⏰ 4 DISHES IN 42 MINUTES?! A Healthy Cooking Challenge

[@Drwendydearborne]

The content in this video exemplifies why 'Made With Lau' received two Beard awards. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, wisdom, techniques, skills and the most precious thing we have...your time!

[@MadeWithLau]

wow! thank you so much for the kind words and all of the love. it's an honor to share with you!

[@trevorhuey5923]

Please make more videos like this! I love the focus on health and showing how you can make multiple dishes at the same time. I always wondered how at the end of videos when you guys sit down to eat there are so many dishes on the table!

[@MadeWithLau]

We'll definitely have to do more challenges like this!

[@Wenirl]

He was not even rushing. This is easy peasy for Uncle Lau. 😂

[@stan6250]

its si fu lau

[@tonytony-u8g]

@@stan6250yup. Master Lau!

[@MadeWithLau]

looool so true! it's also a double meaning - a challenge for all of us to try ourselves!

[@julialee4036]

Really one of the best videos ever! Not only Made with Lau, but out of all the Chinese cooking videos ever! Nutritionally I learned so much: Cooking techniques and time savers as well as having fun! Daddy Lau really did it in real time! I am going to share this w my senior friends, my working kids with young children and busy lives. Thank you so much!

[@Leanna90033]

never stop making videos! i love him, he is now my grandpa

[@winnieyee3866]

I wish Daddy Lau would wash he hands after handling raw chicken. Just rising is not good enough. And that towel is full of salmonella bacteria. Food safety is so important. Your viewers may not do a good job in food safety as they can see he just wipe his raw meat cutting board with a towel and then grab the cornstarch box, etc. Someone will get food poisoning very easier if they do not pay attention. And, for the final dish, he wiped the plate dry with the same towel. My kids are learning to cook and they are questioning why he is not following the rules they learned at school. Dr Susan used our Canadian food guide. I love that guide, it is so visual to follow

[@clairepettitt7563]

Agree, one should never use the same cutting boards for cutting meat especially raw chicken and vegetable. Wiping with dish cloth only transfer the bacteria from the meat juices. Mr Lau & son should invest in colour coded chopping boards to differentiate & separate meat, fish & veg.

[@owenhu9465]

all the ingredients here are cooked hot so im less concerned for the food prepping part, but agreed on the towel, definitely be mindful of separating dirty and clean towels

[@HIP_Treasures]

Agreed. After handling raw meat, he should not be touching anything without properly washing his hands, knife and board.

[@patl4668]

I’m pretty sure this is very typical in most Chinese restaurants. If you think your restaurant is any different than this dream on. 😅

[@thierryfaquet7405]

MORE real time video please, this was amazing. I understand you can’t always have someone to interview to fill but it’s soooooo good. 👍🏼

[@alexanderstavropoulos1257]

my man grew up in different times, when the five second rule was more like the five minute suggestion. i wouldn’t harp on him so hard people. try to be more mindful of food safety in your own kitchens. he busted out all that preparation and cooking in record time, without breaking a sweat. i’m proud of you daddy lau. thanks for a healthy and delicious meal executed expertly

[@prinjauleklang5329]

Thanks Uncle Lau for all the good tips again. Do take care with potential poultry contamination using the dish cloth. Don't want salmonella poisoning!❤

[@behringerm]

As a fellow Family physician, I tell patients I take care of people 6 months before they are born to 2 minute after they die. I appreciate Dr/have done prenatal care, labor & delivery, post natal & well baby care, check on mom’s [physical and emotional] health and how the family is integrating. I frequently am seeing 3-4 generations in the same room (like Dr. Lo). Family Medicine physicians seem to lead the way into underserved communities. Bravo, Dr. Lo

[@fillistine]

Prep in advance, and cooking is quicker. He is and excellent prepper. Preparation is KEY for quick cooking

[@tonytony-u8g]

Daddy Lau is a Master @ Work! He makes it look so easy. It takes me a long time following the Master Chef. Made quite a few dishes from Mr. Lau and my daughter loves it!

[@kn7615]

I LOVE this wonderful doctor, too; thank you so much for bringing her to us. I have lost 50 lbs in the last three years working with a great integrative nutritionist (who teaches all this same stuff). ALL of my progress has happened by taking little mouse steps of change...and then big change was engaged by that. Mouse steps RULE! lol

[@starwang4939]

What an incredibly useful video to learn healthier cooking skills and concepts! And perfect timing as I'm trying to eat healthier this time of the year and create sustainable habits. Dr. Lo is so knowledgable and presents the information in an easily understood way; I'm sure she's an asset to her patients' health. Thanks to Made with Lau for making this video, would love to see more of this type of content.

[@Alotta-u4h]

Dad Lau probably thinkin "finally, i can activate God mode again and cook without having to explain stuff to newbies"

[@estherpettigrew3042]

😂 I was thinking the same thing!

[@MsTeeweetea]

Love watching dad at work in real time. Congratulations on the well-deserved awards mom n pop!! Usually i prep everything else first n then slice the meat last of all to prevent cross-contamination of all my spices/dry ingredients containers even if the wiping cloth may hv vinegar in it.

[@tonytony-u8g]

I’m from Oakland and work with Asian Health Care Services as a County govt worker. Glad to see your Pops come to my hometown in Oakland Chinatown.

[@Hyunucooks]

He is so chilled even when he rushes little bit. experience!!

[@kris.listen]

What an amazing video!! Greatly appreciate having real doctor in the overlay! What a lovely meal!

[@bxw2721]

It appears that the carrot at 4:44 plus the celery later on, had already been peeled and washed. The chicken looks already cleaned [washed] because at 5:55 it was bloody on the plate. At 12:15, I heard the salt would also get rid of any bugs hiding inside the broccoli. Therefore preparation such as having water already boiled ahead cuts your time. Papa Lau has his time management for this video under control, no sweat.

[@estherpettigrew3042]

I also noticed some minimal prep done (like having the kitchen ready to go). But, like you said, this in no way invalidates his skillful time management of the process. And it’s a great lesson to all of us to keep our kitchens ready to go. Mom had me cleaning up while she was cooking. Made it quick and easy to “reset” the kitchen after a meal.

[@tinalaplaca6638]

thank you for documenting these dishes. these were my childhood dishes too. Stupid me, l never got these recipes from my mom. but now l have your videos to reference back to

[@swtoronto1863]

Thank you for all that you guys do on this channel. Blessings to your family.

[@tinanguyen2418]

Ohhhh this new model is interesting. I love the interview to fill in the gap but still relevant to the theme. Maybe do more theme real live cooking. I would love to know more about you and your parent. For example, your Dad’s hometown while he cooks his favorite hometown/childhood meal. He is such OG.

[@Alotta-u4h]

really cool concept of a video. i love it!

[@meisanvanderschans1316]

My Gung Gung last name was also Lau. So watching this makes me feel like watching my Gung Gung cook when I was little.

[@rachelku3561]

Love the real time videos! Should make more of these 😊

[@Xkittyloverr1997]

I love you guys! My aunt has a very similar stance. "Do the best you, but it's ok to have a few hills you're willing to die on"

[@StraightforwardTech]

Who got daddy Lau a new kettle for Christmas? Lol the Fellow kettle with the gooseneck was slowing him down

[@shaunhurst2595]

Your dad is a god damn national treasure!!!

[@serenefoo145]

Well done Daddy Lau and I will try this healthy receipe for our CNY

[@purpleowl2075]

Your dad is so wholesome - brown rice contains arsenic though and seniors will find it easier to digest white rice

[@estherpettigrew3042]

The risk-benefit analysis hasn’t been rigorously done yet. Heck, the amount of arsenic in brown rice depends on where it comes from. And white rice has arsenic too. As do many plants. This is not a reason to stop eating fruits and vegetables. Avoiding arsenic completely is impossible as it is in the air we breathe. But let’s do a rough back-of-the-napkin calculation. (TLDR: over half a pound of the cooked brown-white rice mixture) Brown rice has an average of about 150 parts per billion, it’s about 1.5 times the amount in white rice. Yet preliminary studies (on white Europeans only) shows brown rice reducing the chances of developing diabetes by 16%. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10375490/ But what is a safe level of arsenic? According to www.efsa.europa.eu/en/plain-language-summary/update-risk-assessment-inorganic-arsenic-food “In 2009, EFSA’s Panel on Contaminants in the Food Chain (CONTAM) adopted a scientific opinion on the presence of arsenic in food and concluded that the minimum amount of inorganic arsenic that produces a clear, low-level health risk for these effects lies between 0.3 and 8 µg/kg of body weight (bw) per day.” So, let’s be conservative and consider a light weight adult who is 50 kg and calculate 0.3 µg/kg/day. That’s 15 µg/day which is 0.015 mg/day. Now, let’s take the average amount of arsenic in brown rice of about 150 parts per billion. Converting to parts per million, that’s 0.150 parts per million which is the same as 0.150 mg per kg of rice. So if your sole arsenic intake that day is from brown rice and you weigh 50 kg and you want to stay below the lowest end of the safe daily intake amount, your daily limit is 100 grams of brown rice. BUT, I didn’t see any notation on whether this was 100 grams of cooked rice or raw rice. I assume raw (because calculating for cooked would require standardizing the cooking method which is just adding more variables). So, this means that your daily limit is probably about 150 grams of cooked brown rice. Since Uncle Lau was making a half-and-half brown and white white mix and brown is about 1.5 times the arsenic of white, that means your limit is 120 grams of uncooked rice combo which is about 240 grams (which is over half a pound) of the cooked rice combo.

[@kn7615]

I LOVE this SO MUCH!!! Thank you, Papa Lau!! And thank you to your wonderful son who adds so much healthful info for us 🙂

[@susanweiler4948]

Thank you for this wonderful video. Collaborating with the Asian Healthcare really helps me understand & cook healthy meals for my family.

[@kn7615]

His knife work is SO enviable, lol...I aspire...

[@CreatorImagines16]

He casually chops a celery in 30 seconds, that's amazing knife skills.

[@the_leez_1974]

👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍 yeah uncle lau did it again nothing is hard for him. Great job. I wish I gotten to bump in to you guys to say hi in Chinatown . Awesome to see new post. 劉縮縮同家人新年快樂。 大家身體健康

[@kn7615]

wow...blanching chicken....did not know this way

[@GhostKnightTech]

Is there a good substitute for cornstarch for someone who's allergic to corn?

[@kristin7146]

Potato starch

[@llouie4659]

No sweat, and Mr Lau remains cool and humble

[@TygerBleuToo]

Should we be washing the cutting board after we’ve cut chicken?

[@kristin7146]

If everything going on the cutting board is getting cooked after being chopped on it, then the heat is going to get rid of any concerns about things like salmonella. If you're concerned, you can always have a separate veggie and meat cutting board ready to go.

[@LaNiEpo0]

I had the same thought too! I always thought you were supposed to have separate cutting boards for meat and everything else.

[@cerisen]

Bravo chef un diner complet vite fait sain gouteux félicitation merci

[@vladbrad27]

Brilliant! Thank you

[@gort400]

AMAZING! Thank You!

[@cathybeverage]

This was a very informative video.

[@Kevin_Ng974]

I love this concept

[@johnyjchen]

Wow, thanks for showing us the whole process. Time to show us the clean up part now😂

[@MadeWithLau]

Oooo I should’ve left the cameras rolling hahah

[@Doris-s8e]

He is a superb cook

[@danny1682]

Just one thing. Blanching leaves all the water-soluble vitamins in the water.

[@markshen3280]

UNCLE LAU, Wishing you and your family members a very blessed, prosperous, healthy, and HAPPY CHINESE 🇨🇳 NEW YEAR 🏮🏮🏮🏮🏮🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧

[@AliceLee-rj2ew]

Is it safe to blanch the chicken and the vegetable in the same water? Happy New Year!!

[@bettyli3737]

Mr. Lau is amazing👍😋👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Honey-nn2wy]

Daddy Lau to Randy: “stop asking questions. Just watch.” 😅

[@cacao123451]

I uses Rice Bran Oil is it healthy

[@sarahtruth2643]

Love so cute ❤😊 father and son.

[@onasazi]

I wonder if the water used for slurry isn’t the same used for rincing his hands??? 😮 besides that i did enjoy this format of video and tips! ❤

[@frostyfly31122]

besides blanching, i would recommend using an airfryer. its great for getting some texture in ur foods with minimal oil.

[@supernova8962]

YUM YUM

[@riverstar1506]

A wonderful video. I love Chinese food, but can no longer have it. I have learned I cannot have grains, potatoes, starch or sugar or soy. (I stop breathing if I consume soy. I am fond of breathing.) I did find a no-soy tamari. I have found a lentil rice substitute. But all the slurries and the commercial sauces have things I cannot have, like gums. I have found a recipe to make my own oyster sauce, but have not had a chance to get the ingredients. It's very sad, really.

[@ethanf.6848]

Families should help out with the prep and cooking. Not a difficult skill to pick up, impossible to learn as an observer. Dad should play the role of critic for a change.

[@tktyga77]

You know that frozen produce can be just as healthy as fresh ones & tend to have been already blanched, often first coming up in stores that way? Also, it turns out that other oils like mustard oil can be just as healthy & usable as olive oil can & the arguments for having disallowed its sales beyond external uses have been tested on rats & don't needfully extend over to humans in the same way, I mean East Indian cooking uses it alot to name a few. Still, those are handy tips to look into

[@arnijulian6241]

I do agree with her that people eat way to much rice & more so potatoe especially in the Anglo-sphere. I tend to eats rolled oats in rice cooked in stock with tumeric/cumin or some other mixture. You could eat oats daily for every meal & not end up with high blood sugar which is the only reason the Scots were healthy back in the day. Still oats take time time to get use to if not ate young. Cauliflower or cabbage though the latter in moderation due to thyroid effects are other ways to bulk rice with vegitables. You can put bell pepper & peas in most dishes like onion. The amount of people that don't know how to make rissotto amazes me as Arborio rive though it takes pratice to cook can be combined with just about any ingriedient added be it cheeses, fungus, nuts, vegitables etcetera. Still you want nutrition then I recommend soup made with no water but cococnut milk like pumpkin & coconut soup or the like. Good way to get Vitamin A & potassium in you! I basically live of canned coconut milk full fat & milk in a multitude of dishes.

[@arnijulian6241]

What I ate today was Carbonarra made with pancetta & ratatouille as a side since my mother enjoys French dishes while my brother enjoys italian.

[@arnijulian6241]

Olive oil for frying? Use peanut oil as a high smoke point. Olive oil is making bread, pasta or salads etctera. Not for frying unless certain fish or meat! Sunflour, peanut, Pumace oil is used for frying though fat is traditionally used in most dishes from pork that needs no oil to fry & the give off oil can be used to make saurces or for all sorts of frying. olive oil is most all use but frying as pork is for frying! Lardo, Strutto & Sugna are 3 words for type of lard as it was that common in traditional cooking. Olive oil to fry; what they mistakenly teach people today! Walnut, hazel nut & such is for salad dressings when not olive oil. Safflower Oil can be used for frying or baking but is mainly for marinades & dips! Very high in Omega 6 & vitamin E. it is not to everyones taste mind though very healthy when compared to other oils for frying.

[@wongkelena]

Thought the Doctor mentioned not to much contstarch.. it seem every dishes had some..? Thebroccoli is over blanch... it hd lost it natural colour.

[@Loxalair]

I'm not here to see if he can do it. I know Greatuncle Lau can. I just want to know how he did it. It takes at least an hour just for me to make two dishes, let alone four Regarding the plate distribution of foods, what I've started doing is just having the one small bowl of white rice, and then a flat bowl filled with my veggies and proteins, so I can serve myself from there. I live alone, so having multiple serving dishes doesn't work, and if I put my rice into a larger bowl to put the other food on top, western style, I always end up with a lot more rice

[@kayaba8702]

You must learn your dad’s cooking or else when he passes, who is going to cook?

I want Cantonese intensive lessons somehow! this language is not taught anymore and they want it to be extinct....my mom spoke it and I never did...now I want to !!!!! born in 60s

[@sharonblythe3807]

The dad is touching the raw chicken and then get into the other food like corn starch etc without wash8ng his hands…not sure about this habit

[@鄧運霖]

這算什麼挑戰? 對於廚師而言，根本就像是吃飯喝水呼吸一樣的簡單呀。

Using a stainless steel spatula on a nonstick pan !?😮

[@kristin7146]

Did you not see the rubber/plastic on the end of the spatula?

[@Alotta-u4h]

but white rice is soooo good come on

[@Nom_AnorVSJedi]

But I prefer white rice.

[@hkervyn]

It's not healthy to use metal spatula in nonstick wok.

[@kristin7146]

The spatula has rubber/plastic on the end of it. Look again.

[@aydapatriarca5692]

Your dad is truly a chef . ❤ He has the art of truly and excellent tasty cooking . The Lord Jesus gave him a gift that cannot take away from him . I’m sure you are so proud of your father . 💃👌🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@tmm_3003]

Shouldn't the chicken be cut on a different board and with a different knife?

[@howai]

Please use separate cutting boards for meat and vegetables. Also don’t use the same towel you wipe the cutting board down to wipe the plate you’re using to serve the final product.

[@susanralph274]

I think the word Asian is not a good idea...best to keep it to languages from now on, because we don't need to cater to politically 'correct' ideals which actually endorse fear and confusion
