Watching your dad cook is like watching Bob Ross paint. He makes everything seem so simple and straightforward, yet you can tell every technique has been practiced and refined over and over again. It's really cool just watching a master at work.
@louisng7539 Жыл бұрын
Daddy Lau is such a pro. I just noticed he blanched the bok choy stem ends down since they're harder to cook than the leafy end. Then he kept them all lined up during the cook, so it'll easier to pick up multiple ones with just chop sticks. Then, he shocked the veg in ice bath leaf end down to stop the cooking on that side first. Finally, even evacuating to a plate, he kept them all lined up, so it'll be easier to plate nicely later on. All the motions make sense and maximizes efficiency. Total chef moves.

I watched your videos, to cook for him. Your sharing of the recipes and techniques brought joy to his final days as I prepared your dishes. He kept smiling and telling me you are such a good cook. His favorite was the Congee! 💛💛💛 The irony is your kitchen looks just like his. Chris may you rest in peace.

Great recipe! In Indonesia, we call this "Bakwan Tahu", probably brought in by Chinese immigrants back then and localized as a snack, rather than a dish. My mom made this with Tempeh as a twist and the texture is quite similar to meat (she's vegetarian).

Can u initially pan fry them to get a par-cooked crust and then use an airfryer later to properly finish cooking it. Also KFC copycat recipes missing secret ingredient is actually the White Pepper and Celery Salt. Corporate KFC recipe after 2005 has less sodium in it which means less or no salt in them like regular salt and garlic salt as it's likely that they kept the celery salt in the recipe. Jollibee's spicy ChickenJoy uses habanero chili powder to give that slow burn spicy taste.
