Excellent video! Hope Mr. Lau will show us how to cook old school Cantonese Omanthus egg one day. It has a very distinctive aromatic flavour.

[@stevenng1923]

What type of cooking oil you used? Thanks

[@loisjohnson7272]

So do I like the stalk

[@maxxpirk]

The amount of shit you have to buy and do to eat broccoli is crazy. Any meat salt, pepper cook eat. Much cheaper much simpler much more nutritious.

[@maxxpirk]

So what the kids like is the fat and you’re using vegetable oil, which is the number one cause of heart disease. So to cook the cheapest vegetable possible you have to spend like an extra hundred dollars or so.

[@wisedonkey_]

I'm glad that you show using the stalk. People don't realized it's edible and good. It usually gets wasted. I like it as much as the florets.

[@heliosvalladares1704]

This is literally my fav part it's so delicious

[@BenthovenMusic]

Actually the stalks can be used for fried rice. Mum usually dices it into brunoise to add more textures to the dish.

[@waterjade4198]

It's very versatile, my favourite usage is for scrambled eggs. I mixed random meat, veggies and cheese in eggs like a lazy man omelette.

[@heliosvalladares1704]

@@waterjade4198 this sounds good think I'm going to try it

[@matthewchung6884]

In Hong Kong, we will reserve the stalk, cut it into small dices, and use it as an ingredient to make fried rice. It provides one more crunchy texture, and also color, and vegetable to a simple fried rice, very tasty and useful.

[@rtong12]

I love how you record your dad explaining his cooking in Cantonese. Reminds me of my late father. He always wanted to teach me to cook, but I was always too busy to watch. Thank you for sharing your dad with us.

Ey dude you waste so much water on washing that broccoli : ( Bad video

[@giovannispinotti]

Italian here. I find it fascinating how even with such a distance in our cultures, the cooking of something as simple and delicious as broccoli is pretty much identical. We do fast boiling, keep em green, and sautee them with garlic (we use no ginger). We also prepare the stalks for who likes them (my daughter has always preferred them since she was 2, I never like them). Also, for us high quality olive oil with such a simple dish is necessary. Thanks for the video!

[@MadeWithLau]

That's amazing! Great minds think alike :)

[@FlatStella1]

Vuoi Italiani nei posti piccoli, fate cose buone!

[@ThirdLife86]

Lol. Olive Oil is probably the LAST oil i'd want to use for a stir fried dish with high heat intensity. That will only taste bitter in the end.🤣

[@morticae]

​@@ThirdLife86if you use bad technique, sure. If you keep things moving, use high heat briefly, and then finish with fresh oil, it'll work great. Or just go tell Italy they've been doing it wrong.

[@ThirdLife86]

​@@morticae Has nothing to do with bad technique and also doesn't mean you can't cook other things with it. Its just not meant for asian high heat wok fried cuisine, sorry to break it to you or the italian fellas. Olive oil is not the holy grail in all cuisines and for each and every dish. Keeping things moving will keep your ingredients cooler but a lot of the oil in the pan will still go bad. Also as soon as you use high heat its done even if "briefly", also your dish will not taste the same as you NEED high heat. And then top it off with another dose of oil so you're eating a massive oily dish ? Yeah, seems like your technique is really perfect. If you want to eat half burnt and half fresh oil with some partially over or undercooked broccoli. Perfect dish. 🤣

[@marioncapriotti1514]

I love the fact that even though I can't understand any Chinese, Daddy Lau's simple, straightforward cooking instructions don't need to be translated into any other language; his awesome Dad-energy is adorable, too!

I appreciate your father mentioning what to do when feeding people that have a tougher time chewing. My daughter loves broccoli but has cerebral palsy so chewing is difficult. I look forward to cooking this for her!

[@armandogavilan1815]

If the chewing problem is severe try making it into dips, with tofu (blended) and you know anything she likes (garlic, black pepper, soy sauce or so) Some people (specially women) that may have a colitis problem, may have a hard time with "hard" al dente broccoli.

[@nicknelson9450]

Don't know why blanching was the revelation for you since all that seems to do is soften it up (and does nothing for keeping it green as is said here). I stir-fry it directly and it seems fine to me. I think what's most important is the little extra liquid spicy sauce added to the oil base while stirring. Also baked garlick cloves then chopped up taste better than stir-frying it raw and can be put in the pan at the end without risk of burning it.

[@OtakuBakaNeko]

​@@nicknelson9450 I don't really care about the greenness or anything. But the flavor is different. I can't really explain it, but it just tastes better to. I mean, maybe it's the salt in the water too? When I steamed it, I usually add salt after.
