This is gonna send Uncle Roger into overdrive
What?
I know I'm using a frying pan and he loves the wok
But trust me I've been to Indonesia more time than he has
DId Gordon just call out Uncle Roger?

And go check out HAIYAA podcast
Link in description
Some of my favorite dishes come from food stalls around Asia
And today i'm transporting you back to that beautiful country Indonesia
Are you ready for delicious Asian noodle dish in just 10 minutes?
Ah, Indonesian noodle
So Gordon making Mee Goreng
That Indonesian for stir-frying noodle
Oscar, pan down please
Right, beautiful noodles, udon noodles
What, what?
What he say?
Beautiful noodles, udon noodles
Udon noodle Japanese haiya
Mee gorang just use egg noodle
Or even better
Or you can stir-fry Indomie instant noodle
That's super authentic way to make Mee Goreng
And Mee Goreng is very flexible dish
Anything can go in there anyway
Remember niece and nephew
Gordon nailed his egg fried rice
He get called Uncle Gordon
But then he fucked up ramen
So Uncle Roger take that title away from him
Let's see if he can win it back
This is sort of streaky lean bacon
Bacon?
Bacon a bit weird
Let's see what he do with bacon
The flavor from it, okay
So i'm gonna to cut nice, large noodles
The street food phenomenon in Indonesia is incredible
You can actually eat sometimes better on the street than you can in a restaurant
It's that good
Correct, Indonesian street food very good
But it's not just Indonesian
If you go to Jamie Oliver restaurant
And you eat the food there
You'll realize even random shit from street tastes better than his food
Emotional damage
Bacon goes in, okay
And the secret here is to get a bit of texture for this dish
I think he trying to use bacon as replacement for pork lard
Maybe pork lard is hard to find in west
So Gordon use bacon to cheat it
But Gordon, most people in Indonesia Muslim
They cannot eat bacon haiya
Maybe Gordon bacon halal
Niece and nephew
Anything can be halal if you put your mind to it
Even Smokey barbeque pork
Is it halal?
Is smokey barbeque pork halal?
Yes
The sauce
Don't go too crazy on this
Sauce, sauce Important
I like it quite spicy, I like it quite, sort of acidic
In goes the minced garlic
Garlic okay
Ginger
Ginger, okay
That makes it a lot more fragrant
Some brown sugar
Brown sugar?
Some beautiful sweet brown sugar
A little bit of Togarashi spice
Togarashi, that Japanese again haiya
Two parts soy
Soy sauce, good
I like how Gordon pour using feeling also, fuiyoh!
That how you know him good chef
He just throw
Also, using soy sauce and brown sugar correct
Because Indonesian fried noodle, most important ingredient in there
Is sweet soy sauce, kecap manis
Gordon know hard to get kecap manis in Western countries
So he make his own
Not bad, not bad
Remember for Asian cooking
Don't use white sugar
What sugar for uncultured people
Two parts soy
Okay
So literally
Three tablespoons of soy sauce
Three tablespoon
Three tablespoon and then he pour half the bottle haiya
One nice tablespoon of oyster sauce
Oyster sauce
Uncle Roger prefer if you use shrimp paste
But Uncle Roger know
Shrimp paste is white people Kryptonite
It kill them all, they can't handle the smell
Only Asian people can handle shrimp paste
It an Asian privilege
If you have white people friend come visit you and they don't leave
Just microwave shrimp paste
They fuck off instantly
Two parts soy
One nice tablespoon of oyster sauce
A nice teaspoon of ground coriander
Gordon use feeling for all the ingridient so far
But then why you have kitchen scale at the back there, Gordon?
Why? Has Nigella been around to cut her white powder?
Now the flavors in there are incredible
I like to get this sauce made up
Gordon, why you use whisk?
Whisk is the worst kitchen utensil
Niece and nephew
You ever put whisk in your kitchen drawer
And then what happened? kitchen drawer cannot open haiya
Whisk will fuck up your drawer
Don't use whisk
Proper Asian way
You want to mix thing?
Just use chopsticks to mix
Use chopsticks
Pan down, man
Look that fat now is coming out the bacon okay
If your cameraman in video
You fucked up
Look at the back there
The only cookbook Gordon have is his own
I think Gordon in love with himself
Check the flavour
Wow
That's delicious, the sharp
I'm gonna just increase that sort of soy
Richness, darkness in there
Nice feeling Again
Always taste while you cook
It's nice and thick not too watery
but every mouthful is packed with that wonderful asian flavor
Wonderful Asian flavour
That sound a bit dirty
Uncle Roger like
I gonna use that phrase with all the new Auntie
Sorry children
Hello Auntie, what you doing?
Would you like a mouthful of wonderful Asian flavour?
But seriously, wonderful Asian flavour sound very vague because Asia big place
You say Asian flavour, nobody has idea of what it actually tastes like
That like saying you should tried this sauce
It tastes very black
Or you should try this food, it tastes very white
Actually that one kind of work
Stays really nice and crisp
So eggs
Always crack on a flat surface into the pan
Fuiyoh, that Impressive
Nice
Cracking egg with one hand
It like taking bra off with one hand
Important skill to master in life
Please, Oscar, back onto the heat
But look, take the tip of the whisk
What, haiya
Go back a little bit, see?
That don't even look like stir-fry noodle
That look like white people breakfast, egg and bacon
This look like stuff British people eat when they hangover
Where the Mee Goreng, where?
Just break that up
Break that up
You probably thinking Uncle Roger gonna say
Haiya don't use metal utensil in non-stick pan
But actually Gordon have special pan
It non-stick, but you can use metal in there, fuiyoh
Uncle Roger know this, because I meet Gordon recently
It a dream come true
Gordon give me his special pan
So thank you very much, Gordon
See, this the wok Gordon gave me
See, I just put here, easy access
So when people ask Uncle Roger
Where my wok?
I go, it right there
The inside non-stick
But you can use metal spoon in there
See?
Using metal in non-stick pan
Like saying nice things about Auntie Helen
It still feels so wrong
From there, take your noodles
And lay those noodles over those eggs
Finally, the noodles go in
Is incredible
Press them down into the eggs and the bacon
Don't use your hand, you gonna burn yourself
A little seasoning
Togarashi spice
Togarashi again
Is this Gordon's version of MSG or something haiya
Why use it so many time, Gordon?
It okay to use regular chilli powder, no need so fancy
Start caramelizing that really nicely
Now the Asian greens okay
Asian green, that what Uncle Roger call my money
Nice slicing
The leaves are really tasty
Tasty?
No, all vegetable taste like sad
And then bang
This is gonna send Uncle Roger into overdrive
What?
Trust me
You know it gonna make me angry and you still do?
I know i'm using a frying pan and he loves the wok
But trust me I've been to Indonesia more time than he has
DId Gordon just call out Uncle Roger?
Trust me I've been to Indonesia more time than he has, let me tell you
Go Indonesia so many time for what?
You still use wrong noodle haiya
Not everybody rich like you Gordon
Can fly here, fly there
When Uncle Roger get money I gonna go to Indonesia also
Maybe I do my stand-up tour there
What you think, niece and nephew?
If you want Uncle Roger tour Indonesia
Leave comment down below
Large spring onions
And just go at an angle okay
Okay
And they go in
On top, beautiful
Some coriander
Some beansprout
Plant those sprouts over there
Mee Goreng, same like egg fried rice
Everything must be prepared and then go in at once
That good
Whack up the heat
A touch of salt
And now we start mixing, okay
i'll give that a really good toss
Okay
See? that why you need to use wok
That too much shit in frying pan
There's not enough space with the the food to move and cook
[an down please, Oscar, just check this out
Got that crispiness in the bacon
See, everything stacking up on top of each others haiyaa
Gordon, you used to be Wok fuckboy, you got so many wok
What happened to you now? Now you just cooking this one frying pan
Just use wok, don't wok-block yourself
All of a sudden it's starting to form
This beautiful
It's overcrowded
See his pan? overcrowded
Tasty dish, now before that comes out
His pan more overcrowded than Japanese train haiya
Uncle Roger, watch carefully
From there
Okay I watching
Sauce
Fresh ginger, fresh garlic, soy
Now, one more toss
What worth watch?
You just putting sauce on noodle
Wow
So excitement
So adrenaline
I don't know if my heart can handle this level of excitement
Sauce on noodle?!
Too much sauce you're gonna drown it
Just coat those noodles so they're lightly glazed
But you don't want it soggy
Nothing worse than a soggy noodle, let me tell you
Haiya how Gordon know the reason my ex-wife left?
All my nephew out there
You ever will have your noodle get so soggy
And you look at your noodle and you go, Haiya, why so weak
So weak
Now turn that over
And now see the color, please Oscar, pan down
Pan down, Uncle Roger open your eyes, look, beautiful
Open my eye? My eye open, Gordon
Just because I Asian and my eyes small
Don't mean it closed okay?
Chili, ginger
Off
And when we come to serve
Generously done
The smell is incredible
Let's be honest
There's nothing there for two or three of you
And there we go
Amazing
Indonesian street food phenomenon
Fuiyoh, it look good Gordon, look good!
And done in 10 minutes
So fast
Most impressive thing is that he make his own kecap manis
Uncle Roger maybe add some shrimp paste
Some sesame oil, and of course MSG
But cannot give you Uncle title back
Because you use udon noodles haiya
This better than Gordon ramen video
I give him that
But Gordon, you used to be wok fuckboy
What happened to your wok?
Did you send Uncle Roger your last wok?
Because I can send it back to you, no worries, just let me know
Please go back to being wok fuckboy
Frying pan fuckboy don't sound as good
If you have whisk at home, throw it out
Give it to your enemy
Fuck up that drawer
Come, come Auntie come
Come try some wonderful Asian flavour
Cracking egg with one hand
It like taking bra off with one hand
Important skill to master
Don't wok-block yourself
All my nephew out there
You want to your noodle to be al dente noodle?
Not soft and soggy, so weak
Haiya, why so soft
I don't know what I'm doing
I wish we could got better close-up
The colour look good
But Uncle Roger can't tell if the noodle overcook or undercook
It like pandora's wok
Listen, niece and nephew
