We cooked this dish today following the recipe from our recently aquired book. This is my wife's favourite dish to order from the take away. The problem we have now is she says she never wants the take away again and wants me to cook this instead, so thanks for that Chin and Choo. Lol. Joking aside though this blew my socks off, I can only begin to imagine what your high end cooking is like if this is you in fast food mode. Peace.

can you please do sweet and sour chicken in the breadcrumbs i always had this as a little girl but later on alot of chinese takeaways stoped doing this and just had the sweet and sour chicken in balls/ batter i think it was never the same for me. sweet and sour chicken and egg fried rice and chicken chow main please! no 6, 17, 32, Thanks
Made this for the 2nd time this evening. Used a packet of Eastmans pre-cooked chicken from Tesco, and a pouch of Tilda Jasmine rice, which makes it possible on a busy evening (though I did deep fry my raw cashews). Came out absolutely superb again....I love your cookbook, everything always turns out incredibly good. Love you guys 😊
Made this yesterday..... But I ran out of MSG 😧. It wasn't quite the same but still amazing. Only change I made was I added yellow peppers for another bit of sweetness. As always thank you Chin and Choo. Legends. 👌
This is totally different to the c&p I grew up with, that just had chicken, pineapple, onions and I guess light and dark soy, maybe it's a regional thing. I am totally down for throwing bamboo shoots in anything though as I love them, cashews and water chestnuts not so much. Great video, thanks! :)
Just cooked the chicken, pineapple & cashew nuts. Fanbloodytastic is all I can say. Substituted the water chestnuts for green pepper as I don’t like them. I now have a very happy wife and teenage daughter - thank you x
I added crispy aromatic duck instead of chicken, it tasted like my wife’s favourite dish from our Chinese restaurant of choice which closed a few years ago. I took her there on our first date 12 years ago. I am well in her good books now!
This looks really delicious! Thank you for sharing these wonderful recipes...I;ve been binge watching your channel since it popped up in my feed a few days ago and have just ordered some of the ingredients you recommend from an Asian supermarket here, can;t wait to try and cook some for myself! Please please please if you know how to make it, can you do a video for the type of gravy you get with chips in Chinese takeaways in the North of Scotland...the gravy is really thick, dark and smokey and tastes a little like BBQ. I used to love chips and gravy from the local takeaway when I was growing up but have never been able to get it since moving further and further away! It would be amazing to taste it again. (Have even tried to make it but haven;t managed to replicate it!)
I think you are both amazing. Chin you are such a good teacher. Love you and your adorable mum. I can't wait to receive my ingredients and book. I wish you every Luck in the world. My favourite channel. Brilliant. Stay safe. You are national treasures😍♥️♥️♥️
I think I think you'll find that Amazon probably include every new book with a UK ISBN automatically in their listings. Otherwise, how would 3rd party sellers select a product if they had a new or second hand copy to sell via Amazon?
@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop Yep, it's a thing. (^_^) But it's also about their business model of having 3rd party sellers. They can't know which books will sell only by this or that channel... only that the platform sells books from other sellers (from which they take a commission, of course.)
Another amazing video. POssible silly question Would chicken bamboo shoots with water chestnut dish have the exact same ingredients just less the pineapple? Seen some people adding oyster sauce.
Oh I'm sure I user to eat chicken and pineapple years ago.. might try this but leave out the bamboo shoots and water chestnuts as I'm not a lover of those. What could you sub it for? Also does it matter if I don't have msg? Have everything else
I've never seen this on a takeaway menu. But my favourite dishes are Ma La Beef or Beef and Cashew nuts in hot pepper sauce, also Baked chicken in Portuguese sauce.
I have to say this is easily one of the best channels on TH-cam for me even though the son got pissed off at me for saying he talked too much on the first video I saw this lol I didn't realise that lots of people had said the same thing, he was also pissed that I didn't remember his name lol I do that with everyone I'm not great at that... I will buy the book and some of the stuff they suggested Greatly appreciate the vids tho 😁 Now we know the Chinese secrets to their great food😁
Hiya i recently ordered some noodles of your site I wanted to order the full box of noodles but your out of stock. Also numerous other items but your out of stock so just asking when at an estimate will all these items be back in stock. I couldn’t find a contact section on your web site so I’m trying through TH-cam sweetie xx
Can you show us how to do chicken with cashew please? Love watching you and cooking along. The salt and pepper chicken and Singapore chow win have become a family favourite
I've been waiting for this since I discovered your channel! I've never had chicken and pineapple with bamboo shoots and water chestnuts in it though, it's usually a couple of manky bits of carrot if anything. This looks way better. 😄
I have some leftover roast chicken from the weekend which needs using up so I think this one ticks all the boxes for me. I know the texture won't be the same but hey ho. I know what you mean about the tinned water chestnut being a powdery crunch. I am thinking of trying red radish as an alternative. Any thoughts on that? I do like to experiment especially if I don't have all the exact ingredients. 😋 Where have I heard "1/3rd of a teaspoon" before? 😂
As promised I made this dish today using radish instead of water chestnuts and I can report that radish works really well in this dish, quite possibly better than the tinned water chestnuts. I started following the book version and, (you probably know this already), the 200ml of water is missing from the ingredients list but water is mentioned in the method. Great dish and one I ave never had before but will again. 😋
Hiya both of you. Thank you for these recipes and video's, they are helping me immensely with my Chinese cooking. I know you cook yours on your kitchen cooker, mine is a gas cooker but not the best (😂 more of a candle than a cooker 😂 ). I have been trying to get hold of a high pressure wok cooker here in the UK, (I'm Manchester) and I have seen these on eBay (Cast Iron Propane Wok Burner LP Stove 100,000 BTU or similar) but the ones that I have seen on eBay are in America and Australia for around £119.00 but then £100.00 postage to UK. Do you know where I can get a good high pressure wok cooker from in the UK for around the same price? (I'll be using it outside by the way, not indoors). Any help or links would be very much appreciated. Keep the vids coming. 👍 👍 👍 Thank you very much. Colin.
I've never used on of those before, but induction cookers are very good, in fact we use them in our restaurants. I'll look into the burner and may be review it :)
Hi guys love you channels and choo is so funny and we love her. Will the #MSGMASSIVE T-shirt be on sale as I would love one. Keep up the fantastic work you do Dave
Just watched and I'm thinking of giving it a go, (but there had to be a BUT) in this crazy times, myself and my partner are in self isolation and have been for 7 long, long weeks already where can I get the rice wine? I looked on your web site but couldn't see it there. As my partner has COPD we got a fortnightly food delivery slot from our Asda, so I'll need to take a look on their site though I'm not holding my breath, as they have been out of stock of what I call every day food items, which you only find out after you add said item to your basket, very annoying, they haven't had something I class as an every day snack food item in store for 6 weeks, and that's 6 bag pack of Walkers crisp no Ready Salted, no Roast Chicken, no Smoky Bacon, no Salt and Vinegar and no Cheese and onion, so what ar the chances of Rice Wine?? Also if I haven't got potato starch can you use white corn flour in place of it? Anyway another great video, has left me wanting to eat that chicken and pineapple, unfortunately that's not going to happen.☹☹ any advice you have on where to order on line Chinese ingredients that's if you don't have them would be much appreciated. Take care both and stay safe
Wow that looks epic and I have never had it so that's the next on my list 👍👍👍👍 thanks for the inspiration as always guys 😊 I will definitely be happy eating for sure lol Stay safe #msgmassive debbie ❤❤😊👍🍗🍍🍽 yum yum in my tum lol 😁
Ziang's Food Workshop fab that sauce is my favourite.... currently making egg fried rice, noodles & chicken balls as we speak!!! Your recipes are amazing!!!!
Every had cheese and pineapple on a cocktail stick and loved the fuck out of it??? Lawyered. But then I bet you’re the one person who doesn’t like it so I just made myself look stupid 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I'm not, i figured its easier to make it
@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop fair enough mate, keep the good work :-)
A lot of the stuff you recommend isn't available anymore ie Jamie Oliver wok and other woks in the description box, can you update them please
can you please do sweet and sour chicken in the breadcrumbs i always had this as a little girl but later on alot of chinese takeaways stoped doing this and just had the sweet and sour chicken in balls/ batter i think it was never the same for me.

Better than any take away can do in my area for sure.
Much appreciated.

I use the precooked chicken breast slices in my curries and stir fries, can’t go wrong really.

I`m definitely trying this next week. My son pre ordered the second print of the book due soon for a gift -I

fully regional, like most things on a chinese menu :)

Yes if you go to our webstore you can find the ingredients we recommend, use it as a guide www.chinandchoo.com
Looks great! Haven't had this for quite a few years will have to give it a try.
Hope you enjoy

I think I think you'll find that Amazon probably include every new book with a UK ISBN automatically in their listings. Otherwise, how would 3rd party sellers select a product if they had a new or second hand copy to sell via Amazon?
we sell direct, no 3rd party sellers and didn't know that second hand book sells was a thing
@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop Yep, it's a thing. (^_^)
But it's also about their business model of having 3rd party sellers. They can't know which books will sell only by this or that channel... only that the platform sells books from other sellers (from which they take a commission, of course.)
Makes complete sense :) thank younfor letting me know :)
Another amazing video. POssible silly question Would chicken bamboo shoots with water chestnut dish have the exact same ingredients just less the pineapple? Seen some people adding oyster sauce.
Yes, absolutely, I don't know many places that will add oyster sauce to it, but i'm sure some will
Tryed it for dinner very nice going to do again soon
Brilliant :)
Awesome video again guys, I love anything with cashew nuts in! 🖤 Keep cooking and stay safe.
Thank you! Will do and stay safe too!
Is Cornstarch an acceptable replacement for Potatostartch, as I dont have any and cant wait to cook this right now :)
yes but will cook out where a potato wont :)
Oh I'm sure I user to eat chicken and pineapple years ago.. might try this but leave out the bamboo shoots and water chestnuts as I'm not a lover of those. What could you sub it for? Also does it matter if I don't have msg? Have everything else
yes msg is a must other wise we won't mention it, we sell it on our online store www.chinandchoo.com and i'm not a huge fan of bamboo shoots ether
I've never seen this on a takeaway menu. But my favourite dishes are Ma La Beef or Beef and Cashew nuts in hot pepper sauce, also Baked chicken in Portuguese sauce.
out for curiosity, where are you based?
@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop In Ireland, we may have different stuff. We do get Thai and even Malaysian dishes in the Chinese here.
@@neet1002 Yeah thought you weren't in England, we don't get anything like that
neet 100 I’m in Northern Ireland and we don't have that on our menu up here either
My favourite food channel. Keep safe guys.

Not lots of people 😂😂😂😂😂 about 20 in 82,000 but I do like to talk
@@ZiangsFoodWorkshop 😂 😂 😂 Need to learn how to count... As well as when to shut up on making videos 🤣🤣
Nah counting and being quite is over rated 😘😘😘
Looking forward to making this, I have heard that you can use dry sherry if you can't get rice wine, any thoughts??
yeah some people do but a brandy and whisky mix is better in our opinion, but what ever really, you don't even really need it
never ordered this from a chinese will defo try this recipe out :)
Please do :)
Nice guys i will give it a go a we friday night meal for me x
awesome :)
yum so have to make this.

So sorry that the Triads injected all that ink into your arms. That must have been awful! Is MSG a necessity or optional?
I love my ink and yes
The tattoos are amazing love them 💕💕
I like your mum she cool

Hey Chin ! Your onions are too loud ! Go back to the market and buy silent onions.
hahahahahaha shit, why didn't I think of that lol
Just subd to Chin and Choo reviews and Chin
Awesome :)
I like pineapple in my chicken curry
Very tried that, going to give it a go
Maybe putting a drawing of a bat on a Chinese cookbook is not a great idea LOL.
