hello hi everyone! Wesley here. Today we're diving back into our series on fusion foods with a shot at a dish that many of the Bay Area locals have been asking for, which is the crispy bacon fried rice found at the Woo Can Cook fried rice pop up. For those not familiar, we have been doing a fun fried rice pop up at a few locations around the Bay Area this summer serving a number of the fried rices created in this series. Our Crispy Bacon Fried Rice is, as the name implies, a chicken and bacon fried rice tossed with a gochujang and hoisin sauce, and finished with a 2 minute sear for a nice crispy texture. 

Then finally (as promised), I thought I'd also use this as an opportunity to dive into one of our newest menu additions, which is our fried rice burrito, where we top our fried rice with some quick pickled shallots, cilantro crema, and wrap it up in a flour tortilla for the burrito that you didn't know you needed in your life basically until you just saw this thumbnail. Hope you try it.

It will be out on Friday September 17, 2021, so bookmark the recipe here, and be sure to subscribe and hit the bell on YouTube to get notified when it’s out!

Woo Can Cook is a series where we reproduce fun foods and recipes from my childhood. Some of them are authentically Chinese and/or pan-Asian, but a lot of them are odd Americanized versions that I inherited from my parents and grandparents while growing up in the Bay Area/California.

We're live streaming every Tues/Thurs at 6:30PM PST, with new recipes out every Friday!
