I'm sure Uncle Roger would approve. The spring onions are being used as garnish! Also it looks like they're using a proper wok! They're a wok fuckboi like Uncle Gordon!

Seriously though, it looks great. Nothing wrong with throwing hot dog into fried rice. Fried rice is basically a fancy way to eat up leftovers anyway! It sounds like something you could get in a Hong Kong diner/Cha Chaan Teng

Plus spam fried rice is a pretty popular thing, I'm sure hot dogs are similar.

I've been rocking Spam fried rice for years now. Excellent protein choice. Pan fry the spam brown first

Uncle Roger disapproves in his video reviewing William Osman who uses hot dogs.

I bet appearance is a 4, but taste is an 11/10

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Yes, tastes way better than it looks!

[–] huginn@feddit.it 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Personal preference is spam fried rice but I'd eat the fuck out of that

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Thank you! Spam fried rice is pretty amazing, too!

[–] Jlafs@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Nice! I grew up with this!

My family was Air Force, and when I was a young kid we were stationed on Clark base in the Philippines. Hot dog fried rice is one of my best memories. Our maid, Nita, would make it for my brother and I and I love it to this day. I need to whip me up a batch, now!

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Wow, such a nice childhood memory!

[–] 8ace40@programming.dev 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Looks very similar to arroz chaufa from Peru!

[–] jelloeater85@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Peruvian food is amazing!

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'll have to look it up!

Any tips on cooking this? I assume the hot dog bits cook pretty fast? And I assume they give a lot of flavor, are there any seasonings I should ease up on to let the hot dog shine?

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I'd be careful with the salt, since the hot dogs are already somewhat salty. Otherwise, go nuts! I find the hot dog flavor to be pretty strong, so I tend to add in strong flavors (e.g. Sichuan peppercorn, kimchi) that can stand up to it. I like to cook the hot dogs in the oil first to draw out the fat and flavors of the hot dogs so that in turn can coat the rice and other ingredients.

I would have gone with bacon personally (if budget permits)

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Bacon's great. Have you had bacon kimchi fries rice? Amazing.

[–] dis_honestfamiliar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nope. If you have, do post an image of it. Sounds interesting.

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I strangely don't have any pictures of it. I'll post it up next time I make it.

[–] galoisghost@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

What kind of hotdog? Are we talking Oscar Mayer weiner or something a bit more fancy like a bratwurst, chorizo, kransky, lap chong?

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Nathan's, because that's what I had on hand. Equally good with any that you mentioned, though. Especially lap chong 🤤

[–] Marsupial@quokk.au 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Aren’t those “fancy” ones all sausages?

[–] galoisghost@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah but you know that have a better reputation
