I love this level 3 chef, she's amazing at explaining her process and the way she is so comfortable and confident in her actions makes it fun to watch her cook.
We make all kind of flat breads, We she said not to boil potatoes I was laughing as hell. But She chosen good dish for American Audience. Parantha( Stuffed Flat flatbread Generally Whole Wheat)
Yh im lebanese so it's nice but the way she pronounced it tho😂 "Lak majoun" idk how u guys pronounce it but here it's lahm baajin (لحمة بعجين) for those who don't know lahm is meat and aajin is dough and the way she did it was a bit different but that's okay
Yoohoo same buddy! Except for I'm Syrian. I'm glad she mentioned the Levant as I personally believe it's quite different and unique to the typical "middle eaatern" rep.

To all of y'all here who think indian flatbreads are all about naan then let me enlighten you that naan is only eaten as a delicate bread, rarely in our homes. We make our own flatbread from scratch every single day and it's called roti or chappati. All of us indian women know know to cook our rotis. Next is naan belongs only to Punjab which us a small province in India though it's food has made itself known around the world for it's rich taste and availability.
Have been LOVING all the diversity to the dishes, lately. Instead of just elevating American style cooking with more expensive ingredients, we're finally acknowledging other cultural cooking practices and showing how much more depth and flavor can be imparted by incorporating other spices and techniques. My heart is so happy!
We come to the point where - The level 1 makes her own dough. - The level 2 makes the most complicated dish. - And the level 3 dish is actually reasonable.
What I like about this channel is how it helps me to apply scientific theories I've learnt in college into my cooking even though I am not a major in culinary.
Make it I SWEARRR i eat this everyday and i LOVE IT i am guessing u have everything already just not the wheat flor and its super cheap go make it gurll
I’m from the Middle East and as far as I’m concerned, traditionally speaking the dough used for Lahm B’aajin (level 3) is made without any dairy, just water, wheat flour, yeast, sugar, and optionally oil. I now get why Italians get frustrated over recipes that are replicated inaccurately.
Rinku's accent is so beautiful!!!! so calming, i hate beats and onions but just the way she explains them its like sureeeeee lets try it why not, keep talking
This is an unnecessary Indian approval that yup , what 2nd level chef made was really a parantha that we eat 😛 but her accent is like a typical aunty 😂 But she is really cuteee!!!
No two chefs are alike, even in the Middle East. There is no one standard. Every country is different, every town is different, and even neighbors cook differently.
Emily is like that one aunt who knows exactly what you want for Christmas and birthdays, and gets them for you. Somehow, that one aunt manages to convince your parents to let you keep it.
@@namankataria4142 I think she is POI- person of Indian origin, not necessarily born in India regardless of whether they have kept citizenship, like Non-resident Indians. The terms have become confusing though so I probably need to see what the consensus is online. Probably should've done that before I answered lol.
Parathas are so good, but they're not exactly what we normally think of as "flatbread" in America. It would've be cool to have a 4 levels episode specifically focusing on parathas! Actually the same thing could be said for the dish that the level 3 chef made in this video as well. These all look really good though!
Us: Hey, Emily what temp should we bake this at? Emily: Hot Us: Hey, Emily how long should we bake this? Emily: Until it's done. Also Emily: I think I should be a Level 2 chef now.
Okay 1 minute in the video and gotta give the professional chef credit for crediting us Levantines and I can already tell her Lahmajoun is legitimately authentic by the looks of it and how crispy the sides are. Y'all need to try this goodness. Been craving it for a year and a half. Wanted to make it for last year's NYE but couldn't afford buying meat (thank you Syrian civil war). But this year I've started working this past month excessively in order to save up some cash and get myself some good one kilo of meat. I'll be eating lahmajoun this NYE y'all! Try it, you'll love it!
okay video's done and i confirm, her recipe is legit. so was her plating. generously sprinkling chopped parsley and a squeeze of lemon, is the way to go. only needed a drizzle of pomegranate molasses with the lamb spice mix, but otherwise it's perfection. i'll be making this. and chef Ayesha is such a professional strict-looking yet kind person. I'd like her be my instructor, I feel like I can trust her with my life.
Aisha sounds like a lot of people I grew up with around NJ/ NY boroughs/ Long Island/ parts of Westchester. I love her confident movements and speech and I wish I had more levantine food like this around me, because i have wanted to try it forever. Love Emily's humor, sass, relatability and seeing how she has improved. I like the look of that pizza bianca And of course Auntie Rinku representing with those tasty paratha. I rarely got paratha my house because we have to watch our fat intake, so it was mostly chapati for us.
lahmacun is also very popular in turkey, I love how this level three is just perfecting classical recipes from the middle east instead of adding truffles and caviar to everything...
As someone who's from the Middle East, I can easily say that level 3 chef absolutely nailed it. The only problem is just how the dish's name was butchered.
The original name for the dish is pronounced with a letter that most western people cannot pronounce. I can't even describe how it sounds, you can look it up on Google: ح / حرف الحاء So when the recipe's passed on, its naming changes according to the chef's mother tongue. For example, based on personal notice, Russians pronounce it "Kh". Americans go for "H". Most Asians would go for "K". Only the Chinese managed to get it right from the very beginning. So basically, level 3 chef is not entirely wrong.
My mother's potato parathas are my favourite dish. She makes them by mixing the potato preparation with the dough and the parathas turn out so soft and tasty
My grandmother was literally facepalming over the lahmacun you should've seen her face when she garnished it she literally was screaming where's the bowl of Laban!
The Flatbread recipe created by Ayesha is very delectable and mouthwatering. The top layer is seasoned with spicy seasoning and done just right and with the lamb meat juicy which makes for a heavenly delight and it goes well with a cold drink. Thank you for sharing that lovely food recipe.
Yea this is my dream team for the 4 levels, Rose is MVP, Emily is always my favorite, but these two new girls I love them. Rinku looks at the camera a bit to much but her skill and knowledge are impressive. Absolutely love her and want to see more of her. Ayesha was super impressive in her last video and didn't disappoint in this one. One thing I expect from my level 3's is for them to show us skills and knowledge but also explain the what's, how's, & why's. Don't just give me an impressive dish, explain what goes into the process. We get this from Ayesha and that is exciting. And I have to show Rose all my love because she is always there consistently bringing these videos to life.
Emily has gone from making cinamon rolls with Pizza dough to making here own dough from scratch. That's progress.
very true
Nice i like ❤️❤️❤️

That's wife material
The level 2 chef is sooo adorable and the bread she made is DELICIOUS
She makes my heart so happy ugh
She should be a level three sweetheart
We make all kind of flat breads, We she said not to boil potatoes I was laughing as hell. But She chosen good dish for American Audience. Parantha( Stuffed Flat flatbread Generally Whole Wheat)
i am indian and trusts me
level 2 is perfect
Omg! You got to eat her flatbread?!
As an Iraqi I’m so happy there’s finally a chef that knows middle eastern dishes!!
Same here dude (except i'm turkish XD)
Yh im lebanese so it's nice but the way she pronounced it tho😂 "Lak majoun" idk how u guys pronounce it but here it's lahm baajin (لحمة بعجين) for those who don't know lahm is meat and aajin is dough and the way she did it was a bit different but that's okay
Like here we don't blend the onions and tomatoes we chop them and it gives it a much better texture.
Yoohoo same buddy! Except for I'm Syrian. I'm glad she mentioned the Levant as I personally believe it's quite different and unique to the typical "middle eaatern" rep.

Hahaha
Same

Me: “Write that down! write that down!”
Charles the french
😄
Ayy charles the french fan here
You can tell by the level 2's voice that she's automatically a level 4 when it comes to flatbread.
A level 4 that actually cooks
Why ? Isn't she indian ? Flat bread is arab
@@addictedtofamilyguy7627 I mean it’s basically naan, which is popular in Indian
@@addictedtofamilyguy7627 flat bread is Indian too :)

The home cook lady really reminds me of my aunt, with her mannerisms , appearance and voice!
you must be new to this channel, Emily is one of the most popular chefs.
Plot twist that is ur aunt Undercover
@@belalabusultan5911 pretty sure by "home cook" they mean level 2, not 1
How does your Aunt feel about ketchup?
@@belalabusultan5911 I’m pretty sure they meant the lady who talked like she was falling asleep aka chef 2
“No technique except for not cutting your fingers off”
My favorite line
You forgot Emily's: Cook on hot until cooked 😉
The best
Well thrue
Rinku gives me seasoned professional educator vibes. Which is definitely a compliment.
"im gonna put it in the oven at hot and im gonna leave it until cooked"
😭😭😭😭😭
to be fair, it's more fun that way.
I died when she said that
😂😂👏🏼 Gotta love her
I love naan. Just ate it for the first time a couple of months ago.
I asked my wife how much of that indian flatbread we had left, she shouts back,
*Naan.*
AHH yes very fonny
The door's that way sir....
@@ziggystatdust6008

@Elijah Mathews Henry Nan is a type of Indian flatbread and Naan is basically how they’re pronouncing None

Yes I think I’ll watch this instead of studying for my exams 👍🏽
Study first and reward yourself with this video 👍
Good idea
Procrastination is an art
You are shouting at me!!!!! Me taking my mid exam nap 😭

I'm gonna need that whole plate of parathas and a tub of mango achar.
For real. My food envy is off the charts 📈📈📈
im eating the paratha i dont like yougurt or achar
"So other chefs, watch out!" - Emily, 2020
Someone's ready for lvl 2
No!!!!!
no ketchup girl aint ready yet
She's level 2 now!
Three of my favorite chefs in one episode! Rinku makes the most phenomenal dishes. A great addition to Epicurious.
“Tiny little creatures burping forever until pizza dough gets bigger.” 😂😂😂😂😂 Emily you give me life.
We come to the point where
- The level 1 makes her own dough.
- The level 2 makes the most complicated dish.
- And the level 3 dish is actually reasonable.
How is 2 the most complicated? She didn’t even use yeast
@@paola7045 Lol so I take it yeast dishes are harder than non-yeast dishes?
*Pizza dough*
frying the bread is what you traditionally do in india. idk what you're talking about
The level 2 was made a little more complicated than it needs to be.
@@mukundgupta2959 how so
All three flatbreads look absolutely delicious. Well done, ladies!
Anyone else love when Chef Nurdjaja explains things? She is an amazing instructor! :D
“But did I hurt anyone?” is the new “But did you die though?”
Old school Emily would have taken a pre-made dough straight out of the package ... now that's some remarkable evolution.
why do homework when you could waste your time watching other people make flatbreads that you’re never gonna make yourself
Preach
Dude NO! I’m literally supposed to be doing Botany hw right now
Level 2 chef reminds me of my College Urdu teacher, her accent is sooo sober and sweet
Hainaaa same
What I like about this channel is how it helps me to apply scientific theories I've learnt in college into my cooking even though I am not a major in culinary.
Wow, all three look excellent, and we get food from 3 distinct cuisines. Great episode!
I absolutely love paratha, I need this in my life.
Make it I SWEARRR i eat this everyday and i LOVE IT i am guessing u have everything already just not the wheat flor and its super cheap go make it gurll
I’m from the Middle East and as far as I’m concerned, traditionally speaking the dough used for Lahm B’aajin (level 3) is made without any dairy, just water, wheat flour, yeast, sugar, and optionally oil. I now get why Italians get frustrated over recipes that are replicated inaccurately.
The fact that the recipe was not that accurate is not what bothered me the most, it was how she said it.
I’m in love with the accent of level 2 chef...
I love how every 3 level chef flexes their 3000 year experience in the intro.
I love the Indian one because this flatbread is also cooked in every home of Pakistan as well as India
and in every home across the diaspora. Cheers from the Caribbean.
Rinku's accent is so beautiful!!!! so calming, i hate beats and onions but just the way she explains them its like sureeeeee lets try it why not, keep talking
Emily :"I'm gonna put it in the oven at... HOT and leave it untill cooked"😂
This is an unnecessary Indian approval that yup , what 2nd level chef made was really a parantha that we eat 😛 but her accent is like a typical aunty 😂 But she is really cuteee!!!
She said it was a paratha.
@@mizzdramax0x Same thing
@@bharadwajgoda5578 lol thats what i'm saying. the comment says it is what she said it is
@@mizzdramax0x i was approving it and added that this is "unnecessary" too !
See is the Indian Queen Elizabeth. Period.
Emily is the heart of the show, we have seen the evolution of her cooking, and is amazing.
I'm quite sure Emily can make hard-boiled eggs and make it entertaining.
Lahmajun? GIRL SHE KNOWS HER STUFF I SEE YOU MISS LEVEL 3!!!
Ikrrrr
Rinku is my new favorite human, I loved her in kebabs and I love her here. Her style, her recipes, her voice 💜 reminds me of my friends moms
I can't pinpoint Ayesha's cusine style, it's all over the middle east, the Caucasus region, and south eastern Europe.
No two chefs are alike, even in the Middle East. There is no one standard. Every country is different, every town is different, and even neighbors cook differently.
@Black Guns Matter Can't be wrong if it's delicious
Feels quite Levantine to me
She is half Indonesian and half Italian
This is very common in Armenian cuisine which she mentioned :)
This was such a good episode!! Please bring this level 2 and 3 back ❤
Emily with her presentation! 😮😮😮
Emily is like that one aunt who knows exactly what you want for Christmas and birthdays, and gets them for you. Somehow, that one aunt manages to convince your parents to let you keep it.
That one aunt...
I don't have :(
Finally some Indian representation 🥳
Yes, Palak is NRI, I guess. The who made omelet

Emily needs a podcast, I’d love to listen to her talk about random things and make terrible puns while I’m working
I just love Emilys chill-chaotic energy
2:12
Level 2 Chef : "I'm working with my hands."
Level 3 Chef : *Use mixing machine*
Level 1 Chef : "Laa-Dee-Daa"
How's Emily still a Level 1 chef? She's been preparing recipes fon a while now... It's time to promote her to level 2!
She’s not ready yet
she's a lazy level 2 chef, she can cook on that level, but she just doesn't want to bother herself.
I’m missing my three fav
Emily Lorenzo and Frank 💔
Frank is in the Swiss Alps searching for rare truffles while tending to a herd of young cows and lambs
5:12 "There's no technique here besides not cutting your finger off"
I like her!
emily is not level 1 anymore, wow made her own dough. for the level 2 chefs, Rinku flexes the most and i appreciate that.
My fav part of these is when they all taste their creations and are always so happy and impressed with themselves I love it
Yay they did a bread..... Can Y'all do like loaf or dinner roll?
Would love to see how the 3 categories make them?
Love your comment, but I do believe you levels
emily has soared so far, giving me very storyline progress
EMILY. AND FLAKEY SALT. A GROWTH I'M PROUD TO SEE.
Level 2 sounds like every aunty I've ever encountered who asked me when I'm going to get married xD living for the south asian representation though
Every indian when they saw parantha in the thumbnail---✨" interesting "✨
Yup
Emily is a legend . From buying store bought dough to making it with her own hands
Parathas are so good, but they're not exactly what we normally think of as "flatbread" in America. It would've be cool to have a 4 levels episode specifically focusing on parathas!

"I'm going to put it in the oven at hot,

Okay 1 minute in the video and gotta give the professional chef credit for crediting us Levantines and I can already tell her Lahmajoun is legitimately authentic by the looks of it and how crispy the sides are. Y'all need to try this goodness. Been craving it for a year and a half. Wanted to make it for last year's NYE but couldn't afford buying meat (thank you Syrian civil war).

Try it, you'll love it!
okay video's done and i confirm, her recipe is legit. so was her plating. generously sprinkling chopped parsley and a squeeze of lemon, is the way to go. only needed a drizzle of pomegranate molasses with the lamb spice mix, but otherwise it's perfection. i'll be making this. and chef Ayesha is such a professional strict-looking yet kind person. I'd like her be my instructor, I feel like I can trust her with my life.
i don’t even like aloo paratha but the one rinku made looks so delicious
something about chef level 2's voice makes me want to sleep in peace. Her voice sounds so soothing and relaxing; so pure

Aisha sounds like a lot of people I grew up with around NJ/ NY boroughs/ Long Island/ parts of Westchester. I love her confident movements and speech and I wish I had more levantine food like this around me, because i have wanted to try it forever.
Love Emily's humor, sass, relatability and seeing how she has improved. I like the look of that pizza bianca
And of course Auntie Rinku representing with those tasty paratha. I rarely got paratha my house because we have to watch our fat intake, so it was mostly chapati for us.
I thought Emily was a level 2 chef, she's definitely earned enough XP
she earned the xp, but does not want to press the (Evolve) button because it's a bother :P
lahmacun is also very popular in turkey, I love how this level three is just perfecting classical recipes from the middle east instead of adding truffles and caviar to everything...
The level two chef feels like my kindergarten teacher
I cannot wait to try Rinku's flat bread recipe. It sounds so yummy!
It’s nice that in each episode, we get some different level 3 chefs.
I love seeing how flatbread is made across different cultures
As someone who's from the Middle East, I can easily say that level 3 chef absolutely nailed it. The only problem is just how the dish's name was butchered.

We don’t mind! Any lahmejun is better than no lahmejun. Lahmejun represent!
Definitely one level 1 chef and two level 3 chefs! Love them all x
It's kinda amusing how level three chef is pronouncing "lakhmajun" differently each time
The original name for the dish is pronounced with a letter that most western people cannot pronounce. I can't even describe how it sounds, you can look it up on Google: ح / حرف الحاء
So when the recipe's passed on, its naming changes according to the chef's mother tongue. For example, based on personal notice, Russians pronounce it "Kh". Americans go for "H".
