When lunch or dinner time comes and there’s nothing to eat, throwing in a few ingredients and frying up some rice will usually save the day.

Simple, easy and delicious, egg fried rice is a dish that most of us know how to cook.

Uncle Roger, the Malaysian comedian who went viral for critiquing a BBC food host’s rice cooking techniques is now critiquing Jamie Oliver’s egg fried rice.

Suffice to say, he’s no more impressed with the professional chef than his last celebrity host encounter.

He believes the wok hey taste and smell is essential in an egg fried rice and there’s no such thing as ‘saucepan hey’.

Uncle Roger’s ancestors are crying at Jamie Oliver’s fried rice

Once the pan gets hot, Jamie starts off with olive oil to cook his egg fried rice.

As if the first errors weren’t enough, Jamie goes on to put the chopped spring onions into the pan, to Uncle Roger’s utter dismay.

Using a packet of instant rice does nothing to soothe his dissatisfaction, though Jamie’s tip to chill the rice before cooking offers a slight comfort.

As the fried rice cooks, he amusingly says,

You hear sizzling, I hear my ancestors crying.
