cooking a 8 course meal for my family 🥘 *easy home-cooked recipes*

Hi, I'm Tiffy :)
Lately, my family and I have been a little homesick. We were supposed to be traveling back to Taiwan, but with life and many unexpected events, we had to cancel our trip. So I thought, why not surprise my family with an 8-course meal with dishes that remind us of home?
I started prepping the day before to help us save some time on the day of the dinner. We started with my signature Braised Pork Belly Rice, I then wrapped up some wontons and made sure to make enough to have some in the freezer for the future! Next up, the buns for the Gua Baos, which will be featured in my cookbook! We ended the night by marinating the chicken for the Popcorn Chicken, and soaking the rice for the Sticky Rice.
The next day, we started by cutting all the veggies and making the Sticky Pork Belly for the Gua Baos. We then moved on to my grandma’s Sticky Rice, which features my SECRET SAUCE!! We deep-fried the Popcorn Chicken and made a big batch of my favorite Spicy Cucumber Salad. Next up, we got Steamed Eggplant drizzled in the most delicious garlic sauce. We boiled up the wontons from yesterday and made a spicy dipping sauce using my secret sauce! And last but not least, we got the beautiful Steamed Fish!
Let me know which dish was your favorite and if you enjoyed this episode of Cooking For My Family!

[@doreenho1787]

I love everything about Taiwan & your recipes. Can’t wait to receive your cookbook in Feb next year! 😘 from Singapore

[@hahaxitsfeebs]

Another amazing video! Love! I think it's so awesome that you're teaching people how to make Taiwanese food. For the longest time there were no good resources on KZbin (Koreans had Maangchi and Seonkyoung Longest, Japanese had Cooking with Dog). Even though I'm Taiwanese I know how to make more Korean food because of this and barely know any Taiwanese recipes. Thank you for the Taiwanese food lessons!!!

[@simplyellenxo95]

I can’t get enough of your channel. 😍 especially because I’m a foodie myself.

[@coloradocool5947]

Your family is lucky to have you who is so enthusiastic about cooking. Growing up I always cooked. Then I went into the chef's apprentice program and got about 1/2 through and quit. The demands and fast pace was ruining my love for cooking so I quit. The money wasn't any good but I'm happier learning different styles of cooking and I'll order your cook book soon. Thanks for sharing and for a superbly edited video!

[@virginiaeriguel8738]

All recipes looks delicious and healthy Thanks for sharing all

[@mon6745]

The fried thai basil had me literally salivating!

[@msbelldrum]

I love all the dishes in this episode. ❤ Good luck on your cookbook!

[@carolineindacityphx]

Tiff: Can I have a bite. Dom: No. 😂 I feel that that was the appropriate response. ❤ I follow another KZbinr who was showing Gyozas. Between this channel and that one, I am so hungry right now. Oh, man. A feast for a King!!! 😋 Thank you for sharing your recipes and showing us the step-by-step method. 🥰

[@bluegum7779]

Hi Tiffy, I just got back from visiting my mum in Taiwan and much as I loved the food there, there were many dishes that we had, such as the popcorn chicken, braised pork belly rice and won tons where I thought TIFFY'S VERSION IS BETTER!!

Junk foods, unless they are whole grains, I would not eat them even if you would pay me

[@told1158]

With any luck. I'll be close to that when her cookbook arrives at my door next year. I won't be too ambitious and strive for at least once a month.

[@kierrascott2271]

I just wanted to say that you are amazing and I really do enjoy watching your cooking videos. They always make me hungry lol wishing you lots of happiness. Happy Thanksgiving quick question where do you get your cooling racks from and have a great day ❤

Having own cook book and channel..Proceeds to label everything as **EASY** 😅 sure sure so easy

[@aneesa2023]

Thanks for the vid :)

[@tiffyycooks]

Thanks for watching!!!

[@helenelareine]

Looks good ! How do you keep the food hot since you're cooking everything in advance? Or how do you reheat everything to keep the texture intact?

[@tiffyycooks]

Popcorn chicken actually tastes good even after air fry the next day!! Stick rice just needs a quick 2-3 min re-steam to heat up! ❤❤ rest I cook them almost all at the same time haha 😅

[@bhabestv26]

Wow❤😊

Great job! Your family looks soo pleased! I'm at a point now where I can look at ingredients and just know that they will taste superb and you got it girl! I made your Soy Glazed Chicken Thighs for my wife and the aroma from the pan and the juicy, tasty pieces of heaven we bit into because of you was nothing short of miraculous! We were in a rut with cooking before so thanks for that and keep cooking, *"You're gonna be a staaaa!"*

[@coveredgirldesign5414]

I need that bao recipe!!!

[@koreanconvenience]

I tried your chicken adobo recipe, it really is a rice craver. Have you though of doubling it so there's more sauce for the rice. Anyways great video as always and the food looked so yummy!

[@shevanz1589]

i cant get your cook book yet but i was wondering if its possible for you do to a video on the staple items to have in your kitchen for those wanting to try recipes from your cook book? Id like to get a head on prep work :D

[@shevanz1589]

i could figure it out on my own but ill be honest, i do have a small attention span and i figured it was a good idea for a video if youre interested in doing one like that

[@honeybun777]

Your husband is so lucky

[@coffeestainsvancouve]

I’m so curious why you choose vegetarian oyster sauce?! This feast looks incredible!

[@Grace_Tseng]

How do you keep the food warm when you have to cook so much?

[@wendyshoowaiching4161]

Braise Meat. Put fried garlic instead of fried shallots. Add fresh shitake mushrooms slices is delicious too

[@sapphireemerald9543]

I love pork❤

Could you please recommend a good chilli oil? Recently discovered your channel and I really enjoy all your videos. Thank you

If you want to keep the fat in the Lu Rou Fan for a pot that size add a heaping tablespoon of peanut butter at the end mix well and all the good fat emulsify into the pot. Credit to Eric Sze .

Can one purchase the 4 seasons scallion sauce and the golden shallot oil online? Any recommendations? Otherwise can someone make them themselves? Alternatively, what would be the best substitutes? I don't even know what these 2 ingredients taste like...
