I like how the reasoning for the steps are explained which most recipes/videos don't do. This way you can learn something and also use what you learn in some other recipe etc.

[@Shinnosuki]

Please explain why the added oil at the end @9:45. I'm not talking about the sesame oil, but the regular oil he did before the sesame oil.

[@yuhintse6759]

Adding oils at the end usually makes the dish brighter, just for a better look. It's a common trick in Chinese cooking tho@@Shinnosuki

[@jeannine8237]

I love watching your father cook!! What a treasure to have his recipes on video. Thank you for doing these videos, i have learned so much!

Definitely a comfort food from my childhood. Thank you so much for this video and instructions.

[@greg.peepeeface]

I was wondering about that because it’s so hard to find it served in places.

[@pokerpariah]

I’ve had this before and it’s epic. An extremely simple dish but so full of flavors. I imagine this is an Asian comfort food.

[@greg.peepeeface]

In SF Chinatown that serves in a diner like spot, so it does feel like a Chinese comfort dish

[@Anrong1]

it's a main dish for lunch.

[@iivin4233]

​@@Anrong1That makes sense. It keeps in a lunch box and doesn't stink (in my experience).

[@Whateverfitsmyfancy]

I’m so glad I found this. I haven’t heard anyone speak Cantonese since my grandparents died.

[@DukeTDang]

Sad that it’s being pushed out of Hong Kong too…..😢

[@freshfloorstulsa]

May your family have good luck for many generations!🎉❤

[@Gutisusa]

I’ve had this so many times when I was a kid. Parents and their Mah Jong friends. It was a dish that kids liked and parents could eat easily while playing MJ. I loved it! I’m going to make some !

[@cam7703]

This was my absolute favorite thing to get at restaurants as a kid! Nowadays, it's very hard to find a place that would have it. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@PattieKnapp]

what a blessed family, enjoy your father cooking but enjoy watching you all eat together, a lost art now days.

[@abdullazizalia7776]

Looks yummy 😋😋

[@AliasHSW]

Every time I watch an episode it reminds me of my dad (rip) sharing cooking tips while making all my favorite canton& toishan dishes.

[@Orangetine]

tyy for your videos! as someone who speaks Cantonese and loves cooking and baking i appreciate you guys so much!! keep doing great

[@chanjcm]

I was literally saying to my cousin that I was craving this exact dish! Maybe I’ll make it instead of finding a restaurant that still makes this!💜

[@LouisLouieSZ4]

Thanks Chef Lau for teaching this dish! It's one of my favorite comfort food from Hong Kong's fast food shops!

[@Ostsol]

Ground beef on rice was a staple in my family, growing up. I still eat it all the time. Sometimes flavoured with hoisin and soy sauce, or ketchup and chilli, or even just thickened beef broth and herbs. Always with mixed vegetables. Lately I've also been adding kidney beans for cheap extra fibre and protein.

[@evasenechal8735]

Absolutely cracked my up because in am from Québec and we have a dish we call pâtë chinois! Basically mince meat with onions and sal pepper… layered with corn and creamed corn and on top mashed potatoes…. And there has been so many legends. Versions. You name it

[@cecilec.1650]

Today I was looking up Chinese beef recipes urgently, and came across this video and followed the instructions the best I could. OH MY GOD, IT CAME OUT DELICIOUS! I felt like I ordered something from a good Chinese restaurant. The way I cook, my ground beef always come out hard, but with this video, I was able to make juicy, flavorful, soft beef! AWESOME VIDEO! Just subscribed!

[@davedunington7637]

He's actually from Tanishan. At the end you could hear his Taishanese come out when he says come and eat

[@defrte]

Man, i dont remember seeing these much as a kid. They were like SUUUPPEERR budget meals

[@maggiejetson7904]

This was my childhood cafeteria lunch. Nothing fancy but always something I remember of these days.

[@huggledemon32]

This recipe looks delicious and easy- I tend to batch cook my dinners as I’m disabled and can’t cook every day. This is perfect for batch cooking and is simple too. I also appreciate that we can use beef mince that isn’t too fatty (my gall bladder is playing up so I can’t eat much meat at the moment!😅😩 But the fact that I can use extra lean beef in this and it will still taste good is awesome!🥰 I love Chinese food but a lot of it isn’t suitable for batch cooking and reheating, so dishes like this are perfect!🥰

[@icyngan]

Oh yes please 🤩 I am so happy when I see this as I have been waiting for this for ages. This is my childhood memory, there's not many places still have this dish and now I can make it myself in Australia as I can eat this anywhere. Thank you so so much ❤🎉

[@SZ-kr2em]

The minced beef is heavenly.

[@ac-lo6dt]

Looks amazing!

[@sleepywoood]

Thank you uncle Lau, we’re making this tonight 😊

[@PJ-mb3ue]

Thank you for the video!! What sauce is daddy lau adding to top his plate at 6:25? I love the videos! I do wish you guys would mention what you serve things with to make it a complete meal. Thank you!!

[@sl8026]

OMG... My mother used to make this often when we were little. I honestly thought that it was a made-up-by-her dish, as we used to be pretty poor while growing up in the late '70's and early '80's and my mum was creative with the little groceries she had ever since she was little growing up on a small village in the New Territories in HK. I love the video's from this channel and Daddy Lau talks exactly like my youngest uncle when it comes to cooking 🙂

[@patlee4858]

made this with presto mushroom and tomato and eggs last week. everyone loved it.

[@papercutpostman1660]

Your dad's cooking reminds me of an old Chinese restaurant called, 'ABC restaurant'. Kind of like a local diner. Very homey Cantonese food in Vancouver.

[@eeleinniw]

This classic was my childhood favorite!

[@shinnoskenohara7037]

My FAV!!!!!

[@JC-vq2vv]

Can Mr.Lau do the similar dish with flank steak, peas and brown sauce? Childhood favorite of mine but this dish looks awesome as well!

[@Micko350]

7:00 Randy say Worcestershire sauce for me again please! 😂😂😂

[@TheJclassic]

Nice

[@beargillium2369]

This is excellent since i would probably never order it a restaurant in favor of something more "special" but it looks amazing and can't wait to try at home!

[@lornalee8316]

Delicious 😊

[@JJYoon-wj8yi]

This was one of the lunch menus at Royden House Junior School in Hong Kong 1974-75. I remember when I visited my English friend's house at Chung Hum Kok and his Chinese amah cooked this for us. Indian dish Qeema Muteer is quite similar, too. Maybe India influenced the Brits.

[@goodguyaus]

Haha, even simple things like that little rice crater for the egg brought a dopey grin to my face ☺ 5:12

[@Linkuji-Ouji]

I wonder if I can use this as the seasoned ground beef in my croquettes I think it’d be yummy

[@meizhou9279]

Now I’m inspired to make this into shepherds pie, with a cheese sauce to bind the rice into the top layer. Thanks Randy and Daddy Lau. 😂

[@fredsmith5782]

This is a very tasty dish. Easy to make but I sometimes get it at the restaurant when I’m too lazy to make it at home

[@TundeEszlari]

Perfect video.

[@alunjprice]

Lots of Americans seem to have difficulty with the pronunciation of Worcestershire, it’s wustersha, and you drop the ‘shire’ when you combine it with sauce: wuster sauce.

[@jamesyoungquist6923]

Yeah English is such a hodgepodge of languages it can be very hard to know how to pronounce a word you've never seen written before. "Enough" is eenuf, not en-ow-geh. "Squirrel" is skwirl, not sku-ee-rel. And "pronunciation gatekeeper" is not "pro-nun-kiyat-ion ga-teke-eper". There's more exceptions than rules, but the important part is whether (weather) or not effective communication happened

[@mrslamb1807]

May I ask which cut of the beef did you use for mince?

[@jadehom8067]

My childhood all time fav dish, except my mom put the egg into the gravy 👍🤗

Make me curious if you could use other proteins as well? What about other types of rice? Any type of oil to mix with the beef?

[@sassymess7111]

Sweet Lord that looks good 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

[@iggytse]

This is interesting. I had a dish like this in the mid 80s in Sydney Australia at a yum Cha restaurant. It was a smaller version. Boiled rice was in a straight cylinder bowl, the beef mince was like a solid boil puree. The served at the table with a raw egg crack on top. It was the only time I’ve seen it and I was probably in like the 4th grade primary school. I’m not sure if it was done like that because this was a yum Cha restaurant with lots of steaming equipment and what I’m seeing in this video is the actually traditional recipe.

[@yorilamaz]

Waa~ Muimui is so big now 😍 sry Randy & crew, I haven’t been keeping up with Daddy Lau’s videos lately… we’ve been a “lil” busy these past few months 🤰🏻😆

[@ArchangelApollo]

I'm curious on your dad's thoughts of adding unwashed rice to a metal strainer and running cold water over it for a few minutes to wash the rice.

[@AutumnS264]

can i eat this with noodles? what kind?

[@akamoosh218]

do you have to season the wok?

[@PJ-mb3ue]

What sauce is that on the side?

[@jamesyoungquist6923]

@lau would you ever brown the ground beef first and then add the marinade? That's how i like to make marinara for pasta and the maillard flavor really adds to it

[@rektl2036]

Because it is a quicker cook dish, I think doing so may affect the final texture. In other sauces you stew it for some time so the meat get soft again. But here once it’s cooked, you add the water and make a sauce. There isn’t prolonged stewing to resoften the meat again. I would guess it’s probably okay on fattier minces. But you still need to start on low heat to break apart the meat in the start before browning it more. Else it will remain as big chunks which you don’t want for this dish. Think of it like a Meat Cous Cous kinda texture on how you want the bits of meat to be separated ideally

[@jamesyoungquist6923]

@@rektl2036 ah ok. Thanks for clarifying :)

[@rektl2036]

@@jamesyoungquist6923 oh 1 addition i was watching other videos and saw.. You can add more oil to get more browning, which works for other dishes like mapo tofu base, but for this dish you probably will need to strain the meat / try to scoop out the excess oil (if u used an oiler mix) before add in the sauce and water. Cause the nature of the dish is much less oily, and you want to bind all into a meat sauce

[@lee9604]

What do you do with the egg?? Is it stirred in?

[@pazu8728]

Stir it in when hot. The egg white and york will coat the rice and made it silky. Some people don't like the raw egg so you can just stir up the middle portion and left the edge untouch.

I've been using those OXO squeeze bottles for my oil, soy sauce, rice wine, rice vinegar, sesame oil etc. Gamechanger. They come in 3 sizes. Really makes it look like I know what I'm doing in the kitchen :). Also, my Dexter Russell chinese chef's knife is still going strong! I think I bought it just as you started the channel. I still re-tell the story that the only way your Dad managed to break one was by using it to chop down trees. And it was the handle, not the blade, that gave out. Classic Daddy Lau!

[@cekuhnen]

What I found the most surprising comment here was a the similarity to British / Irish versions.

[@johnnychang4233]

The texture of the beef blended by food processor is very pasty, almost like hot dog sausages, unlike the one done with meat grinder which is grittier and more meatball like consistency.

It is less common in Hong Kong now. raw egg just got heat from rice and the beef, a bit afraid to eat.

[@Loyee2000]

Before around mid-70s at the Hong Kong diners茶餐廳, the old-school免治牛肉minced beef was actually hand-minced/chopped instead of ground beef by a grinder, so there were little lumps and pieces with a very unique texture. Sure they wanted to cut labor cost, right? 免治牛肉飯Minced Beef Rice was one of my favorite dishes at that time but never liked it again since they changed to ground beef! Thus I'm a little disappointed with Daddy Lau this time!
