- Hey everyone, in this video my Chinese grandma “Popo” and I make Cantonese Style Curry Chicken. Every culture has a form of curry, what’s yours?
Also, I like easy one-pot recipes that you can’t mess up and this is one of them!
Recipe:
2-3 carrots peeled diced
2-3 potatoes peeled diced
½ white onion diced
1 small piece peeled ginger
2 chicken breasts (you can use chicken thighs)
1 cup of water
½ cup chicken broth
2 tbsp yellow curry powder
1 tsp oyster sauce
Corn oil
Chicken Marinade:
1 tsp dark soy sauce
1 tsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp yellow curry powder
1 tsp cornstarch
½ tsp garlic powder
White pepper
Red pepper flakes
1 tsp corn oil
Procedure:
Cut your chicken breasts into strips. Then combine flavorings and marinate them for 2-3 hours in the refrigerator. (Add the corn oil last to the marinade). Then cut your potatoes into thick wedges. Dice your carrots.
In a large pot with corn oil, sauté the ginger and onion on medium heat, then add the potato and carrots followed by additional yellow curry powder. Add water and chicken broth and some oyster sauce. Cover and turn on high heat until it boils. After it reaches a boil turn the heat down to medium and cook for 15 min. After 15 min the potatoes should be soft. Now add your marinated chicken on top of the potatoes, cover your pot, and steam for 5-7 min until chicken is cooked. Finally, mix and serve with white rice or any type of noodle or bread.
This is a perfect hearty dish to feed your family.

Hope your popo is well! If it’s possible, would love to see more collars with your popo:)
Your popo is amazing. She speaks so fluently in English and Cantonese. Love her version of curry chicken. I have the same jar of curry powder.
Appreciate your comment. Wish you and your family well!
Granny so cute
Awww....I love your popo...she is no nonsense, straight to the point kind of lady 😄
Yup, it's kinda hard to film her! I turn my back and she is finished. She does not wait for no one lol.
Your Popo ( grandma ) is the Best. I feel the love and respect between you two. She is not weird. She is left handed.
Thank you! Yes she is the best. Wish you and your family well!
Thank you for sharing 😊
Thanks Happy New Year!
Your popo is so cute! Love your relationship with her! My little grandson and I spent alot of time together before they moved away. I hope my little grandson and I will have this kind of relationship as he gets older. Cherish your time with your popo!
You are so lucky. I miss these home cooked meals so much. No place sells these dishes anymore.
Thank you I am lucky to learn from her. Yes we can carry on the traditions and feelings by cooking at home :).
Grandma's is the best.❤️
Yes all Grandma's are the best
Nice connecting with the heritage. Respect
Hey thank you! You have a great day!

Ok my friend thank you for the support. Wishing you and your family well!
Just love your grandma! I miss my grandmas cooking and she brings me back to those times. Also impressed with her English 🥰
Thank you, wishing you and your family well!
Wow I'm empress with grandma's English. The curry looks so yummy hungry htandma

Love the rapport between grandma and grandson.... the love, bond and respect is all there...💯👌👍🥰
Chinese soy sauce chicken recipe please...
Thank you Curie! Wishing you and your family the best! We filmed a video for that - ruclips.net/video/70Mh75b8s4U/видео.html
Hey Mike, you should add a title and call it the PoPo and me or Sifu and I or Cooking with PoPo! Love that you've taken the time to reply to EVERYONE! It shows you care a lot. Gung Hay Fot Choy to you, PoPo and your family!
Thanks Jason for your kind words! Happy new year to you and your family! I wish you health, wealth and happiness. Yeah I'm happy I have the chance to learn from popo and happy to share it.
I laughed so hard throughout, the whole experience warms my heart, I love your Popo and the dynamic between you and your Popo :) Keep up the great content!
Thank you! Sending you and your family good vibes.
What a Great Grand Mother. God Bless her.
Thank you bless you and your family!
Just learned from porpor to cook chicken breast by this technique. Makes sense, the chicken breast won't over cook and it stays tender. Thank you porpor. 😊
That's right! I like it with chicken thighs or legs better too!
Hey Mic, glad to see you spending time with your grandma and learning how to cook curry chicken. Always cherish and appreciate the moment while you are with her. Keep up the great work Mic.
Winnie thanks for your support - Michael
Your popo is amazing, everything grandma makes is the best cuz it’s made with love ❤️, i definitely miss the authentic Hong Kong style curry chicken. God bless
Thanks for your message, sending you and your family good energy
I want some curry chicken with jasmine rice 😋
Your po po speaks such good English, kind of jealous!
Really great video, funny and great editing will def watch more
Thanks Mr. Clean appreciate your kind words. All the best to you and your family.
I made it for my husband tonight, he loved it! Please continue to share recipes 🤗
Yay! :)
This makes me miss my grandma so much. Thank you.
Sending you good energy
She is adorable & that wasn't rain, it was hail/ice. Enjoy your grandma as much as you can.
Thank you wish you well!
I just love watching you cook with your popo!
your popo is so cute
I love this dish as well, made by my popo 🤤. She makes it every time I visit her. I just LOVE how your popo speaks English and Cantonese all mixed up!
Yeah some dishes remind us of home! I wish you and your family the best :)!
I love your Grandma!!!!
Porpor is so cute!!
Your grandma looks like mine did, except I only saw her once and never cooked with her. Now my mom is that age and sounds like your popo, except she can't cook so I watch all these Chinese cooking videos and cook for her. And you remind me of my half-Chinese, half-white son, except I lost him a few years ago and never got to cook with him. Your video gives me strange comfort, like watching a multiverse version of what could have been. Thanks for making this and good luck with the channel.
Wow John thanks for your message. Sending you love and positivity.
Popo is so good in culinary authentic Chinese food
Thank you, have a great day!
Your Gran is a super star.. My favourite Chinese meal is special curry & fried rice😋
The best!
Absolutely love this, what a lovely grandma and grandson! Dish looks so tasty, love your PoPo asking to add oyster sauce and at 5:58 telling us nevermind and that we can use any bowl for this amazing dish😭👌
Thanks my friend! Have an amazing day!
Adorable and hilarious. Love it
Thanks, man, hope you are well! - Michael
Really like this series! She is cute when she gets serious lol😁
haha yeah, she does.
This is my first time watching your video ....it's so lovely to see how well you treat your grandma, I wish my grand kids treat me the way you treat your grandma. Keep up the good work. And thank you for a unique recipe , will surely try it ...curry with oyster sauce, this I have to try. Thank you again . Lots of Love to both you and your grand Maa.
Thank you all the best to you and your family! You know I wish I was nicer to my grandma when I was younger. I did not appreciate her (she raised me). It was not until I got older that I started to appreciate her. She really loves cooking and it's a good way for us to connect. If their were no cooking videos, I would still want to cook with her for my self learning. (Of course we have not so easy days sometimes like everyone :).
I love your grandma; you guys are hilarious. Love how your grandma speaks both Chinese and English. Going to try making this dish; I have a dragon dish already.
Hey Linda thank you for your kind words. It’s a lot of fun spending time with her and learning. Lol dragon dish. Wish you and your family the best
Your grandma is an absolute delight! Thank you both for sharing the recipe
Thanks for your kind words. I’m lucky to be able to spend time with her. Wishing you and your family the best
Just made this for dinner tonight. Had to make a few tweaks since I added more chicken but this came out restaurant quality good. Thank you and your grandma for the recipe.
That's great! Wish you well my friend.
Po Po you are a good cook. I try some at home for myself.
Thanks for the receipt 😊👍
You are very welcome, happy new year!
I love your curry😋
I am going to try this recipe! Thank you and can you and your Grandma make Cantonese salted crispy chicken PLEASE 🤤😊
Looks soo good!
I love Popo❤️
She is the Queen!
I love your Paw-Paw. You're lucky to have that relationship with her and I love that she speaks in cantonese to you. I wonder if your parent's spoke to you in chinese like my parent's did while growing up?
My mom who is Chinese American didn't speak Chinese to me when I was younger. So my Chinese is not that good but never to late to learn. Wish you and your family well. Happy New Year!
Thank you somuch popoh in your Asome recipe, its me make excieted to cook this recipe in my employer

Jealous of your relationship with your pohpoh. She's a gem. Make sure you write down those recipes!
You are absolutely right I’m trying to do just that! - Michael

Nice home cooked meal :)
Popo got no time for bs, straight to the point hahah
True wish you well
@@MichaelNicastro Same to you and your Popo
Popo 係一個偉大嘅廚師
Popo is very cute 😌
Yeah :) she is the best
Can you have your popo make some vegetarian dishes or some chinese steam cakes , red bean rice cake please !
Yes I've been wanting to eat more vegetarian myself :)
Can u have her do a lotus root dish and a beef stew one. Thanks. She is soooooo cute
Yes I will ask Popo. Happy Holidays!
Your paupau is so cute
Thanks Sara I tell her that all the time and that she has fans lol
holy shit my grandma made the same type and i thought she just came up with it because i never heard of a chinese curry but this is the recipe!
Yes that's right! I'm glad this resonates
I have that same bowl
It makes food taste better lol
haha. Popo tells it like it is. No fancy plate. Any old bowl. Just put it in your mouth; never mind fancy plating.
That's the real homestyle way!
Will make this and cooked two meals from youtube and works
Yes, there's so many kinds different colors of curry containers from Vietnam for sell in the Chinese supermarkets, it doesn't look like the one you have in the video, and also they are not powder form, it's wet & thick, but I know what you're mean, maybe it changed their products of packaging it nowadays, and I will use it with po po's curry recipe ways to cook it, thank you Michael!!
Thank you Jean! Thanks for watching my videos.
Your popo reminds me of mine 😄😁
:-).
Can I get a picture of curry jar?

I added a link there for you from Walmart for reference:)
Next time, you should try the Malaysian curry
Next time!
Forget the fancy plate. You need to get a wok!
No wok lol. We need a gas burner
Very good Popo. Thumbs up. There is vegetarian oyster sauce, but it can be hard to find.
Thank you for your support. Have a great day!
I can understand your grandma, get her to make you some nom yu (red bean curd) mon (braise), either gnou nam, (skirt steak with silver skin) or pai gut (spare ribs), with taro or lotus root.
Jody Gong hey Jody I think I know what you are talking about I will ask her :)
looked a bit chaotic,it was almost bordering on a psychedelic film like zardoz or something but at the end,i must admit,that meal looked delicious.in china,singapore,malaysia,people are taught to cook so well,many from an early age.just imagine if that happened everywhere!all those millions of tonnes of food which would be saved from being thrown out and wasted!
Great! Reminds me of my Chinese Malaysian mum & her sisters! I’m Chinese Welsh with a love for cooking taught by my mum... passing this onto my boys & also others checkout RealFoodCommunity on FB
Wow what an amazing mix. That is fantastic I definitely will check it out
Just added you, great you joined! I’ve shared one of your YT videos feel free to share more.. I love fusion cultures I was born in Germany too so tri-cultural! 😂
How old is Popo?
It's a secret!
Please send me th recipe too! 😊😋
Look in the description :)
Okay thank you 😊
Are you Chinese?
@@cilukubuing3431 Half Chinese! You are Chinese I assume?
No I am not .. I am from Nagaland , India.
this is awesome. id say dont use metal utensils in non stick pots!
I'd have to agree with you lol
He's her baby.
Yuppp. Have a good day
Popo misses Singapore curry powder. Do you have a PO Box that I can send Popo? We still have the old style curry powder that Popo remembers. Easily get it from Little India in Singapore or from many wet markets in Singapore!
That's very nice of you! Thank you so much. I'm gonna set up a PO box many people have been asking :). Bless you and your family
You can buy vegetarian oyster sauces flavour.
I wanna try it! It tastes good?
OMG you over did her potatoes by 4 secs.
Lol
She said tai kok, tai kok means thailand not taiwan.
Yeah ;)
@@MichaelNicastro my grandma loves to cook also, she was from fujian province china. Sadly she passed away 2 years ago. She was 92. Fortunately she was able to teach us how to make her recipes.
@@johnpaullagasca7801 Hey John, sorry to hear about that. I'm glad you were able to spend time with her and learn her recipes. That's fantastic her legacy. I think fujianese is a region that I'm getting curious about. Just studying about the region seeing they have so much fresh seafood and a lot of influence in taiwan. I'm interested. I see your name Lagasca are you also mixed?
@@MichaelNicastro what i know is Fujian is a province, and my grandma is from The town of Xiamen. The capital is fuzhou. Brw Xiamen is a coastal town, lots of seafoods. Ive been there twice, when we visited relatives. Yes, I am Filipino chinese. Where you from?
@@johnpaullagasca7801 Ahh I
see. That's a good combination especially for the food I'm sure. I went to cooking school and several of my classmates were filipino. They introduced me to a lot of the food! "masarap" I'm Italian and Chinese grew up in USA.
India actually has no curry. Curry is a British concoction based on Indian spices. There's a word Kari from one of the Indian dialects.
I did not know that. Thank you for educating me!
Thank you, lovely granny
Thank you wish you and your family well!
No coconut milk?!
No I wish we added it though
I hate the loud horns that went off at the beginning (0:02). It's plain obnoxious.
