I’m going to follow quaff’s short form scoring and like Bell will rate my own dish, which obviously doesn’t count, but I think does serve some purpose as a follow up reflection on one’s own effort.

It’s a basic lazy weeknight fried rice that seems like it might have been posted here as an afterthought, if it didn't look like anon’s first attempt at fried rice. There was obviously no effort put into the presentation, but it’s definitely something I’d eat. I’d recommend going back to the basics and working on your knife skills.

My main criteria for challenge goals is using the ingredient/theme in multiple and unique ways, which you definitely did. It also looks delicious (and props for going 125; everyone always seems to do 127, which is too much when you’re still going to torch/sear it). My only complaint about the presentation is that you can’t really see the rice, you could have taken the pic from a different angle so you couldn’t see the slices of steak that you kind of botched, and the scallions are a little too thick, but that’s honestly just nitpicking.

This sounds really great, and based on the pics looks well executed. My only real issue is with the presentation; either go all the way with chopping the cilantro or leave it whole. And while I love chili oil I’d prefer to eat this with it on the side, though that would have taken away from the presentation, which at the same time gives me heartburn (yes, I’d still use that much chili oil even if it was on the side – I just don’t like to see it all there at once, and all on the bottom).
