Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

For most of us, the prospect of cooking rice is not a difficult one. In fact, we would go so far as to say that we would rather handle it ourselves.

After all, we all know how we like our rice and there is no reason to stray from the methods that got us this far. Meanwhile, there are others who are a bit lazier and they may actually learn more about this next device.

The robots are here and they are about to take over our rice-cooking habits. Food Junction is here to showcase the robotic wok in a spellbinger video and we have all sorts of thoughts on the matter. Fried rice can now be made by machine! We agree with the description on the video, this video is an absolute must watch.

If you are the sort of person who thinks that you could use a hand when it comes to making fried rice, this is your perfect chance to learn more.

We had some serious questions as to how a robot was going to fry our rice but the video does a really good of explaining it. It even makes us wonder how we got by for so long without a robotic wok of our own.

Regardless of how you may feel about having your rice fried by a robot, you have to agree on one thing. This robot is cleverly programmed. From the looks of it, they have truly thought of everything. The pan that is used in these instances actually spins over the stove flame, which is one of the coolest parts of the clip.

The pan spins as the automatic tools are lowered in. This is how the eggs are scrambled. The automatic tools also work to combine the rice with the remaining ingredients that are being used. Thanks to these tools, each of the components is cooked in the proper manner, without anything going to waste.

This is not the only robotic wok that whips up stir-fried food, so be on the lookout for more of these machines to come along. You can see more videos of it on display below:

This is the future.
