Creando lección...
1
Ah Uncle Roger are you okay?
2
Nephew Nigel, what kind of basement is this?
3
Why the stairs so steep?
4
Niece and nephew first video of 2026
5
Welcome to Uncle Roger new home this creepy basement today We're
6
gonna review nephew Barry Lewis again last time he made the saddest Sogiest fried rice.
7
But this time he said he's taking Uncle Roger advice and recreating it.
8
Let's see if we improve.
9
Today I'm attempting to make a better egg fried rice and if you're gonna be a nephew, nephew Barry, you might as well do it properly or at least try and do a botched version.
10
Orange polo, nice.
11
Uncle Roger love it when people dress like me.
12
Who put full stop after their name?
13
Right, I feel like I work at a summer camp.
14
I couldn't find an official Uncle Roger egg fried rice recipe.
15
What?
16
Unless I've missed it.
17
No, you missed it in Uncle Roger 3 million subscriber video.
18
I make egg fried rice use that recipe.
19
The creator that I enjoy, Joshua Wiseman, is actually quite good pals with Uncle Roger, and has actually done his egg fried rice, but better.
20
It looks absolutely good.
21
I'm called Josh our recipe not bad also.
22
There are some quirky ingredients in this.
23
So there's rice, eggs, oil, some shallots instead of onions.
24
Okay, not too bad.
25
But then it get onto some really interesting things.
26
Sweet soy sauce.
27
I've never seen sweet soy sauce before.
28
Double aged soy sauce.
29
Something called sambal and even something called galangal.
30
Yes, I have 100% pronounced that wrong.
31
But to give myself the best chance possible, yesterday I popped to a massive Asian supermarket.
32
We are going to Asian supermarket to buy ingredients.
33
He already puttin more effort in than Jamie Oliver This place is massive
34
This place so massive you even got dentist and ear clinic in there Nice!
35
That's the good thing about Asian supermarket Just go there and you can do everything
36
Look at all of this soy sauce This is crazy
37
I don't know what lemon sauce is but I want some of
38
that Sweet soy sauce this might be the biggest bottle I've ever seen Looks like a beer
39
but that will do That is Galengal, amazing That's the one I need Sambal Olek.
40
Apparently.
41
Never knew there were so many sambals.
42
But I couldn't get the aged soy sauce.
43
There's so many there so I've got this.
44
Ah, Kim Lan brand.
45
Kim Lan is soy sauce brand from Taiwan.
46
Kim Lan is real soy sauce, but Taiwan, not a real country.
47
Ayya, so many mosquitoes in my basement.
48
I'll tell you what, some of those ingredients in there, I really could not have got hold of in my standard supermarket.
49
Even got myself a proper wok.
50
Wok nice, Fuyo!
51
And look how excited he is.
52
This is the best unboxing video.
53
Fuck little kid in their PS5.
54
This is a carbon steel one, and I think we've got a seasoning.
55
I've never done that before.
56
I found some carbonara bacon noodles, and something called Calpis soda.
57
Ooh, that's nice.
58
That tastes like- Don't get distracted, ADD nephew.
59
Make your fire rice.
60
And this is the premium dark soy sauce, which cost an absolute fortune, but the guy was raving about it in there.
61
Yep, that looks like chili paste, all right?
62
This is the sambal.
63
Smells really good though.
64
All right, so, like ginger.
65
It looks just like ginger.
66
No, galanggau is not ginger.
67
Hopefully it tastes like creamy Sprite.
68
No, don't try, no. Gosh.
69
That's like eating a tree.
70
It tastes like tree and it going back for seconds.
71
This guy crazy.
72
No. Let's try the Sambao Sambao, sure you can try straight Oh that's...
73
Wooo!
74
Haiya, don't pee pussy Little bit of Sambao, fuck you up Oh, that's lovely Really intense Where is this from?
75
It's from Taiwan but bottled in Nottingham There's someone in Nottingham in England Putting Marmite in that bottle
76
It's from Taiwan and then bottled in Nottingham
77
That Taiwan and Nottingham Two of the most different places One is beautiful
78
and full of culture And the other one is Nottingham But what about this much thicker Thicker sweet soy sauce
79
Ooh, that's gorgeous!
80
I hope you wash your hand first before you finger your soy sauce like that Thicker sweet soy sauce Oh,
81
that is not salty at all That is pretty much like a black honey
82
That's the name of Uncle Roger's favourite stripper Good memories!
83
So we can actually overnight chill our rice Giving it a good old...
84
You're washing rice, correct Starch Oh wow, look at that colour change Once I was happy with the drain Wee-oh, rice cooker, nice!
85
From the bowl, which was one of the most fiddliest...
86
This must be one of the first time white people take Uncle Roger advice and use rice cooker.
87
...water and getting the rice cooker going.
88
By washing off the starch, hopefully we're gonna stop it sticking together so much.
89
Er, look at the rice all cut together, it's not!
90
I was genuinely a little bit worried.
91
Oh!
92
I don't know about this, look, it's really sticky and clumping together.
93
Yeah, of course.
94
Because you just finished cooking it?
95
Now apparently I don't understand this
96
but by putting it in the fridge that's actually gonna dry
97
out the moisture from it Correct Sticky as it is to hopefully- Wait but but but why your fridge so empty?
98
I thought you got family Are you stowing them or something?
99
What what kind of the war sky fridge is this?
100
I uh...
101
It feel like you just bought it today And the next morning
102
which is actually this morning I have been pleasantly surprised Morning This tray is blooming freezing.
103
Look, it has actually, oh my gosh, that is crazy.
104
It was so gummy last night.
105
And it is still held together a little bit, but it does separate.
106
Yeah.
107
How the fridge has basically...
108
Now it's nice and separate and loose.
109
Let's at least start to get the stir-fry sauce ready.
110
All right, the only other thing to really prep is three garlic cloves that I've just been rocking with my seesaw. So let's...
111
Garlic correct.
112
First, garlic cloves.
113
Galanggau, good.
114
Soy sauce, sweet soy sauce, dark soy sauce, okay.
115
There's sambal.
116
Sambal, amount look okay.
117
Some sesame oil.
118
Aiya, no, no, no. First mistake, Asian sesame oil should just be finishing oil.
119
So you don't want to mix them all together with all other seasoning like this.
120
Sambal, soy sauce, garlic, kalang kao should go in rice first.
121
Sesame oil last thing.
122
And to be honest, kalang kao, a bit unusual ingredient.
123
Uncle Roger won't put it in my fried rice.
124
But it's not wrong.
125
So yeah, I bought this carbon steel wok.
126
It's really nice and light.
127
The pan I used was actually flat bottom.
128
This is round intentionally.
129
Round bottom good.
130
Heat up the sides apparently.
131
Correct.
132
And easier to toss also.
133
Whatever they call them, I've got my standard one.
134
That very hard to cook on stove like that.
135
See the wok, can't even sit properly.
136
I've got my standard one.
137
But we have to season the pan.
138
I've never seasoned the pan before.
139
Never seasoned pan before?
140
You British.
141
You never season anything before
142
Always gone like easy
143
and done the nonstick ones they make me feel really comfortable It had a much more flat bottom
144
so I can't get the heats that these can wait But apparently on the- why your sink look like this?
145
Why there's so many compartments and why that middle sink so small haiya Are you storing your leggo in there?
146
What that use for?
147
First wash what you want to do is get some very hot dish water to get rid of
148
that and You don't need to show us every step of seasoning wok, please.
149
...wet for too long.
150
Seven minutes into video, he haven't start cooking.
151
Haiyaa.
152
He's smoking, is that good?
153
He's still seasoning wok.
154
Don't need to show us how you season wok.
155
There are 100 videos on YouTube showing that already Haiyaa Fast forward What are we doing?
156
He's still seasoning He's still seasoning In fact, he will help Wok hei?
157
Wok er?
158
In a minute, we've got a deep fry, this is what happens Finally, he start chopping, 10 and a half minutes into video He only get to chopping stage,
159
haiyaa This is so much foreplay, Uncle Roger getting blue ball And his voice stressed me out also Wok hei?
160
Wok ee?
161
Wok ee?
162
This video, the opposite of ASMR.
163
Apparently we do it whilst the oil warms up.
164
And it might pop up in a minute.
165
So he deep-fry shallot first as topping, okay?
166
Nice idea.
167
It better be good though, otherwise I'll stop.
168
And that's shallot.
169
Dad joke.
170
They look absolutely gorgeous.
171
Alright, so I've just been slicing up some more shallots, slightly more fine.
172
Okay.
173
Spring onion, we've got some more for garnish too.
174
Correct.
175
Red chilli, white pepper, Some more garlic cloves
176
And of course our good old friend the MSG Weeho Actually
177
telling me to add Two teaspoons of MSG Nice MSG mistakes seasoned gracefully Another bad joke
178
If you don't start cooking soon MSG gonna stand for My saucepan going up your ass Oh gosh Wish me luck Okay, eight correct In a bowl,
179
little mix with a fork Right, that's our prep done Shall we do this?
180
Finally he start cooking This pan Ah, just take so long By the time he done,
181
Uncle Roger gonna have grandkid About to get some duck fat added to it Duck fat, two fans?
182
Stuff is cheeky, make some amazing roast potatoes What?
183
Oh my gosh, this stuff is cheeky This stuff is cheeky What is cheeky?
184
Why duck fat cheeky?
185
Only British chef will describe ingredient as cheeky What you gonna say next?
186
Oh spring onion the dog's bollocks Garlic going in 30 seconds on its own
187
Haiyaa this guy go all the way to Chinese grocery store to buy wok
188
But he forgot to buy proper spatula Get proper wok spatula like this Not
189
that children toy spatula Use the real thing like a real man In go the shallots the chilies
190
Okay I know uncle Joshua put spring onion at beginning also
191
but Uncle Josh a professional chef he can control heat I think for nephew Barry you put spring onion in
192
so early I predict your spring onion gonna wilt let's see
193
if Uncle Roger correct stand for a few seconds
194
and then start okay it going good as it cooks oh
195
my god texture look good I see it we want to
196
get it into little pieces like this in goes our rice rice going good okay now
197
that looks a lot more like egg fried ratio correct tossing
198
it around a little bit he's a nephew look at that
199
Notice how half the wok still empty
200
Fried rice is just like your partner who about to break
201
up with you You need to give it space There's heat then, someone just hit me Oh, okay it smells brilliant Rice stock clumping together,
202
good, big improvement already All of that fat has been completely absorbed
203
The white pepper goes on White pepper good MSG MSG FUIIIO Oh my god, you just chucked that rice everywhere It's so fast so good
204
But what is this epic lot of the ring music In fairness, I think I've got that half left in my pan And the other half all over my hob Right,
205
let's get this off I'm gonna have to pour this on a little bit at a time Okay, sauce going good But of course we've not added any soy at all Oh my word,
206
that's just completely transformed it Wait, after you pour sauce What?
207
After you pour sauce, you should put it back on fire To dry sauce out
208
a little bit Otherwise rice is gonna be wet from soy sauce and the fire bring out flavour also
209
hmm yeah I think we're done uncle what? no? you haven't even tried one spoon to taste test
210
and you think you done? how you know
211
if that's enough seasoning? every soy sauce brand in Asian grocery
212
store they all taste different you have to taste it haiya
213
there is rice all over my floor That's the tastiest floor in all of Britain Right, let's finish, yeah?
214
Here we go, oh it's like falling apart Mmmmm That rice
215
But honestly it don't look bad Look pretty good Whatsoever Akawaja
216
like this Smells out of this world Every rice grains separate
217
and it look nice and fragrant Good colour Old
218
but I have to admit I was like a little worried
219
the color was like well it's a bit plain Normally you like make see here see here
220
so what's during making it was just see this spring onion here
221
Wilting a little bit like how uncle roger predicted but at least he's sprinkling on more fresh spring onion
222
And uncle roger think
223
that fried rice can be a little bit drier see a little bit too much sauce collecting right here
224
that what happened when you put sauce in there
225
but you don't put back on stove just doing
226
that off the heat but we really did fry
227
that rice there's some real it's hard to show on the camera like some nicely charred edges
228
but not completely obliterated it's been really cool to get called out though like i don't get to collaborate
229
that often so this is i guess it's kind of like
230
that ah okay topped with fried shallot i cannot wait to
231
try this this is not the greatest photo in the world
232
but uncle roger and i have been messaging
233
and i've literally just sent in that photo
234
that right nephew barry actually slide into uncle roger dm usually youtuber get dm from celebrity
235
or instagram model but uncle roger get this guy six
236
or something like that but to be honest i'm
237
so relieved we've even got to this point here we go okay hope you like it
238
it did smell a bit peppery it's got really strong peppery depth to it
239
and the heat from that sang Sambao I said sanggau
240
That is without a shadow of a doubt The best egg
241
fried rice I have ever ever tried Possibly slightly too much heat for Mrs B
242
and the kids That is incredible That's the best egg fried rice I've ever eaten
243
This guy don't even know his wife Possibly slightly too much heat for Mrs B
244
and That's the best egg fried rice I've ever eaten Nephew
245
Barry in 2026 White people can handle spice now The biggest
246
show on internet is this bald white guy forcing people to eat spicy wings.
247
That how popular spicy food is with white people, you know?
248
Anytime white people discover new type of food, they're the best at monetizing it and making a trend.
249
Spicy food is the new avocado toast.
250
Hop.
251
The rice is mildly toasted but flavored by that sauce and not greasy and overpowering.
252
The egg is woven through it, the chili, the spring onion, the shallots as well.
253
Absolutely outstanding.
254
I've loved today.
255
Yes, I got slated.
256
Huge improvement huge improvement good work i don't mind in a
257
strange way maybe that's the key thing about uncle roger's trying
258
to be he wants people to like force themselves to push themselves
259
and i've learned so much today correct using this blooming thing here
260
but it's been fun so
261
if josh wiseman is watching fantastic recipe my friend absolutely out of this world yeah very good fire rice
262
but uncle roger still cannot give you uncle title
263
because this is not your recipe uncle roger
264
if you're watching i've learned i've grown i've even i've not stamped my foot
265
But I know this is just the start of it.
266
It could be so much better.
267
Maybe I could fly over to do a video with you in person.
268
You can show me how it's done.
269
As you've said when you're in London.
270
Of course, come to LA sometime, Uncle Roger show you.
271
But wait till I finish building my outdoor kitchen.
272
Nephew Nigel agreed to let Uncle Roger build outdoor kitchen in his backyard.
273
So Uncle Roger can show you how to make fire rice on high powered gas burner.
274
As you've said when you're in London, I don't live anywhere near London.
275
I live in a place where there's probably more cows than there are people.
276
What?
277
Incredible.
278
Hopefully you can come to London when Uncle Roger open restaurant there.
279
Why don't you ride one of your many cows to come to Uncle Roger restaurant in London?
280
Opening late March, early April this year.
281
And niece and nephew, let Uncle Roger know how should I decorate my new home?
282
What I should put all behind here?

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
