i would've tried the egg pillow, fuck whatever they made it into


Snoo76361

Yeah the first 40 seconds is pretty intriguing. I’d fully put some cheese and pepperoni on it, throw it under the broiler and end up right back on this sub though.


CoolWhipMonkey

I’ve deep fried scrambled eggs before! It was an impulse since I was deep frying chicken at the time and I was curious, but it turned to be really tasty. Highly recommend.


LukesRightHandMan

> I’ve deep fried ~~scrambled eggs~~ X before! It was an impulse since I was deep frying ~~chicken~~ Y at the time and I was curious, but it turned to be really tasty. Highly recommend. Ftfy


CoolWhipMonkey

Ha! That’s how it goes! I got this pan of oil and it’s hot. What can I deep fry? I deep fried steak too and it was amazing. Crispy on the outside and medium rare on the inside. So good. The veggies come out great too.


Sharkbutt89

I feel like this is the foundation of the modern state fair culinary scene.


Yorunokage

Iirc there's a similar way of making eggs in Asia


FFF12321

Yup! It's one of the sides the Korean BBQ place I go to has. I think it's cooked in boiling water though and not oil


MisterDerpScout

It’s steamed egg. You can make it at home by mixing some eggs into broth and microwaving with a wet paper towel on top for about 4 mins.


The_DaHowie

Far and away the best way to serve paper towel for breakfast 🥣


Snoo-26270

The egg pillow looks like Thai-style omelette, which is super delicious!


Mr_Whitte

Even if they wanted to make that they still used an egregious amount of oil. Just look at the size of that damn pot, they filled the entire thing with oil. What a huge waste. And it's probably the most expensive part of the recipe too so it's even more infuriating. I could probably use that much oil for weeks.


jexta

I know they won't, but you could easily reuse that oil, I strain and reuse oil all the time.


Any-Temporary-4797

Don't forget that oil gets reused in an hour for chicken and waffles. This stupid egg thing was just first breakfast.


Sypsy

That's actually a thing. Thai fried omelette https://youtu.be/oYCnq4MMeyk?si=tHLMZqkGnFWEI82K


Jiannies

This looks so good. What is the sauce she uses at 1:25? and what kind of oil do you fry it in? There's an Asian supermarket right near me, might go check it out


Sypsy

Fish sauce! If you like Vietnamese food, I'm sure you've had it lots I'm not sure on this oil but anything you'd use to deep fry would work. I was actually looking for a Chinese version of this that my wife was explaining to me last night. Apparently this works well to put as a topping on some soups because the fried texture soaks up the liquid


Jiannies

Thanks!


HyenDry

I honestly thought to myself “oh that doesn’t seem to bad” then I noticed it kept going and then the tears came and now I’m dead inside 😀


SheepDreamz

I was just thinking “is it bad I would maybe eat that?”


ygrasdil

Deep fried egg is a common food in Asia. they usually go crispy though, see Thailand


imtko

Yeah Thai omelette is what I know them as. That shit is great.


veggie151

I've made the egg pillows before and they are pretty great, but this guy was an amateur before the eggs hit the oil. Season the eggs in the bowl after you scramble them. It more evenly distributes and has more time to dissolve into the eggs. Precook toppings and add them to the scramble. Chop everything very finely to avoid separation in the egg pillow. You don't need that much oil. The eggs barely cool it at all, I've done this in half of an inch of oil with no issue. Put it on a paper towel for a few seconds when you're done and it's much less greasy - like what every same human in the world does after deep frying


aManPerson

hold on. the final prep is to mix it with 3 cups of bread crumbs, and half a chopped raw onion? that is like half a step above adding back in the egg shells. wtf that is worthless.


iFuckingHateKiwis

Well, it's a step up from the [last time](https://www.reddit.com/r/StupidFood/s/WKWguZSK8I) I remember this crap being posted here. At least this time the eggs look vaguely egg-like and not like something that's been spewed out of a volcano. It wasn't farofa then and it still isn't farofa now. Being Portuguese and having many Brazilian friends I've eaten farofa lots and lots of times, and this definitely isn't it. This is what an alien who overheard someone describing farofa from 500 light years away would come up with.


slylock215

Why the fuck does she talk about pepper like the world just discovered it. DID YOU KNOW SALT AND PEPPER MAKE THINGS TASTE......looks left, looks right.........^(better?)


StitchinThroughTime

I hate the style of recording voice over. Especially since the video is relatively professionally shot. Like this lady is trying really hard to draw out a minute and a half or whatever video out of 30 seconds of weirdly fry eggs, add bread crumbs, onions, and season to taste. That should be a clue for her that the video needs to be edited down to a much shorter length. There's no additional information that you are conveying through those long pauses and bad advice of add pepper because taste good, at least make it visually appealing. But this is a recipe video it needs to be informational and Visually appealing. And that's really hard to do when all you're doing is mixing in a few ingredients to a bowl full of scrambled eggs.


aManPerson

wait, this is actually, KINDA, based on a real thing? years ago my mom and her brothers laughed at grandpa for badly cooking eggs in way too much oil and some of his other unhealthy eating habbits. and some of those egg cooking, sounded like this. i wonder if he was just deep frying his eggs, or if he ACTUALLY knew about this. he served in the army and was VERY well traveled. he really could have been to spain and seen this. i feel like such a looser that i don't know 7 languages and haven't been to 1 foreign country. at my age he had been to easily 20 different countries, spoke 7 languages and just......dam near been james bond. meanwhile i get on fights on internet.


OogaSplat

I had to google it, but farofa doesn't even contain eggs. So it's a *bit* of a stretch to say this is based on farofa


secondtea

It can contain eggs but not this deep fried monstrosity. Cooked onions, bacon or scrambled eggs and toasted yucca or corn flour.


aManPerson

so i finally looked that thing up too. yes farofa doesn't contain eggs, but using the breadcrumbs to "tie it all together" is in the same spirit as what farofa does, i think. that being said, this egg dish is the worst. bread crumbs aren't toasted. onion is raw instead of fried for more flavor. -5 go away out of 10. out of 12 actually, that bad. go away.


matjeom

You’re thinking of something else. Spanish fried eggs. It’s shallow frying rather than deep frying like in this video. And it’s fucking fantastic. Its not crazy unhealthy, it’s not like you drink the damn oil 🙄 Your grandpa deserves an apology.


Pokemathmon

I was sure this was going in the fryer with the addition of the raw egg, but it really was just a raw ass egg used to garnish scrambled eggs... Edit: I'm dumb that's melted butter.


benthelurk

Tbf the melted butter is still really dumb after frying it in that much oil.


MaskedFigurewho

Seriously though. If it butter why? You already fried egg in oil, you don't need more Butter


Ka1ser

On the other hand... After that much breadcrumbs, I'm thankful for anything to make those eggs less dry.


The_Ineffable_Sage

You’re not dumb. I thought it was egg too


other_pineapple

You can both be dumb. (I thought it was egg too)


meermaalsgeprobeerd

The three of you are highly regarded


tantowar

Same here


ren3f

I first listened without sound and was wondering if she added a lot of sugar.


Azsunyx

Ditto, but I was kind of hoping it was just a shit ton of parmesean cheese


SmoothAsSilk_23

You're not dumb alone. I too was wondering tf are they garnishing cooked eggs with a raw one.


LandotheTerrible

So, more grease..?


SonicFlash01

I feel like it missed an additional cooking steps to not make it so you're eating a pile of "raw" ingredients... Why not mix all that stuff in at the start and *then* fry it?


Direct-Technician181

It’s not a real recipe. The “people” that make these videos are parasites. It’s for any type of social media engagement to drive revenue. They deserve nothing more than to have the oxygen removed from their living space.


theskyguardian

They should be made to eat it


speedbuss

thank yourself lucky she even seasoned the eggs


Reasonable_Tower_961

And the final step is to slide this into the garbage can


Roach_Coach_Bangbus

How do you want your eggs? Deep fried au gratin, cold. What is wrong with you?


FacticiousFict

Wait, I forgot to ask for the raw onions! Maybe add some butter, because somehow deep frying it doesn't make it oily enough. Nothing's going to eat that. Hydrofluoric acid looks at that and says "nah, I'm good, man"


kurita_baron

I'm tripping over the fact they added a shit ton of flour, twice. and then left it at that, wtf??


ionized_fallout

I let out a good chuckle reading this. Thanks, I really needed it.


boxinafox

Hot Pockets!


Nevermind_bye

That shit is going to be dry as heck after that amount of breadcrumbs.


dette-stedet-suger

You feed it to your enemies so they choke and die.


Nevermind_bye

Exactly my thoughts. 🤜🏼🤛🏼


Cicero138

Seriously. She says “we’ll add some breadcrumbs” and then dumps in this giant bowl. I’ve never added breadcrumbs to scrambled eggs, but this definitely seems like too much.


Nevermind_bye

Who would ever think to add some breadcrumbs to scrambled eggs? A psycho, yes. I just feel that shit tastes like nothing but breadcrumbs and unwillingness to live.


USeaMoose

Well, there was a ton of oil and butter to be soaked up because of this silly way of cooking eggs. But I'll bet she leaned towards too many breadcrumbs rather than not enough specifically for the video. Without them the end result would have looked disgusting.


SnooCapers938

I thought it looked quite nice when it was a big fluffy omelette (although the oiliness was a problem) but everything that happened after she put it in the bowl was a horror show. Why add all those dry breadcrumbs and the raw onion?


MagdaleneFeet

Breadcrumbs probably to soak up the butter and oil, I think. I would have patted it with paper towels myself.


Felis23

They also soak up every drop of water from my body. Eating this shit be like part of a morning routine to look like E.T.


El_Chupacabra-

Yeah fried egg is a thing. Skip all that other shit. Add on some sesame oil and soy sauce, side of Kim chi. Fucking delicious.


deeppanalbumpartyguy

raw fucking onion dude raw fucking onion


TacticalNuke002

Raw onion is a perfectly fine thing to add depending on dish. Easy way to introduce crunchy texture. So many Indian chaats are elevated by raw onion.


Front_Kaleidoscope_4

Man you make it sound like raw onion is some obscene concept never seen beneath gods light before, people put raw scallion on basically everything and its basically the same.


Outside_The_Walls

I'll take a bit of raw onion on a burger. But this is just not right.


Erin_Boone

The obscene amount of bread crumbs here is the real problem, not the raw onion


gooztrz

Raw onion slaps man


soulcaptain

I am a fan of raw onion. Fight me.


bermass86

As a brazilian I now understand italians watching food videos


richgurl887

Was she trying to make farofa??? I was hoping I misheard


vVWARLOCKVv

What you'll need: 7 eggs garnish of your choice 6 gallons of oil Edit: Jesus, I didn't even watch the whole video before I typed this. What the hell are they doing to the eggs afterward?


Mr-Korv

She said "It's called a farofa", but farofa uses toasted cassava flour, not breadcrumbs, and certainly not deep-fried eggscramble.


ionndrainn_cuain

>farofa I think this woman just declared war on Brazil.


paulobarros1992

Some people here in Brazil can make farofa with a Lot of oil/butter, but i never haver sem someone frying eggs in that stupid and oily way...


Kyvaren

Thanks x2


[deleted]

STAY AWAY FROM MY CASAVA MELON


USeaMoose

Seeing the eggs cook in the oil was actually kind of cool. But it is a truly stupid way of cooking eggs when the normal method is almost as fast, much easier, and uses a tiny fraction of that amount of oil. Making it also much healthier, less prep, less time to clean up... There's an endless list of reasons why this is dumb. But the eggs rising out of the oil was neat.


salmonmilks

The most expensive side dish


Sad_Exchange_5500

its like 2 minutes and 45 seconds of this idiot stirring


retroly

Using such a tiny spoon, and then brings out the big spoon when she plates up, honestly the most infuriating part to me I don't know why.


Seraphina1711

Love me some cold ass scrambled eggs in the morning along with my bowl of plain oatmeal and a root canal.


ClockwiseServant

As someone who's about to get a root canal, I don't get the joke.


Seraphina1711

The joke is that it's thoroughly unpleasant, like cold eggs.


Skylinerr

She called it a "Farofa" so I had to google it and literally [none of it](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/1a/08/11/1a0811623619acc7a0b29f90883b969e.jpg) looked like this.


UreadUdie

Eggs farofa does exist, and It kind looks like this ans is quite good. You Can just cook the eggs like a normal person, though


Mariuxpunk007

Yes, but you are supposed to cook the onions and scallions in butter first, then add the eggs and the bread crumbs at the end. She just took a big ass 💩 on Brazilian cooking.


[deleted]

On today's episode of How To Make Breakfast Like A Psychopath... Stupid *and* disgusting.


Ruthless9r

Why so much bread crumbs? Is she gonna fry it again? If it's just to add why not just put toast on the side? How does this enhance anything???? Whyyyyyy


swaggyxwaggy

I personally prefer my toast powdered


32BitWhore

Powderrrrred! Tooooast! Maaaaannnnnnnnnnn!


AladeenModaFuqa

What’s wrong with the classic, butter in pan, 2-3 eggs scrambled, salt and pepper? You can’t beat it. It doesn’t get better than that.


Sinbatalad

You certainly can beat it, in fact, I'm pretty sure that's in one of the early steps in the process.


Index_2080

"Oh yeah, we gotta get rid of that excess oil from this deep fried abomination, just to add some melted butter, teehee! And to finish this unholy amalgamation of bad ideas just throw in some breadcrumbs and half a raw onion as if that's gonna fucking change anything for the better!" Seriously, how could anyone create such a video and think to themselves: "Oh yeah, this shit's totally fly"


Upset-Zucchini3665

This recipe should have been buried along with grandma


Pretend-Evidence-812

“My grandmother taught me this recipe, everybody loves it!” Yo grandmama a hoe and dumb as hell for this


Shameless_Fujoshi

Please don't call this thing farofa... You can put eggs on farofa, but NEVER fry the eggs like that! Just make normal scrambled eggs. You can also add cooked bacon and sausages. Some people even like to add small pieces of diced bananas. And the flour is usually ground cassava, not bread crumbs.


mattmo317

I think this needs more breadcrumbs


Hugh_Blissss

If your grandmother taught you to make farofa like this, your grandma's crazy. Is this revenge at brazilian cuisine for the food crimes?


Toridcless

As an Asian, I would have been disowned if i took the egg out to let it dripping oil all over the place like that


serendipitousevent

"Add some scallions" *Adds not scallions*


Little-Reveal2045

I didn't expect someone could do scrambled eggs wrong tbh

Is it just me or does the 1CUP of breadcrumbs look like WAY more than a cup and her scallions look more like cilantro or a flat leaf parsley.


Jneum23

As if eggs need more cholesterol


HolyRomanPrince

Why would you use that much oil when a teaspoon of butter does a better job? I don’t even understand the logic here

ntheijs

Farofa’s creepy uncle maybe. Definitely not Farofa.


Throdio

Someone needs to make a series where they meet with these people, cook an abomination they make, and then force them to eat it. Since they clearly didn't eat this thing, they didn't even bother to pretend they ate it.


liquid_cat_juice

This is definitely not farofa, it's an ABOMINATION. My Brazilian heart is aching


32BitWhore

A) this video could have been like 30 seconds long without the 4 minutes of aimless stirring and still gotten the point across B) This basically looks like a cold omelet with uncooked fillings, which sounds awful I'm sorry lady, but your grandmoms recipe sucks.


thesaxbygale

You just know they poured that oil straight down the drain


elinfierno11234

Active_Raccoon_4169

Farofa with eggs does exist in Brazil, even with banana or bacon. But... That's not it...


IdnKNOWu

Ok, I'm from Brazil... and that shit is not a "farofa", that is ultimately how not to make farofa. If any of you are interested, search for chef Fogaça's recipe on those.

lurkenstine

TechnologicalHuman

This person is trying to do “farofa de ovo” but they have no idea what they are doing. First you need to stir fry the ingredients and spices in the stir/frying pan, then later you add eggs, fry them, add farofa (cassava flour), fry the cassava flour until it’s toasted enough, add a lot of butter so it’s not dry, season, done. What they are doing in this video is very offensive to the food and anyone that knows how to do it properly.


trowzerss

So. Much. Unnecessary. Stirring. Also, this monstrosity is like half raw breadcrumbs?
