Hainanese chicken burger 2.0 | Elizabeth Haigh | Auntie Liz

[@kc9502]

I love how you're doing an R&D section of the video. So often in YT cooking videos you don't get to see the experimentation and the thought processes behind why certain recipe decisions were made. Love this element in your video!

[@icbm_enthusiast6936]

Definitely agree, very much enjoyed that.

[@micro11.]

smh uncle roger is not in here

[@benjaminwan3878]

If there was an R&D section it’d be her stealing recipes from other cooks!

NEXT CHALLENGE! -> Before this, McDonald's Singapore ever come out with the Nasi Lemak Burger in 2017. The burger comprises a coconut-flavoured chicken thigh coated in cornflake crust, fried egg, cucumber, caramelised onion, and sambal sauce. Since you have Nasi Lemak in your menu, why not try this as your next challenge as Nasi Lemak Burger v2.0?

[@Alderic.]

the pandan mayonnaise was genius. would have loved to see versions 3.0 and 4.0, chef! I actually thought of doing this myself by blending up chicken rice to make a rice bread and using achar as pickles for the burger.

[@AuntieLiz]

Thanks for the great in-depth review, nice work. Like the achar idea, makes sense!

[@TahaKaneko]

yes just like the japanese rice burger, a burger with rice bun is actually possible. great idea

[@jinxheadjo9855]

I was just thinking about putting achar into the burger . Good idea. 👍

[@micro11.]

but you cook rice haiyaaa

[@kieranmatthews8971]

✅ Achar is my go to pickles for burgers & sometimes for Bao.

[@samighoul-duclos1461]

I saw the video and was like : "I want to eat that..." So I did! I improvised the closest version of the dish I could do with what I had available (still working on getting a pandan plant...), and it really tasted great! My mother loved it too and she now wants the recipe... Thanks chef!

[@DragonView1]

Amazing! I love it Sami! You want something? Do it!

[@mrtokyofrank]

In Japan, one of the fast food places here has a rice patty burger. They are served in this paper wrapping that helps to keep the burger together and you don't have to get your hands dirty.

[@BrucieDC]

I love Auntie Liz. Auntie Liz is the reason how I discovered Uncle Roger. BTW, the best chicken rice I had was located down in our blk 241 in Serangoon!!!

[@fabsjudekong]

Mos Burger has rice burger in their menu. I am not sure how they keep it intact but the paper wrapping did help. McDonald's version was quite good the first time I had it. Balanced flavour although tamed. Chicken was juicy. The second time I had it - it seemed subpar. Maybe it's just the store's consistency.

[@uni0n88]

Agreed on Mos burger

[@sdqsdq6274]

mos burger rice burger is difficult to eat , dont like it

[@hockguanlim3382]

The bread for the Singapore version has a tinge of ginger flavour which works pretty well for the overall taste.

Hainanese Burger 3.0: Big Mac Style Top Bun Chili Sauce Scallion Chicken Rice Patty - pan fried Cucumber Chicken Mayo Bottom Bun

[@eTiMaGo]

10/10 would eat that burger. I liked your approach with version 1.0, keeping it more "traditional" but just rearranging the parts... You could look up the Japanese chain "Mos Burger", they make burgers with rice buns, but I think they are cooked through a little more, and smaller, so they hold together quite well.

[@finalplate1208]

Thank you for the r&d. On the menu for the weekend. Including the "lots" of flavor Just had a quick idea. Use the rice to make rice flour and add Hianese chicken stock to it and make bread. Now you've got your rice buns

[@ttungsten000]

Fuyioh! looks really good , the flavours seems balanced well and the mayonnaise made with pandan oil is really interesting

[@elliotc88]

Tried the burger last week (Liz's, not McDonalds) - absolutely delicious. Shame it's only for a limited time but really appreciate the thought and imagination that went into it all!

I really liked how you did the first attempt.. Nothing beats Hainanese chicken rice so no matter how it's concocted you had all the right ingredients. Once you start adding buns and fried chicken into the mix its an insult to label it Hainanese chicken anything! Great effort and hope to get down to Mei Mei sometime soon to compare your version to that of Maxwell food centre.. If you know, you know!

FUIYOH!!!!AUNTIE LIZ’s first video after reaching 100K subs

[@alexandertan8592]

When i think of hainanese chicken burger, my first impression is that it is inspired by hainanese chicken chop dressed with hainanese chicken chop sauce. Hence, the burger has hainanese chicken chop sauce dressed on the fried chicken patty. However, i like your idea of your hainanese chicken rice burger though. As for bakuteh burger, u can use dried bakuteh sauce as an inspiration. Dried bakuteh can be found in klang, Malaysia too

[@akechi1990]

Fantastic attempt. Excellent video. Looks delicious. I have not tried McDonald Hainanese Chicken Rice Burger. You are right - lettuce/cabbage is not part of Hainanese Chicken Rice. It should be cucumber and scallion. To me, Hainanese chicken rice is chicken cooked in water. I reckoned to make it popular with younger generation, fried chicken will definitely work better and also for aesthetic value. Maybe you can try Hainanese pork chop burger (British Hainan cuisine). About the crispy rice patty, in Singapore we have this dish called pao fan (泡饭) which is crispy rice patty soaked rich flavorful rich stock and it is gaining popularity recently. Something you can consider for new menu item.

[@wendywilliams9334]

I would eat that burger, but may I suggest using the steamed chicken( skin and all) The taste would definitely be there with your pandan sauce Elizabeth and it would be less calories for the more calorie conscious people.Makes me wanna hop on a jet from Canada and come try it...💕

[@waterlily43]

The Macs burger was a 5.5 for me. The hainanese chicken rice flavour is as shy and subtle as a Ming Dynasty virgin. If your version ever came to sg I'd have to do a comparison for sure. It looks gooood.

[@TY-ob7fz]

You rock Liz !!! Exactly to mind how I would imagine it 🙈 the first. Maybe ground rice to make a bun (?) and steamed chicken thigh, skin on with ginger scallion olive oil, and sweetened flavor soy sauce drizzle.

[@EdricHsu]

Honestly, I’ve yet to try the McDonald’s version but I would totally order yours (with the crispy rice patties and poached chicken AND skin) if you have it in Singapore!

Auntie Liz, Firstly, a big congratulations on hitting 100K! I know you all worked hard to hit that milestone so congrats to you, peanut allergy (the filming is getting great and keying in on those critical learning moments in the pan!) and the rest of the team. Wonderful video here because you gave me so many ideas. I love the format and especially the friends dropping by (even if they're a bit dodgy lol) and informal nature... very nice format while still allowing me to see and master those recipes you are sharing!!! Oh, and it reminded me... you were going to share that full version of your nasi lemak when you hit a hundred thousand weren't you? Just a poke since I have been waiting for that video... I can get everything but the fresh pandan leaves (we only get frozen in New Hampshire/US lol)... i just need that step by step tutorial you promised ;-) Keep up the great work all.

[@LichlordAzazel]

Fuiyoh looks delicious! 😋😋 Also I love seeing Auntie Liz and Uncle Roger doin a collaboration Weejio 😊😊😊

[@dre3money1]

Could you incorporate the Rice into the coating of the chicken? dry out some chicken rice or even ground it up and mix with in with the dry coating for the chicken?

[@DZY49er]

You are gorgeous keep the videos coming auntie Liz

[@Towkeeyoh]

Yea I agree with the reviews of the Macdonald burger, to me, it's just a good decent chicken burger, but with chicken rice sauces. It's a harmless burger, but can be improved significantly as it really lacks the aromas of the rice & poached chicken. Liz's one... omg looks and sounds so good!

[@lesley90]

Fun 🍔 Your secret sauce sounds incredible

[@TheRealAndyB.]

Amazing video. Congrats Liz !!!!!!

[@paulmiyagishima7655]

[@GirlsLovebyFlo]

Bak Kut Teh has 2 versions here in Malaysia. There's the soup type and there's the rarer dry type. The dry type is a flavour punch.

[@tigesadventures3880]

you could like karaage marinade the chicken in the ginger sauce and then fry it

[@Blinddesire]

The burger looked really delicious, i loved the idea of the pandan infused mayo. I did think that a large tortilla could be used instead of bread to allow for the inclusion of rice. Strays from the burger theme but could be good~ Thanks for another lovely video.

[@benjaminkswong3592]

Hi Liz, How about a bread with rice flour, infused with ginger ... Chichen can be roasted abit ..

[@gwendyp125]

[@myronheng2921]

Yes, your 2.0 version is definitely a legit Hainanese Chicken Rice Burger compared to Macdonald's one! 😋😋😋 Liz, keep it up the great job!

[@kennethchongweithart7905]

In Malaysia we have a dry version of Bak Kut Teh...you could really play around with it...like Braised Dry Bak Kut Teh Pork brisket with deep fried enoki mushroom between the bun...

[@TheFrumpyDad]

You could do a bah ku teh burger like in the style of a French dip or Italian beef dip sandwich. Have the bah ku teh broth on the side to dip the sandwich in as you eat. Cook the pork ribs in the broth, then pull it from the bone to put in the sandwich. Not sure if mantou would work as the bun or some other bread. But pretty much no or very little veg in the sandwich?

[@R5516]

I wish I could try Mei Mei food for once in my lifetime. Love all your videos and learn a lot of good stuff from them. Keep it up!

[@jamesmichael3315]

Hi Liz, Dry BKT version is possible ... most likely become a braised pork bun

Hello chef, i actually have a suggestion try shredding the chicken and making a rice stuffed patty with breadding as rice to make a patty with crispy rice edge and soft chicken with rice in the inside

[@cscratchy5126]

Liked the v1.0 rice patties, perhaps incorporating the chicken within the rice patties might be an idea. Yum toasted rice, so authentic. Not a big fan of Hainanese chicken skin, use to give it o my sisters, prefer soy sauce chicken and dark meat. But definitely would try V2.0!

Uncle Roger would approve of the MSG, 'Never have too much MSG, be guided by the hand of your Ancestors'. I think Uncle Roger should try and make one and do a blind folded taste test comparison with you and your Burger. Looked beautiful BTW, would rather taste your version than McDonald's. And yes you are right, put it in a bun and us white people will eat it lol.

[@choomegumi4989]

There is something called as dry bak kut teh in Malaysia, I believe that can be made into a burger filing , something that looks like pulled meat burger or ribs burger idk. For me though, dry bak kut teh doesn't taste quite like the soup version but that is also a version of bak kut teh nonetheless, just a less well known version.

[@afblaze94]

she need to figure how to infuse the essence of bak kut teh into the meat probably something along the line like reducing the soup into thick sauce for the meat

[@samanthamcintire9036]

What's if you took your original idea with the rice burger patty but did it slightly thinner, and put that on the bun as well, maybe under the fried chicken, that way the taste of them rice is also fully present. I think the rice patty as well woukd be better if refridgerated overnight to dry out a little bit. But I think the combination of your finished chicken burger (that looks and sounds amazing), combined with the rice burger would be amazing.

[@rafaelbenitez2610]

I wonder if you could put a thiner fried rice(patty?) in the burger to with everything else to meet that chicken and rice criteria. I reckon that would work pretty well!

Brilliant video! My wife and I were discussing the bak kut teh burger/sandwich and thought you could incorporate the sauce by making an adaptation of a French dip or making consommé jelly from the broth. Whatever the case, look forward to your next video.

[@pavitranradakrishnan3672]

Yeah burger should be with buns but maybe stick to the Hainanese chicken with bone off and add another thin slice of the chicken rice patty as most of the flavor comes of it. Other that that, the chili sauce looks awesome, pandan mayo was super smart 😉

[@AugustonChee]

Aunty Liz there is this dry Bak Kut teh out there can take reference from there and slap on the buns. Might be a pull pork infuse with bkt flavours? Btw this burger looks good can this be a perm menu in Mei Mei! Would love to try next time when we can travel. With love from SG

[@alvinlee3724]

Just a suggestion, for BKT burger, maybe you can replace the bread with Youtiao, pork belly between the youtiao, thick bkt soup+garlic as sauce. Make it as bite size or in a spoon ?

[@ndrewlee]

BKT Burger can try the Dry BKT type....have it like pulled pork burger. No need sauce..use the braising sauce. www.mamadingskitchen.com/recipes-blog/klang-dry-bak-kut-teh whattocooktoday.com/dry-bak-kut-teh.html No coleslaw please....onions and green chillis and maybe fried ladies finger/okra instead of lettuce...or instead of fries, used fried okra strips.
