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.
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.
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.
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 .
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
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!🤩
His calmness makes me calm and that is the very reason why I watch this from time to time.
Ken is King . Makes everything so clear . Explaining everything.
Best Chinese food channel on youtube! I am Chinese and I can say everything Ken does is authentically Chinese!
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
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
I like how the instructor is talking.. clear.. precise... and it looks so good
A humble man with great voice, an excellent chef and a very simple technique of cooking. Good to watch. Joy ho!
thank you so much ken for the simplicity of how you explain how to make this dish
I can listen to his voice all day. So peaceful
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.
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.
Ken HOm sir you really are the master. Making it look so easy has always been your way. thank you.

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.
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.
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.
Those sound like excellent additions to Ken's recipe - we are glad you enjoyed! 😊
Tried this today. Give this recipe 5/5 for how easy and well illustrated it is. Ken Hom is such a good teacher!
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?
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! 😊

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,
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.
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 .
Yes my favourite chef well done ken. Always lovely to observe him at his art.
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.
Great to hear, William!
Glad you enjoyed! - Andy 😀
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!
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.
The nicest chef, clear and makes you want to run into the kitchen and get on it
Love this man could watch him all day
I loved his explanation of the recipe. Very nice gentleman.
Thanks Ken! Im making this for my wife today. Allah willing.
I feel so much respect for you. Very gentle and docile fellow. Love your cooking.
the method of slicing red pepper is brilliant
This guy is so calm and easy to follow, I'm gonna try 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
Thanks for sharing your tips - they sound delicious! And we are so glad you like the video 😊
you can add any ingredient you like, even egg
What a calm and easy going chef. I make my Chow Mein based on this recipe now. A truly professional chef with a Gentleman like attitude.
I enjoyed every single moment of this clip. Chef you are marvelous ... the style, the concepts and the soft explanations ... Thumbs UP Sir. Love it.
This guy is awesome, he explained this dish so detalyfull. And besides that, he seems like a very nice person.
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
No hi
Beautifully presented by Mr Hom - looks absolutely delicious. If more westerners ate meals like this, we would be slim and healthy.
My 5 year old want to say “hi” to you chef 👨🍳.. after watching you cooking
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 made it tonight...it came out perfect! I'm pretty useless in the kitchen, but this was an easy recipe and it tastes great!
Thanks Wok Man! lol
+thePunctual Pothead We're thrilled you enjoyed both making and eating this. Thanks for the great feedback.

Chef Ken Hom, please keep 'em coming! My favorite chef for Chinese culinary dishes!
I love how he explains everything so well. He is my new favorite cook on TH-cam.
I love how he takes his time to explain everything to you
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
A wonderful instructor and thorough enough for me! Kudos for Mr. Hom!
An Excellent Interpretations of Fried Noodles especially during the lockdown and a few beers after MIdnight :)

I tried this today and it was awesome and delicious 💕 thank you 💕
A joy to watch...A gentleman and a scholar...
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
+Faith Lydia Seriously! '-_-
Faith Lydia c6j9
Very detailed information about cooking proper meals.

What an eloquent speaker..... the way he spoke was food narration...explanation of food poetry...
Thanks Sana! We're glad you enjoyed the video :)
Looks delicious. I would only add some fresh ginger. Thanks for the tip for cutting bell peppers.

Ken Hom is the most authentic dude I've ever seen.

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 love how he cuts the pepper
So good . It is my favourite eat. Thanks
