He shouldn't be thanking us, it is us who should be thanking him. I'm very grateful for the knowledge and experience he is sharing.

@mikiewifnoe360 10 месяцев назад

I made the original recipe. I always hated eggplant. But watching the video, it intrigued me. So I gave it a shot. Man was I surprised, I loved it and was very please to have tried it. As for all the other dishes I have tried from Dady Lau I can say 99 percent have been wonderful.

@Josh_Green44 10 месяцев назад

Same here! I had good eggplant ONCE, years ago, at a Dim Sum restaurant. I've been trying to replicate that recipe ever since. I WANT to like eggplant, and I want to be able to prepare it in a delicious way because they're so cheap, beautiful, and easy to grow in abundance. I gave this recipe a try earlier this year, and the sauce was wonderful. The eggplant was *tolerable* enough that I'll be giving it another try. One step closer....

@ab01205 10 месяцев назад

I like to cut eggplant on half (long side) and then cut 4cm ish chunks (short side) and microwave for about 3-4 mins and add garlic, Chinese vinegar, olive oil and salt/soy sauce to taste. It's very quick and simple yet very good.

@bobrianfo104 9 месяцев назад

eggplants are like sponges for flavour, if you cut them in half on the long side and score them on the flesh side in a grid pattern without cutting the skin (season it with whatever you like, aromatics, herbs, the sky is the limit) and then slow cook it in the oven with olive oil it turns into a flavour packed paste you can spread on bread or even add to sauces/stews

@DenLim123 9 месяцев назад

You must be a white person, I have never met anyone that doesn't like eggplants except for uncultured whites

@otterspotter 10 месяцев назад

Your dad is such a great guy. I love listening to him talk about, and watching him cook. Up until he mentioned "ginger" he was doing everything I was taught growing up for eggplant dishes, but in a Spanish tradition. It's one of my favorite vegetables, so makes me happy to see that whether from a Chinese or Spanish perspective, we all know what to do. Much respect.

@andreasbiesenbach9947 10 месяцев назад

Every time I am amazed by how much love and passion your father cooks and how much effort and passion you put into creating the videos and recipes. a big thank you from Germany!

This recipe looks delicious. We can get the long, thin purple Chinese eggplants here in 🇨🇦. I'm going to try it with those instead. What a delightful family. Wishing Daddy Lau many more years of creative cooking and introducing us in North America to cooking techniques which have been around for thousands of years. Your father is s truly sweet guy.

@orientalmoons 10 месяцев назад

8:00 Aubergine is also its name in British English. I didn't know it was the German name though too. Thanks for showing how to use the common Western type of aubergine, I don't have anywhere that local to get Chinese produce so it would be a special trip into the big city to get some. Compared to being able to buy them for £0.89 in the supermarket (that's about $1.05) here.

@barney6888 6 месяцев назад

I discovered a very similar eggplant (Szechuan) in Toronto and it's so good, you can't stop eating it. This is really great stuff. The place is closed now, but you can get this at almost any true Chinese place like we see here. Oh, it's so good.

Looks good. I will try making it. Mine turned out good tasting but soggy before. That looked like an awful lot more than 4 or 5 tablespoons of oil, but I get why you need it. Thanks!

@wendyshoowaiching4161 8 месяцев назад

I always peel off all the skin. Cut french fries (1cm width) The fresh is so smooth and softly delicious. 1. Generous oil in pan press and stir fried till softly cook. Stir fried mince meat in oyster sauce, light sauce, garlic, chopped shallots, shaoxing wine, little sugar, dash of maggi soy sauce, water, add in egg plant. Diced red bell pepper (optional)

this is just what I needed!! I had some big globe eggplants that didn't have a dish to be made into, but now I know what to make tonight :) Always thankful for the Lau family's recipes to learn more about Canto cooking, it feels like learning from family

@ziggybender9125 10 месяцев назад

Try this one. Don't even worry about peeling sections, just slice into 1/4 inch slices long ways. Salt both sides and place on wire rack for 1 hour, wipe all moisture off. Season and pan fry both sides till black colors start to show. Enjoy, trust me it's legit good and I agree a lot of other eggplant recipes are bleh.

@un959 10 месяцев назад

This is brilliant! Thanks to you and your dad so much for describing how to cook it with the globe eggplant. When I lived somewhere with more restaurant options, eggplant was one of my go-to orders. The flavor and texture is so great. But now I live somewhere with more limited restaurants and more limited produce and I've missed it so much. I tried to figure out how to make it on my own with ... pretty terrible results. Definitely going to try this.

Western eggplant tends to be rubbery texture even when its been cooked. The Chinese eggplant is a winner in my kitchen & it melts when bit into it.

@wendyshoowaiching4161 10 месяцев назад

I won't add tomato dice with egg plant. Best dish egg plant (de-skin white, cut french fries long, width 1cm) is good amount of oil stir fried and press till cook soft. Press all oil away and set aside. For Sauce (Gravy): garlic mince, mince pork meat, diced big onion, oyster sauce, light soy sauce, dash of maggi soy sauce, little water (sauce consistency thickness), sugar 1 tsp or 1tbsp (to taste) & shaoxing wine 1-2 tbsp, fish sauce (optional). Darkness of the gravy : sufficient little dash of dark soy sauce. Green onion : Cut Long (1 Nos) After gravy almost ready, add egg plant. Stir fried awhile & serve. Toppings: 1-2 Tbsp fried garlic, parsley and green onion.

任何計劃在外出用餐時煮一些非常美味和昂貴的東西，但你是一名廚師，你可以買昂貴的食物，但在家煮得非常美味，因為中秋需要慶祝，你會買一些花燈讓孩子們玩，這樣他們就知道什麼是中秋節

@MadeWithLau 10 месяцев назад

@bach4603 10 месяцев назад

我說的不是水果月餅，也許你可以做一些魚鯊翅湯魚蠔皇瑤柱肉碎釀瓜脯淮山鮑魚豬展湯那些特色菜讓全家人在中秋節吃到好菜，我相信你有本事做一手好菜，就算是買好東西來煮也比外面吃便宜值得，如果全家人吃得開心，而你又那麼願意做飯的話。全家人偶爾吃一次昂貴的食物仍然值得並且享受，當你所在的中餐館不多並且選擇吃非常美味的專業中餐時
