Gajah Makan: Basic Fried Rice

Ok, now as most know, cooking is a hobby of mine and after what my friend, Shar put as his personal message, most requested an explaination so here it is...

My mom was sick so she ask me to cook. So, I asked her what she wanted, I list out the things I knew how to cook. It went like this, "So, how bout, lagsagne, pasta, cream of chicken, fried chicken, or maybe even fish and chips." I was all so confident and cocky, but then my mom replied,"I want fried rice". I was like, "crikit....crikit...crikit". I had no idea how to cook fried rice, I mean not a good one exactly because I have not really taken the time to study the Asian culinary style. So I asked, Shar whether he knew, he said he did but after his first reply, I was abit unsure because it sounded too easy and abit messy. So shar said that, "Wait, I ask my mom". After I heard that I had a huge sigh of relief. Anyway, after hearing Shar's mom recipe, I felt my confidence came back. Shar wished me luck and I went on the culinary hunt to make a simple fried rice dish.

As I was preparing for the dish, I told myself, that this type of monumental point should be videotaped. So I did. Ok, first off, not easy to cook and record at the same time but hey I manage to get the important parts.

Ok, anyway, the final product was quite impressive even for me but I forgot one very important point. No matter what I cook, my mom will always say its nice. :D

First off, it's freaking not easy to video while cooking!!
Good job! :)

Second, don't you think it's time to start researching on Asian food? xD Comes in handy for times like this huh?

The nasi goreng looks delicious though *drools*
