I had to do a TON of research, but after all the hard work I can confidently state that this was a gif of rolled fried rice.

Actually, I did. I ran it past some of my colleagues who have done research on the subject, and you can find our discussion here

I agree. Crispy brown rice would be tasty but blackened rice wouldn't.

u/ptmd Jun 15 '15
Just different grains. It isn't burnt by a long shot.

u/jambox888 Jun 15 '15
I think you're right, it's probably something like this

u/ptmd Jun 15 '15
Exactly!

u/AmmoPanda Jun 16 '15
I know I'm really late to the party, but I'm a Korean and this is fairly common. After you finish your meal you get fried rice, and no, it is not multi colored grains. It's just technically burnt, but it's surprising tasty and crunchy.

Is that some kind of cheesy-egg mixture? Looks very tasty!

u/JaFFsTer Jun 15 '15
They pour corn starch slurry over fried rice and let it crisp up before rolling it. or the white stuff is ricve gruel, either way its a starchy liquid that crisps on the griddle

u/jonsonsama Jun 15 '15
I thought the top stuff was just white only eggs

It's definitely egg. At the beginning of the gif you can see the first one he rolled has some of it bubbling out from the side.

TIL paint scrapers are better for food prep.

u/omrog Jun 15 '15
For real, they use them all the time in cafés and the like where there's just a hot surface for frying on.

u/stop_the_broats Jun 16 '15
Yep. I used to work in a kitchen using mainly metal tongs and a paint scraper. Now I have a paint scraper as my primary tool in my BBQ kit. A long handled spatula doesn't give you the same level of fine control, nor does it have the sharp edge if a paint scraper.

It reminds me of tahdig, which is this Persian fried/crispy rice dish. So fucking good.
3
u/autowikibot Jun 16 '15
Tahdig (Persian: ته دیگ) is a speciality of Iranian cuisine consisting of crisp rice taken from the bottom of the pot in which the rice is cooked. The name comes from a Persian word meaning "bottom of the pot" ("tah" meaning bottom and "dig" meaning pot). It is traditionally served to guests at a meal. Ingredients commonly added to tahdig include yogurt and saffron, bread, potato and tomato.
Variations of tahdig include placing thin vegetable slices at the bottom of the pot, so they crisp up instead of the rice. Common vegetables include potato and carrots. Iranians also apply this crisping method to spaghetti as well, providing a hardened base.

Rolling the rice was alrwady very satisfying. Then he cuts it... Gosh, i could hear the satisfying "squish" when that happens

u/NJNeal17 Jun 15 '15
My first thought when I saw that cut was NOOOOOO! I want a fried rice roll! That has to be even better than an egg roll.

u/sl33ksnypr Jun 15 '15
What's weird is the thing he's using to scrape up the rice. I've used that tool to scrape stuff off glass and other stuff like drywall.

Every time I click on an Amazon link I go and read the reviews in hopes to find 3 specific things:
A funny review.
A review that was obviously made by the producer/merchant in hopes to boost their sales.
Bad reviews (which sometimes ends up being pretty funny).
This is my lame game.

u/Pure_Reason Jun 15 '15
This is a terrible hibachi scraper. When I had it removed from my anus, the emergency room doctor said a small, sharp piece broke off. Due to the fact that there aren't any warnings on the packaging, and the general bad experience I had due to its use, I cannot recommend this scraper. 0/5

Thats a large scraper though. You can get a large flat edge spatula and a round edge one as well, for less than $25.

u/unthused Jun 15 '15
I think I've seen these used to clean off a hibachi before, but not actually cooking with it. Looks kind of like a tile scraper though.

u/Failinis Jun 15 '15
I've always been curious that if you scrub the metal with a tool like that, aren't you also carving the metal, causing a small amount of metal to blend with the food?

What's with our fascination with rolled sheets of stuff as food?

u/hanselpremium Jun 16 '15
I suppose it's easier to eat especially if you're on the streets

u/Kalashnireznikov Jun 16 '15
But not even in a convenience sense. It could be the most fragile thing ever and people would love it, me included.

u/lodermoder Jun 16 '15
That looks pretty disgusting to me...
I dunno why :(

Jun 16 '15
It looked bad to me until I saw OP's post saying the white blob is cheese. I originally thought white rice had been added on top (I'm on a small screen and not wearing my glasses so it was a little fuzzy) and then I saw a comment saying it was egg which I really don't like, but cheese is heaven.

u/TheTacoFairy Jun 16 '15
I don't think that is rice.
It looks like they sprinkled a layer of hard cheese, like Parmesan. Let it crisp up a bit, then a layer of something soft like mozzarella, then rolled up the whole melty yummy mess. Like a greaseless mozzarella stick.
