    Hi Keith..to use a Chinese tenderiser put the meat in a dish and sprinkle bicarb of soda and a teaspoon of corn flour..leave for about 4 hours or overnight..this is called 'velveting'..then add the flavours..as you did..you are a fab cook..😉👍💐x

    Dont need the water when velveting, just the bicard will do. Or can add your soy etc same time. makes meat so much better when making Chinese food

    That looked spot on Keith, I much prefer the Goldfish brand to the Mayflower curry, paste is better than powder, in my opinion anyway, we had a takeaway from the Lombard last week and the special curry had no flavour and the sweet and sour chicken balls were burnt, not so good there anymore think I’ll be putting my order in with you instead cause I like your delivery guy 🤣 x x

    If you're making meat balls, burgers, kebabs, cevapcici or meat loaf etc add a wee bit of bicarb to the mince meat mix and leave in the fridge for 30mins before using. About 1/2 teaspoon to 500g of mince. Makes the finished product light and tender.
    Try it, you'll thank me one day! Ha!

    Keith, great recipe. Will be trying this one, thank you! If you like prawn crackers regularly, there’s a cheap way to get them. A Chinese wholesaler will sell you around a 1kg box of these. They’re dried, all you have to do is fry them up which takes seconds. Now, I last bought a box about 6 years ago, cost me about £6.00 from a shop in Banbury. They’re well worth it and very cost effective. 😊

      If you live near a good oriental supermarket that stock goldfish you'll get it in a Chinese hot curry sauce version, that's the Chinese curry version Keith is using . Tesco only do the Chinese version I normally make it in a small pan with hot water, just enough for a curry and it's only about 2 tablespoons. You can also get that paste in a madras and a garlic/chilli

  • @dbanksey216
    @dbanksey216 11 месяцев назад +2

    This is actually terrible, your beef strips are way to thick, you didn't prep the beef correctly, your loosing all the flavour of the beef you already tried to prepare by sloshing it around in liquid when you are trying to thicken the curry. The curry paste should have been made up before. You should have fried the onions and beef strips first. The MSG should have been added when you were frying the beef and onions. You should have added Garlic Powder to your beef prep, and more Dark Soy Sauce and less water. Other than all that, good job lol
