Making a high protein and high fiber congee for my fitness goals

[@LucGPTnki]

Smoking embers... where do I find it???

[@jonkung]

It’s one of my spice blends! Not totally necessary just a “nice to have.”

​@@jonkung I had congee in Hong Kong and loved it🥲... but have no idea how to do it right lol
This is Definitely something I'm gonna try bro!!! Thank you so much for always guiding your fan base through your food journey with you, it's a blessing and an honor 🙏🏽💯

[@totally_not_a_bot]

​@@soul-the_argonaut5211If you want to learn, there are probably dozens of tutorials on YT at least.

[@Hyper_Driven]

@@jonkungso chicken powder is chicken bouillon? Use instead of chicken stock? What’s a solid “healthy” brand or to look for in the ingredient list? Thank you for all your help.

[@v_catto9377]

⁠Yes, you can use chicken stock too.

[@crawney]

The alternatives might seem obvious to some, but I love that you included them anyway! It really helps!

[@madeleinedarnoco5190]

The pearls are very elegant!

[@jcordero3852]

I was going to make the same comment. 😂

[@jonkung]

Why thank you 😌

[@mook_butt8037]

I honestly didn’t even notice them, they just fit so well

[@qwr742]

It's a NO from me

[@noranizaazmi6523]

AGREEd!!!

[@deProfundisAdAstra]

The Sailor Moon theme is so perfect

[@whyareallthehandlestaken]

Thanks for the chicken stock suggestion for those who can't have alcohol, so thoughtful!

[@gerald9113]

alcohol evaporates as you cook it anyway

[@jennythegiant]

Cooked alcohol is halal

[@mmm555m]

@@gerald9113 for religious reasons some people steer clear of it all together, even though it cooks out.

[@raerohan4241]

​@@jennythegiant It most certainly is not

[@raerohan4241]

​@@gerald9113 Not fully. Also, it's not just getting drunk that's an issue, it's that Muslims aren't allowed to support the alcohol industry at all. That includes purchase and sale of alcohol and products made using it. So even small amounts aren't allowed, even if you don't get drunk

[@Scam_Likely.]

I think you were the first UA-cam chef I ever followed. You really got me into cooking, more specifically cooking banging food that's generally healthier for me. I appreciate the work you do. Thank you Chef!

[@crawleah]

Love your first cookbook and big fan of your work. As a Chinese fitness foodie I would love a fitness oriented cookbook!

[@queenpinkysfamily1618]

I love your string of pearls, it's amazing how they go with everything ❤️

[@alvaromanuelblancolazo5516]

The sailor moon intro in the background is just perfect

[@miriamlevy2514]

thanks for this!!! it’s so hard to keep your favorite foods along when you’re trying to get fit but this looks sooo good! My mom loves congee but the ones her parents make isn't good for her to have all the time so I'll definitely try making this for her!

[@jonkung]

This one is better for diabetics too I think

[@volna9704]

and the moonlight densetsu… perfect video!

[@matthewking1946]

Love this!! More fitness content!

[@cherishoneal9108]

Glad I found this. I’ve always wanted congee but need to cut down on carbs.

[@tuffgong2568]

Love this guy!

[@chikentori]

I fucking love the marimba sailor moon cover soundtrack! 😂😂😂

[@raave-c137]

I find adding cumin to turkey meat really gives it a beefy flavor, if that's what you want out of it. Knowing how lean turkey is I tend to add some oil or fat to make it have the same mouth feel as hamburger.
Love the channel and I'm going to have to try this recipe 👍.

[@random3263827]

I'm so glad you posted this, I'm definitely gonna try it! I'm going through chemo therapy right now and one of the key changes I've had to make is to my diet. It's very important to eat things high in protein and fiber so I have enough energy both to still get around daily and to fight my lymphoma as well as chemo side effects.
I'll try making it this weekend, thanks again!😃💕

[@carleneromain8940]

Honestly this looks very interesting, great job chef 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 btw I’m loving your pearls very chic🥰 Thanks for sharing love😍❤️🙏🏾

Woahhh velveting without cornstarch 😮 Jon. I learn so much thank youuu

I could listen to you narrate over a piano rendition of the Sailor Moon theme all day.

Love this for non alcoholic alternative!

[@nno8901]

That looks so damn good.

[@pisey.]

Thank god for creators like you🥹 I appreciate any high protein Asian dish I can eat and still hit my fitness goals 🥳 keep ‘em coming pleaseeee

[@LSenai]

Was excited to see this! I use pulled chicken breast and oat bran (higher in fiber, and I like the texture better). It's been my breakfast nearly every day since August. Team Congee 💪
Do you have any suggestions for incorporating veggies?

[@jonkung]

Mostly in pickle form or as kimchi. Mushroom congee slaps too.

[@tantalus_complex]

Teochew-style preserved radish (as used in Chwee Kueh).
The radish is often anglicized as "chye poh," "chai poh," "choi poh," or "cai poh," depending on dialect.

[@mmm555m]

Bok Choy 🥬 is really good in it too! You can also lightly steam it and then eat it alongside the soup or garnish on top 😋

[@emmeison3028]

@@tantalus_complex it’s so good

Love this video, I'm Cantonese and when I was first getting into fitness all I wanted were chinese recipes with great macros

[@evolty1]

Not to take away from a great recipe. But your sweater is amazing 😻. Love your content ❤stay amazing

[@imintheraindripdripdrop]

My hat's off to you man. I would've never believed anyone could make ground turkey tasty. But if it works it works. Here's to sustainable eating!

[@theacademyisntt]

Really excited to try this recipe, thank you! Also, you're killing the pearl game 🔥✨

[@wonhome2711]

classy, wearing pearls in the morning.

I love that a Lofi version of sailor moon was playing in the back , ahhh so many good memories ❤

Awesome and also, moonlight densetsu in the bgm 😂

I'm going to try this.

[@milehighgaymer9088]

I didn't even notice the sailor moon music in the background until the second watch. ❤

[@julienotsmith7068]

I’m struggling with a GF diet and whenever you offer options it helps immensely, thank you.

[@-ElysianEcho-]

As someone trying to eat better and who loves to cook, i’ve found that i actually prefer turkey in a lot of my dishes

[@kisikisikisi]

I'm so scared of trying congee because I grew up hating porridge here in Finland. I did warm up to oatmeal but rice porridge still haunts my dreams. Maybe this will be my introduction to congee!

[@ericaerica9129]

That necklace is 😘🤌 chef's kiss

[@MJ-98]

Definitely going to try this!

[@PaulieWalnuts17]

Recipe aside, it looks delicious, I hope I can recreate even somewhat close; But Dude you are rocking those pearls.

[@eurojack44]

I fully support all efforts to make ground turkey….palatable.

[@beatpirate8]

I added lentils so I use less rice . I didn’t love it. But it’s an adjustment for health. Indian food has kitchari which Is delicious and healing! Good job! Will try Turkey too

[@learnallican3627]

Love this. I’m in a diet and this is helping

[@sumohamsters200]

My brain was buffering as I was thinking why am I wanting to watch sailor moon when watching this video...only to realize it's the music 😂

[@Drooh]

Love the high protein recipes!

[@ZoltanHercules]

This looks amazing for a healthy meal.

[@leinaluo9763]

I know it has nothing to do with the video, but wearing a pearl necklace so casually with an apron and cosy home wear is just fabulous ❤

[@jonkung]

Guys should wear more pearls

[@chihuli1987]

Didn't realize turkey was that high on sustainability. Gonna have to start using it more. Plus turkey done right is nice.

[@fjp9]

can also mix in quinoa, flaxseed, etc depending on your dietary needs/wants.

When a man who looks like this has fitness goals, it's kind of hard to imagine what the improvement could be...

[@heyontv]

I found some smoked turkey wings at Walmart once. I made stock out of it and throw in rice to make congee. So good.

[@kanggepanyang1364]

Ahhhh Jonny boy so cuteee

[@conradaster3764]

Def going to try this for ground pork but i also discovered an EXCELLENT ground beef substitute. Just take ground turkey and leftover (cooked) chicken breast. Mince the chicken breast and add to the turkey then make a glaze of onions, balsamic vinegar, honey or brown sugar and then season to taste while frying. I also add in pureed mushrooms and pureed roasted-eggplant for extra moisture and added healthy stats 😂. Ive been using it instead of ground beef and no one ( not even my people who've claimed to not like ground turkey or white meat chicken) have been able to tell the difference!

[@frankhsu7344]

Omg that’s the song for Sailor Moon 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊Now I love you even more

[@fran6b]

Turkey I will give a try!

[@wrathika]

South indian here where we have our own version of congee with pretty much the same name, we just make rhyme with bungee. Anyway, some of my family avoids rice because of high blood sugar. Quinoa makes an excellent congee too

[@m0use253]

I know this is silly to say but when you said "congee" my brain immediately thought kanji. Sounds very similar.

[@johnnytsunami420]

Can also just do roast turkey. Treat it like chicken etc. My family prefer a chicken congee and around holidays we will also use turkey

[@TehMomo_]

that looks BANGIN"

[@nefertitimontoya]

Thank you for the alcohol substitute option

[@Oisin2]

Cute pearls! 😊

That thumbnail and pearls he's getting older you guys 🥴 but aren't we all alongside him for the ride

[@jspanos500]

Looks delicious, but wondering if a cube or two of ginger would cut some of the turkey funk; which is odd for me to ask because my favorite proteins are gamey meats like lamb and venison.

[@lillypad5317]

You remind me to stay on my fitness journey.

[@ZoltanHercules]

How does this help with fitness etc? Looks to me to be a very filling meal with next to no calories?
Would you advise as a cut meal?

[@southpaw3687]

When you are just listening and realize on the second playthrough that he called you dry and crusty.

[@McMilesE]

Maybe you can use basmati rice, too? Lower glycemic index and has some fiber. Instead of jasmine rice

[@leciabella9461]

Liking the pearl 😊

[@visx1792]

I use turkey instead of pork mince in anything saucy. Not as good, but soooo much better for you, the difference in the macros is massive.

[@malcolmcroom263]

This looks delicious! Where do you come up with these ideas!

[@jonkung]

Necessity usually. It’s cutting season for me but I still want to eat congee 😆

[@en4431]

Would love to see your fitness journey

[@lakid9749]

Please do a kimchi vid - PLEASE !

[@Ahnee81]

Do you prefer oats or rice? I haven't tried with oats before - will definitely give it a try. I combine both the eggs....so good! 😊

Is that sailor moon in the background? Beautiful
