4
This show really making Uncle Roger angry now
5
Today we're gonna review cooking competition Nobody asked for Chinese people vs. Black people Who make better fried rice?
6
Hi, my name is Autumn Hi, my name is Samara Hi, my name is Hang You Hi, my name is Toki And today we're gonna try each other's fried rice This is my culture
7
and this is what we do I think the biggest difference between black people fried rice
8
and Asian people fried rice Really is we love just putting
9
whatever is in the cabinet I mean Asian people fried rice
10
we kind of do the same Whatever left over in fridge just throw it in there Unless it's chili jam, don't use that Black people we put a lot of our own spin to the dishes we make
11
So I might add Cajun seasoning, Creole seasoning Okay that right Chef Rush used
12
that also Authentic Chinese fried rice for me is like every
13
single pieces of rice has to be separated individually Correct I don't want to jinx it, but yeah I think I'm gonna win today Do I think I'm gonna win today?
14
Oh yo, everybody's so confident My family, my dad himself is a Chinese chef I want a wing for sure Your dad Chinese chef?
15
Then why don't this show get your dad?
16
Why this show get you?
17
Haiya This guy don't look like chef He look like he work at Macha shop that only serve oat milk
18
So today I brought my soy sauce fried rice with Chinese cured meat Which we called
19
Actually there's a story behind this food Eight immortal crossing the ocean with Nobody care about story Who care?
20
Just like all the ingredients in this dish It's Okay Uncle Roger C Color not bad Chinese sausage, shrimp, good, egg in there,
21
spring onion, nice Also there's my special ingredient, salted egg yolk Oh, salted egg yolk, nice!
22
Uncle Roger like that But for competition like this, I don't think you should use salted egg Because other culture people might not like that Remember, every culture different,
23
just some culture is wrong Just stick to regular egg Giving an extra egg-y unami taste in the fried rice There's garlic,
24
scallion Garlic good I just keep stirring it make sure
25
but no MSG Haiyaa I think other contestants will like my food It's a mixture of tradition
26
and also my new invention I don't know why
27
but this camera angle make it look like this niece not
28
wearing anything underneath apron Haiyaa this family-friendly channel put some clothes on Let's see what they think
29
Okay, so right off the bat, she's cute.
30
Shrimp.
31
I think that's pork.
32
Some sesame seeds?
33
Too fancy, I don't like fancy.
34
Fancy!
35
Where got fancy?
36
Just because it got sesame seed, you think it fancy!
37
How poor are you?
38
Corn?
39
I'm sorry, I haven't ever seen corn in fried rice.
40
What?
41
Corn in fried rice?
42
Very common!
43
What's she talking about?
44
It smells interesting.
45
I think I'm- That means it smells bad.
46
Mmm They don't like it I feel like the rice is fighting back
47
The rice is a little dried up I'm gonna have to just leave it at
48
that one bite I'm like confused by how like chewy it
49
is Everything's taking me a really long time to chew Chewy fire rice, maybe she overcook it a bit But also show like this,
50
they make them bring in fire rice in the morning before they start shooting
51
And then during shooting they just put it on table like this
52
They're all gonna just get cold
53
and hot Maybe they take too long to film The fried rice not good already I taste tap water
54
It's not bad What that even mean?
55
There's nothing in the world
56
that tastes like tap water Except tap water One thing I
57
think they could have done better is Get rid of the
58
shrimp Just get rid of it I think they could have
59
seasoned the shrimp a little bit more The shrimp was like
60
very basic I'm really tasting tap water right now It's like
61
a metal type flavor You take I'm barely tasting tap water
62
right now It's like a metal type flavor in it Tap water tastes like metal to you?
63
Where you live?
64
Flint, Michigan is it?
65
This niece Samara obsessed with tap water
66
If she say tap water one more time Uncle Roger gonna
67
put my leg down from chair It's definitely too dry It's really hard to chew it Like imagine
68
if I'm my grandfather This will kill him Having grandson like
69
you will kill him also Don't worry I think I'd give this one about a seven It was okay
70
This fried rice flavor look good, texture maybe not the best.
71
Uncle Roger give six.
72
Off of the flavor alone, I would say a 2 2?
73
What?
74
You, what the hell?
75
2?
76
This fire rice don't deserve 2 Nisamara Haiyaa This show really
77

78
Today I brought my fried rice This your fire rice?
79
Haiyaa How the blackest woman make the whitest fire rice You rate other people fire rice 2 out of 10
80
And this the shit you present?
81
This look like microwave fire rice?
82
And that the weirdest way to plate spring onion Why you stacking it like Lego?
83
I used mixed vegetables, carrots and onions, toasted sesame oil Wait wait wait wait wait wait But look at
84
that close up That corn in there I thought you say earlier you never have corn in fire rice before?
85
I'm sorry, I haven't ever seen corn or fried rice before I think she cheating, I think she just bite this fried rice from somewhere,
86
haiya This look like fried rice you get from Panda Express And then on top of the rice, I added some salt and pepper Some onion powder,
87
I did add some butter And then I went in with the soy sauce Soy sauce?
88
But your rice so white, how much soy sauce you use?
89
Two drop is it?
90
Onion powder, I did add some butter Onion powder, butter, all not necessary Fried rice supposed to cook in high heat If you use butter,
91
it gonna burn The recipe is pretty simple and straightforward So I did bring some soy sauce and sriracha What?
92
As dipping sauce for your fried rice?
93
No, no, no If you need dipping sauce for your fried rice, you fucked up Fried rice supposed to be perfectly seasoned already
94
And also soy sauce and sriracha don't go together This classic mistake Just pick whatever Asian thing,
95
throw on plate I really hope the other contestants like my food.
96
I hope they don't like it.
97
This looks kinda sus.
98
Corn?
99
I'm sorry, I haven't ever seen corn or fried rice.
100
Yeah?
101
Even editor calling you out on your bullshit?
102
Okay.
103
Some soy sauce?
104
We never serve fried rice like that.
105
Honestly, I'm a little bit disappointed Yeah, it tastes like nothing The sauce is on the side, it's a bit bland Mmm, it actually tastes better than I thought What?
106
What the?
107
What is this show?
108
Everybody's saying it's bland
109
But nephew matcha latte like it I think this nephew got crush on Nisamara What are they finding these people?
110
Haiya That's why your dad a chef and you a failure
111
An average American Chinese restaurant would make I'm just gonna like oil in rice Oh my god I'm hungry man
112
It lacks of the oil, crunchiness and Also what with this editing
113
That the fry rice supposed to have Like every sentence they cutting
114
or they zooming or they putting
115
that boom sound effect Giving Uncle Roger a headache Relax editor
116
you don't get paid per cut I don't think these flavors
117
are actually kind of going together I'm missing other flavors I'm
118
not really tasting any garlic See they're cutting on every sentence One more bite
119
The flavor of the eggs itself is there The rice What what?
120
The flavor of the eggs itself is there Is that how you're gonna describe food?
121
The flavor of egg is there Yeah no shit Because she cook with egg haiya What?
122
What you're gonna say next nephew soy boy Oh the taste
123
of rice in there also Oh the taste of corn in
124
there also It's a little bit soggy for me Soggy rice can't be with fried rice no You can't do that.
125
Some things they did really well.
126
I love a good additional side sauce.
127
I think that's great.
128
No, side sauce not great.
129
Asian people, we don't do side sauce.
130
We do side chick or sometimes side family.
131
No side sauce.
132
Sorancha doesn't go with fried rice that well.
133
Exactly.
134
It's giving extra salty and it's already seasoned.
135
This might be a black dish, honestly, because they got everything but the kitchen sink in here, I feel like.
136
I doubt it is an authentic Chinese fried rice because we don't use sriracha
137
The sriracha is pretty American thing I would rate this dish, I'm gonna give it a 6 Oh no no 7 What?
138
Give this a 6, sorry Uncle Roger give that fried rice chi No flavor, no taste, that weird side sauce,
139
everything wrong I'm going to know Today I bring my own special fried rice So for my fried rice,
140
the first step is definitely make the rice cooked Uncle Roger know I say from earlier, no side sauce But this look like chili crisp oil
141
So maybe that acceptable
142
Because the fried rice look like it got flavor already The
143
chili in there just for you to enhance flavor Maybe if you like spicy So that okay Other time for the meat,
144
I used Chinese sausage Good lap chong Crab meat for the vegetable Crab meat?
145
Fuiyoh But little nephew, didn't you say earlier you don't like fancy things?
146
Too fancy, I don't like fancy things This video just full of hypocrite people Is this rage bait video or something?
147
Use carols and green bees to add up the colorfulness
148
And also specially used bamboo shoots The bamboo shoots is so very good Bamboo shoot,
149
nice, good, good This ingredient Uncle Roger approved classic Chinese ingredient Uncle Wang Gang used it in his fried rice Nice touch!
150
Uncle I just starting to like this guy now The bamboo
151
shoots is a very traditional ingredient in China We use it
152
a lot to add up the umami taste It is really
153
hard to peel it It has such thick skin I was
154
trying to use knife to cut it last night I almost broke my knife, like honestly This guy's so weak,
155
even bamboo shoot fuck him up I bring very special and popular chili sauce back in my country.
156
It is called Lao Gan Ma.
157
It gives you a richness and a little spice.
158
Uncle Roger wished he would fry Lao Gan Ma directly into rice.
159
It is definitely authentic.
160
I'm gonna win for the love of the food and my dad.
161
I like this presentation.
162
One thing I smell about this dish is definitely the taste of the pot Wee yo,
163
that's called wok hay I see pork Veggies look okay Potentially,
164
they were frozen I think that's crab meat It's very sad nobody used MSG in this video I love it
165
I'm tasting tap water again What tap water?
166
Yeah, tap water Bitch, you the tap water!
167
Hiya, Uncle Roger's so angry, I have to put my leg down from chair Where you get this tap water woman?
168
Oh my God, what that even mean?
169
They got rice, got bamboo shoot, got crab meat, got Chinese sausage.
170
You say it tastes like tap water.
171
Tap water, not even one of the ingredients.
172
And what that even mean tastes like tap water?
173
That like saying fried chicken tastes like air?
174
Uncle Roger gonna go on this channel and leave this comment.
175
Dear Cocoa Butter, please cast people on your show who can explain how food tastes other than saying tap water.
176
Haiyaa I'm so surprised that they put bamboo shoe in it Nice, you can taste bamboo shoe Good,
177
it's nice with the sauce I'm not knocking this This is not something that I would eat by choice
178
It's seasoned pretty well Grodja hate her attitude It's not soggy, which I love Honestly, it's kind of looking like the Trader Joe's veggie fried rice What?
179
Are y'all actually- No way!
180
What traitor Joe veggie fried rice gonna use bamboo shoot and crab meat?
181
Your taste part even working or not?
182
Can you not taste the crab in there?
183
Veggie fried rice?
184
What I don't understand is mixing pork and seafood together.
185
I've never seen that.
186
One thing- What?
187
What do you need to take a break from this?
188
Come back in a second.
189
Just because you never see things before, don't mean it bad.
190
And also pork and seafood very common combination in black dish It called gambo Haiyaa Gambo delicious, you never have this before?
191
Needs tap water just bullshitting through whole video I hope they
192
don't get paid to do this shit Just getting paid to spread fake news Stop lying to people,
193
Needs tap water My blood pressure getting too high I'm gonna get heart attack after this video
194
So surprised about the bamboo shoot Cause myself I couldn't find it
195
And I think it would be pretty authentic to put it
196
in the fried rice They did a pretty good job doing
197
the grocery shopping At least we got one sane person on there The presentation is lovely, it's beautiful All the colours,
198
I'm just not feeling the taste Something I think they could have done better I'm not really seeing
199
or getting a lot of dry seasonings And you're not supposed to see dry seasoning
200
Dry seasoning like MSG is supposed to be cooked into rice
201
and disappear in there If you see white powder on your fried rice, that's a different party okay?
202
Do with a little bit more egg
203
You just know good food and I'm sorry but this is not it I think- Uncle Roger hate her attitude
204
Oh my god Are you also getting angry watching this video?
205
Or is it just me?
206
Do I need anger management class or something?
207
Haiya
208
It's a pretty traditional Chinese fried rice I think this might
209
be closer to The best fried rice Uncle Roger see
210
so far I don't think this is authentic I don't From 1 to 10, it's about 8 Yeah, Uncle Roger agree This is the best one I see
211
so far Uncle Roger rate it 8 out of 10 also I give it a 7 mostly
212
because the textures are a little off.
213
The pork in this one taste better than the other one.
214
So I'm gonna give this a 3 out of 10.
215
3 out of 10?
216
Oh my god.
217
Why you trying to gaslight people?
218
Needs tap water.
219
3 out of 10?
220
Remind me of my ex-wife.
221
She just absolute hater.
222
I mean, not all of us can cook so...
223
Okay, let's just go to the last fried rice.
224
Uncle Roger can't take much more.
225
Today I brought my beautiful basic fried rice.
226
Oh no, no, no, what is this?
227
No, no. Look at this soggy, mushy piece of shit.
228
How your fire rice look like oatmeal.
229
No flavor, no color.
230
Some fresh garlic.
231
I like to use ghee as my oil.
232
Just adds.
233
That's what happens when you try to make fire rice with freshly cooked rice.
234
Nice and brown and golden fried up the garlic
235
and started boiling the rice after i washed it y'all added
236
the cooked rice after frying up the eggs mix it all together add the soy sauce add some adobo
237
if you know you know uncle roger don't know what the hell you mean adobo you're telling me
238
that adobo sauce in this fried rice stop lying to people
239
okay the only thing in this fried rice is all our ancestor tier
240
because it looked like oatmeal don't even need to judge zero
241
out of ten let's see what other people give this I believe my fried rice is gonna win
242
because it's simple this niece look cute and she seemed nice but this fried rice giving Uncle Roger PTSD it's soggy
243
that is a bad sign I don't see a lot of vegetable action happening here you think I think
244
that the biggest problem with this fire rice is the lack of Westapal Holy shit, where you find people who don't know anything about fire rice
245
Come do your episode about fire rice It's giving traditional from the smell What you smelling in there?
246
Tap water again is it?
247
Zero, zero Oh god
248
I'm speechless I can't really say what they did well with
249
this one The only thing I think it did well is It's edible, I lied, it's doomed
250
Something I think they did pretty well is the seasoning Perfect level of saltiness
251
that I really like Also I like the peppery taste,
252
blending well with the cream Nis Toki is the only one who can give productive answer This woman everything tap water
253
And nephew soy boy everything just doom or sus
254
I am not gonna say that this was a black chef who made this We don't do this This is not authentic.
255
There's no way.
256
Zero Asian blood.
257
I think it's probably made by a black chef.
258
Since I have to rate it, I'm gonna give it a 1.
259
The fact that the rice is soggy is disrespectful.
260
Okay, this is the only time Uncle Roger agree with her.
261
I think I'll give it this a 7.
262
7!
263
No, no, Nis Toki, you give that 7.
264
You too nice!
265
That why everybody bullying you?
266
This cooking competition, Nishtoki, you cannot be generous like this You too nice, your standard too low I think you can take a shit on plate,
267
serve it to Nishtoki You still gonna get 6.5 Fish of 3,
268
3, 3, 3, 3 It's really bad Groucha giving this 0 What?
269
I'm not surprised I won The only reason you win is
270
because you just sabotage other people But giving them low score like one or two
271
Ha yeah you don't deserve this Her fried rice terrible It's the blandest looking one Again
272
if you want to see good black fried rice Then go watch Uncle Roger video with Chef Rush In that video, Asian people
273
and black people work together to make something great Like Rush
274
Hour Uncle Roger think nephew matcha latte should have won And here my final score for all their fried rice Mr. Nephew, let Uncle Roger know in comment if you agree with my scoring
275
I'ma still leave a winner because that fried rice is waiting for me when I get home
276
Thank you for putting this on screen so we know what not to cook

Practice Tips
To maximize your learning experience from this video, consider using the shadowing technique. This method involves listening to a segment of the video and then trying to repeat what you've heard simultaneously. With the lively banter and varied tones found in this cooking competition, you'll be able to practice both your comprehension and pronunciation.
Start by selecting short clips or sections that resonate with you. Given the rapid pace and humorous undertones of the dialogue, repeating each line multiple times can help you grasp the different expressions and cultural references. Pay special attention to the emotional highs and lows conveyed through the speakers' tones. This will not only enrich your vocabulary but also improve your intonation and rhythm, crucial for the IELTS speaking practice.
The informal nature of the conversation makes it suitable for shadowspeak. Don’t hesitate to mimic the laughter and accents, as these elements are vital for natural speech. Daily practice with the shadowing site will lead to significant improvements in your fluency, making you more comfortable in casual English conversations. Happy learning!
What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
