Hey friends, Kevin Pang here. I really enjoy reading your feedback and interacting with y'all. Any "comfort dishes" you'd like to see us demonstrate on an upcoming episode? I'd love to hear your suggestions. –kevin
Whoa, that looks delicious and totally doable! Thanks, to both of you !
I liked this, but felt like it needed some heat. I used a bit of Kashmiri chili powder (which is fruity and not particularly hot) and it really perked it up!
Father & son please create your own channel🙏 Oh yeah recipe looks delicious!
Since I was making this for my young picky eaters – I used 1/2 the white pepper and 1/2 the Madras Curry, and substituted cream for evaporated milk. It was a hit! Thank you for such a yummy recipe.
My aunt made it before it is really good.
overload of red lipstick on Kevin Pang😂 Reminds me of the lead actor I saw in a Chinese opera
So basically it’s a curry recipe 🤔
Hi Keven! I'm running out to buy curry to make this now. The ONLY thing that I'll change is the amount of salt used. Seems like a lot. Thx 😊
This sounds delicious. What sides (vegetables) would you serve with this? Looking forward to more videos with your dad.
It looks so good!!! And I think I have all the ingredients except the chicken
Madras Curry, Soja, Coconut, Potatoes & Parmesan. And it’s considered as Portuguese. Truly a “Fusion dish”: That was my thought right before you mentioned it. 👍
This is getting made this week. The son sounds like Al Michaels. Great narrator, sportscaster voice.
love this series so much! Jeffrey's story about his mom was super cute 🙂
This is just curry chicken with parmesean cheese on top.
Yin Yang rice! Ox tongue in tomato sauce rice/spaghetti!
I am restraining myself from eating what I'm cooking right now. WOW! It smells SO GOOD!
You mentioned that this can be prepared for fish, pork chops, etc. Question: do we use the cornstarch etc. for fish, vegetables, etc?
Thai style broccoli with oyster sauce! (And protein)
That looks SO-O-O good! A question: aren't a lot of people in Asia lactose intolerant? So doesn't the cheese and evaporated milk bother them?
I will have to improvise with oat milk and some cashew milk yogurt for those dairy products because they REALLY bother me!
I LOVE your relationship! I LOVE the rapport and banter! And I LOVE Cookbooks! You two are wonderful!
My mom made the best soy sauce chicken, but she’s not here anymore and I never asked her how she made it. The sauce was thick and flavorful. I think it had star anise, ginger, and maybe some sugar. I would love to see you make that!
Potatoes on rice? Yikes!
they butchered this recipe to fit the palette of white folks. How disappointing. It's supposed to be baked on top of fried rice. Think of it as a chinese arroz con pollo.
Look up other recipes on youtube if you want the real deal.
So a Chinese casserole called Portuguese chicken that if I hadn't already been told where it's from I would have guessed it came from the Midwest united states. It looks awesome though and I'm definitely going to try it.
This looks amazing.
Total love your recipes
I really wonder why it's called portuguese chicken
Could you leave out the wine?
We made this earlier this week. It was delicious! Then we served the leftovers for dinner again tonight. It was even better than the first night. Absolute heaven. I was asked to put it into the "rotation" so we can have it regularly…with enough for leftovers later in the week. Thank you so much for sharing your family's recipes.
That is curry chichen…
Forgive me, but what's the Portuguese influence?
Given the curry powder in this recipe, it makes me think of "Singapore-style" curry rice noodles…the kind you get in many American Chinese restaurants with sliced char siu, shrimp, and vegetables. Would love to see your take on that dish! (…if you haven't posted one already!)
Nice!!! I can't wait to try this. I spend a few days in Macau years ago, and enjoyed several Macanese dinners. What a great combination, pairing Chinese with Portuguese cuisines. Have you covered Hainanese chicken rice?
What can be used for a substitution of the canned condensed soup?
Delicious.
Dish looks and sounds delicious!! Can't wait to try it out tonight!! Sounds like the perfect dish,as things get colder outside…
Made this last night and followed the recipe to the letter and it was absolutely delicious! Served it over Basmati rice. Total comfort food and perfect for a chilly Autumn night. Thank you for sharing this recipe!
This dish brings back memories of the Hong Kong’s “Cha Charn Teng” – diners which specialize in dishes with unique Chinese/western fusion flavors. It is creamy and tastes like a mild version of chicken curry suitable for those who can’t tolerate spicy hot food. Kids like this too.
Delicious!
I was so excited, but got said when coconut milk came out, because I have a coconut allergy. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas what could be used in place of coconut milk (I imagine just dairy cream or milk would take the place as a liquid, but if there's anything else to get closer to the flavor effect, it would be helpful)?
I am Portuguese, travelled to HK regularly for work and I've never heard of this!
I was fully on board until you added the cheese 😅
