Fuiyoh! six million subscriber!
Thank you to all my niece and nephew
And as promised, today Uncle Roger gonna make pho
This my good friend, auntie Thuy
She the boss of my favourite Vietnamese restaurant in London
Little Viet Kitchen
I like your restaurant!
You do? that's good!
Yeah, but why it not open?
so we didn't open cause I had a baby
And he's really cute
It's really hard to get Chefs
You want your baby to come work here? good good
It's free labour, Asian thing, isn't it?
Yeah, correct
American chef mess up pho, British chef mess up pho also
So today we're gonna show them how it done
Uncle Roger, I know the traditional recipe for pho
But the reason Uncle Roger here with Auntie Thuy today
is because she have family secret pho recipe
Uncle Roger trying to learn
First step, we toast spices
Coriander seed
Star Anise
Fennel
Cardamom pods
Cinnamon
You did your homework
Of course! I filming with the master
Clove
Stir it around until it's now fragrant
You wanted it to be slightly golden
This is wok
When Uncle Roger see wok, I just want to do wok toss
Can I wok toss, auntie Thuy?
No, this is a Vietnamese kitchen
Everything is calm
This is how Uncle Gordon toss his fried rice in Indonesia
See?
Full of flavour
You just made my ancestor cry
No I didn't
You did!
I know some spice fall on floor
But that mean your floor now more flavourful than all of Jamie Oliver restaurant
Emotional damage!
Starting to smell fragrant
and then pouring to plate
And then put into strainer
Western chefs sometimes forget to do this
And it's actually easier when you do this
So when you take it out, you don't have to strain the whole pot
We take white people shit and make it better
That the whole theme of Vietnamese food, correct?
You're so mean
You're so mean to westerners
You know who mean?
French people who take over your country, that mean
Fuiyoh!
This is how you teabag Uncle Roger

Now we char onion and ginger
Uncle Roger never see green fire before
That's because this cooker is broken
Don't give a shit about safety regulation
This whole restaurant fire hazard
Uncle Roger like
Authentic Vietnamese restaurant
Remember to char your ginger also
Same thing, that's why you must use gas stove
Cannot use induction stove, niece and nephew
How to do this with induction stove?
You just put on the black plastic, haiyaa
So not satisfying
Pho noodles means it's made in a specific shape
So it's made for pho, it's flat rice noodles
Next step, you soak the noodles for 30-45 minutes
-Auntie Thuy, I like your restaurant decoration also -Thank you
Why is many chandelier?
Ambiance, romantic, yeah
-You don't know what romance is, really -Uncle Roger don't know
That a dirty word, nobody care
-Straight to pounding -Yeah
Skip the dining, the charming bit
Yeah, we efficient
Right
Foreplay is waste of time
No, you cheap
Look at your ceiling
What the floor on there?
We were expecting a lot of Australians to come
Yeah, funny, you like that?
Did you get that on camera?
-Very good -Yeah, I know
Come for the pho, stay for the joke
Fuiyoh! time for the meat
Look at this
I like you auntie Thuy
You hate vegan people also
How many cow you kill?
How you make vegan pho, is that possible?
Yes it is
How?
It is! using vegetables instead of a cow
Haiyaa
It's delicious, vegan pho is delicious too
It's so sad, don't give them terrible idea
The good side is, it doesn't take hours to make vegan pho
Yeah, because nobody wants to make vegan food
We don't give a shit, we half ass it
That it why only take three hour
We have bone marrow
Flank, beef brisket on bone, oxtail, shin
All this traditional pho ingredient
But this is something special
This your family secret, correct?
LVK signature, so yes
So beef short ribs is a favourite part of mine
So I added that one 7 years ago and you guys loved it
Trust me, Uncle Roger try before
It so good
See, like the beef talking to them
Hello hello, this is beef
Thank you for killing me
Now we have to bring all the meat
Wash it
And gave it massage
You don't your broth look cloudy
Throw them all into cold water
Salt
Professional!
Squeeze the lemon
And you want to give the meat a nice massage
To give good massage, I just imagine this is auntie Esther
Poor Esther
Yeah, I heard of auntie Esther, I feel bad for her
Why you feel bad for her?
Well, I think you're probably parked outside her apartment, and she doesn't know
That what people who are in love do
You buy binoculars and then stand in bushes
That how you show your love to people nowaday
I know you're married to your husband so long now
He don't do this romantic gesture anymore
Now we go to next step of cleaning meat
This time we clean the meat from inside using the hot water
See, you want to use the power of the water, to push out all the gunk
That how you make clean broth
It's actually a key
Don't scare
You professional you scare water haiyaa
Therapeutic to watch it
Uncle Roger feel I one with the water
This is like a spa, isn't it
It's like a lesson with a spa
I don't know what kind of spa you going to
You have to handle meat and bone
Now when all the scum out, time to put the spice in
So now push it and make sure it goes in
Yeah, I know
That what my ex-wife always tell me
Sorry children
I push it and it always go in
That's what you think
Remember the charred onions we have
We peel the skin
And then put it in your broth also
And the charred ginger
So, the secret recipe for our family is the daikon
Now, it's not traditional
But actually my grandma uses this, she believes it clears the broth
At the same time it's actually releasing sweetness
People sometimes use a carrot release sweetness
But then it make the broth quite orange
Auntie Thuy, I think you're forgetting one important spice
What is it?
The king of flavour MSG, fuiyoh!
Just for this time for you
What, you usually don't have MSG?
No
Haiyaa, why? Everybody in Vietnam use this
There are so much flavour in there already
Flavour is like money
More always better
Oh my god
Too much pleasure
You want some?
-Try, try, try -No
Look so good
Next, rock sugar
Fish sauce
Very important ingredient
Salt
Throw some to camera guy
Camera guy need more flavour also, here
I'm locking the door, he's so cleaning that
Now we wait for 5 hour
While you waiting for the broth to cook
Time to slice your beef
Remember, pho beef need to be very thin
Because we cook the beef with the heat of the broth
Don't be like Rachel Ray, her beef thicker than Lizzo
How to eat?
Thin sliced beef and then you do this to flatten it more
See?
Look so good
-Fuiyoh, auntie Thuy got book also! -I know!
-Is the pho recipe in here? -Yes, it is
This book mostly picture for children
I came to England when I was 7-years old
It was either mum cooking it or that's it
I hope that this book, people will buy it
If they want to learn how to cook Vietnamese or cook dishes that their mom cook for them
And their mum sadly won't be there all the time
You know, one day she won't be there
Just buy this book, it remind you of your mum's death
Just buy
No, I'm just saying
What you say?
This is book one, it's authentic recipe
You got second book? For your father's dying
This woman all about your parent dying, this one
Your parent
Can you stop touching my book like that, I'm really uncomfortable
You don't like my caressing of your book?
No no I don't! the ink!
Uncle Nick always sexually harassed vegetables
Yeah, so now you books
He the Harvey Weinstein of Tesco
Remove all the vegetable
Be very gentle, be careful
The broth smell very good now
I can see that
See what?
The steam
-Yeah? -The drama!
It just steam, haiyaa, you never seen steam before?
Their aromantic so everything's coming through
So that's what you've been spending all your time for
I smell all the MSG in here
You know what MSG stand for?
Make shit good
That's beautiful
You see it's gold
It brown
-Where it got gold? -It's gold
-Look at that! -Someone is colour blind
The natural fat
Niece and nephew, tell me if this brown or gold?
No it's gold
It's gold If you do it right
Gold!
And it's clear
It look very good
But the proof is in the taste
Good
Sweet and salty and meaty
All because of your MSG
Yeah, and also a little bit because of your work
The rest of the pho come together super fast
Cook noodle for just two second
This sound remind me of something
