I love you😍
I'm deathly allergic to radishes. Can tough make Pad Thia without them?
@@DedraAmbroseandSnowhey, just don’t put em in eh? It’s your dish luv
…call it dedras special pad tai ✌️🔥🔥
@@heather2493 I wouldn't be able to hun. I hate having food allergies tbh. I have to carry an Epi pen with me at all times & it sucks lol.
I love that you tried to be respectful and cover your laugh several times to no avail. 😂
thank you!
At least he tried 🤣
@@ChefJamesMakinson thanks for being nice and diplomatic. It is refreshing to see in a world that has become rather nasty. Also love your explanations why something is a good or bad idea so we can learn from the experiences of others.
Hey, I scream at the TV on occasion when Rachel Ray is on. A family member watches her show. I try to leave the room during her cooking segment if I happen to be home. The edible flowers is a trademark for her, but it's totally stupid for me, not something I would ever even consider.
@@jayeetee2309 edible flowers have a place, just not on most foods. Perhaps a tropical themed dessert
9:38 As a Thai chef raise and born in Thailand
1. Put oil in the wok then put chopped garlic in
2. Put any protein you want, Thai mostly eat Pad Thai with Shrimp or Pork (if you go for Shrimp when it cooked bring it out the heat to rest and put it back when you plate so it not over cook)
3. Put Rice Noodle(Noodle don't need to soak in water before put in the wok)in and then add like a 1/2 cup of stock and 1 tbs of vinegar to make noodle soak the water
4. Put Pad Thai Sauce in (Sauce made from Fish sauce, Tamarind, Palm Sugar) then stirring the sauce to cover noodle then put Dried Shrimp and some seasoning like a little bit of Dried Chili, Sugar in and stir it
5. Put 1 Egg in
6. Put Vegetable and Yellow Tofu in then stir it, Chopped Chives and Bean Sprout for Authentic.
To plate put Dried Chili, Ground Peanuts on the side, some also put Sugar either.
That's It Authentic Pad Thai 🇹🇭
My English quite bad so i hope you guys get it all 😂
Thank you! Your English is good enough!
I could screenshot this recipe and follow it to the letter. You did well 🖖🏿🖤
I had a good chuckle at 1/2 a cup of stork....but otherwise this recipe looks quite good and well written.
@@viscountrainbows2857 if you follow it i miss one thing, the vegetable in 6th is Chives not Spring Onion, i call it wrong in English 😅
Can I use chicken instead of pork or shimp😐
(Tqsm for the recepie tho. I am definitely making it🤭)
I love how Chef James is so quiet and polite that, evidently, he struggles to not laugh at Uncle Roger's dirty jokes.
😂
Omg right???? Chef James is so polite, and he’s absolutely beautiful
Sorry children
I love that he laughed. It was funny!
You know she did terrible when Chef James can no longer hide his laugh 🤣🤣🤣
Chef Makinson is the best at reacting to Uncle Roger videos. You actually learn something from his comments and reactions.
I try to do my best! :)
Chef Brian Tsao is another good reactor for Uncle Roger videos where you can learn a lot more than the original videos. Him and Chef James Makinson are definitely the two best out there that I’ve seen.
@@ChefJamesMakinson It's so true. I learn so much watching and your reactions are just genuinely enjoyable!
@@ChefJamesMakinson Uncle Roger really needs to reply to you and acknowledge you. Absolutely amazing duo 😂
@@kanjilalkiriti I wish he would! maybe one day. :)
I love the dichotomy of Uncle Roger being so hype (and sometimes harsh) and the calm explanations from you. Such a fun mix of personalities.
Thank you!
Well, I'll say that Rachel Ray's version of Pad Thai had the same spirit as the original Pad Thai in that it brought all of the people of Thailand together... to roast the crap out of her for butchering Pad Thai.
😂
Thank you. I am Thai. Her cooking is really hard to watch.
Back then, our family meals comprising of 4-5 dishes to share and eat with rice regardless of time of day.
The one dish portion per person with all ingredients - protein, carb, veg, was invented to make a quicker lunch time. Noodle dishes seem to be a great idea therefore that prime minister promoted it along side with other dishes like pad krapow over rice etc.
I don’t even like Thai food and have more in common with my fellow Thai as a sloth have with elephant.
But even I am bloody offended at that Pad Gai with Mee. I refuse to associate my genetic with that thing.
My eyes bleed
Remember that this person is only a cook. Who totally tries to impress you with her inability to really do anything else but boil water and make tacos.
Chef James is the kind of lecturer that students would love to learn from 😂
Thank you! I try!
I might struggle because he has a ridiculously calming voice 😂😂
@@krithikasaikrishnan622 hypnotic affect 🤣
Yes ❤
@@ongakiko1755 chef james used hypnosis!
its super effective!
We don't use garlic nor ginger in Pad Thai, the aromatics critical to this dish are shallots, dried shrimps and pickled radish.
You also have to stir-fry the noodles with aromatics and tofu or the meat of your choice until fragrant then you can put the sauce in, the sauce will be absorbed into the noodles and will be cooked together.
Agreed. Rachael Ray just slings any type of random stuff into the pan instead of learning from the Asian masters of Asian cuisines.
🤦
@@wildsquirrelswildsquirrel7286 Yeah it's ridiculous
@@wildsquirrelswildsquirrel7286 i would try this recipe over Jamie Oliver Egg fried rice, wouldn't call this pad thai however, maybe a standard fried noodle recipe
If a person is deathly allergic to radishes can you not add that to Pad Thia? I found out I'm anaphylaxis allergic to radishes sadly.
@@vovavo3427 ah ok cool ty. I wanted to make sure before I try to make this. Food allergies really suck.
I had worked as a part-time job in Thai restaurant many years ago, they usually cooked big batch of sauce containing, palm sugar, tamarind, fish sauce, at bit of water and ketchup. Noodles were soaked overnight (for next day cooking)
from what I remember is that chef fried minced Chinese pickled radish, dried shrimps, Thai Shallot, striped firm tofu together then added proteins. After that chef added noodle and then sauce, cooked until noodle absorbed all liquid and soft then added eggs. Before turning heat off, chef added bean sprouts and Chinese chives.
So, Pad-Thai that Rachel cooked is totally off and I guess that noodle will be clumped together and mushy, not appetizing...
I like how Chef James just says its a different dish. Its no longer Pad Thai anymore.
It really is different! 😉
I love watching you watch uncle Roger, while he’s losing his mind.
I’m only a home cook and I was dying watching her basically just empty her fridge into a pan!
This was HILARIOUS......seeing an otherwise fairly stoic man like Chef James losing it had me crying
"Having a deeper oan allows you to toss the ingredients"
I don't know, I think the noodles might have had enough of the tossing 😂😂😂
hahaha 🤣
I have never seen Chef James laugh in an entire video like this one. He made me want to laugh too even though I was dying inside at the same time 🤣
🤣
Maybe she knew the dish she made needed a proper burial and that is why the flowers. In honor of the Thai ancestors who are crying when seeing this. Horrific. I am not Thai and if Uncle Roger say she fucked up so she did. I ate Pad Thai before, it was delicious and nothing like what she did here. Makes me want a real Pad Thai as soon as possible. Thank you Chef James for giving your professional view. Great funny video.
Thank you Eran!
😢 Rachel's "pad thai" looks like shit. I would rather starve than eat it. I am a terrible cook, but I can see that looks like.....please throw it to pigs 😂
The way James makes a mature face and also burst in laugh inside on uncle Roger's salty jokes is epic 🤣.
😂
Chef James, I'm glad that you mentioned about palm sugar because that's what they normally use in authentic pad thai. The flavor is totally different from the regular sugar and its milder too. What Rachel made here is a totally different dish. It's more like a chicken vegetable stew with rice noodles. She even added some ingredients that are not supposed to be there. I'm guessing that she didn't get to build that smoky flavor either. Pad thai is normally being cooked in a VERY HOT wok which is why it has that smoky flavor in it.
Like I said its something different! :)
You mean Wok Hei aroma and taste?
I don't know about wok hei but I noticed that the food (especially stir fry dishes) tastes a lot better when they are being cooked in a well seasoned wok.
@@ilovemangobingsu - And best flavor and aroma of all comes from cooking on charcoal stoves.
@@Justy051 agree!
I'm so happy that CZcams recommend your channel! You do a fantastic job of explaining the dishes while doing your best to avoid being disrespectful of the chef/cook 😂♥️
Thank you so much!
It was definitely not great, watching uncle roger lose his mind was hilarious and even as you tried not to laugh at points it was great. Loved how you are always respectful in your commentary despite the sheer amount of wrong in that video 😊
Thank you! :)
I just got back from Thailand and was taught cooking Pad Thai by a local chef like a few days ago. To be honest... Rachel's video made me cry. It literally ignored all the stuff the Thai chef told us and Pad Thai is supposed to be a simple dish...
Your reaction on the bean sprouts was perfect
🤣
Hey Chef, I really like your react videos. Specifically I like them because you add VALUE to the reaction. Always giving useful tips and tricks and explaining WHY you agree or disagree with the videos you watch. I wish more people adopted your approach. Keep up the great work!
Thank you very much!!
i just love when james smiles and says "its just on of those things you know" he's sooo kind 😖❤
Your laugh is adorable, James. It's nice to see you let loose like that. I love this video! One of your best.
I love that you're so respectful to everyone alike. (No matter how bad they cook 🤣)
Waiting for your next one. Hope you're keeping well :)
Thank you very much!! :)
Even the laugh of Chef James is very diplomatic. Very kind and not like Uncle Roger who is straightforward and nasty. Hahahahaha
thank you!
Sorry Children XD
@Yvan Dagting I assume you realise that Uncle Rodger is a stand up comedian right?
Great video! Your reactions to Uncle Rodger's reactions is an entire new gengre we didn't even know we needed. As others have said, we appreciate your knowlege, tidbits of history and respectful kindness in delivery. Your mama raised you well!
Thank you very much! It means a lot to hear that you liked it! :)
It’s okay to laugh and have spontaneous reactions 😂😂😂 you’re a joy to watch
I'm glad to hear!
I love the contrast between Uncle Roger's over the top criticisms with your more subdued explanations. Definite flavor balance there.
Yes he is the Rock to uncle Roger Kevin Hart 😂😂😂
Chef, your reaction to the bean sprouts was priceless. I always learn something, but the unexpected laugh always helps!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The following might sound weird but... does anyone else really enjoy Chef James' relaxing commentary. Voice like butter mixed with a unicorns pillow ☺️
Uncle Roger was really on a tear for this one. I admit, she deserved it! I am terrified of what she might do to carbonara! I have never seen you laugh so much during one of these videos.
it was funny!
Thank you for including the history bits. Literally my first time eating this dish was in high school because there weren’t any Pad Thai store near my house😂
Glad you enjoyed it!
I can always appreciate ur calm demeanor to peoples approaches to stuff, but I do love hearing you laugh when someone Rly does something silly
It was also a rly nice addition to add that small clip of someone explaining the history of pad thai
Hello! I’m not a chef but my family and I own a Thai restaurant- Rachel’s pad thai made my mom cry lmfao
I usually don't like reaction videos but I've been loving yours. The difference is you actually add something to the video with your commentary giving us some professional chef knowledge!
Thank you!
I didn't know the reason for Pad Thai. Thank you and Mark for the explanation. A very instructive (and hilarious) video 🙂
Hey James! After watching more of your videos, I have to say you do a great job of explaining why things are done for specific recipes. Your videos are not only funny, but super informative. Great to watch not only for entertainment, but also for learning.
I appreciate that! :)
Excellent review! As always well done Chef! You were very 'diplomatic' with Rachel Ray's pad Thai dish showing the gentleman that you are. That was definitely not pad Thai or anything even close to it. You educated us in the proper ingredients, preparation and cultural history of the dish. Looking forward to your next video.
Thank you very much Jeff! I hope you had a great week!
I’ve been marathoning your Uncle Roger react vids, and I really appreciate your particular perspective.
Awesome, thank you!
Me as well
Anyone ever saw that segment with Gordon Ramsey cooking Pad Thai, the face of the Thai chef still kills me hahaha
czcams.com/video/3IMItGHeOpE/video.html, here y'all go xd haha
@@MaximusAwesomus2 omg 😆
I have been trying to watch every video you have out. I truly appreciate these videos since you give the feeling of watching them with a world class chef sitting next to me!
Chef, you’re so polite but I love it when you let loose and giggle at the mistakes that celebrity chefs make. You give constructive criticism that is helpful and informative. You and Uncle Roger make a great pair!
Thank you!
When chef couldn't hold it together! He goes... 'WHAT is she DOING?!'
LOL
It is widely different from how we do it.
1) The pad thai sauce is usually cooked separately, using equal ratio of fish sauce, tamarind (or vinegar if no tamarind - though my grandma who was almost a hundred years old never uses tamarind in her pad thai, maybe some regional variations I guess.) and palm sugar, put them to a boil until large bubble appears, turn off the heat and let it rest. You can do it in a large batch and put it in the fridge for later uses also.
2) We also use dried shrimps, tofu, pickled radish, garlic chives. Beansprouts are also widely used, though not really a requirement.
3) The garnishes considered traditional would be raw green onion (using the white to light green part, put them in soda before serving for more crunchiness and a bit less sharpness), raw banana blossoms (washed and soaked in water with lime juice to prevent oxidation), raw beansprouts, dried chilli flakes and crushed peanuts.
4) The noodle used could be rice noodles, or glass noodles. Glass noodles are much trickier due to how easy they could get soggy. But if done right, the texture and mouthfeel are ways better than your usual rice noodles.
I love your channel Chef. Currently working in as a line cook and I learn sooo much from your content. Keep up the great work Chef!!
Really? Haha I'm glad to hear that! If I have enough space I would make a video on how I would push orders out! ;)
@@ChefJamesMakinson please do chef..we'll be waiting for it👍
Love the video James!!! Keep up the good workkk
Thank you!!
I love these reviews..maybe one day I'll actually try to cook one of these recipes.
The way that Chef James is trying to hide the hilarious laugh it's just... well... hilarious.
You are very professional and pedagogical explaining different cooking techniques. I really enjoy watching your videos
I really appreciate that! Thank you! it is not always easy.
Just earned a new sub. Pro comedian home cook + bonified pro Chef = fire ass content!!
haha thank you! 😂
The worst Pad Thai recipe is more than enough to literally tear you down to pieces. It’s one of Thailand’s beloved dishes and for that to get messed up is just a huge no-no. Your reviews are always appreciated, Chef James. Continue working hard and do what you love doing the most.
thank you very much Sophia!
It’s not a big deal lol. Thai people aren’t like Italians with their food; the way people cook pad Thai changes significantly in each region and even each restaurant. Some Pad Thais are sour, some overly sweet and some super spicy. Variation in cooking really isn’t a big deal. Thai people also don’t really eat Pad Thai that often; it’s a very touristy food. Kra Prao and pad see ew are much more popular. Heck, even Tom yum goong, Tom Sap, and yam woon sen is more popular(at least in BKK). I’ve been working here for years and I’ve yet to go out with a Thai person or a Thai company that orders Pad Thai for the table. It’s just not that popular here.
I love the reaction to the Rachael Ray Oil Bottle. I wonder what he would have said if he knew it was from her product line.
Thank you! I always learn so much from you! xoxo
TBH, I love every time James trying to ignore or not to laugh when uncle Roger says a dirty joke LOL🤣🤣🤣
I couldn’t tell if he didn’t like them at first but the more you watch you can see he is holding it in lol
This is the right way to do reaction videos, giving commentary backed by knowledge, not just sitting there laughing in mute 😂
thank you! I cant stand to see a lot of reactions because of that, they add no value.
You know. The best thing about these kinds of videos. (In my opinion)
Im learning the right ways of cooking stuff that i might not ever make, but are still nice things to know when I feel like trying something new.
Chef, I appreciate your professionalism while giving your feedback. 😊
I appreciate that!
"a little tamarind goes a long way" Rachel knows that people just munch on tamarind fruit as is, right? It's delicious.
Man I watch you videos like series for whole day)) Wonderfull channel!
Thank you!
I'ved subscribed today enjoy your video. Glad you know about Asian cuisine. Great review Chef.
Awesome! Thank you!
I couldn’t stop laughing when uncle Roger said tamarind paste is not a secret, it’s tamarind not heroine 😂😂😂
I love your laughing reaction. It made me laugh so hard too! 😂
5:36 this is such a good tip. My stove is not completely leveled and now I know.
I always add the wet ingredients last but over the noodles as the steam and liquid helps cook the rice noodles and i usually let those soak in water like uncle Roger says.
I'm not a chef but I'm Thai. And I think that my Mommy makes my favorite Pad Thai, which I considered is the best one for me. But then everyone's Mother is their best cook, right? Anyway, we are not here to talk about my Mom's cooking. We are here to talk about this popular dish that's a representation of my country being destroyed in this video. In all my 50+ years on Earth, I've NEVER had chicken Pad Thai. Prawns, yes. Mince pork with prawns, yes. Minced pork, yes. Seafood, yes. But chicken.... No.
As to the ingredients used. Like Uncle Roger said, all the greens are the wrong types. No ginger is in it. No soy sauce EVER!!! Eggs are done wrong. Beansprout is cooked wrong. Noodles are definitely done wrong, wrong, wrong!!! And lastly, no edible flowers!!! Ugh!!! Looks pretty but is not for consumption. Be advised that everything on this dish is wrong.... Because its flavor profile is all wrong... 🤢
Indeed, everyone's mothers are the best cooks, I miss my mother's cooking...
Stumbled on your video from going down an Uncle Roger rabbit hole. I love how your tone is a complete counter to Uncle Roger's melodramatic reactions.
Thank you kindly!
Being such a good chef and been in kitchen for so long you are very calm its wonderful 🙏🙏🤣🤣
“That was a little nasty.”
So nice 😊Informative and I learned quite a bit. And you have such a friendly smile. 😀
Thank you! :)
I love your content bro. You are the respectful uncle Roger and I learn so much from your channel
I appreciate that, thank you!
I showed my friend this, he was truly horrified by this Pad Thai. We both agree that you actually teach us something. Like I had no idea there was palm sugar and cane sugar- I just thought sugar is sugar ( I know, I’m very uneducated) I feel like you will become really famous quickly if you keep this up!
Your reactions are the most informative I've ever seen
thank you very much!
I agree about the stove being unlevel, mine is too and it's a pain. Got to get my husband on that. Thanks for reminding me.
Actually in Thailand we have another menu similar to her version of padthai called “Pad Tang Tak” which mean “extremely poor guy stir fried nooble”
Oh no, I knew this day would come 😂🤣😂
Edible flowers as a garnish... bull testicles are edible too, but I wouldn't want either of them on top of my Pad Thai.
Chef, after finding your reaction videos with Uncle Roger, among my CZcams suggestions... I can't stop binge-watching your channel! Great stuff and I'm learning a lot. Love your editing and format of the Uncle Roger reaction videos... and you, trying to hide your laughter at the most ludicrous things I've ever seen... like the dumping of an entire package of noodles into the pot or the bean sprouts, had me laughing so hard that my stomach hurt.
Don't forget a third option: the burner might not be level. Friend of mine has a burner that has like a 8% tilt to the rest of the stove top
Something I just realized. Rachel was really lucky when she dumped those noodles in the pot. If that water had hit the fry pan it definitely would have caused some grease to splatter. It probably would have just been a few droplets, but sometimes that's enough! I've been frying doughnuts for a few years now and I've had some hot grease almost hit my eyes a couple of times!
Palm sugar + fish sauce + tamarind (best if from dried one) = pad thai sauce, perhaps adding dried chili for the spicy lovers with ground peanuts and squeeze fresh lime right before eating. Shrimps, hard tofu and eggs are common protein we normally put. Remember the sauce is well balanced with slight sweetness from palm sugar.
No No ingredients are ginger, chicken, carrots, fresh chili, onions, shallots, celery, basil, mint leaves, garlic and flowers for garnish if you see cooks who put such ingredients into pad thai, just turn to another channels.
I believe she didn’t eat this dish, it’s only a show in response to the audience requests.
Uncle Roger, Thais love you for speaking for us.
I really enjoy your review of a review format for these. I get to laugh at Uncle Roger and still get to know some more real knowledge along the way.
It's really making me miss Chinese food, especially fried rice, but I can't eat carbohydrates.
l like how calm you are, not saying anything harsh even if it's very wrong
10:37 was probably the best part out of this whole video. cant stop laughing
And then the bean sprout, we got not rest!! 😂
That meal scared me. I did take your advice on Mae Ploy as an alternative to all the prep. WOW, they are good. I bought the red, tom yam, massaman and panang. EDIT: I also tried the Squid variety of fish sauce, it is better.
Which variety did you prefer forPad Thai. I have these pastes and the panang makes a good yellow malay style curry.
@@charlottejames9255 Haven't found a Pad Thai version yet :( Still looking, Amazon not perfect :D
you may have to visit the Asian market.
Chef James got the fresh cut, looking sharp homie! Love your videos especially your recipes stuff, keep up the great work and much love from South Africa 💫
thank you very much!
I am Obsessed with your video sir! 💯
Liked, Shared, Subscribed ❤️🔥
Wow!!! I am Thai and I never see Pad Thai look as bad as this!!!! Can't image of the taste.
Normally, we use wok and put oil to heat up the wok then rice noodle with all the paste (I always order more juicy noodle, so may add a little more water in it) put dry shrimp, cut yellow tofu seasoning them with fish sauce dried chilli, temarine sauce and sugar. Restaurant will season it in a seperate cup ready to throw in a wok. stir everything put all aside and add an egg. Stir all ingrediants again. Finish it with beanspout (not too much) we will commonly have fresh beansprout, fresh banan blossom and lime. Yummy!!! I'm gonna order the real thing today!
For the history of this dish, yeah it come from the thought of our Prime Minister want to have a very Thai manu that's use all ingrediants from Thailand and it should be easy for common people to cook at home.
She should call it a homemade stir fried noodle inspired by Padthai. She changed the ingredients and cooking method in the way that a Thai person wants to cry.
Hi chef.. All the tip that you are saying on your reaction video I always keep that on my mind ☺️ It really help me a lot aince I am new in cooking.
I'm glad to hear that Monica!
This is the best reaction video so far imo. Funny and informative. As a side note, sweet jesus that was a ton of bean sprouts.
I can’t believe she has a cooking show. She cooks in a rush!
I like how hard you try to ignore the dirty jokes and fight the urge to laugh :D
the closest thing I have to that transfer plate is one of those spoon rests, I just use a normal plate
hi Chef James, keep em coming coming ! 💪
Will do!
Josh Wiessman did a Bryani video a few days ago. You know what to do
I was just thinking of reviewing that today!!
I'm not a Thai cook but I know how to make pad Thai. I felt uncle Roger's pain on this. 😂
Also thank you for letting us know the history of pad thai
You are so calm....and have a calming voice.....for a chef.
So not used to a soft spoken chef.....not anything like Gordon Ramsey...😅😅
the sauce is actually very simple, since it's just heating tamarind pulp with palm sugar until all is dissolved or melt palm sugar fist then add tamarind pulp, then add fish sauce to taste
practically need no other for salty, sweet, and sour
as for protein, the firm tofu was used in original one due to the fact that meat and seafood are expensive and has shorter shelf life due to lack of refridgerator back then so, the cheaper, more available, and longer lasting tofu is used
Also, I used recipe from Pailin's Kitchen (the one that Uncle Roger used for reference) which I think works really well
Chicken Pad Thai is white people thing. You won't find it anywhere except restaurants in touristy areas cater for westerners. Authentic Pad Thai only has tofu and dried shrimp/fresh shrimp. Old style Pad Thai comes with crispy pork skin also.
crispy pork sounds very good!
I haven’t seen you laugh this much 😂
I'm less camera shy now! :)
