As an Asian this whole thread feels so weird and I can’t tell if people actually eat rice with ketchup or they are tricking me into trying an abomination
French here. I admit I used to eat rice with ketchup when I was a kid. I’m disgusted with myself thinking about it now.
I wouldn’t say it’s common, but I also wouldn’t say it’s unheard of…and I would never put it past Americans to try an odd condiment application.
Honestly though, when you look at the ingredients, it’s not too drastically far off from the ingredients of a sauce you might specifically put together as part of a more traditional rice dish: tomatoes, vinegar, onion, garlic, ginger, coriander, cumin… bit heavy on the sugar but a lot of sauces in Asian cooking are even sweeter.
I agree it seems repulsive on the surface to me too, but now that I’ve been thinking about it…I kinda wanna try it.
Butter, parmesan, salt and pepper
Cheese with rice? Damn
Remove butter, put EVO, remove parmisan, put Parmigiano Reggiano, you have a masterpiece
I tried searching for EVO but just came up with a pan/bowl type. Could you tell an uninformed fool (me) what is EVO?
Soy sauce
Fish sauce and butter is nice too.
But like, with a bit of mayonnaise, right?
- sesame oil
Alright, now we’re moving towards a stir fry, ngl kinda want a stir fry rn now.
Soy sauce.
Who the hell puts ketchup in rice??
Stuffed bell peppers you can probably substitute the tomato sauce with ketchup, idk if it would be any good, but you could I guess.
Kids. I remember doing this when I was 8-10.
Those bottles of chili crisp with the face of an angry/disappointed looking Asian lady on the label. So good.

So good! Ty their other sauces as well. I think there’s four or five available in the US.Which one should I try? I think there is this one with beans in it, right?
I cook with the black beans one. It’s delicious in Sichuan Dry Fried Green Beans.
Here’s a good video on their whole line. They talk about what’s available in the US of course.
Thanks!
If you’re asking who’d put rice with ketchup - my sister used to put ketchup on her popcorn. Microwave popcorn. Pre-buttered.
I’m sorry you had to see such depravity, and so close to home
your sister might be swedish

Butter and salt. Or soy sauce. Anything except ketchup really…
Well, how would you use ketchup if there is no ketchup, silly

And furikake!
Mayonnaise.
lazy person risotto ._.
Not even approaching risotto
was joke [.__.]
Excellent! I thought I was the only deranged person who loves freshly cooked rice with some mayo. I’ve noticed a lot of people really look down on mayonnaise for some reason, when all it is, is some egg and oil, salt optional but great IMO, and some lemon juice to complement, also optional. I feel that just goes really well with a starch like rice!
I don’t want to entirely pull the rug out from under you, but you may still be the only person who loves that. I was making what I intended to be an obviously disgusting joke. I’m sorry. :P
Well I was disgusted if it makes you feel any better.
You’re forgiven. I know I’m not the only person though, I’m Chilean and we love putting mayo on everything over there. I’m just deranged to the rest of the world lol.
An egg
Raw.
With a drizzle of dark soy sauce and a sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds.
You know what’s up.
I usually throw a bit of miso in before cooking and add avocado if I have it
How would you eat an egg without ketchup?
Japanese barbeque sauce
Blood, blood! Gallons of the stuff!
