Soy sauce tip of the day:
Look for the one with the most protein in it. Often what's called soy sauce ist just 50% soy sauce and 50% salted water.
Trust me, you'll be blown away by how little good soy sauce you need for fried rice and stuff like that. Way less salty, way more umami.
thank you for this info, i'll be on the lookout for em
got some dark soy sauce 3~5 drops and a whole pan worth of food is seasoned well with it
I love how he doesn't seem to actually know what he's doing himself, just goes with the flow + it turns out great
Do efd r

Hey I’m a seat of the pants cook too. Never yet had to give my improvised food to the doggo.
I like to think I have experience in cooking on a budget; but my comfort zone is very domestic North Indian food, and now that I'll be away from India for two years for grad school, I'm a little intimidated by having to figure how to cook without breaking the bank in a situation where ingredients that I'm used to are either unavailable or expensive. Your channel's helped me a lot with that one anxiety (only about twenty million others to go!), so thanks a bunch for doing what you do. I already have grocery lists planned around your recipe videos that I have flagged and saved.
You should make a channel yourself with North Indidan comfort food on a budget! I'll subscribe :)
You got this
What's a couple dishes you'd recommend from North India that I could try to make?
@@abhilasha6503 Excellent, thank you! I'll give that a go. Potato sabji is speaking to me as an irishman, I'll go with that
I am in the exact same situation
This is exactly what I've been looking for. Keep making videos like this!
Thanks so much! I will
Taste Chart
Breakfast: not ass
Lunch: not cat food
Dinner: not a good restaurant
💖
"top it off with honey so it doesn't taste like ass" I'd buy your cookbook if you wrote one
It happened!)
Add the yogurt last, so you don't kill the probiotic bacteria. 👍❤
Once the oatmeal is cooked? Regardless, good to know!
nice tip
This is my favourite video of yours. The spontaneity doesn't feel forced or overdone with jokes, and it's just so relatable, love it. Tremendously useful content for people on a budget.
Brother this is honestly one of the most helpful content I've stumbled upon to date for cheap and well tasting cooking. What's the cooktop you use in all this?
❤️
Looks like the IKEA cooktop, it's not expensive at all
@@letsKWOOWK bro forgot to answer the question
you had me at "that looks like something out of a restaurant, not a good restaurant but a restaurant nonetheless" 🤣
motherless
Chickpea curry with homemade pita/flatbread (flour, salt, yeast, about 60% hydration) and some greek yogurt to add on top. Insanely good and cheap, I like to skip rice entirely because I'm addicted to scooping curry up with bread. Curry can be as simple as come canned tomatoes, ginger, carlic and onion. Ofc you also need spices.
Hummus and this curry are my staples because I just like chickpeas.
You the man! Glad I found this channel.. keep making simple, quick recipes because i hate standing in the kitchen for hours.
I discovered you on instagram and I just love your videos. The recipes all look so great and super super easy to make! For students it's great too because the budget is not too high! I enjoy a lot watching your videos and I must say I really appreciate that you speak quite slowly (which is super cool for a Frenchy like me haha) ! Keep doing that :D
Inlfation hit really hard on these kind of videos. All this stuff would now come to 3-4€ here where i live xx. All of these ingrediatns got so much expensive, it's crazy. But even so, this was really helpfull.
Thanks for your work. My wife and I have been implementing trying new dishes from around the world due to your channel. It has made my life more wholesome with variety and it has been as we have been getting our kids involved in the process
Frugal chef after my own heart! By the way rice and peas is called rizsli bizsli here in Hungary. Love it! Cooking for yourself with simple ingredients is not only gratifying, but cost effective and most times super tasty. Thanks for posting and good luck!
Amazing! In northern Italy (Veneto) it's called risi e bisi. I wonder if there's any linguistic influence
@@mauro6847 I'm sure there is!
in austria it's called risi bisi so also really similar!
I'd love more £1 - ish style videos like this! I have all of those ingredients all ready, for once!
This video is so so good! I just found you and I’m gonna binge all your videos lol
tip from a costa rican: put the dough on top of a clean cloth rag. make sure to place it to the side of the cloth so you can put the other side on top of it (like a quesadilla) and start slapping it with your palm while moving the whole thing in a circle with the other hand. Its called tortillas palmeadas and itll be much raounder
Recipe from Lunch for the Tortillas should be:
500 gr Flour
320 ml Water
60 ml Oil
Btw love your videos❤
That seems a bit much for two tortilla's.
Looks more like a recipe for ten tortilla's
Thank you so much
This really helps me as a student!
2023 here. Eggs are now almost $1 each. $6.99 per dozen is the cheapest I see, I’ve actually seen $11.99/dozen (for brown eggs).
My dude, these videos are amazing!
Thanks a ton!
Wow...watching you gave me hope for my growing son. Now, I'll worry less; you've proved he'll be fine. Thank you, keep up good work.
6:00 "deposit into a bowl" *tosses the entire tuna can into the bowl* extra minerals, man
Edit: also I just started college this year & your videos have been really helpful! You've got lots of affordable, doable recipes and a great sense of humor. Thank you so much :)
I love watching someone that shares my passion for frozen blueberries and peas
thanks for the recipes, i find it really helpful as a student
The two eggs would cost about a dollar here, so It'd be a bit more expensive for me, but amazing video, thank you
wow, that's some high cost of living
Right now a dozen eggs at my store costs $3 (US) ... and that's factory farm eggs, not organic or anything. That would make 2 eggs $0.50 alone. A 12-16 oz can of veggies of any kind would be $0.75 at least. A 5lb bag of plain white flour (store brand) is $2.12. A 2lb bag of brown rice is $1.37. A 3lb package of oats is about $4. Et cetera. Short of going to a food pantry or dumpster diving, I'm not eating all of the recipes in this video for $1 a day.
Damn, $6 for a dozen eggs? That's crazy, it's less than $2 where I'm at
Awesome for these times! Please do another
The best one yet!
Shakshuka is an amazing option for a cooking on a budget. It really got me through my student days'
Yum! I personally go heavy on the oregano and top it off with cheese 😋
Super healthy and can be made rather low calorie too.
bro you are hilarious and helpful. W channel
I love how much effort went in this video just to make it rly cheap!
Can't get enough of this content... 👉🏻👈🏻
Echt top dat je uit NL komt, ik heb precies dezelfde spullen staan van de Aldi hahaha
The tortilla dough is basically the same recipe as a scallion pancake dough, roll your dough balls into snakes, cover them in oil and scallions roll the snakes into a disk, flatten your disks and you have yourself scallion pancakes the way my roommate used to make them. I sometimes make them with herbs instead of scallions and dip them into soup.
Eyy, worker at Aldi here. I’ve always shopped at Albert Heijn, so seeing the difference in price really surprised me!
hysterical and truthful and imformative
All these meals look fabulous ❤
your channel is so underratted!
Thanks lady gaga
I love your videos, Can you make one with lentils instead of peas? it's one of my cheap healthy meals
Just found this video, and loved it! Just moved out on my own to pursue UNI, so it works out well for me! Maybe you could do an update video, with high-protein in focus? :D
The lunch and dinner are actually pretty reasonable for protein. Add a scoop of whey protein to the oats, which is super cheap, and you would have 30+ grams per meal.
I am inspired to cook up something today…. This is what i need
I have seen struggle meals that fail to be as good as these masterpieces!
Bro I loved this video so funny much better than the new ones 😂😂
Suuuuper ideea💪🥰
Vietnamese street food breakfast: 2 sunny side eggs, toasted French bread, sriracha and soy sauce (add some f green onions if you’re feeling fancy). 😊
This is my fav cooking show now :p
The Dutch-ness is just oozing out of this video :D
Heej Kevin...we need more cheap recepices....i hope you love Holland...and your Dutch girl 😍😍😍😍
You’re a hero
Oke wow hele handige video... Ik probeer op mn budget te letten en heb toevallig alles al in huis... HELD
I love your vids!
❤️
Love this
i love this guy
kwoowk u should try getting a rice cooker for cooking rice, it cooks it perfectly everytims
Yes! I cook quinoa in my rice cooker.
I'd love to do this but sadly in Canada the cheapest thing woild be around $5-6
Totia or chapapthi as we call it here in India, to get circle shape roll it, spin it around a bit, roll it spin it again. Repeat that and practice and you ll easily get a circular one. (Or there abouts). For youtube you can also use a steel circular tub or whatever to punch a circular tortia from your sorry excuse for a circular tortia for better presentation 😃
I am broke. I love this ❤
In the Netherlands you could also buy a piece of frozen salmon (around €3 for 250grams) en cook it yourself..
Boil
frozen tho.... its so much better fresh and healthier
The thing that I took away from this is that I need to buy chickpeas, peas and beans oh and something to substitute blueberries because they are so expensive here
Maybe forage berries go for local walks see what is about is blackberries, raspberry depending on time of year. You could also had jam
The ass comment was hilarious😂 I did not see that coming
Such high quality videos, I thought they'd be like 6
300-600k views at least. Keep up the good work chief.
"honey so it doesn't taste like ass" - Kwoowk
I love this guy
Cos/romaine lettuce grows easily and prolifically. You only take outer leaves and it keeps going! Cherry tomatoes- ditto! These can be blanched/frozen for later use.
Thanks for the great ideas, I love your recipes but I feel like my appetite is too big and I would eat way bigger portions throughout the day... I will still try them out and see how expensive would it be for me.
Hello Kristina
this is really inspirational for people who aren't that experienced with cooking. lovely stuff. wouldn't recommend buying cheap tuna tho, might be of questionable quality. all your cooking is really beautiful tho, idk how you manage to make it look so good. great job.
Actually, cheap tuna is often better "quality" from a nutritional perspective. Smaller fish, less mercury.
i really wanna live with this guy and eat everything he makes T-T
I highly recommend giving corn tortillas a shot. They are a lot easier to make
Awesome
The last dish could easily been a simple egg fried rice for basically the same cost, maybe cheaper. Overall, great content
Hello 🤗
Love those tortillas! I want to make some now. BTW tuna fishing kills dolphins, even the tuna brands that say it is "dolphin safe", so, yeah.
*Eats tuna anyways*
Still eating tuna kid
Damn - you weren't lying about a LOT of cinnamon in that oatmeal!
yeah thats true that healthy food dont have to be expansive unlees you want bulk, cuz that three dishes had maybe around 1800-2000 kcal which is not too much. i pay only for breakfast around 2 dollars so that is 60 dollars monthly and im living in poland so this is one tenth of my monthly earnings.
Love me some runny yolks-ie egg gravy!
"probably won't die" - KWOOWK
Thank you
you are my superman bro. I'm broke as hell and eat like shit.thanks a lot for the recipes.they are grate
What kind of pan are you using for the intro?
rinses rice because that always helps (i think). Truer words have never been spoken
"NOT CAT FOOD"
I'm DYING😭😭😭😭
Bro for totias try the recipe of Indian bread called Roti
You are hilarious 😂
Delicious
I like the ideas!
Unfortunately for me, this isn't nearly enough food for me to survive on for a day
De unde ai scos preturile astea man? Pentru ovaz de exemplu
W cooking ong
hi i dont cook oatmeal i just let it sit in water and it becomes soft and produce its own milk
pd ily
If you have extra money get corn tortillas or the ingredients to make them because they taste way better.
Sir...sir... you are aware that a cup in an American recipe is a standardized unit, not just any cup or scoop... right? We have specific measuring cups for cooking
9:08 egg on rice
3:04 berry porridge
Today I learnt that Tortillas are what we call ‘Roti’ in India. Because many people in other countries just buy them pre-made, I used to think it was something different. We've always made them by hand.
i wouldn't call that a tortilla. maybe a flour tortilla, but not what i think when i heard the word "tortilla"
@@mattlox3981 ya tortillas are made from maize, he just made flatbread
Tortillas are made from corn or wheat. Wheat tortillas come from Northern Mexico and are just as "traditional" as corn. I prefer corn and corn tend to be made in a healthier way, but neither is bad or non traditional.
Also, roti tends to be made from Whole grain flour and is usually a bit denser. Tortillas are thinner, usually from white flour and tend to have some fat added.
PLEASE START ADDING TIME STAMPS WITH INGREDIENT LIST IN DESCRIPTION WITH INSTRUCTIONS FOR THOSE ON THE GO
YUM
lives in netherlands and roasts netherlands breakfast
Now do the neutron style
An Aldi opened up near my house and I was blown away that I can get a whole week of groceries for £14. That includes chicken, veggies and some fruit.
Not down to the £1 a day, but I'll see if I can pull it off with some bulk ingredients that last more than 1 week.
My weekly shop is £20, its usually chicken thigh 2kg, 15 pack of eggs, greek yogurt, wholewheat bread, mixed frozen veggies, 1kg of oats, some cheese, tortillas and some fruit like tangerines. Per day thats around 1800 calories, i can easily bump that up with some oil.
@@bradturner7678 2kg of chicken thigh and all this extra stuff for 20£, wow. Here where i live the cheapest chicken i get is 7-9€ for 600g. And thats the factory farm stuff xx. Inflation hits hard here.
a cup should be 250mL for future reference, but it looks like being exact wasnt all that important today
I love your channel and I learned a lot western cooking here because I like food that is quick and tasty. But one thing I have to point out as an Asian the fried rice can be done a bit better and I am sure leave it like that you will be criticized by uncle roger, haha. Just kidding it's ok.
I don't want it to taste like a$$ , great - thanks!
