You have to see the silver lining, and I think stuff like this is what makes this forum and our community great. Don't be depressed just because it goes off topic, celebrate the fact we can have a thread about fried rice that turns into one about abusing ether ;)
but to get this shit back on topic: How do you go bout making fried rice? I never have made fried rice that comes out good, or even remotely tasting like fried rice. IDK wtf I'm doing wrong. Advise me on making dope ass fried rice, please.
If you aren't adding egg (I didn't the first time I tried to make fried rice) then that's definitely a must, wisk some eggs with water or milk like you're making scrambled egg, then once everything else is cooked pour that on and cook on high until it's yellow and not soggy in texture.
Also soy-sauce while cooking is a must.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

I would imagine adding the eggs improves the consistency of the fried rice as well, which would be a plus for texture and eating with chopsticks. -

People here like to call country fried steak- chikin fried steak, even though it's not chikin. I hate them. -

you see little bits of fried egg in the rice at restaurants so i guess it works -
2017-01-09 at 3:35 PM UTCI always thought they had a fryer filled with eggs instead of oil and they cooked the rice in there.

Have you ever cooked pasta directly in the sauce rather than in water? -

No. I've never heard of that. I'd imagine the sauce would burn and be very splattery at the temperature needed to cook pasta noodles. I dont know if you're being serious or not. My egg fryer comment was not. -
2017-01-09 at 5:11 PM UTCBeing serious. Some dude I lived with years and years ago used to do it. It worked surprisingly well from what I remember. I can't remember if he added a bit of water to the sauce or not.
But I was also taking a lot of benzos at the time and would have thought anything put in front of me tasted good.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2017-01-09 at 5:23 PM UTCYeah I guess it would depend in the sauce's texture and consistency. Maybe next time I'm at my mom's I will use her Crock-Pot to heat up some spaghetti sauce and I'll put some noodles in there. And then I'll put my face in there like a MAN.

Oh! Okay... The space cat also mentioned taking the rice and putting it in the fridge over night? What's the point of this?
Also, how much soy sauce? (Loved the movie John dies at the end.. would totally shoot up soy sauce.)

2017-01-09 at 10:06 PM UTCI think the idea is that like leftovers sometimes test better than the dish on the day it's cooked. You see it with pasta a lot because the sauce soaks into the noodles, vegetables and meat in curries absorb the flavor better given more time. Not sure if the same principle applies to fried rice though.
I usually add a little less than a tablespoon of soy per cup of rice but it's a "to taste" kind of thing, add it slowly until you're happy with the flavor. -

Fresh cooked rice will make a sticky mess and doesn't cook quite the same. There is a change when you cool the rice thats already been cooked.
Fridge rice cooks nice and clean, doesn't leave shit stuck to the pan just do it hot and quick and the flavor of the rice becomes more concentrated and condensed. It tastes so much better.
There probably some scientific explanation behind it.
Its worth waiting one night , tastes twice as good and easier to cook.

I'd probably ask you what drugs you could get and try to determine whether or not we could chill and get fucked up or if you're too unstable to trust while high.
