I'm Steve an industrial maintenance engineer from England, Ive always loved Asian food but never been a chef.
I was also a doorman for many years and my last badge ran out after i had been working at Bustlers Street food market in Derby, being able to try out so much food tipped me over the edge and i had to start learning. I love to do things right and authentic and i love how Uncle Roger makes fun of white people and their bland food and how we always change things to be similar to how we know it rather than follow the right way of making dishes. I'm now learning Nepali from the Gurkhas at work and intend to visit Nepal next year, Ive been told by some of the guy's wives that my food is just as good as being in Nepal which is better than any Michelin star i think.
I also think down there the culture is better and people seem so friendly and keen to share food, I now get Nepali food brought into work and given me and both my local Chinese takeaway and market regularly give me things including food or gifts the normal white customers would never get 🇳🇵😋
I know some Thai people and they have tried my Thai food also and commented on how good it is, unlike Jamie Oliver i don't want to upset any Asian ancestors. I have taken over large areas of the kitchen with all sorts of ingredients to cover all of these foods.
Only a few recipes I've done below, I started learning over 2 years ago from YouTube School of Wok. As my head works differently i could really understand him so have gone on to learn from a few others which is how i ended up here as i slowly explore and see how others cook the same dish and work out the best way or the tasty way to cook something new. Marions Kitchen, World Food Paradise, Spice N Pans, Made with Lau, Sue and Gambo, Souped up Recipes, then for Nepali kanna Yummy food World, Food & Beverage Nepali, Chef Suni. Ive even followed some of Uncle Rogers recipes, of course using the right ingredients not the white ingredients.
Hey Steve…dish looks delicious. Thanks for sharing. But I would suggest keeping it separate as a new post next time, and give it a title/subject relevant to the post ie the name of this dish. Click on the button “create new post”. See attached screenshot. Happy posting 😊
