Happy New Year 🎊🎉🥳🇨🇳🐲

[@ayeshahello7615]

Thank you for the recipe, God bless your family 🙏🏻😌

[@beanmehula]

The best thing I like about your videos are that your Dad explains well why he does what he does. He clearly has a reason for everything he does and if you question him, he can back up the ‘why’ to his methods. This man is so smart because of having so much experience. Thank you for sharing your family with us. 😃

每次看到Daddy Lau 便想起我爸爸和藹可親的樣子。Daddy Lau看著兒子，孫仔和老伴的眼神都充滿著愛，面上有溫暖的笑容。他是用愛心去煑每一餐給他愛的親人🥰在這個頻道，除了看到美食，還感到濃濃的親情👍🏻

Can you ask your Dad if I can move in? I'm 55 and house trained, I'm more than willing to do all the runs to the market and do all the washing up, and any other chores/errands . I'd happily pay to move in with your lovely parents.

[@willybones3890]

I love how your dad does everything with minimal cookware and a single small butane cooker. Proving that anyone with even the most basic kitchen (even in a camper or a dorm room), one can cook awesome food. I found your channel a couple years ago and its my goto for chinese cooking. Thank you and your father for that.🎉😊

[@stever456]

I agree, you want to see how they cook just down the road from China in Nepal in the villages. Very basic yet the food they produce is first class, so much skill here.

[@LewisTheFly888]

@@stever456hi Steve and Willy. Yes. So humbling. I have seen how Chinese cook one vegetable - say a celery stick- and make a dish from it. Nothing wasted. I have not been to Nepal but imagine the ability to extract max flavours from minimal ingredients and herbs etc. One heat source. We could learn a lot. I have from my darling wife who grew up in Xian in the shadows of the walls of the ancient city. One tap. One toilet block. 200 families. Amazing stuff. Always great flavours in the food when they could get any food. 1970’s.

[@lw8493]

Chef Lau is amazing Chef. I m Cantonese so warm to listen our language. Thank you Chef Lau😊😊

[@MrHammerkop]

Lau is an absolute treasure trove of traditional culinary knowledge, kitchen lore, practice and skill. He knows and clearly explains the science (why plunge the boiled chicken in ice water, why make a cut on the thick back of the fish..). He knows the art of it (the crucial flavour of sesame oil to the scallion-ginger side dish, how scallions cut in such and such a way are pleasing to the eye..) Here is a master in his life's work, and I look on with awe and envy. May his life be blessed always with happiness and the love of his (very lucky) family!

[@LewisTheFly888]

What a sensitive and beautiful way to present a fish or chicken. And so well described. Your dad reminds me of my now departed father in law. He was from Xian in central China. He died two years ago. Really miss him. A knowledgeable and gentle soul. Like your dad here. Great video. Thank you.

[@pychow5666]

Randy, you are so lucky to have such an amazing dad! I love everything he cooks!

[@lianeb9857]

Thank you Lau Pak for taking the time to explain the purpose of each step! This makes it easy for the most beginner cook to follow along! Love the sound of that crunch! We bow!

This just reminds me of my grandpa who'd single handedly prepared the whole Chinese new year dinner spread..he didnt study culinary,but just seems to be able to come out with so many dishes,in chinese sayings,this is just how the older Chinese generation learn to live

[@spunkmuffin11]

I love watching your dad cook. It brings back so many wonderful memories of watching my late grandma cook when I was very young. My grandma was a Hakka from Canton, her dipping sauce is slightly differerent, she calls hers Salt Wine Chicken 盐酒鸡，she would make her own rice wine, and mix it with lots of finely minced ginger and salt.

[@deniaridley]

This is the most informative cooking video I've ever seen. And I watch A LOT. Your dad truly explains the why and how and the meaning (!) behind the process. Love his passion; it's contagious. Thank you!

[@MadeWithLau]

Wow, thank you!

[@SashArovot]

I think it would be a fun video idea to show us dishes that you that you make regularly at home when your dad isn’t cooking and show what you have learnt from your dad.

[@ifell3]

Seriously dont know why i watch this late at night, makes my mouth water and stomach ache 😅

[@celyl]

In a pinch buy a jar of puree ginger for the sauce. Combine with salt, scallion and microwave for 30 seconds in oil. I've made this with 1/4 chicken: leg and thigh in the rice cooker on top of the rice. Quick, healthy, and delicious.

[@bereasonable8018]

I crave the white cut chicken with scallion ginger sauce. I grew up eating that so often ❤️

[@RVFFICA]

and a nice big bowl of white rice 👌

我最近開始學習中文，我喜歡煮食（同埋食），這個組合令我發現咗你嘅頻道。但係留住我唔走嘅，係圍住飯桌嘅片段，尤其係同你嘅囝仔嘅互動，以及見到佢同祖父母嘅交流。如果呢個真係能夠代表廣東人嘅飯桌文化嘅話，嗰種動態真係令人驚嘆，我哋喺西方真係可以從中學到好多。我哋完全同用餐時間作為家庭團聚嘅機會脫節。繼續保持你嘅出色工作。

If you want to learn how to make these using an air fryer, please check out other channels. Uncle Lau is a master of old-school techniques. 😅

[@megfreeth4377]

I do that to the skin too but use a tbs vodka or gin instead of rice vinegar it works really well too. I don’t season like that though I’m about to try it it looks so delicious. Thank you your dad is lovely xx

[@linhstroud1429]

Thank you for making this video, especially for making the roast pork. I grew up eating Cantonese food and I am so grateful for your dad explaining it in Cantonese! Regarding the chicken, why not just steam the chicken vs. poaching it? What would be the taste difference? And I love the ginger sauce.

[@davedunington7637]

I don't appreciate your commercials , but I sure do respect and enjoy your Dad and His skills .

If I use the air fryer to make the roast pork, what is the temperature n fry for how long.? Please advise. I can’t wait to make it. Liu爸爸. 多謝你教我們煮餸. 請問做燒肉. 如果用air fryer. 溫度是多少及要Air fry多久呢.

Thank you劉爸爸！原來燒肉先飛水塊皮好㓤啲 好想知道要整開年飯 一日嘅日程rundown應該點安排 事前有邊樣預備功夫可以先做

[@MadeWithLau]

唔好客氣，團年飯或開年飯，先要計劃幾個人嘅份量，八至九人，有七道菜就差不多啦，以上三道菜再加上一個煎或蒸蝦、炒菜或蠔油芥蘭、鮑魚、一道湯就足夠了。燒肉或叉燒可隔夜腌好，白切雞可在當天早上浸熟，放涼後切好擺碟用保鮮膜封好開飯時上枱，薑蔥油亦可先做好，其餘菜式在下午一時開始吧（假如六時開飯），先焗烤燒肉或叉燒，同時用浸雞湯煮湯，順序：鮑魚、青菜、煮飯、最後用蒸鍋蒸魚，煎鍋煎蝦可同時進行，一同上枱，一起開飯。一個完美嘅團年飯或開年飯便成。老劉衷心祝福您闔家安康！新年快樂！萬事如意！多謝🙏！

台山劉 過年 做一個家鄉付足湯 請問如何 做 有什麼材料？ 我媽媽 以前是 那些湯 有付足 冬菇 蠔士𧎚 然後 將隻雞放入湯𥚃慢火煮卄五分鐘 取出 放涼 拜神用 還有那副雞什。請問 劉師父 如何做呢？ ㊗️各位新年快樂 身體健康。

[@MadeWithLau]

您好，在家鄉過年，我們多用冬菇、蠔豉、腐竹、發菜、紅棗煲湯，這個湯是用浸過拜神雞的湯煲的，如果你一邊用以上的材料一邊煲湯一邊浸雞，雞皮的顏色就不美觀了。如果要落發菜，最好在湯煲好前5分鐘才放入，這個湯很易做，冬菇、蠔豉、紅棗先煲，30分鐘後放入腐竹，（腐竹要溫水浸泡過，切段），直到你認為夠軟滑就可以調味了。非常感謝您嘅支持！老劉祝福您闔家安康！新年快樂！萬事如意！
