You guys worry too much about the negative comments. If they don't like free advice and videos then they don't have to watch. I've been watching you for years and honestly there's no better Chinese takeaway channel. Your food tastes amazing and you're a good laugh. So F the haters and keep doing what you're doing ❤

[@leeball4585]

Agreed. Ignore the negatives, let us fans fend off the haters for you - it's kind of our job.

[@davidmay2965]

Yeah, but in all fairness, Chin seems to love it in his replies, kind of like he like winding them up

[@mexicanroadsweeper]

Keep rolling 👌🏻

[@leen1q84]

I don't understand why they'd have haters in the first place!

[@redsparrow2771]

I have to say, you two have transformed my level of cooking. I regularly make Chinese meals for my family at home and my extended family. All thanks to the two of you. Being able to make chicken and sweetcorn soup as easy has made my husband very happy 😅. Thank you so much, truly. I shall be ordering your book for my mum who is a recipe woman, I'm more of a 'watch and learn' girl. Also please ignore the negativity, people will moan no matter what, all that matters is that you are good people doing a great job, keep it up 🤗

[@garty2237]

Same here, I'm cooking healthy vegetable and tofu based dishes all through the week for my family, plus one 'indulgent' dish (i.e. crispy beef, kung po etc) at the weekend. It's so easy.. big box of noodles, big bag of rice. Prepped ingredients in the freezer, onions, carrots and peppers in the fridge. Hardly have to think about it.

[@redsparrow2771]

@@garty2237 It's brilliant isn't it, so cost and time effective. I just make sure to cook the rice the night before, for all the effort it takes 😂. Very pleased to have found this channel.

[@MeeMenuchoth]

Me too, discovered the channel a few months ago and have a Chinese meal at least three times a week now. They make it so simple. Plus I've all sorts of sauces, pastes and spices in my cupboard I'd never used before. Is it wrong I'm now a little prideful about my spice cupboard. 🙈

[@rknorman]

I’ve made this and it’s guaranteed to be your go to recipe. Very quick and simple….. thanks Chin & Choo

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Glad you like it

[@jackdaffin335]

I came across this channel yesterday and have to admit I’m ADDICTED, your both so enjoyable to listen to and watch and I can’t wait to get in the kitchen and try these recipes myself , I would love to see you both show us how to properly cook spare ribs in bbq sauce the proper takeaway way as nothing iv ever tried at home really compares, keep up the great work both easily the best, honest most genuine Chinese takeaway cooking tutorials iv seen 10/10 both will be ordering your book very very soon

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

We’ve already got a video for it :) and thank you for the kind words :) means a lot to hear :)

Omg how have I missed it! spent must be 3 hours+ watching your vids, this is a must find! Thank you

[@leeball4585]

[@smoothcortex]

Try marmalade in your sweet and sour. It's my alternative to orange juice/squash, and works really really well!

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Yep tried before and it has a bitter after taste to me, but if you like it that’s all that matters!

[@smoothcortex]

@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop true true, I like the bitterness of orange rind mixed with the sweetness.

[@onlyeuphoria]

I literally can’t get enough of these videos! Top work guys I need to make this!

[@darrenburns16]

Anyone that thinks the chicken should be lightly cooked and tendee have neve r lived... For me, the dried out crispy chicken mixed with the sauce that makes it chewy is amazing

[@swordwaycom]

Thanks so much for your videos, you have upgraded my cooking abilities. I also love the banter you and your mum share - it makes the videos entertaining. I have been a fan of yours for several years. Keep up the good work and good luck!

[@k41zen12]

I'm not sure about everyone else, but I'd really like to hear some time saving tips. I love the tip about freezing after the first fry and then when ready to eat fry the second time. Are there any more tips you can give around bulk cooking meats and sauces and how to store so I can quickly grab them during the week and just eat?

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

If there are we normally always say in videos

Alright, I was waiting for the version of the sauce that uses Hoi Sin. There's a lot of variation in crispy beef/chicken between takeaways, both in terms of the meat and the sauce. Will be very interesting to try a different one.

[@bendavies3108]

Fantastic as always, I love your full blown sweet and sour, I always batch cook it in takeaway quantities 🤣 but my little one finds it too aromatic. Will try this and add a couple of slices of ginger. Giving me a grown-up and kid friendly sweet and sour in my recipe book.

[@PriyaPans]

Absolutely stunning recipe! You know the sauce recipe you make? How much of the final product is there. As you add 200ml water and other stuff but obviously you boil it down? So you use 100ml of it with the actual chicken - is that only a small amount of the mix you make or does it all reduce down to 100ml?

[@keeleyholman28]

I think your videos are great, ignore the trolls that spend time watching you anyway 😄 they clearly have nothing better to do. Love the mum in the videos 💙

And yet you make me hungry again!

Is the chilli beef the one to look at? (But using chicken of course). I have my boxing day ass hat on! Merry Xmas. 🤪

The custard powder batter, and we’d use our homemade sweet and sour sauce, whostershire sauce, brown sauce and hoi sin

I saw the chinese mates making that but with orange powder that contains sugar and some mix of chinese spices😅

[@RolandDeschain1]

I've noticed that with a lot of takeaways that I go to their 'sweet and sour sauce' is nothing but pink sugar syrup. No sour element at all. I tried a new place last week, spent $60 on food and it was almost completely flavourless. The stuff I make at home is matching or even bettering some of the Chinese take-away I used to eat growing up. Maybe because I'm not cutting corners on the ingredients.

[@curlysoo.67]
