I KNOW RIGHT ? !!! I MEAN I WATCHED A LOT OF VIDEOS ON HOW TO MAKE AN ASIAN NOODLES BUT I DIDN'T REALLY UNDERSTAND THEM ALL , BUT THIS ONE IS MORE EASY AND DELICIOUS!
You can see his passion for food. Definitely with Chinese cooking, less is more. Jamie Orrible would be throwing all sorts into this chow mein, but it isn't needed.
What I love about Ken Hom's video is that he doesn't talk down to you, he isn't all flash, he's laid back, he takes his time to explain what he's doing at each stage. I have just ordered a wok and a selection of food items to give his recipes a try.
One of the best teacher in Chinese cooking . He demonstrated priceless lesson here . I used to go to Chinese cooking and all this was demonstrated at a very expensive lesson . Thanks Ken .
We couldn't agree more! So lovely to hear that you have been inspired by Ken Hom for such a long time - and we are also super jealous of your fried rice!
HOLY BALLS. I'm fourteen and I never cook, neither do I know how to. This is the first meal I have ever made and I'm gone crazy for it. My brother finished the whole thing, oh my goddness. So basically, I used carrots, capsicum, and red peppers, garlic and then i added some garlic and onion paste. After frying the veggies etc, i added the noodles, and did as told. I added soy sauce, and lemon, pepper, salt. Ot was wonderful oh my god.
I always like to watch Ken Hom videos because he has a very pleasing presentational style. There's a gentleness to his manner that's always a welcome contrast to the more egotistical, diva-type chefs.
This is a beautiful example how one single humble-toned decent man can show peace and good food to all of us: people of so different countries and religions. Respect from Hungary
This man is simply a MASTER & great teacher to boot. Also, the TV chef Simply Ming taught me the bell pepper cutting trick on 1 of his shows some years ago.
Wow, one of the best cooking videos Ive ever seen! Easy to understand, easy to follow, very detailed. He also goes above and beyond and shows you the intricacies of how to hold the cleaver; and other minute details
I love watching this guy cook . I first found Ken , some 20 odd years ago on Sky's QVC shopping channel . I couldn't believe how quick he could put a chinese meal together , in such a short space of time . He gives clear , concise instructions , with as other posters have already mentioned , the reasons behind these choices , and all in a really polite and humble kinda way . Even here he showed how to hold and use a cleaver . A very pleasant guy to watch .
I LOVE that I came across this video!!! I lived in China for a few months and there are dishes like this that I crave often (I am from the US). Thank you for the detail in explaining each ingredient and the clarity and quality you bring you your videos.
This was well-explained and precise. Reasons were given to every action. He's easy to listen to. A very informative video. I'm genuinely glad I watched this.
What a really lovely chap! Great tips here. Chow Mein can be so varied. My own tip is stick to veggies you like, I add shitake mushrooms instead of the peppers. Pre-cook meat and add if you don't want vegatatian. Great vid, thank you Ken
I loved his video and the way he explains each step as well as the reason for everything. He seems like a very kind and calm person, seeing his makes me want to cook.
I'm sure if he was actually serving this dish to others, he wouldn't have used the same chopstick. He probably shared it with his family, who drink/eat after each other all the time. Looked yummy! Love your videos, very informative
I did subscribe to your channel because I think you are doing an excellent job teaching us how to cook and you're giving reasons why we are doing the certain techniques that you are showing us. Very nice!! Thank you
So glad that you are enjoying the videos and learning how to master the cooking techniques 😊 do let us know which other recipes you enjoyed trying out at home!
I loved your video sir. I am culinary student too. I learnt a lot from you. The instructions are beautifully explained. Thank you for sharing this video with us.
for example, it is the only video I've seen that explains the difference between light and dark soy sauce, how to know if a wok is hot enough, why not to fine chop garlic in a stir fry, what is the logic behind the order of adding ingredients. Other recipes tell you to DO these things but do not tell you WHY
+littlecicero We are so glad that you like the video. We certainly believe that it is important to explain ingredients to people, especially if they are from other cuisines. Are you a big fan of Chinese dishes? :)
+Tescofoodandwine Thank you for your very kind reply. Before I lived in China, I always thought I had no sense of taste. But the culinary standard there is so extreme, that it was a revelation. Since then I have wanted to learn the basics but the youtube videos for Chinese cuisine are not as good as the ones for other cuisines, in my experience- except for this one, which is awesome :) I look forward to seeing the rest of the tesco ken him videos. Thank you very much for sharing these !!!!
+littlecicero That's very interesting! Yes, it is sadly quite hard to get stuck into cooking authentic recipes without covering a bit of the basics. We are so happy we can help you along on your Chinese culinary discovery, do keep us posted on how you get on :)
+Tescofoodandwine thank you very much indeed, I will keep you updated. I saw his tesco wok basics episode and that was excellent too. Have a wonderful day ! :)
I couldnt stop myself to hit like n sucribe n bell button first when i heard his voice itself .... I m Indian staying in china .. This dish I love love love love it... Thanks for receipe.
You are a very good cook and you explain everything with detail I'm gonna make this tomorrow hope i do it right just need sesame oil couldn't find it at the market I went but I'll try another
I have to thank you for all the great cooking hints and tools to use...I tried them and loved how easy it was to cook. Thank you so much have learned quite a bit from you..Pier D senior lady who loves cooking
Your veggie Chow Mein sounds absolutely perfect. Lately, I find vegetarian versions of Chinese favorites more palatable for me. I am going to give this a try...thank you!
I liked your calm manner cooking very relaxing I am trying to serve my family more vegetables this is something they will like thanks looking forward to watching more of your video,
I could watch this man cook all day. He's so peaceful.
We think so... A legend in the kitchen!
Ervin Fowlkes, yes, true.. I agree.. What a calm man.. 🙂
Yes it is 😊
The Bob Ross of cooking lel
Probably because he's a Buddhist.
What a nice man. Gentle humble tone. Unusual with chefs. Polite and pleasant.
reza michael especially with gordon ramsay 😂😂😂
He probably knows kung fu
it's the lack of tattoos that keeps him real
@Nawroz Muhammad he won't that's his whole bs shtick. ramsay ruined food tv. all yelling and bs. he's a wanker.
Not true. A lot of professionals can put on a very good front. Behind the scenes they show their true colours.
best chinese cooking video on youtube, why? because it is the only one that gives the REASONS behind each instruction
exactly.....
👍

I KNOW RIGHT ? !!! I MEAN I WATCHED A LOT OF VIDEOS ON HOW TO MAKE AN ASIAN NOODLES BUT I DIDN'T REALLY UNDERSTAND THEM ALL , BUT THIS ONE IS MORE EASY AND DELICIOUS!
littlecicero I completely agree. He's a wonderful cooking instructor.
Ken is a sweet man. Can anyone feel his energy just by watching the video?
No.
Jack T. Ripper lol
Yes, he seems like a sweet man but I wish the video had focused more on his _hands_, so that we could see everything he was doing :)
You can see his passion for food. Definitely with Chinese cooking, less is more. Jamie Orrible would be throwing all sorts into this chow mein, but it isn't needed.
he used kaioken
What I love about Ken Hom's video is that he doesn't talk down to you, he isn't all flash, he's laid back, he takes his time to explain what he's doing at each stage. I have just ordered a wok and a selection of food items to give his recipes a try.
One of the best teacher in Chinese cooking . He demonstrated priceless lesson here . I used to go to Chinese cooking and all this was demonstrated at a very expensive lesson . Thanks Ken .
Agree with others that his voice can be heard all day long. Imagine he is your cooking instructor for a day or a week, that's a blessing.
This got to be the best Chinese cooking video on youtube, he sounds like a real gentleman, no wonder he's a celebrity chef
I had the pleasure of having drinks with Ken Hom a few years ago and he is such an interesting man! Absolute genius & genuine. Love this man.
how lucky you are!🤩
Best Chinese food channel on youtube! I am Chinese and I can say everything Ken does is authentically Chinese!
I've used Ken Hom's fried rice recipe in my kitchen for 25 years and have never had better in any Chinese restaurant. Chef Hom is the master!
We couldn't agree more! So lovely to hear that you have been inspired by Ken Hom for such a long time - and we are also super jealous of your fried rice!
This looks like a great recipe, all I need to do for me is add some diced chicken breast and it will be perfect. :D
Can I know the recipe please??
@@tesco Link please??
@@bhuwangotame1502 Yes!! Link?
His calmness makes me calm and that is the very reason why I watch this from time to time.
I liked how lowkey nervous he was, makes him more relatable
I remember watching Ken when I was younger and thinking he was the coolest. Watching this confirmed he still is!
oabuseer of play
Yes he is,
Ken is King . Makes everything so clear . Explaining everything.
HOLY BALLS. I'm fourteen and I never cook, neither do I know how to. This is the first meal I have ever made and I'm gone crazy for it. My brother finished the whole thing, oh my goddness.

Those sound like excellent additions to Ken's recipe - we are glad you enjoyed! 😊

Ken HOm sir you really are the master. Making it look so easy has always been your way. thank you.
SANJAY AHLAWAT pasr
This man is simply a MASTER & great teacher to boot. Also, the TV chef Simply Ming taught me the bell pepper cutting trick on 1 of his shows some years ago.
A very important thing: to explain the "why and how". And Mr. Hom ist one of the best, doing that. Thank you so much, Ken!
thank you so much ken for the simplicity of how you explain how to make this dish
Wow, one of the best cooking videos Ive ever seen! Easy to understand, easy to follow, very detailed. He also goes above and beyond and shows you the intricacies of how to hold the cleaver; and other minute details
Very thorough with instructions. An excellent video. I will definitely try this dish! Thank you Sir!
So glad you like the video and hope you enjoy trying out the recipe for yourself! 😊

This man really calms my soul. His gentle and patient way to explain things is amazing. I wish I could be more like that especially with my kids.
Love this man could watch him all day
The chef is so humble and makes the food with so much love. Highly appreciated. May Almighty Allah bless him.
Nobody needs a blessing from allah the butcher.
Tried this today. Give this recipe 5/5 for how easy and well illustrated it is. Ken Hom is such a good teacher!
A humble man with great voice, an excellent chef and a very simple technique of cooking. Good to watch. Joy ho!
him: "you don't want to use olive oil for this"
me: "oops"
🤣😂
Dude.. I just did the same thing and I was like "Wait... What??" Lol
Yes my favourite chef well done ken. Always lovely to observe him at his art.
the method of slicing red pepper is brilliant

you can add any ingredient you like, even egg
The nicest chef, clear and makes you want to run into the kitchen and get on it
Ken is cool, got a Ken Hom wok as a housewarming present 21 years ago and still using it with his recipes to this day.
I love how he takes his time to explain everything to you
This looks absolutely divine. I shall make this as Christmas dinner for my family.
Ken Hom has a very pleasant style. Keep it up!
+Stefan S We hope you enjoy your festive chow mein feast!
Pennywise
It's not really a Christmas dinner. More like soul food
