Chef Ming Tsai uses T-fal ActiFry to make Larb

Chef Ming Tsai using the T-fal ActiFry for gourmet Asian cooking.

[@paulharlan6301]

I like that the man keeps it simple. Hosts on other clips are always trying sell these gadgets as the ultimate answer. The chef here does it quick, concise & manages to show viewer a simple item that can be cooked with the little machine. I didn't remember him saying at any time this was absolute anything or represent it as authentic anything, try to lighten up folks. Thanks for a good video chef, I just subscribed.

[@CraftyTami]

Wow - thanks for posting this. I love Chef Ming and watch his show whenever I see it on the listings. I had no idea that the Actifry did this. I thought it was just for french fries. I will have to look into getting one now. Thanks again!

[@brendagauthier3925]

Thank you Chef Ming for the different recipes for Actifry. Was surprise d it could be used for desserts. Love your videos!

[@kendrickmaurice5419]

sorry to be off topic but does anyone know of a tool to log back into an instagram account? I somehow forgot my password. I love any assistance you can offer me

@Kendrick Maurice Instablaster =)

[@kendrickmaurice5419]

@Roberto Kai Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@kendrickmaurice5419]

@Roberto Kai it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thanks so much you saved my ass !

[@robertokai9921]

@Kendrick Maurice you are welcome xD

[@lenovoR62]

This guy is great. I am going to buy one of these tomorrow and make the same thing you did. Thanks for the great video.

[@cornytheman]

good video i got this for xmas yesterday cant wait to make food again haha i hope spearribbs will work too xD

[@bucko12400]

For those who are so adamant that the dish here is NOT Larb, cut the guy some slack. After checking some sources, your right it's not authentic, BUT it does use several of the key ingredients found in authentic Laotian/Thai Larb. The point of this video is the ActiFry not the cuisine. He is trying to demonstrate that it is good for more than French Fries/Chips which would make it an expensive one trick pony. Clearly if you were all about authenticity you would not be using the ActFry. The point is the ease and convenience of the device. As for the use of a metal spoon, the interior is the more durable ceramic and what does he care, the pan's not his anyway.For the pronunciation critic who claims he is saying "ActiveFry", the V is labial/dental sound and would be very difficult to distinguish, and I don't hear it. I have no relationship with this guy but the internet pile-on of negativity and criticism is unnecessary.

[@foulchild]

lol.....Mr. Ming?

[@phaggood]

Even if it's as far from authentic larb as a Chicago deep-dish is from pizza marinara from Naples, it's still tasty.

[@sidramehmood1]

I bought it yesterday, after watching it from a long time

[@numberoath]

Mmm good stri-fry dish

[@user-xk2zy3ng1o]

Very good. Like to see more actifry asian recipes.

[@stelapintopinto7984]

Já exprementei...Adorei!

[@RicePumpkin]

I'm Thai and living in Esarn region. I can tell this is OBVIOUSLY NOT LARB.

[@ruampolphaobanchong6139]

Thats right "Thats NOT LARB"

[@initiald7115]

+RicePumpkin i'm sure you can tell also that's obviously not dog! RIGHT....

[@blackboxdisease]

+Initial D the thing about Thai's, is that if food is not cooked by a Thai, it isn't Thai. So if a Thai was making a big mac, it would be Thai Big Mac. If a white person made that Big Mac, well, then, it wouldn't be Thai.

[@initiald7115]

????, what it got to do with my comment??

[@PP_14]

Totally Agree with RicePumpkin, I am Thai and we don't call that LARB.

[@ther51]

wow that looks good..going to try it thanks.. Elaine :)

[@mushyman4603]

Hello there, i know it's been 8 years but how was this product. I just happen to stumble upon this video, and seen your message from 8 years ago haha, how time flies huh?

[@ancamg]

Sorry, was this actifry family size or the original size? It looked you used quite a lot of stuff. I just bought one in the gourmet edition. Only did some fries. Amazing!

[@frenchie770]

Can you make typical Asian food like fish and chicken that are mixed with potato or corn starch then usually fried then mixed with sauce ? Is it possible to get the same texture fried with this instead of oil ? Also can we make pizza quiche bread etc ?

[@patik1433]

Since I'm not eating beef at the moment fish/seafood goes great with also.

[@bevstrachan5644]

Where can I find the written recipe with measurements?

[@procyanidin7462]

My god, this is just like me throwing laundry into washing machine, press button and then ✅😂😂

[@hiskliff]

Subtítulos por favor!

[@TrentVenture]

Thats not larb,and I have a Acti-Fry. Having said that I've done what he done there. It really good with leftovers,throw some leftover meat in. Then vegies after 10 mins,and some stir fry sauce in. 10 more mins its ready & tastes great.

[@martamaureiracuevas2516]

Con toda esa verdura, cuánto jugo se genera? No se derrama por el eje central del aspa?

[@vipvickie]

what's the rice cooker he's using?

[@mariajosecarrasco775]

Genial megusta

[@cunngocbich]

May I ask whether it is still working well? Tks

[@phuongnhunguyen7975]

Can we choose temperature?

[@Aristed]

J'ai faim !

[@SuperKjscott]

Could I make Hamburger Helper in this? 😌

[@gayle2020]

yummmmmmmmmmmmmm

[@pili8747]

Hola. Porque no pone lo que va echando en español? Sería ideal. Muchas gracias

[@johnwang9914]

I'd be tempted to run with just the meat in it with some spices to brown it a bit to get the Meyer reaction going, then dump in the vegetables. Perhaps the meatball cycle for the meat followed by the wok or international cycle for after the veggies have been added or just add more time to the previous cycle and there's always just using the french fries cycle for everything.

[@JennyQueensland]

Hi Chef Ming Tsai , may I know which model nr. is that machine ? thanks

[@ronbrett1875]

Can you cook sausage and potatoes at the same time

[@DrSleep00]

i don't care if 'its Not Larb'!! even if its just meat and veg, I'm here to see the Actifry demonstrated before i buy.

[@greenmelon6387]

Ricky Roma Did you end up buying it? If so how's it workign out?

[@DrSleep00]

@green melon. no havent got it yet.still on my list though.

[@cippo1]

gefällt mir, aber wo ist das rezept. Nice, where are the recipe? Thank you for Help me. Grüsse aus der Schweiz. *****

[@bblondonfamily5044]

Yummy juice

[@jayanabelle1]

hello, nice recipe, but could you send me the recipe?? quantity, type of oil, etc... Thank's in advance

[@hiskliff]

subtítulos por favor!

[@vintage31]

Making larb in an ActiFry makes as much sense as making a sous-vide tuna sandwich.

[@daoyinyang]

I'm surprised you even know what Larb is (assuming you knew what larb is prior to this video) I love Larb and i never use silly products to make them. All you need is a wok and a huge bowl to mix it in.

[@vintage31]

I've been in love with Thai food since my first experience in 1969. I make a very acceptable larb myself - as you point out, it's so easy and delicious. I can't imagine what Ming Tsai thought he was doing "making" larb in a machine!

[@jiezhang2086]

Good

[@heidilein2815]

autsch, mit dem Löffel auf Teflon :)

[@user-ib4xz3wx5y]

👍👍👍👌

[@vintage31]

Seems like Ming doesn't read his comments!

[@sairagul6262]

Is it available in Pakistan?

[@jimajams7080]

It's spelled tefal here in Australia. ..

[@sabrinadondorp]

same as in holland.. its a dutch brand ;)

[@Watcher3223]

Sabrina Dondorp Tefal is French.

[@sabrinadondorp]

***** i never knew that LOL... its so old that brand that i dont know any better...

[@vintage31]

What happened to you Ming? That may an interesting concoction but it's about as removed from larb as I can imagine. And you were once my favorite television chef. And I can make larb in about 10 minutes - real larb.

[@nukettunakeles6065]

No need to stay and jump all the ingredients, you can dust around and the food is ready

[@vintage31]

Nuket Keles You wish!

[@nukettunakeles6065]

actually! cooking enjoying me T-Fal can do the dusting ;)

[@feeonahfeenix7225]

it really doesnt matter what the recipe is you could still make larb with the correct ingredients and seasonings in the actifry. you dont have to follow tfal recipes to use the product. its the concept that is the point in my opinion.

[@vintage31]

Except that it would take less than half the time to make it correctly. I'm not talking about that - I'm talking about a once fascinating chef stooping this low - making something and calling it larb when it bears absolutely no resemblance to larb (or laab). I'm just saying that Ming, with his overdone and phony enthusiasm should know better - and probably does. I guess he needs the money.

[@apezenteur]

I dont't very understand when he speack ( I'm french ) Can somebody write me the recipe please ( I understand onions, beef, peppers, carotts, and ... ??? ) By advance thank you

[@jxwoon]

Jalapeno, garlic, cabbage, bell pepper, onion, carrot, fish sauce/ organic soy sauce, sambal, lime juice, ground beef.

[@ianrossguy]

sambal is also found in stores as Chilli paste.

[@daithi007]

Garlic Ginger Jalapeno Red bell pepper Yellow bell pepper Onions x2 Cabbage Carrots Soya sauce Sambal Fish sauce Lime juice Ground beef

[@johnsouthwales]

i seen this video 3 years ago but i went for a breville halogen instead.. now i have an actifry, i noticed the maximum line but this video looks well over with no problem and shall look forward to some experimenting

[@gregd6706]

Jesus Christ you should have stayed in school. Wow.

[@zombussakorn4587]

Nice receipt i will try but this is not 'larb' at all

[@wheelzwheela]

So larb isn't a misprint... Interesting.

[@YaFunklord]

I love lab gai, but somehow I get the feeling this device isn't gonna help compared to a normal frying pan. Unless you're in thailand and your apartment lacks a normal kitchen as is common there...

[@kurtrolson344]

t-fal? looool

[@sabrinadondorp]

you cant add all the veggies together... some are burned some are raw... its not as easy as its shown

[@Jakestreet]

i like how he keeps dumping things

[@initiald7115]

T-fal?? is that a copy of tefal?

[@sspicyyful]

+Initial D No. Tefal products are marketed under the brand T-fal in the USA.

[@fiagrey]

It's classier to change a brand name to avoid getting sued. :D Teflon wasn't happy about Tefal arriving in the U.S. so they filed a threat to sue that the name Tefal was too similar to their name, Teflon. Hence, Tefal is known as T-Fal in the US only.

[@hsemovski]

touched it with his clean hand ;)

[@christopherjenks4274]

this is larb? ahaha

[@FlavioMarceloSousa35]

The eternal Actifry vs Airfryer debate. I bought the latter and I'm very happy with it but I only have to cook for one; if I had to cook for an entire family, the Airfry simply wouldn't do.

[@user-we6ur2vk8s]

Vrey qood

[@mohawkmohito]

Who uses metal spoons to mix in a NONSTICK pan!? You crazy dude.

[@puipauline4300]

The real larb, we don't even use oil --"

[@rjl91788]

Could cook that in a Wok in 5 min and have it taste better.

[@trufflesniffer]

He's sponsored by 'ActiFry' but keeps calling it 'Active Fry'!

[@aminul1984]

T-Fal lol you silly Americans, in the UK it's called Tefal. Now that sounds and looks more classy doesn't it?

[@khairilanwar6051]

Kenapa lu harus diberanda teruss

[@johnabenna]

Although this dish looks nice, it is NOT larb. It's not even recognisable as larb.

[@LaoInformation]

Dear Chef Ming Tsai, There is absolutely no excuse for not doing your research on larb especially since you consider yourself a chef. Larb is a traditional Lao dish as it was invented in the country Laos by the Lao people. Thailand was simply influenced by Lao cuisine since Thailand is next to Laos. Larb is the national dish of Laos.

[@hsemovski]

Tefal...comes from French.... And that guy nobody told him he must not talk with full mouth :D

[@roversmum]

“See how great that looks?” No, it does not, it looks disgusting. I guarantee this Asian heritage guy would never dream of eating that. Not anything like larb. When I saw this idea I was excited as I have a old model of this machine. So, no, it’s really only useful for small chips like patatas bravas.

[@gregd6706]

Stick your "opinion" straight up your ass.

[@user-up9vk6zj4v]

😈😈😈😈😈😭😭😭

[@djSpinege]

hah my cats name is Ming

[@anajinn]

Looks like you need to use wooden spoons to stop scratching the coating on the pan.

[@CatsZeroWing]

Tef = teflon and al = aluminium. They've even cut the word in the wrong place!

[@Pinoteauluv]

Actually fries are good (not all brand of frosty ones...just a few ones like mc cains) but hen you try to cook meatballs or nuggets or so it will be a big mess du to the unstoable rotatipn of the plastic blade inside.when you coock something that's notbfrench fries the food will constantly tuch under th rotating plastic blade and the it can even go ino the holes where the hot air come out from!!!

[@Shortyjored88]

Oprah sent me here.

[@roamsy]

wtf is he saying "if you want it vegetarian replace the meat with soya sauce"??!!!! It dont work like that! And also could you explain how you mix white and brown rice together when they have different cooking times.

[@oneofgrace]

I always do this in my rice cooker. 1 cup white, 1 cup brown, 3 1/4 cup water. That's it.

[@klueakluea]

In Thailand. we even cook it authentically with no use of oil. This is not healthy enough.

[@yingjang89]

whatever he makes doesn't even look like larb -_-"

[@tuipora]

looks more like chinese stirfry rather than larb! I'm thai and larb requires no oil! The meat is broiled and you mix it with spring onions,shallots and parsley(also some crushed rice tossed in the pan for while) simple as that! You don't need fancy tools for this type of dish LOL why would u pick Larb dude!

[@nadhiirah]

Air fryer is better though

[@Johnwick-hk2jn]

LOL copy >

[@stacieshannon9555]

nope

[@johny12300]

This is dogś food dude !

[@indian2003]

You don't need to buy the ActiFry to make this. I make it in my wok . You don't need a wok, a frying pan will do. Imagine all the cleaning up if you use this ActiFry. Waste of money.

[@projectthirawit]

The real Larb, you can finish cooking it in 5 minutes with a simple pot and 3-4 ingredients. This is definitly not Larb. It's Junk

[@Rem694u2]

Why not use white and brown rice? Because they cook at separate times you dolt. lol

[@walkernick86]

Looks like a pointless waste of money that machine! What’s so hard about getting the ingredients and shoving it in a normal frying pan and just stirring it now and then? They will invent anything to take people’s money lol!

[@jivprod9871]

3:23 "Talk about easy". Sorry but, talk about the shape and color of your food. it's garbage... All that juicy meat lost.... Those machine are great, i use them. But not this way. This guy don't know cook. DONT COOK STEAK. Only chicken, fish, sausage or fried chicken.

[@gregd6706]

"This guy don't know cook"......BAHAHAHAHA.....this guy "doesn't know English"!!!!

[@vintage31]

Ming - you are destroying what little reputation you have left by making a complete fool of yourself. Whatever T-fal paid you to do this ridiculous series can never be enough for you to save face. Shame on you.

[@LatashaWillis]

Wow. He needs to leave those gadgets to the short red-haired lady.

[@navusx]

Looks absolutely horrible if you called it larb, it should look fresh, raw and citrusy. ActiFry may be good for lots of things but larb is definitely not one of those.

[@TVBASICINFO]

horrible recipie

[@Loukgob]

That's the worst take on "larb" I've ever seen.

[@keepoing]

doesnt not good....
