Alex was Born and bred in Glasgow..He's been working now in various Chinese takeaways as a delivery driver for the past few years or so..Most of what he's learnt is just by watching the chefs..
In all my videos i use a high power burner so cooking temperature's may vary cooking on a normal hob..Not all takeaways will ignite the food the way i do and just cook in the normal fashion..This is just my preference..The most important part is using the correct condiments and you will produce some amazing results..My subscribers are testament to that which i'm pleased about.
Below is a list of products i use,condiments,essentials tools etc

It's important you use measuring cups and spoons UK standard
In China traditionally sweet and sour is made from mixing sugar or honey with a sour liquid such as rice vinegar, soya sauce, . Sometimes a paste made from tomatoes is used but this is rare ..That's why for home use some will use ketchup but not needed for this style...Takeaways all use this preferred method..Try and use less food dye..I used just a bit too much which sometimes can happen.. if you use tomato puree you will loose it's transparency and also alter the flavour..
Sauce
1/2 cup canned pineapple juice
1 tbls golden syrup
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1/2 tsp light soya sauce
1/2 cup white sugar..
Pinch of white pepper
Pinch of salt
5 tbls of water
1 tsp sriracha sauce
2-4 drops red food colouring or powder..Note.. It only needs a tiny amount
2 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with 5 tablespoons of water..This will thicken the sauce..Just add a bit at a time until the sauce thickens..
For the chicken batter use
2 chicken breasts cubed
Two whole eggs
Pinch of salt
Pinch of white pepper
Half tsp MSG
3 heaped tbls of cornstarch
Mix everything together
No need to marinate..Use straight away
Deep fry in vegetable oil until golden brown..Takes about ten minutes
Keep your gas on a medium heat through out the cooking process..Done
The batter will stay crispier longer using this method
Veg
Half green bell pepper sliced
1 medium onion sliced
A few pieces of pineapple chunks
Method
Stir fry your veg in some vegetable oil for a few minutes and then add your sauce..Now add your pineapple chunks..
Thicken the sauce with cornstarch slurry..
Next add your chicken..Make sure the chicken is still hot
Coat the chicken in the sauce..Done

Cantonese Sweet and Sour Chicken Recipe 糖醋雞
This is a classic Cantonese dish you will find everywhere in Guangdong Province in China. With this recipe you can bring this to your own kitchen. Please let me know how you think about this. WHen you master this you will never order this again at the chinese.
Equipment used to produce this video:
- “Flagship killer” smartphone Oneplus 2 as camera.
- Low budget tripod with flexible standard.
- Software used to edit video footage used is Lightworks.
- I will transfer at least 1 video per week from my custom build computerdesk with integrated computer to Youtube. At least I will try to.
Some people claim that it is easier to cook with electricity, like a ceramic hob, and that it is cheaper. I solely cook with gas since I have no other choice. Also most Chinese dishes are only cooked with fire instead of electricity.
So if you like my video’s and you want to be notified when a new video is released, don’t forget to Subscribe or visit my Facebook.
Feel free to donate so investments can be made in better equipment to produce even better video’s for your entertainment. I do understand that it won’t be enough to pay off any loans or mortgages but any recovery of the time and money spent to make those videos are greatly appreciated.
Trading in subs is not accepted by me and against my believes to truly grow. So requests will not be replied on.
And I’m sorry that I have to say I do not have time to give cooking classes since I have a fulltime job beside my Youtube video making. But I might try to make some hosting videos in the future of how to cook.
Please feel free to leave any comment, positive or negative, behind. Since I am also a normal human bad treatment will not be appreciated.
