2nd of your videos I watched. I was scared at first thinking that the sauce was all oil, an amazing technique to flavour the oil, a new skill learnt. Didn't realise how much time goes into making Chinese curry sauce. I made a recipe which is simple, dry fry flour, curry powder and spices, add a block of butter, fry and then add boiling water. Works well. But I know for a fact this will destroy mine. Will be trying next week. New subscriber. Thanks for sharing the knowledge.

@donny121able6 күн бұрын
@Shah2 I don’t measure ingredients, but here’s how I make it: In a wok, dry-fry some flour (no oil). This step removes the raw flour taste. Keep the flour moving constantly, and once it’s heated through, give it a few extra minutes of frying. Add your spices to the flour and fry for about 30 seconds, still keeping everything moving. Next, add a good chunk of butter-it has to be butter. Fry the mixture for another minute or two, being careful not to burn it. Quite a bit of Butter is used. At a guess, I would use a cup of flour to half a cup of butter (maybe a little more butter if anything) Pour in boiling water straight from the kettle, enough to achieve a gravy-like consistency. The mixture should bubble vigorously, combining the ingredients and thickening as it cooks. Simmer for a few minutes, then taste. If it still tastes floury, continue simmering a little longer. For quickness, you can use a curry spice blend and some chilli for heat, but feel free to experiment with different spices. Sometimes, I fry vegetables or meat in a separate pan and add the sauce to it. Sorry, I don’t use measurements-just go by feel. Don't forget to season with salt, once cooked you can add extra spices if you want to adjust the taste but I find it best when it's spiced at the beginning. It takes little time to make and is probably a lot easier than I have made it sound. Hope it works for you...

Just finished making a batch of this i never thought that i cud get anywhere near the flavour or quality of my local Chinese restaurant which i love and ive been trying recipes from all over the Net for at least 15 years and failed so many times this is unbelievable its so much more than i was expecting, i thought that it would taste something like those pots from asda's which aren't that bad but not perfect chin and choo thank you -you both are master chefs and to any one that is worried that they cant do it its easy accept for the stirring which kills your rist but its worth it thank you💯👌

When I used to get Chinese curry sauce as a teenager it was so nuch tastier than now - the one across from my parents' house was GORGEOUS, and I still remember it to this day. It's now kind of 'flat' and almost bland at all the places I've tried over the past few years. I wonder if a lot of them are now using a shortcut method instead of this method.

@Tampo-tiger9 ай бұрын
Totally agree. Looking at all the flavour-building ingredients in Ziang’s sauce, it’s no wonder other shops’ sauce is too bland. My local one, Ocean, in Chandlers Ford Hampshire was absolutely incredible, plus his use of tastier thigh meat, flash- scorched Spanish onion and mushroom, and a few sweet peas made it perfect, but they sold up and went travelling. Now nobody makes decent curry around here so I’ve given up trying new places. I hope HK Chinese take-aways aren’t starting to die out. It has been one of the best things about the UK for a long time, but something’s not right. Thank goodness for places like Ziang’s.

Chin and (the adorable) Choo, thank you so much for sharing your takeaway secrets with us. You're both absolute dynamite and a lot of fun to watch. I can't think of a better pairing of mother and son on KZbin. You guys absolutely rock. We've always loved a Chinese takeaway in my family. It was often a late Saturday night treat for us when we were kids back in the 80s and remains so for me to this day. My 4 year old daughter has literally spent the whole day begging me for a Chinese takeaway this evening. My father spent months experimenting on how to make a proper Chinese takeaway curry sauce but he never quite got there. I wish he were stilll around to see your videos, as he would've been an instant subscriber! I'll be trying your curry sauce recipe for sure, to see if I can capture that takeaway magic.

@robertandrewbain2 жыл бұрын
@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop I have the made the paste using the kit. I have some observations. When I added the fresh herbs paste the mixture went very dark. When I look at this recipe vs the volume of the curry kit, both call for 30g each of fresh coriander, mint, basil, however the kit uses almost half the volume of spices and oil as this recipe. Is this a mistake on the kit instructions? I followed the recipe to the letter and it's good but it's not exactly what I'm looking for. Maybe it's a Scotland vs England thing but what I'm looking to reproduce is less strongly curry flavoured. More mellow if you will. It's lighter in colour to this and if you leave it overnight, it turns to jelly. I tried a cornstarch slurry (didn't have potato starch) to see if thickening a thin (less concernrated) sauce would get me there but that didn't work. I wonder if they're using a different curry powder up here. It's definitely not madras, I've tried Rajah, TRS and East End pastes using Madras powder and it tastes too strong and is the wrong colour. I'm open to the possibility of it being me not getting it right but I followed the video closely. Nothing tastes bitter or burnt and I believe I cooked the paste out correctly. It looks smooth and doesn't produce a grainy curry like I've done in the past when I've undercooked the final stage. On a positive note, the beef prep works wonders, I didn't even freeze it - cutting thinly against the grain and the marinade alone made it as tender as I would hope for.

Hey guys, if you wanted to make a nice spicy sauce what sort of chillies would you tend to use and how many. When would you add the? Thanks

Really depends on flavour you want

@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop I tend to use a lot of Kashmiri chillies when I’m doing Indian foods because of their Smokey flavour, I use those round chillies quite a lot when I just want a mild heat without much flavour change, the frozen red or green chillies when I want a good heat blast (adding naga chilli for a nice hot experience, although they do have add a distinctive flavour) I’ve not used Thai birds eye chillies much, would they be the recommendation here or Szechuan pepper maybe? I.e. what do yous guys suggest?

Thanks for the recipe, ingredients can be hard to come by locally to make your own.
