Zaynab's fried egg / fried rice is something I could whip up right now without a grocery run, so that's my true 15 minute dinner winner!

[ajzayas]

tried zaynab's egg fried rice tonight because i had no food and was too depressed to get out of bed let alone cook a full meal. made a few substitutions with what i had- threw in some rice vinegar since i didn't have sesame oil, used onions instead of scallions, sprinkled on some furikake... it was the best thing i've eaten in weeks. i feel so much better already, thank you for sharing something so simple and healing <3

BA: You have 15 minutes
DeVonn: Say less (busts out mandoline, mortar & pestle, and pastry brush)

[nygreenguy]

Zaynab's "I measure with my heart" is one of the best lines I have heard!

[jackaguy]

Loved how mindful Hana's dish was of the time constraint. Prepackaged slaw, one pan, flexibility on ingredients. Looks great!

[zmedia]

zaynab saying "i measure with my heart" - using this in my life for everything moving forward.

[TubeeNviouss]

Got to love Brad. Cause everyone just has swordfish steaks just laying around the house. lol

[Waverer]

Everyone: chill recipes with little prep time
Devonn: steak with 3 sauce layers

[clairestamborski]

I've made Shilpa's recipe 3 or 4 times at this point. and IT IS GENIUS. texture, acidity, speed, all while being a well rounded meal. cannot recommend enough.

[sophiak]

I love how generous they all are with the butter, cream and soy sauce/salt. It shows that the secret to nice food is really a lot about fat and salt. That's why take-away food and restaurant food is always so nice I guess :D

[Onewheelordeal]

I've fried maybe a million eggs for breakfast and love a runny yolk. Never tried tearing the white around the yolk, genius tip

[MasterClasster]

I can totally relate! My 15 minute go-to meal is ordering food online for 1 minute and then waiting for 14 minutes for it to arrive.

[roberta]

Zaynab was pretty much the only one who understood the assignment

[PepperTheDeadly]

most chaotic dish i've ever seen Chris make and I'm loving it

[brittanymlanders]

I love these videos because you let the chefs highlight their personal styles, on & off the plate. They are all unique and insert their own vibes into the food they’re making.

[MurasakiDonkey]

Here I am, pregnant and hungry at 10pm, watching this video and wishing I had the stuff to do Zaynab's recipe, when I suddenly remember: I do have everything for this recipe! And omg! this is a game-changer! It is so good and easy, and 15 min is PLENTY of time to make it.
Thank you so much for this delicious and easy recipe, Zaynab! :D

[John-ibxd]

That chickpea and spinach dish is something I need! Super easy, always have those ingredients (minus the pickled vegetables) and it's straightforward. But the flavors and the finished product are unique, much different than how I usually make chickpeas when I am being lazy.

[JoeyShip]

I make that fried egg and rice dish ALL THE TIME. It’s incredible…but I also add kimchi. Seriously, I can eat It for breakfast or dinner. It’s perfect.

[janettelopez]

I love Zeinab’s cooking and her personality! I’d love to see more of her

[natasyaserenaa]

omg chris how have I NEVER thought of putting rice cakes in curry???? that actually sounds amazing. so doing that for dinner.
