    What I love about Ken Hom's video is that he doesn't talk down to you, he isn't all flash, he's laid back, he takes his time to explain what he's doing at each stage. I have just ordered a wok and a selection of food items to give his recipes a try.

    HOLY BALLS. I'm fourteen and I never cook, neither do I know how to. This is the first meal I have ever made and I'm gone crazy for it. My brother finished the whole thing, oh my goddness. So basically, I used carrots, capsicum, and red peppers, garlic and then i added some garlic and onion paste. After frying the veggies etc, i added the noodles, and did as told. I added soy sauce, and lemon, pepper, salt. Ot was wonderful oh my god.

    I love watching this guy cook . I first found Ken , some 20 odd years ago on Sky's QVC shopping channel . I couldn't believe how quick he could put a chinese meal together , in such a short space of time . He gives clear , concise instructions , with as other posters have already mentioned , the reasons behind these choices , and all in a really polite and humble kinda way . Even here he showed how to hold and use a cleaver . A very pleasant guy to watch .

      +MaryKay ken hom has an excellent (old) hot and sour soup recipe, I made it yesterday. It is absolutely easy (I thought it would be madly difficult).
