    I know this is super simple for you, but I genuinely am supremely appreciative of your effort! It’s been SO expensive and hard for me to both afford to feed my family, and keep up with making different fresh, nutritious recipes for a low dollar amount. Extra long recipes can also take a toll on me as I’m severely disabled and get overwhelmed easily and quickly. You breaking things down to the most simple way possible helps me so much, and I’m sure it helps out many others!

    Thank you so much, Aaron and Claire! This was such an easy recipe to do and it's so delicious! I played around with some different ingredients and I now, with the oyster sauce, add a bit of soy sauce and a few drops of sesame oil, as well as a bit of brown sugar. I whisk those ingredients with the eggs and then add the rice as you instructed. I also add some minced garlic to the green onion oil right before I add the rice mixture, otherwise the garlic will burn. Just some suggestions for anyone else that wants to take your delicious and easy recipe further!

    Ya know, I was cooking myself a fish fillet but had no sides to go with it. I had some white rice on hand, as well as some egg and bacon, and thought “maybe this could be good” so into the pan with my fish oil and seasonings I added some soy sauce, teriyaki and the bacon with an egg, making some of the best fried rice I’ve ever had. It’s crazy that upon finding this video, I discovered I basically made fried rice exactly the way you’re supposed to. But that’s really all cooking is huh?

      By it's self, fish sauce is strong but it's mostly salty. A little bit of it really deepens the flavor of whatever dish you add it to, and it does not taste fishy at all. If you add to much at will very very salty and strong of anchovy.

      @@budjy1 I bought pre-cooked rice few times, its edible, depending on brand can be even good. Basically you just open the bag, put it in microwave and heat it for two to three minutes, so you can make it with this and still take circa 5-10 minutes.
      Recipes like these are also great when you have leftover cooked rice and dont know what with it. Egg on rice or fried rice makes for good early dinner.

    The way Aaron says "...if you don't have it, don't worry about it..." I love it!
    It is the spirit of cooking, or making anything on your own. We are NOT factories. We are human beings making food for ourselves and families. Why do we need to worry too much about following whoever. Yeah, it may come out different if we missed a particular sauce or something but why bother? This is your dishes. You or your family would like it because you spent efforts making it. It may taste different from how Aaron cooks it, or how Roger cooks it, but who can say which is best? You haven't tasted theirs, nor have they tasted yours! If you find it not tasty enough for you or family, add it back next time, or change other variables. That's the fun of cooking!

      @@jazzysocksdude I checked my bag of rice, it says one serving is 1/4 cup dry, or 45g. So all the recipes that call for using 1 cup of dry rice, that's 4 servings or 180g. I usually cook that much, but since i eat one meal a day, I'll eat half of it. 3/4 cup cooked is what one serving is supposed to be so I'll eat 1 1/2 cups cooked. Oh was your pack of rice already cooked? I didn't weigh mine after cooking it. Where is my scale....

    I stumbled upon this video yesterday morning, and by evening I had cleaned a few years of dis-use from my wok and had eaten the best fried rice I have ever tasted! By now I've subscribed and watched about ten more of your videos! Thank you, Aaron for making fabulous simple and easy, and thank you Claire for being the most adorable test subject on youtube! Now, I've gotta run to the store and stock up on Spam and green onions!
