    Sambal Oelek is a very simple sambal - just ground-up chiles with some salt. It's raw and uncooked. A lot of other sambals are cooked and have extra ingredients which make them more flavourful, like Sambal Trassi (with fermented shrimp) or Sambal Peteh (with peteh beans).

      Sambal oelek is a dutch product. It’s different from Malaysian sambal belacan and from Indonesian sambal trasi. Sambal oelek is cooked as well it’s just got onion, garlic, chilies & salt. Whereas Indonesian & Malaysian sambal got similar ingredients+shrimp paste (belacan or trasi) and fried. The difference between the Asian sambal & the Dutch sambal is the cooking method. The Southeast Asian sambal is mostly panfried with lots of oil to preserve the ingredients, the Dutch sambal is cooked by boiling. The flavor is different.

      @Carlocodh i’m indonesian, born & raised in Indonesia. I happened to study in US some 30yrs ago that’s when i encountered sambal oelek. The oelek is dutch spelling coz the Indonesian spelling would be ulek. It is made in the Netherlands not Indonesia. If it anything from Indonesia, it would be sambal uleg (there is such a brand produced by Indonesian company Finna). I would know coz i make my own sambal since 30yrs ago. Out here in Indonesia it is widely available in all sorts of varieties from the various Indonesian tribes. I know i’m not wrong coz i read the ingredients and been to the factory in the Netherlands 25yrs ago. If you’re telling me that these days sambal oelek changed their formula & start incorporating vinegar as stabilizer, i wouldn’t know since that brand is not available for sale here in Indonesia.

    lol, my Japanese friend who is a professional chef advised me to get a basic rice cooker rather than a complex one because they're just as functional and a lot less likely to break (as well as being a lot cheaper).
    and no, she doesn't make egg fried rice. She cooks mostly Japanese (obviously) and cajun.

    • @amthatwas
      @amthatwas 19 днів тому

      It's true that a basic rice cooker can cook rice just fine, but it's not true that they're just as functional as the expensive ones. One of the biggest differences is that, with an expensive rice cooker, you can essentially keep your cooked rice in the rice cooker, ready to eat, for up to 24 hours (some people do so for much longer, but most manufacturers recommend a max of 24 hours). This probably sounds pointless to most westerners, but in Japan, it's common for people to eat rice with every meal; so it's helpful for them to be able to just make it once, and then have it readily available for their next 3 meals.
      The more expensive ones can also cook rice for more types of uses (i.e. say that you want to make rice porridge or sushi rice), and they use fuzzy logic so they can handle different variables better (grain size, altitude, humidity, etc), and they are more forgiving of user error (i.e. it can automatically compensate if you accidentally put in the wrong amount of water). These obviously are not functions that everyone needs or will necessarily care about, but they certainly do exist.

  • @onanthebarbarian4842
    @onanthebarbarian4842 7 місяців тому +2

    The Conimex sambal oelek consists of chili peppers, salt, E270, and E202. While the Singlong sambal belacan consists of chili peppers, cooking oil, onion, garlic, sugar, salt, spices, dried prawn (that's the belacan), and E202. Personally I wouldn't use the more flavorful sambals as an ingredient, but rather as a condiment on the side. Sambal oelek being essentially preserved, ground up peppers is something you can use when you want finely ground peppers in your dish but also don't want to grind a handful of peppers just for that. You can also use it as a condiment, of course. But when cooking Indonesian food, I rarely use sambal as an ingredient because the peppers (and the onions, garlic, trassi, etc.) just go directly into the dish.

    It has been said already, but just to clarify the differences between the two sambals uncle Roger mentioned: sambal oelek consists of raw ground chili peppers with salt (I love it since it goes with virtually anything). Sambal belachan is a cooked sambal with chili peppers and the Indonesian or Malaysian version of fermented shrimp paste called either "trassi" or "belachan". I also really, really love that stuff. I'm one of those white people who adores shrimp paste in any way, shape or form. I even grew to like the smell, since I know the flavour it provides to a dish so well nowadays. I often use it (sambal trassi/belachan) on bread with cheese.

  • @fernbrisot325
    @fernbrisot325 7 місяців тому +2

    Chinese, egg fried rice can be made several ways (to my limited knowledge). 1. Fully cook the eggs. 2. Cook the eggs until they are just starting to thicken and then add the rice. With quick enough mixing, the soft egg coats the rice grains, so that there are not pieces of cook egg in the final dish. 3. Add egg yolks to the cold rice before cooking (golden fried rice). I make fried rice the second way. I prefer the texture, but it also allows me to add salt and pepper and sesame oil to the eggs before cooking, so that the seasoning also coats the rice grains. The second method has a name, but I am unable to recall it at the moment. Also, cheater "wok hei" can sort of be achieved by letting the rice sit for a minute without stirring and allowing some slight browning of the rice on the bottom of the pan. Once mixed in, that browning gives a little depth of flavor. I have a basic electric stove, so I have to do what I can to up the flavor.

  • @harovlog5569

    There’s one kind of egg fry rice at the east we call “Gold coating Silver “ that means golden yolks is coating silver rice❤ I’ll put 1 full egg and 1 egg yolk in 1cup of rice, mixing the rice with yolks, and let it stick all covered the rice , add some salt, sugar,chicken powder (you can think it is a kind of MSG but it made by chicken) and you can frying it with what you want to put in with common sense 😂

    I think it's smart to undercook the egg if you aren't going to separate it to add back after. I actually cook everything first, bacon first, then onion, any veg, then garlic, rice, then push it aside, then egg, mix, then soy. My childhood friend's mom showed me that way. She used a Korean chili paste, and I don't remember what it was. But we ate it with kimchee, we ate everything with kimchee. We ate hot dogs rolled up in rice and seaweed with kimchee. We ate plain rice with kimchee. We ate dried squid with kimchee. We ate kimchee with kimchee. But my egg fried rice now is better than I've had at any restaurant . She also sometimes made hotdog fried rice, or spam fried rice. I haven't tried that as an adult, I think I will this week.

Fried rice (made at home) is always a nice thing to throw together for a quick dinner. I had to explain to a few people that honestly, it takes longer to prep for the fried rice than it does to cook it! Good video. I'd love to see a collab between you and Vincenzo!

    Belacan is a form of shrimp paste commonly found in Malaysia. It is different from the Thai shrimp paste you use in Thai curries.
    Belacan is usually sold in dried blocks, and has a pretty salty flavor. It has various applications in Malaysian cuisine, used in:
    - Malaysian sambal (hence known as sambal belacan)
    - Various Nyonya (traditional Malay-Chinese fusion cuisine) dishes
    - Probably some Malay dishes (am not very familiar with Malay cooking)
    - Fried rice (belacan fried rice is one of my favorite versions of hawker fried rice, I normally pick this if available)
    There's probably other applications that I don't know about.
    Sambal Oelek is Indonesian, and I'm not familiar with it. A quick Google search tells me it's sambal made with vinegar, but someone Indonesian can probably elaborate more on it

    I hope one day that Chef James gets to do a collab with Uncle Roger. Judging how Uncle Roger works with other chefs in the past, you can tell that it's always a good time. I think the only way for Chef James to get his attention, though, is if he sees a means to milk some comedy out of it - which usually involves roasting people for cooking asian foods incorrectly. I don't see Chef James doing that as he's very knowledgeable on asian cooking techniques, so perhaps a way to win Uncle Roger over is to challenge him to cook outside his comfort zone so he can joke himself rather than the chef? Chef James' idea of Uncle Roger cooking a Risotto might actually be a good idea. Or perhaps do a compare challenge of "Rice dish vs Rice dish" sort of theme. I don't know. I'm just spitballing ideas.

    Hi James. Thanks again for your insightful review. BTW, have you shown us an Egg Fried Rice? I'll have to go back and check.
    And, I have to admit, I'm one of those who went out and bought a small bag of MSG at the local Asian store. I tried it - thankfully, not in the portions Uncle Roger demonstrated. I put it in a jar labeled Umami. I use it sparingly - just a little sprinkle occasionally on some veggies, etc. The small bag I bought will probably last me years. I've learned while cooking, like salt, a little goes a long way to bring out hidden flavors. And, no, I did not experience Chinese Food Syndrome. As I recall, my mother discovered Accent Food Seasoning decades ago. First ingredient - MSG.

    Holy shit, James, that gigantic burger you made looked phenomenal! I’m a sucker for a good burger and they’re pretty hard to come by, I had a Waygu burger not so long ago and it really was not all that I thought it should be.
    Vincenzo is a really nice guy, he did a demonstration at our local supermarket and a little workshop for the kiddos, my girls went along and I think they made spaghetti bolognaise. There is a very large Chinatown market in Sydney, and a smaller Chinatown in Newcastle, Vincenzo is close to one of those towns, so he would have had the right tips lol.

  • @vo1ce147

    so the diffrence is simple if you start to try sambal pick olek, its just basic asf but good nontheless its just classic 3 sambal ingridient garlic,chilli and salt, or any combination of it can be shallot chilli salt, or shallot garlic chilli, its can be made by self just by pound in with mortar and pastle with ratio 3 chilli : 1 garlic : 1 shallot / 1 tbs salt or just throw into food processor
    now on the other hand belancan its kinda on strong side we see it multiple time its just olek but you added extra shrip paste, and it usually more suitable for cooking than just use it as your sauce while olek usually people just use it as sauce because it easy
    tldr olek is just starting point for every sambal recepies you can make,
    swap the chilli with green thai bird eyes chilli and fry it you get sambal bajak
    adding tomato to the olek and fry it you get classic fried sambal
    adding bassil and tomato you get sambal kemangi
    and so on

    Uncle Roger didn't react to the Italian version though which is why it didn't show up for you.

    Zojirushi rice cooker in Japan and Cuckoo rice cooker in South Korea are the most used. Both are good, as they have multiple functions on how long you want to cook your rice, when it's done, what kind of rice, and what's in it, including whole grains. I love using Cuckoo. Worth buying

    So I think people and maybe even professional chefs don't get this, but gas in a professional kitchen and gas at home is different. A wok burner is 150k to 100k BTU. A commercial stove is about 30k BTUs. Residential is on the high-end 15k BTU. An induction stove is about
    30k BTU equivalent since there is less waste heat. So, in a residential setting, IH is going to give closer performance to a commercial gas stove than a residential gas stove is going to give you.

    Yep, you can't get the right cooking time or purity by adding it all together. Nice squiggles for firm but not overcooked egg, set aside, same with the aromatics, you will burn em if you properly hit that rice with 'wok hei' - I combine after it's sauced and peas go in (can pre-steam those too lol) and maybe little carrot cubes - I like the different sweet and moist bites along with the savory salty toasty rice. All about contrasting textures & flavors imho. Green onion is garnish, not for cooking. Same with sesame oil, flavor will break down (long-chain aromatics are weak to heat)

  • @damiaanwolters4739

    Induction is so much better in a come kitchen for egg fried rice tho. Just because it turns out so much more heat and is so much more efficient than an electric or gas burner. My induction burner will have a heavy cast iron at smoking point within the minute at max power so it's great for stir frying compared to a gas stove at home.

    The problem with gas is at least some of the "Pooer" i'll put it, provinces of canada, it's extremly rare to have a gas line hooked up to a house. Propane too is a lot more common by far than natural gas for a BBQ in same sections of Caanada. Though raw burners are uncommon, but many apartments still use them, as if they work, they work, they're not paying the power bill. Where most homes now a days I'd say are indection.
    My example is Saskatchewan, Canada. I find it's rare for anyone to have gas "at home" except for your furnace which is usually natural gas.

    Sambal Oelek is a Dutch pronunciation of Indonesian Sambal Ulek ( to grind in a mortar) Sambal Belacan (belacan is term from shrimp paste ) similar with Sambal Terasi. Sambal Oelek usually didn’t use shrimp paste where else Sambal belacan/Sambal terasi used. Sambal Oelek is more Dutch “creation “ which vinegar is usualy used.
