Well just love what your dad is cooking because it made me learn more how to cook food in a more healthier and more resourceful ways. They make my cooking more exciting these days. Thanks for sharing.

[@isabel5608]

Your dad is awesome, love your dad. Can your dad please make a dish called 干炒牛河？please 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 and share the recipe

[@slok9881]

I want to see some popular canton soup dishes. For example the green onion ginger chicken soup. I remembered it to be very healing, and healthy overall! Maybe Dad Lau can make it? :D Thank you for demonstrating these awesome recipes.

This is such a great channel. I've almost forgotten how lovely it is to listen to Cantonese again... It makes me want to reconnect with my background and try speaking it more. Thanks to you and your family! :)

[@MadeWithLau]

So grateful to hear that! We hope you do 🥰🥰

[@fernlow4235]

Just to listen to Papa Lau's cantonese is just great.

[@krisiwasaki9607]

I love your Dad! He is such a great teacher, he explains why you must do it this way! Thanks you !

Love how Papa cooks and teaches. Get both educated and warm feeling :) Makes me miss home that we always eating as big family. Never tried fish omelette yet. This is a great recipe, will try soon 😋 Hello from Pam, Thailand 🙏

[@monkiecher]

Hey! It's Cheryl. Thanks for the shout out and answering my question :) Good to know that it's dependent on the method for cooking the eggs.

[@andrewlau4108]

My family, being from Vietnam, adds fish sauce to these omelets. Would highly recommend trying it, the flavors are exceptional. You can taste for seasoning by cooking a small amount of the egg and seafood and adjust before cooking the big omelet.

[@AstraFleur]

At what stage of cooking do you add the fish sauce?

[@christinali3283]

@@AstraFleur I think to the raw egg, with the white pepper and salt

[@lunaart5440]

@@christinali3283 fish sauce is salty, no need for salt

So wholesome and educational. What a nice household you got there bro. Wish you all the best from Sweden.

[@Mstrickster2]

I don't have much contact with my Canto side of the family, so watching your videos always gives me a sense of homesickness and longing. Thanks for sharing your recipes and all the work you put into creating the video. I really love watching your channel.

[@RyanWeishalla]

Definitely looks like a good alternative to the fish quesadillas I make, using the eggs instead of the tortillas. You and your dad make a very good combination when instructing, explaining things very clearly. Thanks for sharing.

[@lychenthrope]

I found your channel recently and I love it! I never got to connect with my Chinese half (more like 2/3s haha) while growing up so learning so much about the food and the culture from your videos is something so, so valuable to me. Thank you for sharing your wonderful family and giving me a chance to connect with a part of myself I never got to!

[@mws6267]

You are so lucky to have dad like this…

[@duotone69]

I think Daddy Lau is quickly evolving into his role as a teacher for all of us. I love how he holds the bowl or dish up for better viewing as if he was standing in front of a group of students. 👨🏼‍🍳👍🏾

[@samcowie7469]

I'm a new follower. I just wanted to say that I really enjoy these videos. I think I've watched them all in a few days! Beautifully filmed and you have such a nice family. Send them my best.

You are lucky to have a Dad that helps the family cook meals and gather together for a meal (Sunday). Also, your son is so cute!

OMG! I made this dish, Daddy Lau’s Spareribs and Black bean sauce and his boiled gai lan tonight! This was great. I used Chilean Sea-bass for the fish and we couldn’t stop eating it. Thank you for sharing, Randy. We always look forward to this show. 好食!

[@BombzofJager]

Old man papa chef is a natural on camera, not common especially for someone his age, my mom would look like she was being interrogated.

[@bktan3992]

i think to flip the egg nicely you can try the following: 1) Put the egg on the plate(like what he did at first) 2) Flip the empty pan upside down, and put it over the plate with egg 3) Press them together with one hand holding the bottom of the plate, and the other holding the pan 4) With the hand still pressing the plate and pan together, flip the pan back to upright 5) Remove plate

[@Dudeofcheese]

This is pretty good but pops puts oil in the pan before flipping.

[@ac-stingz]

@@Dudeofcheese one option is to use cooking spray or an oil sprayer (I found mine in dollar store) so they don't pool together and drip. Another way is to use the pan/wok to toss a flip and add oil when lifting it, but afterall, quick motion is the key.

[@yblmisc]

I use a pan lid for flipping instead of a plate, the handle of the lid makes it so much easier.

[@seechunchong9876]

Another lovely video...Egg omelettes, my favorite, easy to cook and yes, you can add onions or char siew, sausages, others too. Hello Hong Doy, you are looking good and happy...Bring joy to all of us watching. Cheers

Your dad 's recipes are awesome. As a Hoisan nui I would love to see whole soy sauce chicken. Thanks!

[@PeevedUK]

Looks like a really lovely brunch. Will try this later this week! Thanks!

[@silverdawn813]

it's fascinating that in chinese cuisine there is a difference between stir-fry and pan-fry! when I cook it's just "don't burn the food"!!! :D :D :D I made daddy lau's stir-fried green beans and eggplant with garlic sauce and my family loved them! even my eggplant squeamish nephew approved. thank you!

[@yorilamaz]

@daddy Lau on flipping the egg 😁 movie magic made us believe that pros do it best, but they just as human as anyone else! I love the authenticity. Food is very forgiving especially when it’s delicious 😋 I don’t mind forgoing looks for taste, but to picky eaters, it helps!

[@M3gart0443]

Our fams usually use oyster but nowadays there's an issued that mercury / heavy metal can be easily found inside oyster, so we no longer eat it as often as used to be. it's good to know that we can change it to fish. Btw can your dad teach us how to cook fried hor fun? Please..

[@lisaang1790]

Thanks again for sharing your recipe. What I did was put the pan on top of the plated omelette (1st) then flip it hence the omelette did not break. Again, many thanks.

[@mirukufongy]

woww this reminds me so much of my mums cooking! Definitely going to make this soon. Also, you are having homegrown goji berry soup!? Would you be able to do a video on that (preferably with a veggie option). My mum used to make it all the time when I was a kid. Now I live 6000 miles away from her and haven't seen my family for two years because of the pandemic... :/

[@MrLexify]

i always add salt, pepper, oil, light soy sauce and a bit of water to my egg for pan frying. it makes the egg fluffy and beautiful! i think the most common ingredients for this kind of eggs are prawns (fu yong dan), or minced pork meat (rou cuo dan).

[@viviankankam9704]

I just love to watch grandchild so happy eating & drinking everything. Giving grandfather his hands to wipe. 😂 👏👏👏👏This baby is special, gonna a chef🥰😋👏👏👏👏 Yay 😊. We see you next time

[@marieg2g]

Wow, the omelette is so beautifully done! This one really not easy and need to use skills. This is the 1st time that I know can use fish to cook an omelette. I always have a problem cooking the whitefish as it always does not taste nice. Now I can try to use it to cook an omelette. Thanks, Senior and Junior Lau for sharing. Mm kor sai! Hope I say it right in Cantonese. Haha.

[@joycewilson3443]

Gracias por sus deliciosas recetas me encanta la comida y las novelas asiáticas saludos desde Quito Ecuador

[@emmaghows3841]

For the question about getting the omelet nice and fluffy, besides beating the eggs until you see some biggish bubbles, you should also add milk (or water, if no milk). Not so much that the eggs lose the goopiness lol, but enough that you see the yellow get paler. After pan-frying, the surface of the omelet should have a bit of bite while the insides are fluffy.

[@MadeWithLau]

Thanks Emma!!

[@emmaghows3841]

@@MadeWithLau welcome, everything I say is just what my grandfather has passed down the generations :)

[@ruthgomez2593]

in order to get this to work, fluff the eggs in the bowl adding all the items (ingredients) you want in the bowl for the omelet. The trick is in the number of eggs used for the number of guests and making smaller omelets. A wok works much better but only pour a little oil and make sure the sides of the wok have oil as well. It helps when flipping.

[@helenyeeloong3201]

Yes I make smaller portion of omeletts easier to flip over.

[@GreatSchema]

I wonder if uncle lau have any recipe for 麻油鸡. Always loved this dish from young with the thick sauce over white rice.

[@lynnreal9934]

Hi Randy, I enjoy watching your dad’s cooking video. Does he have a recipe for chicken feet dish? Thanks.

[@emilyjaneschmidt6567]

This looks so delicious. Can't wait to make this. I look forward to seeing more vids

[@zhuofanzhang9974]

The oyster one in Taiwan would be 蚵仔煎 (oyster-fry), but there are similar ones in mainland as well. 厦门 (Xiamen), a port city almost exactly a thin straight across 金门 (the Jinmen Islands) of Taiwan, cooks the same type of thing.

[@renishii6834]

Have to try this one. I have tasted all sorts of omelettes like oyster, ham, chorizo but never fish. My mom also cooked something like pickled radish omelette that goes well with plain congee. Omelettes are great, no matter the aesthetic outcome is.

[@rxcat85]

We always use frozen silver fish found in the freezer section in asian grocery. That's the traditional fish to use in HK. Its good that daddy lau is giving an option, but cantonese egg omelet is also tasty with shrimp or char shu. A quick dish on a weekday

[@selinaardrey9433]

I like this chef, he reminds me of my dad

[@absolutezero4041]

You know what would be great? Recipes for traditional Chinese soup! The language barrier really prevents most ABCs (like me unfortunately) from learning what ingredients to use. I've only been able to discern a few ingredients like goji berry, chinese round almonds, buckwheat, and a few others. Please ask Mr. Lau to teach us! Thank you!

[@davewong4834]

Indeed, most of the seafood would work well with fried eggs, with very little preparation. Taste great!

[@darcylass]

I watch your dad and it’s like an uncle is teaching me how to cook. 😃I would try this with shrimp and crab

[@kristyloox]

Ohhh goooodddddddiieeee!! I love eating this. You're killing me. First Singapore noodles now this 😍😋

[@pennyf9886]

I love how he calls his grandson to eat when the food is ready.

[@greatsave7]

Love your content, Randy and Chef Lau! Just a note on the subtitles: when Chef Lau and other Chinese people say "chow daan", we don't mean to "stir-fry" the eggs, but to "scramble" it.

[@stevec8522]

OMG. Papa Lau grew his own goji berries. So old school 👍👍👍

[@MadeWithLau]

He's an OG!

[@smudgybuzz]

Love how this video features Chinese cooking alchemy: eg. coating the fish with cornstarch and poaching in water. Question: instead of flipping such a big omelette, could you instead drop some water at edges of the omelette to create steam and then cover the pan so that the top cooks with steam while the bottom continues to fry?

[@christinali3283]

I feel like steamed eggs have a really different texture? But I could see it working!

[@guycalabrese4040]

I'll try this tonight! Will add some freshly chopped chillies.

[@monicac9643]

Please share the gojiberry soup. 🤤Didn't know kau kei = gojiberry. Yeah in Malaysia my mum typically cooks either with onions or long beans. At times we add Chinese sausage! Super yummy!

[@70-860]

First one is Cantonese, goji is Mandarin.

[@christinali3283]

I feel like I learn great cooking tips in these videos - I totally poured oil in the middle of the omelette. Sides only now!

[@julietchua531]

Did you put salt n pepper in the eggs?

[@xXJennifercXx]

Can your dad show us more chinese vegetable dishes? I've started to cook chinese veggies at home and it's always a struggle for me to get the veggie to cook properly & have flavor. Thanks!

[@meizhou9279]

When your dad was talking about the soup "gow gei tong" the subtitles said gogi berry. Does it come from the same plant? I've had that soup all my life and had no idea. Some neighbor or auntie always has a bumper crop. Haha...

[@MadeWithLau]

Yep! I just learned that too haha.

[@trevorwindle8980]

Don’t take any thing the subtitle translates I am constantly horrified it is a computer like spell check assuming it’s Gogi berry it just changed that to gigi

[@WanderTheNomad]

@@trevorwindle8980 I'm pretty sure all the subtitles on this channel are done manually.

You can get fluffed up omlettes if you cover up the pan for 30-60seconds before the flip....the top also gets cooked a bit more like that ....

[@lifeofash425]

I've made this dish many times and with different meats.. fish, spam, ham, lap cheong (chinese sausage), crab meat, onions etc.. If you cover the pan and give the top egg layer a chance to cook and solidify, it makes it easier to flip so you can get both sides browned. You also use less oil..
