Classic gif recipe

  • why is this Mexican because tomato paste and lemon? The random pepper?
  • frying dry rice (uncle Roger’s ancestor cri)
  • using a frying pan for absorption method of rice cooking
  • unnamed herbs/ingredients added
  • random footage of transferring tomato paste from can to Tupperware
  • 3 slices of onion, no more no less
  • don’t forget to scold the rice as it cooks Edit: Jesus. The audio…
  • presenter using suggested substitute not actual ingredient
  • add on of Nexas’ comment, practically 0 volumes or measurements mentioned.

Fucking hell just try it. Learning to cook is learning from your failures. If it succeeds, great!

Try what? Thats sort of the point of my comment mate. There’s not a coherent recipe here.

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 0 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (1 children)

Put some butter or another fat and rice in a hot pan. Cook it. Before it burns, add water and cover. Add whatever flavors you want at any point. Stop cooking the rice when it's good.

Coherent?

I’m not sure what you’re going for here. I criticise a post on gifrecipe not being a recipe and you take issue with that? Your solution seems to be for me to just shut up or try your random “recipe” (which is also not a recipe by the way). Like the whole point of a recipe is to learn to cook something, with steps and measurements.

Add whatever flavors you want at any point

Recipes with guesswork or “you figure it out” aren’t a recipe. Also I don’t see any point frying rice that isn’t cooked yet. People want to post up poorly made videos that aren’t even recipes to gifrecipe comms/threads but don’t want to learn cooking or deal with criticism when it’s apparent they don’t know what they’re doing.

I wish there was either the recipe in the gif or at least in the post. I know the other community from the other site had those guidelines. I can tell mostly what's happening but not amounts or which spices they are. This does look good though and thank you for sharing.
