Oh my goodness, looks amazing! We love your Chinese style recipes can’t wait to try this one.
I have to try this! Looks great
Scrumptious Rik… I mean the dish! 😂sorry. Seriously that looks so yummy . Thank you dear Rik. ♥️🙌🏼. I’ll be passing this one on to friends too. ☺️.
Looks delicious Rik, I make similar but use garlic and chilli sauce instead of hoi sin. Another thing that used to annoy me was all the faff with the baking soda velveting. All the rinsing etc yet I still got that sodium taste. That was until I was taught to use potato starch, that worked but not as good. Then this chef told me to use Korean pear grated, I couldn't source one so used a normal pear, it worked! (It's the enzymes) So straight from velveting bowl to wok. Not only was the beef tender but it had a very nice sticky and sweetish tang to it. Goodbye rinsing and patting dry. Your dish looks terrific though. 👍👍👍
Looks delicious,I need to buy some beef,as you have made several Chinese style beef dishes I would like to make,I never really buy beef,except for ground as I like an occasional burger. I love your answers to some of the comments on your channel, as I read the comments,I often think Rik’s answer to this one will be good.😂
This looks incredible Chef! I enjoy large chucks of peppers and onions too as they tend to keep their texture. Thanks for sharing 😋
G'day RICK
I WOULD PREFER my Asian spread
ALL THE SAME.
WET AND MOIST. . …..
Do love a stir fry 😋cheers Rik for sharing .
Tomorrow's dinner
Looks fantastic Rik, so quick colourful and best of all good for us, you're the best. Im going to enjoy this with noodles and a few beansprouts stirred in at the end 😊x
This guy reminds me of that one cool history teacher you had in HS
Your cooking pan seems to handle ll dishes! Thanks for what you give us.
Excellent ❤
Thank you. I have the meat “velveting” a new technique for me. Veggies are cut and sauces is made, just waiting. If you ever write a cookbook I will buy it. My only question was about the beef, I was not sure how to cut it up. I normally just roast this cut for 8hrs in a slow cooker, so am not use to dicing it up.
Perfect video to watch while I’m enjoying Chinese food
Love your videos, Rick❤
