Thank you to all my niece and nephew

As promised, today Uncle Roger gonna make ramen

And I have my friend here James

He a ramen expert

He run okay ramen shop

I run a little ramen operation from Cardiff, Wales called matsudai ramen

In Wales?

In Wales

Who eat ramen in Wales?

A lot of people

Really?

Why? Is it not good enough for London is it

And do you have shop in Wales

No we have a prep kitchen, we sell meal kits and do pop-ups

You sell meal kit?

So the postman deliver ramen to people

What if they not home?

Postman gives to neighbor?

Neighbors gets good ramen

Neighbor steal your ramen, who want that haiya

Just open ramen shop, don't be pussy

Open ramen Shop

Niece and nephew smack the like button now

So nephew James can afford ramen shop one day

First we gonna make our ramen noodle

And as you can see we filming at empty restaurant

Also known as Jamie Italian

300 grams of wheat flour

Oh, nephew James are you fan of white powder?

Do you like it?

I can't say, my mum might see this

2.75 grams of salt

Why so specific?

Ramen can not just use feeling?

No, ramen is very specific

Science

Now we cut it up

This how Nigella Lawson make her ramen also

Now we mix them all together

Mix it with chopsticks

Uncle Roger

Got a mixer for you

Haiya why didn't you tell Uncle Roger sooner

I like to see you sweat

WWII is over, use technology

Ramen is very boring

Don't say that

I want people to watch video

Why use hand when you can use machine

Pour all the dough into plastic bag

Flatten the flour by stepping on it

This what auntie Helen do to my hope and dream

See, now it's nice and flat

We gonna leave it to rest for 30 minutes

Take your flatten noodle flour and put it through pasta machine

This is two-person job

But niece and nephew, Uncle Roger recomment you just buy ramen from shop

This too much work, nobody have time for this

Nephew James you married or you single?

Married

So this is your activity you do to get away from wife

So difficult

You a weak man

No no no this very difficult

Who need Peloton when you have pasta maker

What next

More rolling, haiya

More rolling haiya

Your ramen shop but you can't afford for better roller

Not yet

Haiya you're not doing well

See, Uncle Roger like my noodle like how I like my woman

Unattached

Now we start on the broth

This is chicken bone and this is pork bone

This is vegan's worst nightmare

Flavour

Vegan people, If you don't feel represented in Uncle Roger video

Remember these thing used to be vegan also

Now Uncle Roger gonna boil the pork bone and chicken bone

Correct?

Very correct

We using most pork bone, a bit of chicken bone

Because you're making a style of Tonkotsu ramen

And when the water boiling

You want to take the scum out

See, get all the brown scum out

I mean from the broth

Don't be racist

Put lid on and pressure cook it

Oh, that why it didn't cook

Your pressure cooker can sing also

Pressure cooker save time

We all know time is money

Now the broth almost ready

See, look at the color so nice and clean

Proper Tonkotsu broth should be as white as Yoga Retreat

Not like nephew nick dirty broth haiya

Now we add some aromatic into the broth

Like onion

And garlic

Garlic is Asian people favorite things

We treat garlic like how we treat our children

Now we let it reduce for an hour until it's rich and creamy

Look at this

So white and beautiful

Now we making tare

This is component of ramen Nigella forget to make

We want 360ml of light soy sauce

Approximate is ok with this

What? But you say it's science

Half science half art

But sometime you so anal

But sometime anything go

What the hell?

360ml of dark soy sauce

I just use feeling

Not too much feeling

100 grams of salt

And MSG?

At the end

At the end? Put now, Uncle Roger can't wait

1.44 liters of water

1.44

Ramen is the nerdiest food ever

So many number

Haiya

You're lazy

No

The true Asian way is to use feeling

Now we put this to boil correct

Now we boil it for an hour

1 hour?

1 hour

Haiya take so long

Nephew James, 1 hour because you use induction stove

If you use real fire, it will be 5 minutes

Stir the tare a bit

When tare done the boiling

Time for Uncle Roger favorite ingredient

The king of flavour

MSG fuiyoh!

This one just use feeling, correct?

Sort of, we usually use about 80 grams

Hiya 80 grams too little

That serving size for baby bird

I don't know how many gram this is

We just pour into our ancestors say it enough

Now time for the char sui pork belly

Look at this piece of meat

Fuiyoh, I see now why Nick like to spank this

This is quite satisfying

Can you choke potbelly also

Sorry children

You want to spank the potbelly

Roll it up and tie it

Haiya Making potbelly always turn uncle roger on

Do you get horny when you make potbelly nephew James

No?

No

Never

Sad life

Just roll it, 1 inch interval

Oh, 1 inch?

1 inch?

I think 1 inch is around this big, right

Uncle Roger have trouble knowing how big 1 inch is

Never had that problem in life

No?

No

After tying your pork

You want to boil it for around 19 minutes

Center of the pork should be about 95 degrees Celsius when it finishes

Haiya that too much detail

Niece and nephew don't care

If it look good to eat

When Potbelly finished boiling

You want to marinate in the tare

No white pork belly like Jamie Oliver

Correct, good char sui should have same color as Ariana Grande now

not Ariana Grande 10 years ago

Marinate for at least 4 hours and then you can chop

Fuiyoh look at this so nice

Don't eat when you cooking

Why not?

It's bad habits, bad habits

This is why auntie Helen left you

No

I always eat auntie Helen, what you talking about?

Chop some spring onion

Now we make ramen egg

Uncle Roger usually do 7 minutes that correct?

7 minutes is right, very good

Oh now the egg done

Take all the eggs out

And put in ice bath

Egg want to go spa holiday also

Time to peel egg

You want peel egg in water

Like you waterboarding the egg

He crack

Looks so nice

Beautiful

Let's see how to pro do it

Better don't fuck it up

Nobody will buy your meal kit

Fuiyoh that so fast

Not bad, not bad

Marinate your egg in this, soy sauce, mirin and water

Don't forget the paper towel

Oh yes paper towel good idea

That why nephew Nick egg got little white spot
