I genuinely felt offended watching this, even more than when watching Jamie Olive Oil. It was that attitude of "Asian cooking is so easy, you can just throw whatever crap you want in it and voila, you made an Asian dish." It would be like if I said, "Fish and chips are so easy to make, but you don't have to use fish, you can even use beef. And you don't have to fry your potatoes, you can just steam them." or "Scones are super easy, you don't even need to use flour, just use whatever crap you have around the house, even tofu will work."
please tell me it's not common practice to oil your meat like that in Ireland. Like I can forgive her for making a shitty pho but who does that to the meat before you sear it? Surely the oil goes into the pan and the meat goes in dry with only seasoning on it right? Like oiling the meat isn't a thing in Ireland is it?
To her defense doe: Uncle Roger made a mistake at the beginning of the video. She clearly said "foe" instead of "pho", clearly meaning she´d rather trash it than eat it.
in Vietnam, when changing your noodle and some of ingredients in the broth, your dish will be different from Phở to Hủ Tiếu, Hủ Tiếu Nam Vang, Bún Cá, Mì Quảng, Bánh Canh, Bún Mọc, Miến Gà, Bún Bò Huế, Bún Riêu... It's a culture ya know?
No. The point of this segment on the show is not to show you how to make authentic dishesm. It is implied that the recipes shown are an interpretation. Just as if you eat French food in Vietnam, it is not the same as in France - it is adapted to the taste buds of the locals.@Prizmguy
@@airstrip1836 Don't take "it's is adapted to the taste buds of the locals" as an excuse. You completely change the way you cook Pho-a very popular traditional dish from Vietnam and said this is how to make Pho is very wrong.And the only thing changes about French food in Vietnam is how we seasoning the dish
@hplvgaming3939 I have been to Vietnam several times. The local French food is not authentic, the pizza is not authentic, the Thai food is not authentic, etc etc etc. And this is totally fine. People will always adapt. Pho itself is an adaptation of Chinese soup with a twist of French influences. New recipes are made by adapting old ones. My advice would be to stop taking your sacred Pho so seriously, and if you don't like it, don't eat it. Simple. That is what I do when I am abroad, and I see the weird adaptations of my own country's dishes.
As a representative of people from Irish heritage, I've seen this woman cook Irish food also, don't worry, she makes my ancestors cry also , she did horrible things to Irish stew, Colcannon and other Irish foods so I'm not greatly surprised that she fucked up Pho so badly (one of my favourite Asian foods along with Nasi Lemak and Nasi goreng).
The problem is "chefs" like this lady are trying to take old world recipes that take hours to make and try to change them into something you can make in 15 minutes...it really insults the dish. If she wanted to make beef noodle soup, then she would be fine...but Pho...my recipe I use, I start my broth the night before, I don't dump a knoor cube into a sauce pan and call it a day...I would look up her irish stew but I am not sure I can handle watching it
She not just insult the Vietnamese ancestors. She has offended all East and South East Asian ancestors with the noodles, "all noodle cook the same." A new record.
It’s crazy how most regular people look up recipes when they try to cook something but this “chef” had the audacity to go on national television and decided to completely disregard the recipe to make this atrocity.
As a fellow Vietnamese who's parents used to own a pho shop, this kills me "You can use any kind of noodles you want." 😭😭 In Vietnam it's called "pho" because that's the name of the actual noodle, like GIRLLL
It like saying: when I make fired chicken I often use pork chop instead since they are both meat and to fry it I put it in the smoker since they are both a means of cooking meat.
They're treating Pho like it's fried rice (where you do have a lot more degrees if freedom), but even with fried rice, there are rules. I can't put rice in the oven, nor can I add buffalo wing sauce or ketchup or I don't know, fucking Dijon mustard. There's a certain WAY to make these things, certain things you can use, not use, and so on. This "anything goes" mentality is really really dumb. I don't doubt that Pho is different depending on who's mama is making it, but they just just say "It's a free for all!!!! Use whatever you'd like!!!!"
The word PHỞ literally translates to the specific type of noodle used, BÁNH PHỞ. So, you really can't use another noodle and call it PHỞ. It's like putting honey and butter on bread and calling it a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Absolutely correct. Its called Phở because that kind of noodle is Phở, it's special. What if you use chinese noodle to make spaghetti and call it spaghetti. Bullshit
He's also super lenient on his pho recipes too. An hour to cook pho? No, 12-24 hours but he gave the "uncle" status to that punk kid that cooked pho in 8 hours. I've been trying to perfect pho for awhile now, and if you google a recipe you will see it takes 12 hours at least unless you use a pressure cooker (which is also offensive to some people). So you know these British people are REALLY fucking it up.
As a Vietnamese, I appreciate that people are spreading our national dish worldwide. I'm offended by this woman insulting our national dish on British national TV, and for the host who said fish sauce smell "horrible", is disrespectful. Pho is our comfort food, it doesn't take 10 mins to make and you don't just throw in whatever you want. This woman has no shame in saying all noodles cook the same time, and claims she's a chef. Such a disgrace.
I make pho from Raman Noodles, fish sauce, hoison, ginger, onions and jalapeños slices. It's not pho, but it's really good Raman!!! lol the closest Asian market to me is over an hour away. 😢
The host literally said 6:28 "Fish sauce is nice in the dish. But without being in the dish, smell horrible". I don't think anybody get offended by that. Edit : i put the timeline so u can click it.
It’s not disrespectful to say fish sauce smells bad. Don’t be ridiculous. They even said that it's nice in dishes but that the smell on its own was awful...
at this point she’s not even just insulting the dish, she’s completely disregarding so many basic knowledge and common sense about cooking, which makes me wonder how she could even go on the show in the first place
As an Irish person, I can tell you we are naturally allergic to food. During the potato famine we chose to die instead of learning how to fish and make sashimi.
Uncle Roger, you should make a video on how to make a traditional full English breakfast, except… 1. Change out eggs for egg whites only because of cholesterol. 2. Change meat to Canadian Bacon. 3. Use chickpeas because they’re trendy. Then call it a Traditional Full English Breakfast out of spite. See how they like it 😂
I'm a white boy from Canada. This has made me visibly upset. Not only she wouldn't know pho if she drowned in it, she also kept giving bad information. She litterally said that all noodles take the same time to cook! What is wrong with her? How did she manage to convince people she could be trusted with anything more complicated than a toaster let alone be some tv chef?
Vincenzo, I stopped relying on food television years ago. It's all set up for shortcuts. I enjoy the process of cooking and tasting the end result! That's why I rely on you for my Italian cooking!!!
While Uncle Roger put his leg down, mine fell off so I had to use my other two to find the supper glue to put it back on. Afraid what the other eight minutes of that woman is going to do to me...
As a Vietnamese, I am very proud that foreigners are interested in our food. But most of them do not know how to do it right, leading to disaster. But in the end, I still support them in spreading Vietnamese cuisine to the world and Uncle Roger are one of them.
My mom gone mad after seeing the honey in the broth, and she yelled out all Vietnamese profanities. That’s how madness it is. (Gladly my mom didn’t teach me the profanity)
It can't be that difficult to find a Vietnamese chef to cook a Vietnamese dish on TV. Just let the people represent their own culture instead of letting someone else ruin it.
So the morning show business isn't about cultural accuracy. It's about selling your guests book. The only reason that lady is on the show is he publisher of her book asked the booking agency in charge of the show to have her on. You can't stop ignorant white folks from making fusion cookbooks, it's the lynchpin of the cookbook economy.
This is why we need many more gatekeepers of colour in media. So many white people think this is perfectly ok. Everything belongs to them. Even other people's culture.
@@mung01re This bitch thought all noodles are the same, not just same cooking time. It's so disrespectful that I think you have a borderline case of hate speech.
I’m Vietnamese. I’ve been making pho for my family since I was 10. This chef made me cried watching her but it’s Uncle Roger’s reactions that kept me watching and laughing rolling on the floor. He’s so hilarious and so right.
“Any noodles can be used, any kinds of broth can be used” As a Vietnamese, I’m offended. Just beef pho and chicken pho are made with completely different spices.
You shouldn't really take offense at that part. She's just trying to give options for people who may not have access to certain types of ingredients (and also probably keep it quick for the show). It is offensive that they claimed it was "Pho" instead of "Pho-inspired" given everything she did "wrong".
The key part is decided to make her own WITHOUT A RECIPE. Like she decided to free hand it from the smell alone after walking past the pho restaurant and then went onto national TV to tell people how it's the right way to do it.
I am Vietnamese, and I can hear my ancestors cry throughout the video... Haiyaaaa Jokes aside, thank you Uncle Roger for correcting and roasting her cooking! I can feel my poor inner Vietnamese soul dying... your Vietnamese cousins are proud of you!
As a Vietnamese, this would give my grandmother a heart attack. There is a reason why Asian dishes that contain noodles are known for having used that specific noodle, you cannot just improvise and wack anything in 😭 I love your weejios be the way! :D
As a Vietnamese, i am litterally crying my heart out.... they can call it 'anything' they want, beef noodle, beef rice noodle... Why do you have to call it "Phở". I take this personally, okay, this is humiliating our culture. The recipe is wrong on so many levels. OMG, can't wait for the video of Uncle Roger making Phở. People, PLEASEEEE subscribe!!!!!!!!! 11:40 TV cook lady : You want this on a Monday. Uncle Roger: No!, I don't want this on any day. Me: even I'm in jail and this is my last meal, I still don't want it. I will rather be a starving ghost, thank you :)
As you say call it a British quick meal based on pho. Not pho. At least then it admits where the idea came from but also screams don’t expect to be like the real thing. Then. And only then. Can you make with any old noodle, whatever green leaf thing you found, and if you just threw an oxo cube in some water as your broth. Fine. There’s no pho experience expected
It's honestly annoying sometimes, I'm part Chinese and so some of my friends will jokingly tell me "I had the food of your people last night" as a joke and I'll ask "Oh yeah, what did you have?"... Their response "I had ramen and Katsu curry" so when I try to correct them they laugh and say "Oh it's all the same thing".
“If your pho has crunch, then you need to be punched.” 😂 Love this! It is pretty sad that this pho basically became a “add whatever you want” soup or “broth”. It’s not pho. It’s just another cooking soup video.
As a Vietnamese, I guess my ancestors are crying after watching this lady cook Pho. I loved how people widely spread our customs and cuisines all over the world, but this is offensive. Please if you don’t understand one’s culture, go study and do research, don’t do it your way and called it in the name of that country’s food.
@@justaname9544 my grandma’s family will re-incarnate only to die of despair just like how wanna die while watching this woman ruin my favorite dish and my heritage
A nice juicy steak in my pho sounds much better than thinly sliced beef to me! This is the thing though. Every country adapts dishes to their own taste. I have been to Vietnam, and let me tell you, the French food doesn't taste authentic, the pizza doesn't taste authentic, the Thai food doesn't taste authentic..etc etc etc. But, that is fine. The Vietnamese have adapted the food to their own liking. Good for them, I don't care. Why worry when a daytime TV chef is giving ideas for bored housewives' dinners?
@@Go_dying Yes, even as a white guy I can make better pho than that. First do proper research, THEN pay homage to the country, which is Vietnam in this case. Anyone can learn how to make anything, but they must be taught correctly from the beginning, and practice, practice, practice and practice.. Emotional damage it is!
She is the definition of what I hate about ignorant people. So in love with herself and how awesome she thinks she is, simply by ignoring all knowledge that would make her realize how bad she is.
This woman is the embodiment of the Dunning-Kruger Effect. I thought only Jamie Oliver could be this confidently wrong on TV but compared to this he's a bona-fide UNCLE with a cherry on top.
"It doesn't matter" "Use whatever you want" This can apply in a lot of cases, but NOT when you make specific dishes. "I'm gonna make lasagna, but instead of noodles I'm gonna use sheets of cabbage." THEN IT'S NOT LASAGNA IS IT?
No cheese necessary either, just use any kind of dairy product that strikes your fancy! And you don't have to use tomato sauce, it could be sauce from any fruit or vegetable, depending on what you think tomatoes are 😆
I usually think uncle roger is being harsh for comedic effect but this time it's actually incredible that this lady was allowed on national television. The beef is completely undercooked, blue rare, the broth is likely from a box, the noodles are overcooked, none of the elements of pho are honored here whatsoever. A total disgrace.
Harsh, what the hell is that. I'm Vietnamese and this video is so disgusting to watch. They made Pho but nothing like the original Pho at all. Frying Beef, Putting Honey into the soup, what the hell is that. I'm done with these videos made by white people but they know nothing about asian foods.
Honestly I find it so disrespectful when these famous chefs/bloggers bastardise food from other cultures instead of bothering to watch a single video to learn the authentic recipe of a dish from another culture. I'll never understand why they get to be on prime time television cooking garbage instead of a knowledgeable chef who treats these dishes with the respect they deserve.
Yacine Because they put on a good happy show for vapid people who don't really care about what is said as long as it passes the time. Welcome to the world.
@@silverapples75 damn, didn't realize people who were infirm or feeble of mind don't deserve respect. Just goes to show what I know about disabled people, I guess.
As a Vietnamese person, this was really hard to watch. Things I ate from 2011 came up hard and fast. I cried so much it flooded China. This was the most disrespectful thing I ever saw. Pho is our dish, you can’t ruin it by throwing and doing whatever you want to it.
I showed my mom this video, she legit got mad, and told me that if she ever saw me cook pho like this, even though I watched her cook it a thousand times, she beat me....
I wanted to make pho after watching this show, so I started cooking. I realized I didn’t have normal beef so I used ground beef, and I didn’t have a wok so I just used a frying pan, and I didn’t have broth so I just used ketchup, and I didn’t have noodles so I just used some buns. It was delicious! I love this traditional dish.
@@rishikagupta6061 This lady didn't show us how she made the broth, though. At least with Jamie, he shows us his process of fucking up so we can pinpoint what he did wrong and be grateful there's no rat poison in it at the very least. With her soup, it could be legit horse piss for all we know.
Other Uncle Roger's reviews, I could get over the disrepresented cooking, but this one just hit where it hurts. Too many times when I was young bring my food to school, the kids would say the same ignorant thing this woman said, "fish sauce smelled horrible" "shrimp paste is disgusting". I stopped bring food to school ever since. It took years for me to appreciate my food publicly again. Fish sauce and shrimp paste are very essential to Thai dishes and when I got those comment, it's almost like I was personally attacked. I appreciate my food more now since every western food is pale in comparison with Thai food. Whoever run those British cookshows, at least have cultures consultant or something. You already fucked up the whole world, at least do one thing right.
I am just gonna say as white American, fish sause and shrimp paste smell odd but no weirder then a dish made with sea food? So I don't understand people issue with your food. I would actually come over curious to find out what it is then judge you for it! genuine question though, where can you buy the traditional shrimp paste and fish sause stuff I buy is just gross and I get told isn't "correct"
It's all about consensus. They all want to agree together. On something, on ANYTHING. So they puke out this pedestrian low brow kindergarten shit so that they can all sit there and rub each other tummies and feel good together. That is literally all it is. Unanimity at any cost. I can *guarantee* you that when someone pulls some thinly veiled racist joke in the lunch room they all laugh. Because it's sticking together that matters. At any cost.
As Uncle Roger claimed that the beef in Phở must be raw and cooked with pouring broth, that is not quite true. There are at least 4 ways to cook beef for Phở in Vietnam. 1) Tái (Rare): Raw, thinly sliced, or even hashed. Cooked by pouring broth or sometimes, quickly boiled within the broth in the pot for a few seconds. 2) Chín (Welldone): Cooked as a whole big piece of beef inside the broth from the beginning to bring flavor to it. When to be served in a bowl, it will be sliced thinly as well. Its variants include Nạm, and Gầu, depending on the amount of fat in the beef. 3) Tái lăn (Stir-fried): Thin slice of beef, stir-fried, maybe with onion, put on top in a bowl of Phở. 4) Sốt vang (Bordelaise soup): Originated from France but kinda modified when Vietnamese make it. It is a pretty complicated soup made from beef, wine, curry, potatoes, and carrots. They use both the soup and the beef of it with Phở. With or without regular broth. Despite all those types, there is no shitty version of it using beefsteak.
Thanks for the insight! I think uncle was just trying to diss her method, he probably knows all that too cuz he does a ton of research before each episode.
@@aborda6044 I actually care more about Uncle Roger's upcoming Phở video. If he's only gonna make Phở Tái (Rare), it will be kinda boring. He should do at least Phở Tái Chín (Rare + Welldone), almost every Phở restaurant in Vietnam serves both types.
I'm not even Asian and I feel insulted by all the self-proclaimed "chefs" taking Asian food names and then making some random shit that has very little to do with what the actual dish is supposed to be. They could at least be decent and say "today we're going to be making a dish inspired by Pho" instead of claiming they're actually making Pho. I would lose my shit if some idiot "chef" on some TV show told they're making Karelian pasties today, and then continue by replacing rye with wheat or "you can use any other grain you like" and replacing the rice porridge filling with some goop made of beans. I don't believe in cultural appropriation, I think it's great if you love some thing from another culture and want to embrace it and do that or wear that or whatever if you do it in a respectful manner. Like sauna for example. That's a Finnish thing, you don't see Finns crying over people from other countries going to sauna. You might see Finns complaining about saunas when people use them wrong or in a disrespectful way. If someone wants to wear a traditional Finnish suit or headgear or whatever, I think that's great. You're raising awareness of our culture and that's all fine and dandy. You're not stealing our culture, you're embracing it. But taking some specific traditional food from some other culture and completely defacing it and saying you can use whatever ingredients you like and then preparing it completely wrong is just insulting. Foods have recipes. You're supposed to use specific ingredients and cook them in a specific way to make that food. If you make it from different ingredients or prepare it in a different way, then it is not that food and you shouldn't call it that. If I had a cooking show and said "today we're making traditional Italian pizza" and then took a tortilla and slapped some tofu and vegetarian "cheese" on it and threw it in an oven for two minutes while talking about how I love Italian cooking and how good this pizza is, people would go mental and call me a complete hack. But now as the general public aren't that aware of what Pho is supposed to be like, they don't know how badly that TV "chef" messed it up and actually think that's how you make Pho.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Hit the nail on the head my friend. I don't mind it so much if foreigners say they were inspired by a traditional dish or substitute one or two ingredients so they can personalize it and be creative. But they lose all that when they claim "this is the traditional way" when they're so off the mark. Don't get me wrong, I hate the other side of it where we gatekeep our culture so much that people say "You can't do that because you're not us," but if they take the time to learn, appreciate and respect the culture behind it then there should be no problem.
I remember once going to a camp where we were promised a meal with falafel in it by a chef that was allegedly skilled with vegan food. My group had specifically asked for that dietary restriction. We weren't expecting anything as good as in our home country of Egypt, given that western falafel typically has more levantine influence. What we got, however, was so bad we couldn't even begin calling it as anything but chickpea mash in English. It didn't even have the crunchy brown coat from deep frying to hide its yellow disappointment, and was, if I remember correctly, served something like steak. It turned out this was the first time the chef ever cooked vegan, as he said himself. Falafel is meant to be a sandwich body, deep fried and, preferably, served with tahini in flat bread and, even better, a salad wrap. The 'falafel' stuff we were served couldn't even pass for failed middle-eastern cuisine, becoming an article of ridicule ever since. One quick look for falafel, even on UA-cam or google images, could've saved so much agony. All I ask is for people to actually look up what they are name-calling is supposed to be, so we at least get the essence right the first time in an edible package. I don't even care especially deeply about exact ingredients so long as natives can understand certain replacements (ex: Egyptians use a bean base in falafel, or "ta'meya" as we call it, rather the more common base of chickpeas. In fact, I was surprised to know how long my mom made her falafel with chickpeas here, even knowing that they were easier to find.)
Fun fact: this is also the recipe for British Ramen, British ramyeon, British hu tieu, British soba, British upon, British kuy teav... etc. In other words, as far as British are concerned any Asian noodle dish is made by putting any protein in any soup with any additives, IT DOESN'T MATTER
The best thing about uncle Roger apart from his humor is, that with him Asian cuisine isn't just Chinese but all of Asia. His knowledge about Asian food be it Indian, Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, etc. is mind blowing.
Nigel is Malaysian but has mentioned in interviews that he actually does a lot of food research and contacts chefs from those countries before reviewing any dishes, so he has a lot of knowledge on all these different Asian cuisines 😊 It’s ironic a comedian does more recipes research than chefs who cook the dishes 🤦♀️
@@Almandeen you mean an Asian doing his homework? :P Lol jkjk. Tbh, hats off to him and his crew for actually putting in time to do the research. There was that butter chicken vid where he said something was wrong but amended it in the edits.
she needs to be cautious calling her soup "Pho" i remember another American food blogger who got cought in a shat storm by doing so. "Pho" is national dish vietnamese people are even fighting each other for when it comes to authenticity of each version. I must say she is quite courageous putting this on open air TV :D
It’s heartbreaking when seeing a chef without any respect for my culture. She literally puts anything she wants into it and thinks that doesn't matter. And the fish sauce, I know it is smelly but it’s something we eat almost everyday, don’t use the word “terrible”!
Totally agree! Wrong recipe, terrible attitude as a chef (who said "you can put whatever you like", "cook all noodles with same time", "just put it in, doesn't matter) and bullshit chitchat and it was on National British show! I felt really annoying watching this "chef" cooking.
Its crazy, I'd never think I would get so offended by a statement, but I got proved wrong when she said every noodle takes the same amount of time to cook
I feel like it needs to be said that, yes... you can use whatever you want and make the dish she's making in ten minutes, and it's probably tasty enough. But don't say you're making pho when you aren't.
Funniest Uncle Roger, yet. I love your reasoned and knowledgeable critique. Calling bullshit on ignorant and lazy public work is a valuable community service. You may not be a chef or Vietnamese but your hard-work and research truly makes your work shine.
9:06 I'm Italian and hearing her noodle cook time was heartbreaking. She managed to offend ALL Asians and Italians with one sentence. This should be called, How to fuck up every noodle around the world while killing Pho.
I used to work for a company that made a pho bowl for the grocery stores. When I was in the taste testing group, I told them the broth was way too dark, ramen noodles was incorrect and there aren’t supposed to be mushrooms in it. The chef was annoyed with me. That product was discontinued in 2 months. I wonder why….
Yeah the least she could’ve done is show like a clip of what she put in it or at least tell us what she put in it, cause I understand that no cooking show segment like this is going to fully wait hours for the broth to cook, but tbh she messed up the bit she showed us so I shudder to think what is in that broth 😭
there is a saying among people who know food. You judge a cook by their soup. Good soup/broth takes time effort and patience. too many see it as a quick fast thing to throw together.
this woman is trying to make the pho “easier” and “more accessible” to the people without proper ingredients but ended up offending the entire Vietnamese population.
As a Vietnamese, “ What the heck is that, she killed our traditional dish, she killed the steak, noodle and the broth, my ancestors cried, my parent cried, I cried, every Vietnamese cried too
Msg makes food taste better and Uncle Roger makes UA-cam better..I love all your programs.Uncle Roger when will you do a comedy show in Vancouver Canada???

I genuinely felt offended watching this, even more than when watching Jamie Olive Oil.

It would be like if I said, "Fish and chips are so easy to make, but you don't have to use fish, you can even use beef. And you don't have to fry your potatoes, you can just steam them." or "Scones are super easy, you don't even need to use flour, just use whatever crap you have around the house, even tofu will work."

please tell me it's not common practice to oil your meat like that in Ireland. Like I can forgive her for making a shitty pho but who does that to the meat before you sear it? Surely the oil goes into the pan and the meat goes in dry with only seasoning on it right? Like oiling the meat isn't a thing in Ireland is it?
IRA is the second worst thing to come out of Ireland
This is kinda off topic but what are common dishes in Ireland?
To her defense doe: Uncle Roger made a mistake at the beginning of the video. She clearly said "foe" instead of "pho", clearly meaning she´d rather trash it than eat it.
No no, they called her British. Let's leave it at that lol

@hplvgaming3939 I have been to Vietnam several times. The local French food is not authentic, the pizza is not authentic, the Thai food is not authentic, etc etc etc. And this is totally fine. People will always adapt. Pho itself is an adaptation of Chinese soup with a twist of French influences. New recipes are made by adapting old ones. My advice would be to stop taking your sacred Pho so seriously, and if you don't like it, don't eat it. Simple. That is what I do when I am abroad, and I see the weird adaptations of my own country's dishes.
As a representative of people from Irish heritage, I've seen this woman cook Irish food also, don't worry, she makes my ancestors cry also , she did horrible things to Irish stew, Colcannon and other Irish foods so I'm not greatly surprised that she fucked up Pho so badly (one of my favourite Asian foods along with Nasi Lemak and Nasi goreng).
The problem is "chefs" like this lady are trying to take old world recipes that take hours to make and try to change them into something you can make in 15 minutes...it really insults the dish.

Must be good friends with Jaime olive oil 🤭
@@larryc1616 lol she must be
And claim that it's an Asian food dish....
My only issue is calling it Pho…
she can't cook, she's all over the place. i'm surprised she got a spot on tv. i think the hosts could kind of tell
"I'll teach you how to do pho. Do whatever you want and call it pho."
😆😆
As a fellow Vietnamese who's parents used to own a pho shop, this kills me
"You can use any kind of noodles you want." 😭😭 In Vietnam it's called "pho" because that's the name of the actual noodle, like GIRLLL
It like saying: when I make fired chicken I often use pork chop instead since they are both meat and to fry it I put it in the smoker since they are both a means of cooking meat.
It’s like making spaghetti and meatballs with linguini and still calling it “spaghetti”
yeah, Ik this is depressing. ASIAN FUSION, Vietnamese with depression.
粉
They're treating Pho like it's fried rice (where you do have a lot more degrees if freedom), but even with fried rice, there are rules. I can't put rice in the oven, nor can I add buffalo wing sauce or ketchup or I don't know, fucking Dijon mustard. There's a certain WAY to make these things, certain things you can use, not use, and so on. This "anything goes" mentality is really really dumb. I don't doubt that Pho is different depending on who's mama is making it, but they just just say "It's a free for all!!!! Use whatever you'd like!!!!"
so basically, pho for her is whatever you have at home. Any meat you want, any noodles you have and any garnish you like.
Doesn't even have to be meat!
OH reminds me. I had Fried Pho yesterday. With rice. And egg. And cooked in a wok. Quite nice.
You could make a shepards pie and call it pho in her book 😂🤣
@@Silvrstarr the fawk 💀
@@aaatds fried pho is a real thing, quite delicious and is quite popular in vietnam as well
The word PHỞ literally translates to the specific type of noodle used, BÁNH PHỞ. So, you really can't use another noodle and call it PHỞ. It's like putting honey and butter on bread and calling it a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
.. or making a spaghetti, but using macaroni.
Or like what Jaime Oliver did. Make ramen with soba noodles.
she probably did that too
Absolutely correct. Its called Phở because that kind of noodle is Phở, it's special. What if you use chinese noodle to make spaghetti and call it spaghetti. Bullshit
Oh .. so that isn't a peanut butter and jelly sandwish:0....

As a Vietnamese, I appreciate that people are spreading our national dish worldwide. I'm offended by this woman insulting our national dish on British national TV, and for the host who said fish sauce smell "horrible", is disrespectful. Pho is our comfort food, it doesn't take 10 mins to make and you don't just throw in whatever you want. This woman has no shame in saying all noodles cook the same time, and claims she's a chef. Such a disgrace.
I make pho from Raman Noodles, fish sauce, hoison, ginger, onions and jalapeños slices. It's not pho, but it's really good Raman!!! lol the closest Asian market to me is over an hour away. 😢
Fish sauce smells like shit. You can disagree but It ain't disrespectful to say so. Relax a bit
The BBC doesn't employ real chefs. They employ actors nothing more.
The host literally said 6:28 "Fish sauce is nice in the dish. But without being in the dish, smell horrible". I don't think anybody get offended by that.
Edit : i put the timeline so u can click it.
It’s not disrespectful to say fish sauce smells bad. Don’t be ridiculous. They even said that it's nice in dishes but that the smell on its own was awful...
at this point she’s not even just insulting the dish, she’s completely disregarding so many basic knowledge and common sense about cooking, which makes me wonder how she could even go on the show in the first place
The show is cringeworthy ngl
She added Salt and Pepper something they had never seen before, after that they had to get her on the show.
Her confidence. She convinced them that she is a chef.
UK food is terrible , this is just mildly better so then think they are great cooks.
her saying every noodle takes the same time too cook and the way she cooks her Pho meat is the most cursed thing ever
As an Irish person, I can tell you we are naturally allergic to food. During the potato famine we chose to die instead of learning how to fish and make sashimi.
Hahaha made me laugh so hard
Lololkl😂😂😂
I can tell.
Uncle Roger, you should make a video on how to make a traditional full English breakfast, except…
1. Change out eggs for egg whites only because of cholesterol.
2. Change meat to Canadian Bacon.
3. Use chickpeas because they’re trendy.
Then call it a Traditional Full English Breakfast out of spite. See how they like it 😂
Don't forget to sub out the black pudding Jimmy John's sausage patties and salsa instead of grilled tomatoes

Swap out the tea/coffee for spinach juice
I'm a white boy from Canada. This has made me visibly upset. Not only she wouldn't know pho if she drowned in it, she also kept giving bad information. She litterally said that all noodles take the same time to cook!
What is wrong with her? How did she manage to convince people she could be trusted with anything more complicated than a toaster let alone be some tv chef?
Right??? I'm a corn-fed Kansan, I've only had pho once in my life, and this made me want to cry

You can't stop ignorant white folks from making fusion cookbooks, it's the lynchpin of the cookbook economy.
This is why we need many more gatekeepers of colour in media. So many white people think this is perfectly ok. Everything belongs to them. Even other people's culture.

You shouldn't really take offense at that part. She's just trying to give options for people who may not have access to certain types of ingredients (and also probably keep it quick for the show). It is offensive that they claimed it was "Pho" instead of "Pho-inspired" given everything she did "wrong".

As Uncle Roger claimed that the beef in Phở must be raw and cooked with pouring broth, that is not quite true. There are at least 4 ways to cook beef for Phở in Vietnam.
1) Tái (Rare): Raw, thinly sliced, or even hashed. Cooked by pouring broth or sometimes, quickly boiled within the broth in the pot for a few seconds.
2) Chín (Welldone): Cooked as a whole big piece of beef inside the broth from the beginning to bring flavor to it. When to be served in a bowl, it will be sliced thinly as well. Its variants include Nạm, and Gầu, depending on the amount of fat in the beef.
3) Tái lăn (Stir-fried): Thin slice of beef, stir-fried, maybe with onion, put on top in a bowl of Phở.
4) Sốt vang (Bordelaise soup): Originated from France but kinda modified when Vietnamese make it. It is a pretty complicated soup made from beef, wine, curry, potatoes, and carrots. They use both the soup and the beef of it with Phở. With or without regular broth.
Despite all those types, there is no shitty version of it using beefsteak.
Thanks for the insight! I think uncle was just trying to diss her method, he probably knows all that too cuz he does a ton of research before each episode.
Thanks for the advice and insight to it
This info isgood can you email it to this lady
@@aborda6044 I actually care more about Uncle Roger's upcoming Phở video. If he's only gonna make Phở Tái (Rare), it will be kinda boring. He should do at least Phở Tái Chín (Rare + Welldone), almost every Phở restaurant in Vietnam serves both types.
yes with onion absolutely✨
I'm not even Asian and I feel insulted by all the self-proclaimed "chefs" taking Asian food names and then making some random shit that has very little to do with what the actual dish is supposed to be. They could at least be decent and say "today we're going to be making a dish inspired by Pho" instead of claiming they're actually making Pho.
I would lose my shit if some idiot "chef" on some TV show told they're making Karelian pasties today, and then continue by replacing rye with wheat or "you can use any other grain you like" and replacing the rice porridge filling with some goop made of beans.
I don't believe in cultural appropriation, I think it's great if you love some thing from another culture and want to embrace it and do that or wear that or whatever if you do it in a respectful manner. Like sauna for example. That's a Finnish thing, you don't see Finns crying over people from other countries going to sauna. You might see Finns complaining about saunas when people use them wrong or in a disrespectful way. If someone wants to wear a traditional Finnish suit or headgear or whatever, I think that's great. You're raising awareness of our culture and that's all fine and dandy. You're not stealing our culture, you're embracing it.
But taking some specific traditional food from some other culture and completely defacing it and saying you can use whatever ingredients you like and then preparing it completely wrong is just insulting. Foods have recipes. You're supposed to use specific ingredients and cook them in a specific way to make that food. If you make it from different ingredients or prepare it in a different way, then it is not that food and you shouldn't call it that.
If I had a cooking show and said "today we're making traditional Italian pizza" and then took a tortilla and slapped some tofu and vegetarian "cheese" on it and threw it in an oven for two minutes while talking about how I love Italian cooking and how good this pizza is, people would go mental and call me a complete hack. But now as the general public aren't that aware of what Pho is supposed to be like, they don't know how badly that TV "chef" messed it up and actually think that's how you make Pho.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Hit the nail on the head my friend.
I don't mind it so much if foreigners say they were inspired by a traditional dish or substitute one or two ingredients so they can personalize it and be creative. But they lose all that when they claim "this is the traditional way" when they're so off the mark.
Don't get me wrong, I hate the other side of it where we gatekeep our culture so much that people say "You can't do that because you're not us," but if they take the time to learn, appreciate and respect the culture behind it then there should be no problem.

I remember once going to a camp where we were promised a meal with falafel in it by a chef that was allegedly skilled with vegan food. My group had specifically asked for that dietary restriction. We weren't expecting anything as good as in our home country of Egypt, given that western falafel typically has more levantine influence. What we got, however, was so bad we couldn't even begin calling it as anything but chickpea mash in English. It didn't even have the crunchy brown coat from deep frying to hide its yellow disappointment, and was, if I remember correctly, served something like steak. It turned out this was the first time the chef ever cooked vegan, as he said himself. Falafel is meant to be a sandwich body, deep fried and, preferably, served with tahini in flat bread and, even better, a salad wrap. The 'falafel' stuff we were served couldn't even pass for failed middle-eastern cuisine, becoming an article of ridicule ever since. One quick look for falafel, even on UA-cam or google images, could've saved so much agony. All I ask is for people to actually look up what they are name-calling is supposed to be, so we at least get the essence right the first time in an edible package. I don't even care especially deeply about exact ingredients so long as natives can understand certain replacements (ex: Egyptians use a bean base in falafel, or "ta'meya" as we call it, rather the more common base of chickpeas. In fact, I was surprised to know how long my mom made her falafel with chickpeas here, even knowing that they were easier to find.)
worst pho, she didn't even show us how to make the broth, she probably bought premade broth
Fun fact: this is also the recipe for British Ramen, British ramyeon, British hu tieu, British soba, British upon, British kuy teav... etc. In other words, as far as British are concerned any Asian noodle dish is made by putting any protein in any soup with any additives, IT DOESN'T MATTER
I can't believe she said she would use vermicelli for pho like what the actual fuck lady. She probably does make Ramen with an Italian pasta 🤣
Basically, any noodle + any vegetable + any meat = ramen
maybe we should just count ourselves lucky that they don't put gravy and beans on it 😅
@Mr. Troll TT my exact reaction as well
@@scarlett8782 oh that tastes horrible
The best thing about uncle Roger apart from his humor is, that with him Asian cuisine isn't just Chinese but all of Asia.
His knowledge about Asian food be it Indian, Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, etc. is mind blowing.
Nigel is Malaysian but has mentioned in interviews that he actually does a lot of food research and contacts chefs from those countries before reviewing any dishes, so he has a lot of knowledge on all these different Asian cuisines 😊
It’s ironic a comedian does more recipes research than chefs who cook the dishes 🤦♀️
He hires people to help with the research.
To a degree though
@@Almandeen you mean an Asian doing his homework? :P Lol jkjk.
Tbh, hats off to him and his crew for actually putting in time to do the research. There was that butter chicken vid where he said something was wrong but amended it in the edits.
although Pho was invented by Chinese migrants. lmfao
she needs to be cautious calling her soup "Pho" i remember another American food blogger who got cought in a shat storm by doing so. "Pho" is national dish vietnamese people are even fighting each other for when it comes to authenticity of each version. I must say she is quite courageous putting this on open air TV :D
You don’t need to look far, remember Jamie Oliver cooking jollof rice . Africans where super pissed
She needs to be cautious calling what she’s doing “cooking”
@@fallenspherell8178 true :D
@@oyinbobaker dont even mention Jamie Oliver :D
@@fallenspherell8178 It can generously be described as "heating food"
5:50 As a Vietnamese,that is not the beef in pho anymore.
As someone with a Vietnamese grandmother, I agree. This goes so much against how someone would usually make pho that it’s laughable
" If your Pho has crunch, then you need to be punched"
-Uncle Roger
three bots? wtf
@@llkurofoxll1013 literally 😂
the way shes so confident saying all noodles have same time to cook 💀
Or that she's making Pho, yet a lot of what she says boil down to "well, just shove whatever you have in there!"
Even non asian noodles, like different types of pastas take different times to cook.
😂
If a white Liberal said it it’s the way it is
Instant Noodles on Pho.
It’s heartbreaking when seeing a chef without any respect for my culture. She literally puts anything she wants into it and thinks that doesn't matter. And the fish sauce, I know it is smelly but it’s something we eat almost everyday, don’t use the word “terrible”!
White people
Totally agree! Wrong recipe, terrible attitude as a chef (who said "you can put whatever you like", "cook all noodles with same time", "just put it in, doesn't matter) and bullshit chitchat and it was on National British show! I felt really annoying watching this "chef" cooking.
Forget about it , white people will eat something have good smell , not good taste just like the shrimp paste
That's the typical Anglo-Saxon arrogance-ignorance
So white !
Its crazy, I'd never think I would get so offended by a statement, but I got proved wrong when she said every noodle takes the same amount of time to cook
thats pho-ked up
Ba dum tss
Aint no way yt promoting this comment 💀💀💀
Underated comment asl bro 😂😂😂
🚪👈 this way
Paired with 1:56
I feel like it needs to be said that, yes... you can use whatever you want and make the dish she's making in ten minutes, and it's probably tasty enough. But don't say you're making pho when you aren't.
Takes 10 mins to make the Pho because the broth was probably just a couple stock cubes
Upload making of Pho on MorePatterrz please
PATTERRZ? YOU WATCH UNCLE ROGER? FUIYOHHHH

Finally it's here YES
Huh, fancy seeing you here. I knew you were of culture. I like your videos!
knorr
I’m an American, so I imagine her saying that ‘any noodle can go in pho’ is equivalent to saying ‘any fruit can go in apple pie.’
“Can we please remove the word any from asian cooking”
Uncle roger deserves Noble Prize for this quote
@@abdulrahimroslan1771 Nobel* prize ;)
Funniest Uncle Roger, yet. I love your reasoned and knowledgeable critique. Calling bullshit on ignorant and lazy public work is a valuable community service. You may not be a chef or Vietnamese but your hard-work and research truly makes your work shine.
He may not be Uncle Roger either 😉😉😉.
Yes, cannot agree more!

I'm Italian and hearing her noodle cook time was heartbreaking. She managed to offend ALL Asians and Italians with one sentence. This should be called,
How to fuck up every noodle around the world while killing Pho.
shes a killer of all noodles and pho
My first thought exactly!
Pasta has its heaven designated sauces, too. Don’t mix those shapes up!
As someone who eats food, I'm offended
Uncle is genuinely educational as well as entertaining
As a Vietnamese, watching this hurts more than when mom hits me with a broom.
You mean strong wooden stick?
We all know it a lie my friend
Hahaha seriously. I knew it was gna bad when she started it off saying “FO”
Chopsticks hurt like hell, the thinner the more hurt.
Where is the belt?
I used to work for a company that made a pho bowl for the grocery stores. When I was in the taste testing group, I told them the broth was way too dark, ramen noodles was incorrect and there aren’t supposed to be mushrooms in it. The chef was annoyed with me. That product was discontinued in 2 months. I wonder why….
you tried but some people need to learn the hard way.🙂
It suck to be right all the time.... so underappreeeciated ... I know how you feel 🤣🤣
I'm stunned. The broth is the most laborious and complicated part of the dish...
Yeah the least she could’ve done is show like a clip of what she put in it or at least tell us what she put in it, cause I understand that no cooking show segment like this is going to fully wait hours for the broth to cook, but tbh she messed up the bit she showed us so I shudder to think what is in that broth 😭
They can just buy some instal pho. Their stock is far better than this joke!
@@lilypad2714 supposedly she used can broth, or box broth whatever, she definitely never cook any real broth.
The color of the broth does not look right. Pho broth look´s different. So it was ok to not show how she cook it ^^
there is a saying among people who know food. You judge a cook by their soup. Good soup/broth takes time effort and patience. too many see it as a quick fast thing to throw together.
This is so funny I'm crying 😭😭 I can't believe I only just found this channel.
this woman is trying to make the pho “easier” and “more accessible” to the people without proper ingredients but ended up offending the entire Vietnamese population.
As an Italian: "First Time?"
@Lang Tổng Mấy ông tước bên đó còn k bt là dùng phở gói đúng không nx ;-;
@Lang Tổng AHHAAHAHAH and more accurate :D
yeah... pretty much.

I know his videos are funny, but honestly I respect him so much for defending cultures food and educating others.
Not only that, but I feel like actually learn about cooking from watching his vid, err, vee-gee-ohs.

As a Vietnamese, “ What the heck is that, she killed our traditional dish, she killed the steak, noodle and the broth, my ancestors cried, my parent cried, I cried, every Vietnamese cried too
