@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop I have both eagerly awaiting part Trois 😀❤️

[@Christopher_S]

Oh you two are the most adorable pair on the internet. I love this channel, it's so wholesome. Also, I've gained much needed weight since watching this, saved god knows how much money from making my own versions of things, and I've also got a decent set of pans (with wok) for the first time in my life.

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Thank you so much :) means alot to hear 😊😊😊😊

[@RoachasBJJ]

Hi guys would like to say a massive thank you for all your content, I'm a dad of 4 and ordering take away is sometimes super expensive and I'm shocking at cooking, the wife does it all. I love these chips when ordering take away. I'm glad I came across your super easy to follow videos. Just let you know I have just completed the chips and they was unbelievable I can't belive how good they was, I've purchased all the ingredients for the following from your videos. Pepper chili chips Chicken satay on skewers Crispy chili chicken Egg fried rice. I need to get a deep fat frier to make it even easier! Keep up the good work.

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Wow thats a hell of a list

[@RoachasBJJ]

@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop hell ya, can't wait to see how they all turn out, I'm getting the frier today :)

[@jonathandowdall2969]

I think yous are brilliant and a joy to watch, tired cooking some of your dishes and they are top class children are over the moon,, so thank yous for sharing

Loved it. Great to see you two back again, KZbin wasn’t the same without you. Much love x

Lol thanks, cant wait to start releasing again

You guys need more love I worked in a great Chinese for just over 3 years and learned a lot and your presentation on these vids are amazingly good. Big man, stress less of the world, you have amazing mum support which is the biggest thing

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Thank you so much, but we are more than happy with what we have :)

[@Annniiiiiiiiii]

Tell your mum not to worry about her English, she's still very understandable when she speaks. My mum's been in the UK for 25 years and even she has her days of mispronouncing stuff. Edit: also i subbed, look forward to seeing you recipes :)

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Will do 😊😊😊😊😊

[@jamiearmitage8968]

Thank you for the recipe. I didn't have chunky chips nor green peppers so used red peppers and lidl fries... but it turned out great! Love you guys, your video's are fantastic and insightful!! ❤️

[@cynthiarose1770]

This to me is real food...the reason is they arent afraid of flavour!! Love how they dumped all those spices in, fantastic!

[@GenericGamePlays-gy7nn]

Just made my first ever full Chinese’s takeaway at home I made special fried rice chicken balls salt pepper chips and prawn toast all from your recipes also o Bought your book so it will make it easier .. although I spent almost 3 hours cooking and cleaning included

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Thank you 😊

[@jme_a]

Really like the new setup with the static camera pointing down at the prep area, much easier to watch than the handheld footage. Only minor complaint would be the aduio when the pan is on, difficult to hear you guys - could do with a lapel mic? Will definitely be trying this recipe out :D

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

We normally have them but the last set we had both melted as i put a pan down on them, the replacements i got dont seem to work

[@greycosmos6113]

This is my first recipe from you guys and omg, it was so delicious and easy to make. I can’t wait to try out your other recipes, thanks!

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Really happy it worked out for you :)

[@CodGodess]

I used your example and the kids were impressed they said it was on par with the local take away so I was pleased 😀

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Thats amazing to hear :)

I've just made this and it's delicious. I've tried to make salt and pepper chips before using a dodgy recipe off a popular website and it was awful. I now know that SAND GINGER IS THE BEST FLAVOUR EVER. There are no substitutes for it.

They look great, thanks for sharing - I might give these a try as we had some last night from our local takeaway. My son wasn't keen though - because they'd put onions in the dish, so I'll omit the onions for him and then add the cooked onions at the end for us :) x

I will use my air fryer to do the chips. However, would I be okay to use sunflower oil to pan fry the vegetables, garlic and seasoning? or is vegetable oil a must?

Any as long as it has no flavour

My favourite takeaway does them with a bit of fresh chilli diced in. Even some local Indian takeaways have added a version of salt and pepper chips to their menus. They do there's with the Indian takeaway style chips too. Different flavours to chinese takeaway style, but still very tasty.

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Sounds awesome

Here in Lincoln the recipe is a little different but identical in every take-away... Tesco skanky chips, salt, pepper and two or three micro slices of green pepper and onion... Done.

[@christopherwhitehead8946]

How long do you let the chips sit, between first and second frying? Do you let them go cold? Regarding the chips, I actually find it quite difficult to find frozen frying chips in the supermarket, they seem to assume everyone wants oven chips. I hate them!

Sand ginger and it’s hard to find, hence why we sell it on our webstore www.chinandchoo.com/shop

[@MrCrustyJusty]

Love that use MSG. I hate that people talk about it like it’s a chemical. They have no clue what it’s even made from or how it’s made!

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Yeah and then when they do they reference outdated research or say things that don't even make sense like natural msg is ok, your body can't tell the difference lol

[@MrCrustyJusty]

@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop I just love that people don’t realise there’s more MSG in a serving of broccoli than you would ever add to your food. I think it was just misinformation set out by salt companies just like sugar did with other forms of sweeteners. There’s been plenty of studies now to prove that there’s no problem with using MSG in moderation. Also that it was way safer on the body than salt.

[@ZiangsFoodWorkshop]

Its was xenophobia that propagated the myths

[@ruzhyophoenix4370]

I completely blagged this a couple weeks ago and it was good, not amazing but close. I did use szechuan pepper simply because I liked the taste and dimension it offered. I also prefer the onion and pepper sliced in thin strips as opposed to chopped. I used regular powdered ginger, how does that fare as a substitute for the sand ginger?

I've only seen these once, on the menu of a Chinese takeaway not far from Manchester Airport. And I got them out of fascination for how something could be more than twice as expensive as the regular chips, with the addition of two usually free ingredients. Well, there was a tiny bit more to it than that, but that particular one: oh... extremely salty. I sooo regretted not getting two portions of regular chips.
