A video about how to cook egg fried rice by the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) sent Asians of the Internet into a tizzy, after a London-based Malaysian stand-up comedian mocked it.

In a reaction video on his YouTube channel, Nigel Ng poked fun at how the recipe by BBC Food called for the rice to be cooked without washing it first, then instructed users to rinse off the rice after simmering it for 10 minutes.
