Hi Liz, like your videos, but your content is very meat centered, can you also do some veggie dishes?

[@thespaceflower]

Never getting enough of Aunty Liz after I came across her few days back. I also came across allot of back stabbers but you keep doing what you are really good at. We love you. Thanks for helping us add some spicy to our kitchen.

[@GrumpyOldBastard]

Always do smash that like button, and sorry I tend to get a little long winded in the comments.

[@jeanpaulchristian3282]

I'll definately smash that auuuntie Eliiizabeth

I believe the modern pronunciation is “Wash your sister” sauce

[@paulwagner688]

I can almost taste that coffee sauce. The sweetness. The garlic. And batter dipped (potato starch and rice flour after all) deep fried ribs? Be still my heart and put my cardiologist on standby.

[@AuntieLiz]

Gotta keep them in business

[@PeterNg-h8y]

bloody good, I am from singapore n i cook these at times, cheers to a great chef Liz n al the very best n good success your restaurant

[@kantemirovskaya1lightninga30]

that looks amazing...Going to try this one as well. One thing i have to say is that your recipes are always doable by me... some American in N E US /snow country who likes to cook. I can find and source the ingredients and my family really enjoys the food! Keep it up PLEASE

[@cinemaocd1752]

I like that you film these in your working restaurant. It points out what a team operation it is....I've never seen such a nice rack of ribs. You definitely do get excellent produce at the market. So excited to try this at home.

[@sstillwell]

Being a life-long Kansas City resident, I'm not sure I can say that these are BETTER than properly-done BBQ - they're not the same thing at all, but my God, those look amazing! WANT!

[@ninja36inc]

they are not better unless you are trying to be cost effective like she is as a owner of a food business

[@awwwshucks443]

Just because they are both ribs doesn't mean they are the same dish. I love real BBQ, these aren't that. These do look absolutely amazing.

[@devmcclure2927]

I’m going to Singapore very soon and now I know I’m going to have to go to Kek Seafood! 😅

Make sure you go to the main one at Alexandra Village. Enjoy!

[@devmcclure2927]

I will do! We have 4 days over there so we will definitely make it happen 😁

[@theomegatank1]

We finally got our chance to visit back in July! Absolutely loved it. Surrounded by other Malaysians judging away as well haha! Hopefully the next time we come you'll be there! Thanks for the food!!

I was literally going to ask about cleaning the wok, then you read my mind. Great job as always Auntie Liz, keep it up!

red wine works better than water due to its acidity

[@ohmbuoy1]

That looks fabulous! And I hope easy enough for me.... I gotta try these babies out for sure! Thanks, Elizabeth!

[@aschw2]

Looks so good...Have to try these instead of putting the ribs on the smoker.

Love love kopi pork ribs. One of my fav dishes when dining out with family having Tze Char.

[@tdkoc]

Not sure if I agree with your bold statement on barbecue, being an American, but, challenge accepted. Make sure the your lil shop is open, hot & ready in 2024 when I come to visit!

[@PsychInOz]

One of my favourite dishes! When we would visit my uncle in Singapore, he would take us out to a hawker centre somewhere in the Tampines area, and would always order a plate of coffee ribs.

[@AZBSTCHF]

That sounds and looks Fantastic!! Where did you get your apron??

Yea. KEK does this dish best.

Yes it does!

[@ahabion]

I don't remember if it we KEK but I definitely remember having coffee ribs on my SG trip and It. Was. Glorious. Me being a coffee fiend aside, that mixture of sweet, bitter and savory was sublime.

FYI behind the Chef at the start, is Monmouth coffee shop, the best coffee in the UK, how I miss working near there

So good.

[@jonnywas2665]

I lived in Singapore for 5 years...Scotts Road just across from the best hawker centre in your home country. Come to Southend on Sea (Essex) one day...I'll cook you the best pork ribs you have or will ever taste...Vietnamese with a twist... and I'm an old Englishman. Uncle Roger not invited, but Hubby can come as no peanuts involved.

[@Phaerion]

Wow! This is one one of those moments that I'd wished I could smell what's cooking through my monitor.Great reccipe. :)

[@AuntieLiz]

Thank you so much

[@q1000q]

Wow another zi char favourite...goodness your on a roll gurl. While ur at it, try doing Salted egg yolk chicken . Ultra- man chicken.😅

[@AnimeshDas108]

3:22 Uncle Roger is gonna be so disappointed ☹️😞

[@acauld2404]

Quick question. If you used half of the rice flour and potato starch in the marinade. And saved the other half to mix to coat the outside after the marinade. Would that make a nice crispy exterior for the sauce to hang on to? Like a light breading? I noticed after the frying step, the rib looked a little battered. Do you think it would be nice to have a little more of a crispy surface? Is that how that might work ? If you added that step by saving half of the dry step in that order I spoke about earlier? Either way I might run the experiment myself

[@harvey2609]

Gonna try. You used the whole egg in your marinade/velveting? Is that the same effect as using just egg whites?

[@AuntieLiz]

I like the richness

[@bigstrawberry4552]

i recently "discovered" coffee ice cream. What a flavour! Can't get enough of it. I bet coffee pork ribs will be same story. New thing, coffee flavoured meats. Meat tester Guga has some work to do

[@newclearly2885]

So, Auntie Liz chose violence with the American BBQ challenge. Gutsy, I like it.

[@clevergirlhikes]

Love your videos, Chef!

[@kbskentuckycountrysidepurs2681]

Tried this today but did a 3 day coffee rub rest the smoked them. Very good but a little bitter on the backside. Maybe the coffee I used?

[@walking_dragon]

that looks so nice 🤤

[@randyschwaggins]

Some chpped spring onions and red chillies would be a nice garnish along with the sesame seeds

[@robchowdhury1300]

Hello, Chef! I'm a huge admirer of your work. I've noticed you often showcase pork dishes. Have you considered featuring beef or goat dishes? Many people don't consume pork, so videos with beef would be appreciated. Thanks!

[@AuntieLiz]

Yes I have, I used to champion goat and whole animal butchery and cooking over fire during my smokehouse days. Would be happy to get some of those filmed in 2024 for sure

[@robchowdhury1300]

Thanks I really appreciate it!

[@larsbusk8996]

Hi Chef thank you for recipe. In your written recipe you say 3 in 1 instant coffee works best but it looks like you use regular instant coffee in your video? And what is that brewed coffee you add in the video? Also are you using Gula Melaka syrup or concentrate? Thank you 😊

[@AuntieLiz]

Yes I used regular instant coffee, you want it to dissolve and not leave any coffee bits. 3 in 1 usually means instant coffee + creamer + sugar. For that special aunty Liz twist I added in Singaporean kopi (it’s a 3 bean brew of torrefacto style coffee, so very rich and thick unlike modern espresso).

[@larsbusk8996]

@@AuntieLiz Thank you for quick reply Liz Me and my girlfriend will order all we need to try this 🙂

[@JoeBurby]

Ok, looks like this is one to bring to your friends and family! Also, I'm intrigued by your marinade mix. My mom makes Thai-style deep-fried wings/pork strips, and she uses a tempura batter. I'm looking for a gluten-free option, so I think I'll try what you blended in the video with the potato starch, rice flour and baking soda! Oh yeah, if Ninja gets you on and makes a Chef Liz edition of their products, I'll buy!

[@bonwatcher]

Deep frying pork ribs and then putting that coffee BBQ sauce on them, I just don't think you can go wrong with that. 🤤👍

[@AuntieLiz]

You got that right!

[@seng628]

Look great 🎉

[@JaydeJackson]

Auntie Liz is left handed? This changes everything!

[@ApproachDiverging013]

You need to serve that with a bowl or plate of rice and some pickled daikon! Going to try it the next time I get a rack of ribs!

[@chinatownboy7482]

Auntie, when I call out over my shoulder, "can I have a whisk?" or "can I have some sesame oil?"......... nothing happens. Can you send some staff over to my house?

[@KeaysJonathan]

Looks so good

[@timmoss8510]

had these at Mrs Pound in Sheung Wan/ Hong Kong about 5 years ago.. freaking awesome!!!! I live in Singapore now and cant find them :(

[@AuntieLiz]

Try KEK

[@silverchairsg]

Have lah some zhi char stalls have those.

[@jeremywck8757]

Coffee pork ribs originated in Singapore, not Hong Kong. You can find it in Singapore quite easily. Btw, another Singapore dish is salted eggs pork ribs and it is really good too - a small joint on 5th floor Far East Plaza is very popular for that - cheap n good.

[@arcticfire232]

Looks delicious!

[@LuluNero]

Hi Aunty Liz. Could I use cornstarch instead of the potato or rice one? Just in case :P

[@AuntieLiz]

Yes you can! It might come out a little thicker batter mind

[@ninja36inc]

can you explain how the backing soda helps in this dish?

[@ren_gaming]

I tried this following the written recipe, it looks the same but it was way too bitter for me, I think I would be keen to try and adjust it and try again though.

[@AuntieLiz]

this can really vary with the type of coffee you use - whether it contains the 3-in-1 or creamer... maybe use less coffee and more sugar?

[@ren_gaming]

@@AuntieLiz thank you that might have been my problem, I just used normal instant coffee, not 3in1 or anything, which might have been too strong, I think less coffee and more sugar and it would have actually been delicious.

[@9Godslayer]

Can this be made in the Instant Pot?

[@ME-vf7pt]

Looks great

[@AuntieLiz]

Thanks!

[@garypotter4653]

Love it!!!

[@letubegris]

9:56 I was wondering, can I fry these up, the. take them to another kitchen an hour later, reheat them slightly in an oven, then bathe them in the coffee sauce? I would like to make these for a turkeyDay party I’m going to, but I would like to avoid the frying in what will be a crowded kitchen. Or is bathing then right out of frier important to getting the coffee coating right?

[@AuntieLiz]

No you can do exactly that, just make sure sauce and ribs are hot/warm to coat/serve. Enjoy!! Let me know how they turn out

[@letubegris]

@@AuntieLiz thanks!

[@paulwagner688]

You've said in previous videos that a lot of the food made is for staff lunch. Such as the Rendang video. How about a couple staff reactions added in? Or even customer reactions. Just a thought. EDIT: I wrote this before the staff reactions.

[@AuntieLiz]

Haha spoke too soon

[@punk_floyd_8123]

instead of a vac pack machine, you can use a large ziplock bag, then close the top almost completely shut, then submerge the bag in water until just under the ziplock, and then close it. it won't be as good as a vac pack, but it will get the job done

[@zalibecquerel3463]
