I an so close to give up after trying 2 recipes from 2 youtubers. This is absolutely a big success. I didnt have corn starch so i used tapioca starch & baker's ammonia. My god i can taste the same taste from malaysia. Eventhough msia's the skin is thin, but to me this is perfect! Thank u
Swedish pro tip! If you ever use baking ammonia in a recipe that requires an oven. Do NOT open the oven and put your head anywhere near it. We make something called "Kubb" which uses this and I did exactly what I am saying not to... and passed out. The hot ammonia fumes is like getting a baseball bat to the face. I would assume this is also true about frying but probably to a lesser extent as it is not trapped.
Thank u Hans Tun for the inf. on Baking Ammonia "faint out" experience. Is this a Healthy Agent for Baking, just to get "that skin CRISPY"!! I have seen Taiwan & HK Food Vendors making very CRISPY 'Yu Tio' using YEAST. Those who are very interested should not be discouraged but I would use Fresh Yeast or Dry Yeast.
@@KYPhua-ui6jj Ammonia in baking is perfectly healthy as long as you follow certain guidelines. It is an end product in the nitrogen cycle and your body has it naturally but yeah, you need to know what you are doing. I didn't and it could have ended in a hospital visit. That can be said for a lot of things though. Also, yeast is very tasty and ammonia isn't. My granny used to make yeast donuts with just plain old sugar and they were better by far than every single cake donut you can buy in donut shops no matter how fanciful the filling and decoration. I can not tell you how often I have ranted away about yeast donuts on various baking threads but I bet yeasted savory donuts would follow the same pattern.
I made it following Pailin’s recipe closely except that I rested the dough for 4hours because I had to run some errands. Turns out so yummy & crunchy. Thanks Pailin💖
Hi Pai, I’m from Egypt and we use ammonium carbonate for making certain dessert biscuits called “ammonia biscuits “:) . They are very crispy yet soft like butter cookies. Thanks for this lovely recipe.
Perfect recipe. Remind me of the one I bought on the street of Thailand. I made it many times and been asked for the recipe over and over. I referred them all to this video.
Before I saw your method with the ammonium carbonate only recently, I have a successful working recipe that uses baking powder and baking soda in the ratio of 3:1, which means 1 1/2 tsp of baking powder to 1/2 tsp baking soda. Mix the powder and soda with flour not with water but thoroughly mix the dry ingredients first. Then the water. You can omit the baking soda but the Pa Tong Go won’t be light and airy with holes. Problem also is baking powder and baking soda will not be crispy if the Pa Tong Go gets cold. Best is to eat immediately out of the frying wok. Your recipe is good, very crispy for a long time, light, airy and hollow. Ammonium carbonate is just very pungent but you can use a face mask if the smell is too overwhelming. Thank you for your recipe.
This kind of doughnuts are heaven. I ate it for the first time when I visited Hong Kong in 1995 for breakfast and was addicted for it. So delicious! Sometimes I get some in our local asian grocery store. I enjoy it the swiss way, like croissants - with home made jam 🤤. I can recommend strawberry jam. Peach is nice too and sour cherry. Lots of love from Switzerland
ปาท่องโก๋ reminds me of morings at the market, when I visited my grandfather. หมูย่าง with sticky rice, then ปาท่องโก๋ dipped in a bowl of condensed milk. It's the fondest of childhood memories. Thank you for the recipe.
Gosh, can only imagine how many failed pieces of fried dough you've eaten to arrive at this perfect recipe, Pai. Thank you so much for making this the best recipe it can be! Now please go drink lots of water! XD
Much respect to my local morning street vendors who cooked pa tong go for the years I lived in Thailand. They did the cutting (pulling-cutting fast) by hand and just plopped it to the hot oil pan like nothing. I liked dunking my patonggo to choco milk from 7-11. Miss it so much. Thanks, K. Pailin!
These are one of my favourite teatime snacks ❤ Fun fact, where I grew up in northern part of Malaysia bordering south of Thailand, we also called these as "patongko", elsewhere in Malaysia they are called "cakoi". I never knew back then the word originated from Thai. Pailin is also right not all vendors could sell the tastiest patongko. I like mine dip in sweet chilli sauce or peanut sauce. Depends on the vendor on what dippings they would give with.
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! Made it this past weekend and the whole family (from age 2-80 loved them!). Bringing a touch of Asian cooking into our homes when we aren't flying to the other side of the world. Grandma loved this as she's been missing Asia.
This may actually be your funniest video to date! I don't remember you being so stern and serious (almost somber, especially when compared to your early videos) and that makes all the quips even funnier. Amazing recipe, by the way!
I love this: to work a recipe to perfection. My fiancéoften smiles at me when I get this enthusiastic about a certain recipe. Like right now I'm working on french fries: which sort of potato is best? What is the best method? It's so satisfying to get better and better results! Plus: once you've gone through such a process, you really master this recipe in all it's shapes and forms. If I ever gonna make this: I'll surely follow your instructions, Pai. Thanks from the far north of Germany!
Ayu Dewanti in most part of Malaysia, we also call this Cakwe (we spell it “Cakoi”). Only in northern part of Malaysia (Kedah, Penang and Perlis) they call it Pa Tong Ko as well.
@@alevusmanzade8543 Cakwe is a loanword from Hokkien 油炸粿 (yiu ca kwe). Not sure the etymological origin of Pa tong ko though Edit: I searched it up, Pa Tong Ko is due to the confusion in Thailand with another Chinese confectionary called 白糖糕 (peh tng ko) or white sugar cakes. Vendors in Thailand used to sell both of these together and over time because this was more popular, people thought this was "pa tong ko" and became naming it as such :')
Thank you so much Pailin for trying so hard to make this and share it. My family love this Cakwe. Yes, in Indonesia, we call it Cakwe. Usually, we eat it as condiment for porridge. Or for afternoon snack, we dip it into light sweet and sour chilli sauce... Thanks Pailin !
I know what you mean about getting a whiff of Ammonia 😫when I was at a Restaurant in Vancouver and ordered these doughnuts, my favorite to have for breakfast dunked in regular tea or with congee; the strong smell reminded me to hair dye, and I was apprehensive about eating it🥺.

I made your recipe today and it came out perfectly ka! I'm so excited to finally found the perfect recipe. I put half of the dough in the freezer and will cook it next weekend. Just trying to see if the dough would still be viable then. Thank you so much for the video. BTW, you can find baker's ammonia in middle eastern markets.
I just want to add an update that I fried the other half of the dough that I put in the freezer last week and it was still perfect! I'm so happy. Now I can make a larger batch of dough and fry them later.
@@nokinaz856 can you suggest me some tips on how to get hollow pockets inside? i partially used thai red lotus flour in my recipe does that what make it bad?
Please please please teach us ซาลาเปา with pork filling or sweets. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 I loooove your cooking videos so much, all the details that you were explaining. I had never ever learned to cook so well like this before. Boat noodle recipe was crazy but it turn out so well. I made it for my mom's birthday to my family and everyone loves it. I also made green curry to my host family, couldn't be more thankful! ❤
Hello, I'm glad I found your RUclips channel. You make your videos really really good. You explain your recipes very well and smile a lot. I've been living in Chumphon (Thailand if anyone doesn't know where Chumphon is) for 3 years now. You're absolutely right, it's not easy to get good Pa Tong Go. For me there is only one stand with good Pa Tong Go. I guess the woman probably makes them according to the original recipe. Crispy and airy on the inside, simply fantastic. I often have a few with Jok in the morning. Baker's ammonia was not a problem. We have a shop here where you can get the product. I want to try to make the Pa Tong Go myself according to your recipe, but I will continue to buy Pa Tong Go from the seller. Since Covid-19 has ruled the world, many Thais have also financial problems. That's why I will continue to buy my Pa Tong Go from her. Take care and have a nice day. Greetings from Chumphon Dieter
@@RegstarRogstar No kidding, you can googleimage it. In Chinese mythology, dead villains (ghost) will be trialed and deep fried in hot oil for punishment. Historically, there was a traitor name 秦桧Qin Hui, he was the minister of South Song dynasty, 桧Hui and ghost (gui) are pronounced similarly in Chinese, thus Southern Chinese called youtiao deep fried ghost (deep fried Hui) to express their anger after South Song dynasty. That is why Northern and Southern Chinese have different names about the same thing, cause they were ruled by different dynasties in history.
By the way try this proper ingredients you only need baking soda and bakers ammonia you buy online it’s pungent but it’s good correct stuff👍 Yu tiao does not require eggs baking powder yeast or milk .. only two ingredients that is baking g soda and bakers ammonia salt sugar .. I succeeded so fluffy do crispy and so tasty like the hawkers market in Singapore they make class Yu tiao does
Hi Pailin! I loooove your videos and your recipes. I have cooked several already and they taste so good. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Greetings from Mexico and keep them coming! I am proof that even in the tiniest town Puerto Vallarta Mexico you can cook Thai food with fresh ingredients!
I have a house in Phrae, and just down the street is a family that sells these in a cart in front of their shop house. I get them hot and head home to make coffee. I see why this is so requested. Thanks for the recipe. I may get energetic enough to make them, but I’m pretty happy just eating them.
@stephen bouchelle I hope you don't mind that I visited your channel and was delighted to see you play the Ukelele. I played with my father when I was a child and he played the guitar. He's gone now but I miss him so much. Have you heard of the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain? They're absolutely brilliant! They take the mickey with such class and dry wit. The skill is beyond anything. Do check them out on their website. I love the one where they played in a small club in New York. They're also playing lock down stuff. Anyway, take care. These are strange times indeed.
Venica Wood Thank you for your visit. As you can see, I am very much an amateur. I keep the YT channel to show/warn potential jamming partners what I can and can’t do. I have subscribed to the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain. They are a delight and, yes, quite dry wit(ted) [That doesn’t sound right.] For very contemporary but virtuosic ukulele, try Overdriver Duo. Specify ukulele in your search as they are a duo that play a variety of instruments. I will look for the NY club date you mention.
Hi Pailin. This item was my childhood favourite! My Mom and I used to be so crazy about it! In Malaysia we call it the Cha Qwey. Its eaten as an evening snack dipped in hot sauce. But I definitely have experimented eating it with condensed milk and Yes, its awesome!!
ขอบคุณมากครับคุณไพลิน! Living on the east coast of the US, it’s impossible to find real Thai ปาท่องโก๋ that I grew up with. Thank you so much for developing this recipe; now I can finally enjoy this at home. I’m so excited to try this recipe! ❤️❤️
I just looked up ammonium carbonate and I didn't know that it was used as smelling salts in the old days to revive people who fainted. You learn something every day.
lolz this is big mistake for century of Thai about 白糖糕 Pa Tong Go and 油炸粿 Ja kuay, it was sold together for very very long time. ref :: 零失败 白糖糕 (Chinese Rice Cake/Bai Tang Gao) ruclips.net/video/F5wycmAumLM/видео.html, Thais thought Pa Tong Go, is Ja Kuay, and Thais-Chinese like as my grand grand grand parent not correct it, let's Thai call " Pa tong Go" till nowadays funny thing is Cantonese, Hokkien, Sing/Malay Chinese came to Thailand then called it Pa tong go as well, even nowadays Thais-Teochew called it Pa tong go as well, ha ha ha I'm Thai BTW
I am living in Thailand at the moment and we have found a couple of vendors that make these and we love love love them. So that is why I went searching on how to make them. Yaaaay thank you for sharing this going to give it a go. I just need to find the Thai name now for the ammonia so I can go get it at the market or where ever they buy it from. Happy days
You are so funny. I like watching you so much ka P’Pai. Thanks to you for speaking for Thai people that it’s so HARD to find crispy Pa Tong Go. And god bless you for the recipe. I wish all the vendors in Thailand use your recipe. There’s not so many time in my life where I found crispy ones. I like to tear them into pieces and soak them in my soy milk until they’re half soft half crispy and use a spoon to eat them. Goddd I missed it so much!!
Whenever I go to Thailand this is my go to breakfast snack/treat every morning. We have tried fixing them but never successful. Apparently we kneaded them. This will be on the table in the morning. Thanks
I love to eat those with savory hot fresh soymilk, with a bit of black vinegar, chili oil, green onions & sesame seeds. I always make these when I make soymilk (in my soymilk maker -- which totally ended up being a great purchase). one of the best breakfasts in the world!!!
Drop them in and ... "woooo hoooo" ! Amen. 5-6 mins. Airy and hollow. Exterior crispy. Finally, rid the excess oil ...and "helloooo!". Dang. So delish ! Thanks K'Pailin!
Pa Tong Go is one of my favorite things in Thailand. My go to stand is right beside where I get my Moo Ping which means I get to double team breakfast.
Yesterday I had those in chinatown in bangkok and I could smell the ammonia and it was veryyy unpleasant, if you're in bangkok I really advise you to go to ama bakery in the morning, in silom, they make incredible soft, stuffed pandan custard buns, it's soo good!
Finally, at last! I´ve been waiting so long for this. They´re also great with chili paste (nam prik pao), which is my favorite dip. I even eat my croissant with that. Thank you so much, Khun Pailin!👍🙏
the key skills of making this fried dough “You Tiao油条”is using the chop stick or any stick to press the the dough in the middle before frying it. It will make the dough fluffier.
This is awesome. I always think this is hard and impossible to try making at home. I will definitely try your recipe when I can get ammonium carbonate. 😊 thank you.
Just saw Mark Wiens video where he is buying these from a street vendor in Bangkok. The vendor had a mention in the Michelin guide. Yours look just as perfect. Haven't tried them yet. They remind me of beignets although they are made with yeast.
Oohh my goodness, you just reminded me something I totally forgot. It's more than 20 years I don't eat them, but I can really remember the smell and the taste of this wonderful street food we used to buy almost everyday. Thank you 💖
Hi, Pai & Adam. I just bought (the minimum size) 1 kg. of Ammonia for 55 baht ($1.6) in Thailand. Just to try this Pa Tong Go recipe. 😆 And wish i would faint or get dizzy constantly from now on. 😂😆
OMG I've been looking for a good recipe for youtiao (the Chinese version) but they are supposed to be much longer, which is hard to make at home, and a lot of recipes call for yeast, which I want to avoid. These smaller Thai ones look so much more convenient in size! In Sweden we can buy ammonium carbonate in every supermarket, because it's used for a special type of sweet biscuits called "dreams" that are super crisp and puffy and will fall apart as soon as you look at them. It's called salt of hartshorn here because... I guess they used to make it from hartshorn back in the day? Anyway, will definitely try your recipe!
Hello Pailin! I really like your honesty here. I hope I can find ammonia and I will definitely try this. I am currently eating patong ko that I bought in the market and decided to check out for your recipe.
in my hometown called Panatnikom, there's an old lady who makes the best pa tong go. she'll start selling around 4-4.30am and will be sold out by 6 or 7am. i miss it so muchhhhh
So true about the difficulty in finding a good "yau char kwai" in Malaysia too, where this is still quite a common snack. Our family's whinge isn't the texture, but the state of the vendor's oil - a frightfully black cauldron of dubious grease almost the colour of ink. It's so full of flour, over-fried bits and overheated oil in there, the colour is so off-putting. My mum would warn us to leave it alone... "Very carcinogenic!", she would admonish us just in case we were tempted. There are some rare vendors that use a small pan and a small quantity of oil, and frequently change the oil, but folks here are impatient for it to be fried in small batches, so it's almost a no-win situation!
@@arthurnogood7450 Usually in our Hokkien dialect we call it "yew char kway", where we say "pastry" (糕) instead of "ghost". Sounds less scary anyway. The pastry word gets used aplenty here, for both sweet and savoury creations. [Side note: as we also have the non-Chinese also making this tasty snack, it's shortened to "cakoi" in Bahasa Malaysia, especially when it's made by Malay vendors. I often have to explain to some non-Chinese vendors why the pastry comes as "twins"... of those treacherous traitors "punished in boiling oil" for eternity!]
I was in Thailand and at the Pa Tong Go stand, there were also round shapes pa thong ko. It tasted different than the X shape stick, more sweet but also delicious. Does anyone know what this is? Great video and thank you for this wonderful recipe!
Thank you so much for sharing your recipe! My mum tried to make them several times.. But it never came out so well. We will definitely try out your recipe :)
This looks yummy, although I don't think I'll be making it myself. Video idea: with so many people taking up sourdough during the pandemic, I would love to see what sort of spin Pailin would put on sourdough. I already have two starters and have made several pan pizzas with amazing crust and a couple of successful boules.
OMG! Looks awesome! Thanks for the recipe, Pailin! This is my all-time favourite breakfast (dipped in Soybean milk) which I dearly miss ever since relocating overseas. Now.. I just need to see if I could get the baking ammonia shipped into JP. 🙄😁
i remember my first time eating this in our garden when the chinese restaurant owner's wife offered us a whole box, so my dad gave them some crisps and sweets from our shop. talk about a deal.
Northern area of Malaysia we call it pa tong go but other areas they called pa tong go = cakoi. Street food that we can get easily in the morning, afternoon and evening. Dip in peanut sauce, condensed milk, curry, pandan kaya, sweet chiili sauce with peanut, congee and etc.
For the first time a recipe using ammonium carbonate so I can add it to my repertoire! The only other thing I use it for is my grandma's easter cookies. Also, these seem like they would please my family very much, I should try them!
This makes me feel homesick. I remember near my sister's school, there was one street vender that made very tasty patonggo, I got them sometimes when drop off my sister to school.
So I guess I figured out my issue. I’ve been making them all throughout quarantine and they just didn’t turn out right. I was watching other videos that use baking powder/soda and yeast and told me to kneed the dough. 🤦🏻♀️ Glad you uploaded this because now I know what the heck I was doing wrong.
OK so everything you explained at the end... that is what I have experienced regarding these doughnuts but I love them that way.. Never had one that was that hollow and crispy.. Not sure if I prefer that. Must try to make them myself I guess..

In Chinese mythology, dead villains (ghost) will be trialed and deep fried in hot oil for punishment.
Historically, there was a traitor name 秦桧Qin Hui, he was the minister of South Song dynasty, 桧Hui and ghost (gui) are pronounced similarly in Chinese, thus Southern Chinese called youtiao deep fried ghost (deep fried Hui) to express their anger after South Song dynasty. That is why Northern and Southern Chinese have different names about the same thing, cause they were ruled by different dynasties in history.
By the way try this proper ingredients you only need baking soda and bakers ammonia you buy online it’s pungent but it’s good correct stuff👍 Yu tiao does not require eggs baking powder yeast or milk .. only two ingredients that is baking g soda and bakers ammonia salt sugar .. I succeeded so fluffy do crispy and so tasty like the hawkers market in Singapore they make class Yu tiao does
Hi Pailin! I loooove your videos and your recipes. I have cooked several already and they taste so good. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Greetings from Mexico and keep them coming! I am proof that even in the tiniest town Puerto Vallarta Mexico you can cook Thai food with fresh ingredients!
How to make a crispy hollow and chewy one is my goal. Thanks for sharing. Much appreciated.
I have a house in Phrae, and just down the street is a family that sells these in a cart in front of their shop house. I get them hot and head home to make coffee. I see why this is so requested. Thanks for the recipe. I may get energetic enough to make them, but I’m pretty happy just eating them.
@stephen bouchelle I hope you don't mind that I visited your channel and was delighted to see you play the Ukelele. I played with my father when I was a child and he played the guitar. He's gone now but I miss him so much. Have you heard of the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain? They're absolutely brilliant! They take the mickey with such class and dry wit. The skill is beyond anything. Do check them out on their website. I love the one where they played in a small club in New York. They're also playing lock down stuff. Anyway, take care. These are strange times indeed.
Venica Wood Thank you for your visit. As you can see, I am very much an amateur. I keep the YT channel to show/warn potential jamming partners what I can and can’t do.
I have subscribed to the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain. They are a delight and, yes, quite dry wit(ted) [That doesn’t sound right.] For very contemporary but virtuosic ukulele, try Overdriver Duo. Specify ukulele in your search as they are a duo that play a variety of instruments.
I will look for the NY club date you mention.
Venica Wood Here is a piece from Overdriver with brilliant ukulele. ruclips.net/video/4TalPkFcQM4/видео.html
you make all the asian comfort food. Thank you Pai
I am falling in love with your channel.Lived in Thailand for 10 years, have enjoyed this snack a lot .
Hi Pailin. This item was my childhood favourite! My Mom and I used to be so crazy about it! In Malaysia we call it the Cha Qwey. Its eaten as an evening snack dipped in hot sauce. But I definitely have experimented eating it with condensed milk and Yes, its awesome!!
That's how we call it in Laos also!😊
ขอบคุณมากครับคุณไพลิน! Living on the east coast of the US, it’s impossible to find real Thai ปาท่องโก๋ that I grew up with. Thank you so much for developing this recipe; now I can finally enjoy this at home. I’m so excited to try this recipe! ❤️❤️
I just looked up ammonium carbonate and I didn't know that it was used as smelling salts in the old days to revive people who fainted. You learn something every day.
Oh so that's what they use in Tv show to wake ppl up. 😂
In Malaysia we call it yau cha kwai.
In Malaysia we dipped it in hot black coffee.
In Hong Kong they dipped in soya milk.
lolz this is big mistake for century of Thai about 白糖糕 Pa Tong Go and 油炸粿 Ja kuay, it was sold together for very very long time.
ref :: 零失败 白糖糕 (Chinese Rice Cake/Bai Tang Gao) ruclips.net/video/F5wycmAumLM/видео.html,
Thais thought Pa Tong Go, is Ja Kuay, and Thais-Chinese like as my grand grand grand parent not correct it, let's Thai call " Pa tong Go" till nowadays
funny thing is Cantonese, Hokkien, Sing/Malay Chinese came to Thailand then called it Pa tong go as well, even nowadays Thais-Teochew called it Pa tong go as well, ha ha ha
I'm Thai BTW
I am living in Thailand at the moment and we have found a couple of vendors that make these and we love love love them. So that is why I went searching on how to make them. Yaaaay thank you for sharing this going to give it a go. I just need to find the Thai name now for the ammonia so I can go get it at the market or where ever they buy it from. Happy days
These are great with coffee (in the early morning, if/when shopping (or visiting) a Thai market, these + sweet Thai coffee = a nice break).
You are so funny. I like watching you so much ka P’Pai. Thanks to you for speaking for Thai people that it’s so HARD to find crispy Pa Tong Go. And god bless you for the recipe. I wish all the vendors in Thailand use your recipe. There’s not so many time in my life where I found crispy ones. I like to tear them into pieces and soak them in my soy milk until they’re half soft half crispy and use a spoon to eat them. Goddd I missed it so much!!
My pleasure!
I used to have this when I was in Bangkok, there is one famous place near pratunam Shopping mall. It was so yummy
Whenever I go to Thailand this is my go to breakfast snack/treat every morning. We have tried fixing them but never successful. Apparently we kneaded them. This will be on the table in the morning. Thanks
She's cooking while reading my mind! Love your video anyway! Will try this recipe sooooon!
Finally! I've been finding a video of making Patongkoh in your channel for a long time. Lucky that you made it now. I can cook them now. ❤️
I love all the different types of doughnuts!! 🍩🥜🍪🥧🥮 I am gonna make one soooon!
I love to eat those with savory hot fresh soymilk, with a bit of black vinegar, chili oil, green onions & sesame seeds. I always make these when I make soymilk (in my soymilk maker -- which totally ended up being a great purchase). one of the best breakfasts in the world!!!
Drop them in and ... "woooo hoooo" ! Amen. 5-6 mins. Airy and hollow. Exterior crispy. Finally, rid the excess oil ...and "helloooo!". Dang. So delish ! Thanks K'Pailin!
I can’t wait to try! Thank you, I was using all the right ingredients but I totally overworked dough.
they don't seem hard to make at all,and they look delicious,i've gotta try😍
Pa Tong Go is one of my favorite things in Thailand. My go to stand is right beside where I get my Moo Ping which means I get to double team breakfast.
Yesterday I had those in chinatown in bangkok and I could smell the ammonia and it was veryyy unpleasant, if you're in bangkok I really advise you to go to ama bakery in the morning, in silom, they make incredible soft, stuffed pandan custard buns, it's soo good!
Wow I didn't realize how hard it was to make these. Learned a lot actually. Thanks, Pai. Always looking forward to your uploads.
Finally, at last! I´ve been waiting so long for this. They´re also great with chili paste (nam prik pao), which is my favorite dip. I even eat my croissant with that. Thank you so much, Khun Pailin!👍🙏
Thank you so much! I've always wanted to make these on my own! I've always had them when I was a kid. I can't wait to try them out!
the key skills of making this fried dough “You Tiao油条”is using the chop stick or any stick to press the the dough in the middle before frying it. It will make the dough fluffier.
I grew up dipping these in kateiw broth. It’s so good!
We call them CAKOI here in Brunei. Some people put jams in between such as Kaya. Some even have a hint of garlic taste which is just delicious.
I don't cook. I'm try inspire my wife to follow this channel.
This is awesome. I always think this is hard and impossible to try making at home. I will definitely try your recipe when I can get ammonium carbonate. 😊 thank you.
Just saw Mark Wiens video where he is buying these from a street vendor in Bangkok. The vendor had a mention in the Michelin guide. Yours look just as perfect. Haven't tried them yet. They remind me of beignets although they are made with yeast.
Pa Tong Go Savoey was the name of the food stall.
Back in Malaysia some of us just dipped in black coffee.. it’s like must have breakfast whenever back home ...
Oohh my goodness, you just reminded me something I totally forgot. It's more than 20 years I don't eat them, but I can really remember the smell and the taste of this wonderful street food we used to buy almost everyday. Thank you 💖
Thank you for the recipe! Your shows are always fun and pleasant to watch. Thank you very much again! (:
PAI LIN IS SPONSORRRREDDDD YAAAAS! So happy for you
I'm sitting in BKK eating the real ones now :D thank you for this video
Love Pailin, you’re a great teacher! 🥰
Hi, Pai & Adam.
I just bought (the minimum size) 1 kg. of Ammonia for 55 baht ($1.6) in Thailand. Just to try this Pa Tong Go recipe. 😆
And wish i would faint or get dizzy constantly from now on. 😂😆
OMG I've been looking for a good recipe for youtiao (the Chinese version) but they are supposed to be much longer, which is hard to make at home, and a lot of recipes call for yeast, which I want to avoid. These smaller Thai ones look so much more convenient in size! In Sweden we can buy ammonium carbonate in every supermarket, because it's used for a special type of sweet biscuits called "dreams" that are super crisp and puffy and will fall apart as soon as you look at them. It's called salt of hartshorn here because... I guess they used to make it from hartshorn back in the day? Anyway, will definitely try your recipe!
My family’s favorite! They will love it when I start making these. Thank you for the recipe!
Hello Pailin! I really like your honesty here. I hope I can find ammonia and I will definitely try this. I am currently eating patong ko that I bought in the market and decided to check out for your recipe.
My favorite tea break snack.. ntg can beat this combo, coffee and pa tong go 💘
In my home country we dip in coffee or soup ‘ pho ‘and wanton soup .❤️❤️❤️
as a Chinese I can say it's well made! good job! :)
in my hometown called Panatnikom, there's an old lady who makes the best pa tong go. she'll start selling around 4-4.30am and will be sold out by 6 or 7am. i miss it so muchhhhh
Brooo I'm from Chon Buri too. I moved to a foreign country and now I realise I shouldn't have taken Pa Tong Go for granted :(
ชอบมากค่ะ อยากทราบว่าซื้อกระทะได้ที่ไหนคะ อยู่วินนิเพกค่ะ พยายามหามาหลายปีแล้ว หาไม่ได้สักที 😅
Ah, can I have mine with a glass of Thai coffee with sweetened condensed milk? Yum!
Will have to try your recipe. I've tried it and failed before, but yours gives me hope for success!
ขอบคุณค่ะพยามทำหลายครั้งออกมาไม่ดีมีกลิ่นแอมโมเนีย ตอนนี้รู้แล้วขอบคุณค่ะ
You should definitely do a pop-up restaurant! I'd buy a ticket in a heartbeat!
So true about the difficulty in finding a good "yau char kwai" in Malaysia too, where this is still quite a common snack. Our family's whinge isn't the texture, but the state of the vendor's oil - a frightfully black cauldron of dubious grease almost the colour of ink. It's so full of flour, over-fried bits and overheated oil in there, the colour is so off-putting. My mum would warn us to leave it alone... "Very carcinogenic!", she would admonish us just in case we were tempted. There are some rare vendors that use a small pan and a small quantity of oil, and frequently change the oil, but folks here are impatient for it to be fried in small batches, so it's almost a no-win situation!
For your curiosity, "yau char kwai" is the pronunciation of 油炸鬼 (deep fried ghost) in Cantonese.
I feel the same way about cheap fakes vegetables oils. There all garbage.
@@arthurnogood7450 Usually in our Hokkien dialect we call it "yew char kway", where we say "pastry" (糕) instead of "ghost". Sounds less scary anyway. The pastry word gets used aplenty here, for both sweet and savoury creations.
[Side note: as we also have the non-Chinese also making this tasty snack, it's shortened to "cakoi" in Bahasa Malaysia, especially when it's made by Malay vendors. I often have to explain to some non-Chinese vendors why the pastry comes as "twins"... of those treacherous traitors "punished in boiling oil" for eternity!]
Love love love this video Pailin!! You're so funny! Thank you for all your recipes 🙂 Keep it up!
looks very good . ~~ i am missing the pandan custard recipe. ..
I was in Thailand and at the Pa Tong Go stand, there were also round shapes pa thong ko. It tasted different than the X shape stick, more sweet but also delicious. Does anyone know what this is? Great video and thank you for this wonderful recipe!
Great recipe, I made it and it came out so good, thank you from Australia
Thank you so much for sharing your recipe! My mum tried to make them several times.. But it never came out so well.
We will definitely try out your recipe :)
Hope you enjoy!
Hai Pai, tq for sharing the recipe. I am from Malaysia. I have already try made your pandan sangkaya. My husband love the taste
This looks yummy, although I don't think I'll be making it myself.
Video idea: with so many people taking up sourdough during the pandemic, I would love to see what sort of spin Pailin would put on sourdough. I already have two starters and have made several pan pizzas with amazing crust and a couple of successful boules.
I agree!
Thank you!!!!! Wanted this recipe for so long!
Best youtube suggestion of the week! Happy I discovered your channel, and couldn't resist to the subscribe button! Can't wait for more! ❤️😊
OMG! Looks awesome! Thanks for the recipe, Pailin! This is my all-time favourite breakfast (dipped in Soybean milk) which I dearly miss ever since relocating overseas. Now.. I just need to see if I could get the baking ammonia shipped into JP. 🙄😁
Pa tong go with condensed milk is the best 😋😋😋
i remember my first time eating this in our garden when the chinese restaurant owner's wife offered us a whole box, so my dad gave them some crisps and sweets from our shop. talk about a deal.
Where can I find your T-shirt ka?
Hi Annalisa, and here you go :) store.dftba.com/collections/hot-thai-kitchen Cheers, Adam
Congee partnership best!!
Northern area of Malaysia we call it pa tong go but other areas they called pa tong go = cakoi.
Street food that we can get easily in the morning, afternoon and evening.
Dip in peanut sauce, condensed milk, curry, pandan kaya, sweet chiili sauce with peanut, congee and etc.
I miss these with the condensed milk from when I was in Thailand. Wish I could have some more ever since.
For the first time a recipe using ammonium carbonate so I can add it to my repertoire! The only other thing I use it for is my grandma's easter cookies. Also, these seem like they would please my family very much, I should try them!
This makes me feel homesick. I remember near my sister's school, there was one street vender that made very tasty patonggo, I got them sometimes when drop off my sister to school.
Enjoyed your Thai style pa tong go fritters. Thnks
So I guess I figured out my issue. I’ve been making them all throughout quarantine and they just didn’t turn out right. I was watching other videos that use baking powder/soda and yeast and told me to kneed the dough. 🤦🏻♀️ Glad you uploaded this because now I know what the heck I was doing wrong.
OK so everything you explained at the end... that is what I have experienced regarding these doughnuts but I love them that way.. Never had one that was that hollow and crispy.. Not sure if I prefer that. Must try to make them myself I guess..
