong tho
It's in the chicken stock powder.
Ginger is optional but it needs some chilis. They are not optional in Southeast Asia. Garlic is mandatory. We would add a dash of fish sauce too. Phom chob Khao Pad Moo.
Uncle Roger did say a bad chef uses ginger. Worst, chilli jam. Example: Jamie Oliver
You make this wonderfully. I love the options you offer. You are great.
More recipes demonstrating how to avoid food waste please!
Yum!!! I love seeing your recipe Emmy! I also use egg and spam the most often in my fried rice! I fry the spam, then fry garlic and green onions in my oil to flavor the oil, throw in rice and coat it in the garlic scallion oil, then add soy sauce to flavor and throw in the eggs. I also love to squeeze kewpie mayo over it in my bowl, it’s really good!
EMMY TRY KIMCHI FRIED RICE WITH A SOFT YOLK.
That sounds amazing!!!!
Dunno about Emmy but I'll DEFINITELY try this!
YES! I've been a kimchi addict for 30 years! Bought another tub of it yesterday, hope to make my own someday!
I learn so much about cooking and baking every time I watch your videos, thanks, Emmy!
I haven’t had Spam for at least 30 years, but seeing this fried rice suddenly makes me want some.
I'd never had it before, and then I had it on a fried rice breakfast bowl. I was an immediate believer in the power of Spam. It goes so well with everything in this dish.
We season our fried rices the same! Good to know others use the chicken bouillon, white pepper and touch of sesame oil! Best combo! I also do a touch of liquid aminos. Yum.
uncle roger voice : where your gaaaarrrrlic!..... you no cook scallion... scallion for gaaaarrrrnish!
I heard his voice lol
Where your wok?!? Haiyaaa
The white parts can be cooked
@@myrarolston oh i definitely do... its delicious.... but uncle roger is funny and this made me think of him
Hi Emmy just incase you don't know, when you get a piece of egg shell in your eggs, it can be easier to get it out using the larger egg shell part to scoop it up. For some reason the shell attracts the other peice of itself.
Can you do a video or two about avoiding food waste? I would appreciate leftovers more if they were reinvented as something new.
Emmy! I just wanted to thank you for posting this. I made fried rice with some leftover roast meat today following your recipe and it was so easy to make a really, really, tasty fried rice. It's not meant to be complicated, but the way you broke it down just made it somehow so much easier to learn and remember the steps :) Thank you
I can’t stop smiling when she says toodlo byeeee omg lol
The chicken soup base is such a good idea! You are one of the most legit cooks on UA-cam, applying technique to comfort food!
What did the fried rice say to the shrimp?
Don’t wok away from me!

hi emmy! i love fried rice too. i make either my family recipe with spam, or my own version with cilantro. i was looking at ways to hack my recipe and stumbled on your video. i learned a few tips from you so thanks for that. my gramma's recipe adds the rice first to the skillet, then the beaten eggs on top so you dont really see eggs...
Channeling the Uncle Roger Magic 8 Ball:
"No Wok... No Gaaarlic... No M. S. G. Haiyaaaaaa"
I absolutely read this in his voice. :)
@@TheDutchessOfCornville garlic in the chicken stock. Checkmate.
Too much oil!
He can't touch Emmy on rice cooker love, though.
🤣
I do this exact thing with shirataki "rice"- not as good as REAL Rice... but when avoiding carbs... it works! And... happy new year!
If there's msg and uses leftover rice, then it's Uncle Roger approved
But she forgot the wok and the garlic
"Woman, where your wok?!"
I love jasmine rice as well. It is my favorite rice I've ever used.
My kids call spam, “splatter ham”. They love fried rice too.
Oh wow. I just adore Emmy. Instantly gave me that warm and cozy feeling by just watching her eat the fried rice :)
I'd *spam* you with another dad joke for uncle Rodger..
But I'd probably get *FRIED.*
Well if you do, the UA-cam police will be on you like white on *rice* !
Dad jokes always make me laugh. Thank you for smile!
Emmy- so simple and so tasty. Thank you!😊
When you said to make it vegan by skipping the eggs, it just added to my suspicions towards spam.
You would also need to leave out the bouillon powder, unless you use artificial flavored bouillon.
It's refreshing to watch you cook from a recipe you know by heart.
