    This is the video that all Chinese kids watching their parents cook needed. Explaining rather than being told “just watch and learn / this is just how it’s done”.

      this guy literally explains everything in english that chinese people cant explain lol its really hard to explain these methods from chinese to english .why you need 2nd or 3rd generation like Sin. hes truly a great ambassador for hong kong food and cooking. cantonese cooking is dying out in america/canada. it cant keep up anymore cause due to the hard labour behind it and the long long hours. inflation also destorying the true art of cantonese cooking. just like how some dont respect italian cooking. chinese and italian food were the most dominate in late 80s 90s

    if you want to use baking soda, DO NOT sprinkle as the powder may concentrate on some area making the taste quite strong.. dissolve the powder in water so it will spread evenly.....
    only put oil in on the last step of the marinate as oil locks up the meat to prevent anything going in and out.... so if oil goes in from start, the meat will not absorb all the marinate flavours and reaction from baking soda etc.....

      Shanghai style (the “spicy soy sauce”) is quite different from western style. As a Chinese-American who grew up on the former, experiencing the latter (and learning it’s what most people here mean) was an interesting experience. The Shanghai style can be used straight as a dipping sauce, it’s wonderful with fried foods like spring rolls, and also with pork or veggie steamed buns.

    Hi Lucas,
    This recipe just tickkles my taste buds! I will definitely try to reproduce it very soon.
    During the video you mention that French people call the grilled bits at the bottom of the pan as "fond"! This is incorrect, it's called "suc"!
    A "fond" in French cuisine, is a reduction of veg/meat/bones with liquid. Similar to a stock.
    Nonetheless, whatever the language, the result is in the taste! I'm sure I'll be licking my fingers clean after eating this dish....
    Look forward to seeing more of your recipes
