we all need an Auntie Esther in our lives

3 mins ago wth

YouTube is spitting facts 😂

Commenting before it shitloads of likes

@@taufikyahya5115 lol 😂 YouTube so bug we both saw this in seconds and then this get recommended to me just now.

Please help uncle Roger YouTube. Hes getting cancelled

He puts auntie Esther on the same love level of rice cooker and MSG.

Beep bop... I'm the Philosophy Bot. Here, have a quote: "The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong" ~ Mahatma Gandhi

And wok.

that's true love

@@Robin-rt5jo yep

Now that's love

"This dish so american - it should come with side of no health insurance." ... You never fail to slay me yet again, Uncle Roger.

Words of an Uncle living in the UK!

It hurts cuz it's true

Lmao this takes me back to watching OG iron chef and roasting Bobby Flay with my mom as a child. How this man has had the career he has had for the past 20+ years….😂

@@fenrirtitan1921 Hurt like untreated periodontal disease. Fuyooh.

bruh, this line was the best... Uncle always dropping them spicy one liners!

Not knowing the result, I can't imagine Bobby won that, but I have to give him mega props for going solo against Esther and Leah in a cooking culture that he is less than familiar with and coming out making food that looks edible. Honestly, he had almost TOO many handicaps on this one, he didn't stand a chance.

Actually Auntie Esther won!

Yea, back in the day when he first started doing this "challenge chefs at what they excel in" thing, he'd win almost all of the time in a straight fight. He knows what works and what people like, which might not always be authentic--- as authentic usually means regional tastes that might not have wide appeal. I guess his showrunners (or Flay himself) noticed that and started doing handicaps, but at some point it became the norm and now they have no idea how to tone it down without it looking like Flay can't handle it.

Yeah Bobby rarely loses so this tactic was genius

@@gamerzay654 Also if he would loose all the time people would be less interested in the program ;)

You can tell that Uncle roger loves someone if he treats them nicely and doesn’t roast them

He literally called auntie Esther too white for using a peeler. Then criticized her for putting soy in water for noodle.

@@blam9360 it is his job to judge..

@@stxr_livia No 💩 Sherlock, you miss the point of my reply, which was the Uncle Roger DID roast Esther. Try to keep up, junior. 🙄

@@blam9360 agree

​@@blam9360 the other chef put soy sauce in the water not aunty Esther😀

Aunty Esther could make cup noodles and Uncle Roger would give it 5 stars 😂

You can tell Uncle Roger really loves her.

Damn 4 minutes ago

Love your vids

real

*opens rice cooker with a sigh* unreciprocated love :(

His love for Aunty Esther is as strong as yours for Uncle Roger. It's a beautiful thing when people find each other.

Fun fact: Uncle roger actually had been a judge in an indonesian cooking tv show for 1 episode as a special guest

Name and episode pls

Hah serius?

​@@eriksalman8696 aku cek di YT cuma ketemu sebagai guest di Master chef junior indonesia

@@maddiemadtt ok, makasih.

@@maddiemadtt I just checked it he found a way to roast jimmy on a Indonesia TV show💀

Auntie Esther is the only one who can do no wrong in Uncle Rogers eyes

I get a meal prep service delivered during the week because I am sooo lazy when I work and am going to school. I always order a lot of the Asian inspired dishes, and when heating up some spicy Korean pork with kimchi and white rice, I looked at the packaging and realized the chef who created the meal is Auntie Esther. She’s so good at what she does!

"I trust Auntie Esther, if she say it good, then it good" Also Auntie Ether: "I'm a fan of Jaime"

HAIYAA!!!😂😂

The finding the pickle thing is actually a German Christmas tradition. Traditionally, the person to find the pickle (often it's an ornament) gets a special gift, but I think the gift in this case is just everyone screaming.

been German my whole life, never heard of this. Hope this tradition stays far aways from me :D

​@@mmcat2863 That's because it's not German. It's German-American. Like many folk traditions, the origin is unclear, but seems to have started in immigrant communities in the late 19th century.

@@mmcat2863 Especially if the prize is a "Gift." ;)

Auntie Esther is the only chef that never gets roasted by Uncle Roger and never disappoints him. Now that is next level Uncle Roger Treatment

find you somebody that treats you like Uncle Roger treats Auntie Esther

Lol

Auntie Esther is the anti-Jamie Oliver.

He called her so white for using a peeler, so... Did you watch the whole thing??

Honestly, I'd LOVE an Uncle Roger cooking show.

Same.

Same!!

Yessir, round one in the matchup could have the insane battle of Esther VS Ramsey and the winner gets a title higher than what they have.

He would have to learn how to cook first.

Giving Bobby credit for not knowing what the Cheusok holiday is (I don't either 😅) and not having asian cuisine as his focus, he did pretty great. I gained some respect for Bobby Flay with this! But nobody deserves Uncle Roger's love more than Auntie Esther...I'm sure she knows what she's doing! 😍

Supposedly Bobby flay is a wicked cool guy in real life... Unlike Alton brown who I'm reliably informed is a total jerk..But everyone has their bad days.

Bobby Flay does seem like a pretty nice dude

​@@Thurstoner Alton Brown is on record that Iron Chef burned him out and made him an angrier person. There's so many stories of people meeting him in his old Good Eats days and him being a chill, fun but witty sarcastic guy. I think the industry and age made him into a grumpy man, unfortunately.

I can’t believe he had so much knowledge over Korean cuisine, almost everything he said are so so true LMAO

what mistakes did he make?

Auntie Esther: Tries to be tricky by using home knowledge Also Auntie Esther: Basically just describes a smorgasbord

Mmm smörgåsbord

smorgasbord is the funniest word ive ever heard

I am sorry Uncle Roger for ever thinking you only know Malaysian dishes. You have proved to me that you know Korean dishes better than a LOT of other celebrities. You have my respect as a Korean and Foodie

the fact that he isn't roasting her into a crisp unlike other people he reviews shows how much he likes her

I noticed a bit of a comedic double standard. Roasted Auntie Leah but gave Auntie Esther a pass. 🤷

mnrigeIng 🅥 the bots are taking over

Insane this video ain’t even on yt for an hour and alr on 8k likes

watch him visiting her restaurant , there were some good vibes between them^^

It gives away as he made the pickle joke🤣

Bobby Flay is a pretty good tv chef. Honestly to cook all those dishes by himself in a competition is deserving of credit. I'm going to assume though that because its a TV show he knows some info before hand or at the very least he or is team has time to research the opposing chef.

Auntie Esther is the only chef Uncle Roger will never scold harshly

i also like how uncle rogers is doing his best to have good faith in bobby flay, being considerate of how he has to do things on the go without the time to actually do research for korean dishes, unlike the chefs who claim things are authentic but it's clearly non-traditional

Uncle Roger had me dying when he said Bobby was making that Salad Mexican 😂 I’m Mexican and I’ve made Pepino Salad with Aguacate before and yeah I put Cilantro tambien 😅

But for the record, cilantro means coriander leaves. The world outside of Mexico and the US just calls both the leaves and seeds coriander.

The only person who doesn't really get roasted by Uncle Roger is Aunty Esther. She is on premium aunty level 😂

your comment had been copied by bots atleast 3 times. :v

True, Auntie Esther is not only a good cook but a nice person as well.

Doesn't get roasted, because maybe she is more than just an aunty...👀😅

every one who followed uncle;s video about Easter see true chemistry on him

@@chickenfeet9304 i agree uncle roger mentioned lots of dirty phrases in side of Easter but she didn;t react wierd or getting upset , she;s pretty cool woman

The fact that it's a reality show means Bobby definitely knows the challenge beforehand, yet chooses to mess up anyway.

It's crazy how people believe they are actually cooking to the last second in these competition shows

@@yodawgzgaming4416 I mean they did in the japanese iron chef shows but that's because they were just better than the watered down version they do nowadays

​@yodawgzgaming4416 in this specific show, everything you see happening was done live.

From my years of watching Korean variety and cooking shows, cilantro to Koreans is like Marmite to Brits/Aussies. You either love it to pieces or hate it to death, there's no in-between..🤣

Aussie like vegemite 😀

Seriously an Uncle Roger cooking show? Count me in. I’ll support that in a heartbeat

Auntie Esther is also on Iron Chef. She did an amazing job. You should review those episodes.

Every time the sous chef talked about what she was doing or tried to mess with the usual recipe, Auntie Esther looked so pained lol

OK but I cannot be the only one here who would absolutely love to watch Uncle Rodger be a judge on a cooking show, right?

He's a judge every video he makes.

I think you are… you must be the only person in the world with that view

Search “uncle roger sorted food” it’s another channel he collaborated with and judged their attempt at fried rice

There is an episode of Sorted food where he does judge, it's hilarious!

There would be so much tension anticipating when he's going to take foot down from chair.

The pickle is actually a weird german tradition called hiding the pickle we do in our house on Christmas. The person who finds the hidden pickle ornament is beleived to receive good luck in the next year (that person also gets to open gifts first on Christmas) 😂

What started that trend? Do you know?

The pickle is an American, possibly German-American immigrant thing. It is entirely unknown in Germany.

@@carlyl2032 I'm not sure it's just always been done in our house

@@eypandabear7483 that makes sense as my great grandparents were German immigrants 😁

bro is tht a pickle.. y does it have buttons?

I'm kinda surprised that Uncle Roger didn't point out how Bobby just used the same spoon for both the mayo and gochujang. That tub of gochujang is completely contaminated now 😭

that made me put my leg down from chair

The hell you talkin bout. Mayo makes everything better. That tub of gochujang is officially elevated.

Auntie Esther is an exception for Uncle Roger...he defends her and really loves her😅

auntie esther the only person that can use different ingredients and still get uncle rogers approval. now thats respect

My respect for Uncle Roger has gone straight up!!! I love the tour! I'm not allowed in China either

Lmao how do u not have more likes, nice seeing u here

Auntie esther Is the only girl that never disappointed uncle roger

mnrigeIng 🅥 In this video, Uncle Roger reviews Auntie Esther’s appearance on the cooking competition show “Beat Bobby Flay.” Auntie Esther makes Korean dishes including bulgogi, kimchi pancake, and mushroom rice. Uncle Roger is impressed with her use of pear in the marinade for the bulgogi and is surprised when Bobby Flay adds soy sauce to his boiling water for the noodles. Uncle Roger also promotes ExpressVPN and encourages viewers to check out his upcoming tour. The video ends with a teaser for nephew Nigel’s upcoming stand-up comedy special.

😏😏

@@Facts60sec did you already submit your resume

That's why she has been promoted to aunty status. Because she is good.

*Hasn't disappointed Uncle Roger yet.

Man, Uncle Roger/Nigel truly knows his shit when it comes to cooking. Like, seriously! Been doing this for years and he can roast anyone for exactly the right reasons, impressive!

He does not do the writing alone, always has help of professional cooks. See description, this time „niece Ewa“.

Who else is rooting for uncle roger, for aunty ester to finally give him a chance?🙋🏽‍♂️🙋🏽‍♂️

I would definitely watch a cooking show with Uncle Roger as a judge

i would love to see uncle roger on his own TV show.

Cilantro is actually in a lot of Asian foods, it just goes by a different name. It's either coriander leaves or Chinese parsley. Coriander seeds are also common to Asian cooking. Cilantro is the leaves of the coriander, while coriander spice is from the seeds.

Nigel is British and that onscreen comment was for us. We call them both coriander and no-one would use 'Cilantro' as that's Spanish and we don't have a Spanish influence.

@@Scott3387 You missed the point, it doesn't matter what you name it when it's the same plant

SPOILER: Sorry for not putting in weejio, but auntie Esther won this round in the end THE HAIYAA SPECIAL dropping on June 4! Buy it now and watch with niece and nephew all over the world: moment.co/mrnigelng

E

Im here

You not only have great food taste, but movie taste also

Uncle, me as a Malaysian, how I can get a discount to watch your full show.

Fuiyoo

I would totally watch an uncle Roger cooking show.

Uncle Roger is so spot on the cast iron pan I can't even 😂

9:09 "nobody cheer when uncle roger show them my pickle" 💀💀💀😂😂

WAAAHOOOOOOOOOOO😂

5:03 as a Korean, when you say to little kimchi, I agree. My mom would add so much that the entire stew was like 50% kimchi

It's just too cute the way uncle Roger just disagree in any way to say no to Aunty Esther's Cooking 😆💓

5:10 the fake smile from auntie Esther when her partner was talking about soy sauce in the water got me 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah auntie Esther is so nice. I would have smacked her down Gordon Ramsay style for doing that.

She dying inside 😂

"I am sorry mom", you can hear her thinking it.

Actually putting soy sauce in the water is not a bad idea. The noodle will be well seasoned (just like putting salt in water when boiling pasta), and noodles will be coated slightly with brownish colour from soy sauce (especially if you can’t find the right type sweet potato glass noodles)

@@ciaochau2873 Glass noodles absorb flavor better than pasta, so you should just add flavor after boiling, no point in flavoring the water only to dump most of it away. Also, unlike salt, soy sauce is a combination of many flavors, so some flavors will stick to the noodles more, while some others will stay in the water more.

Gotta give it to Bobby Flay for carrying his own team.

Auntie Esther can do no wrong 😂

he was crushed when he saw him hug esther, his face says it all

Fiyho. I laughed so hard because I actually inherited a cast-iron pan from my great grandmother. You always make me laugh

Bobby Flay deserves so much credit. He has to blind cook a dish that the competing chef has made thousands of times on this show, and he wins quite often. He may not be a fancy chef, but his versatility and speed is pretty incredible.

And he shoots multiple shows a day

Not a fancy chef, but still an Iron Chef. And damn if he didn't earn that title.

He is really good at competition cooking

He's one of my favorite food network chefs.

@@silla-je9od auntie won, @mrnigelng mentioned it in a comment.

Uncle Roger starting a Food Show is the last thing I need in my life!😂

The way uncle Roger looks for aunty Esther just makes me happy

Just saw her on the Netflix Iron Chef. She was amazing and should have won the final!

When auntie Esther dose anything wrong uncle roger says if it’s her it’s always right 😂

Did not expect Uncle Roger to be so knowledgeable on Korean food!

“This dish so American, it should come with a side of no health insurance” 😂 had me dead

I'm American and I have health insurance so I don't get it.

The joke is that Americans often have unhealthy diets characterized by use of fatty foods. Here, Bobby is making Fried Chicken and Mayonaise. These foods are the perfect example of being terrible for one’s health due to the cholesterol and fatty oils. Additionally, the US is the only OECD country without universal healthcare. See King v. Burwell; see also NFIB v. Sibelius. Thus, Uncle Roger’s joke is social commentary on America’s fatty foods and health politics. Also, I am American.

@@harrisonblock1605 Damn that all sounds like a skill issue, just eat healthier and get a job that provides insurance lol.

@@govols1995let me clarify - I do not have these issues. The joke is based on stereotypes of Americans and that is why it is funny.

​@@govols1995 It's American stereotype. If you a healthy American, then good for you and stay healthy.

Side notes: we do put some soy sauce while boiling the glass noodles to give them darker color. The japchae came out quite not like the usual one (pale), probably that’s nicer with calamari aka squid, which is also used a lot in Korean cuisine.

PLEASE DONT GIVE UP ON TOURING!!!! You’re super funny, I would go see you! Don’t listen to the people that were “morally grandstanding” and “virtue signaling” over a joke about YOUR culture or atleast one YOU know more about! Your hilarious! Comedy is SUBJECTIVE!!

Yeah we need this cooking show with Auntie Esther

I understand Uncle Rogers love for Auntie Esther, she is awesome. I also hope he can do a show with her that would be so sick.

"In korean cooking, if in doubt, just throw spring onion on there" This phrase burst the shit out of me🤣

That's basically all East and Southeast Asian cooking

Yup. I live in SEA and I don't eat spring onion. I have to say : no onions, no spring onions please. They will still throw on a handful.

@@carmen4479 As someone who doesn't like onions, this comment is everything. lol

or sesame seeds

​@@ReptilianTeaDrinker I used to hate onions. Literally putting it aside in my plate. But after learning how to cook, I can't live without onions as well as garlic that I also used to hate.

I am 100% down to watch an Uncle Roger cooking show!

As a Korean, Bobby butchered every single Korean dish he made LOL but I give him props for cooking so many of our dishes and letting them known a little bit.

My best friend is Korean, we met in the military. I still visit her parents twice a year because they absolutely love me and spoil me with food. Send me home fatter, with leftovers 😂

When other’s do something wrong, Uncle Roger: You fucked up When Auntie Esther does something wrong, Uncle Roger: She knows what she’s doing haiyahh

Because Uncle Roger think it’s actually good

It proves that he likes her 😂

You should know by now, auntie esther doesnt do anything wrong

Really liked Nigel's bit at the end. It was nice of you to do a commercial for him, Uncle Roger

I'd love to see Uncle Roger review more of Bobby Flays recipes (provided he has something suitable)

Im so impressed how much he knows about korean food. 😲

It would be so good if uncle Roger had a tv show

The pickle is a German Christmas tradition. A pickle is hidden on the Christmas tree and whoever finds it gets to open the first gift

Theres just something very hilarious about Uncle Roger saying "Nephew Bobby" and I am all for it.

And "Newphe Suit Guy"

My 9 year old sister watches you so i decided to check you out and i actually love this channel keep up the good work ur super funny i love watching you and love the accent 😂

I give credit to Bobby flay. The odds were honestly completely against him in this, and he did what he could under the circumstances

As a Korean, I shed a few tears when I heard, " Is avocado Korean food?"

I wish there was a Mexican uncle rodger (Uncle Juan), just someone very knowledgeable of Hispanic cuisine to diffrenate the different recipes for south and central American culture's

I would love to see your own cooking show.

Uncle Roger may not be pregnant, but he never fails to deliver.

Midwives deliver...

@@FelixMuk r/whoosh

I'm the postman, I always deliver 😂

@@jonmarionsalvador1714 stop go do your homework

nice

I’ve been using a lightweight cast iron Dutch oven as my wok, it’s crazy deep and has a curved bottom like a wok. Works well if frying with oils.

Uncle roger keeping making people famous, First Gordon now Auntie Esther Haiyaah!

As a fellow Korean, I feel the pain that Uncle Roger feels when Jaimie Oliver cooks egg-fried rice.

Hope she won! All her dishes looked great. Fun review!

I've never had the dish so I can't attest to the flavor profiles. There is absolutely nothing wrong with seasoning the water noodles are boiled in though. I finally learned this past year that it's extremely common to do this. Usually it's a very strong flavor you want the noodles to carry into the dish. Garlic and onion powder are common for italian dishes. A lovely co-worker of mine does it for her buttery garlic noodles. She cuts back on the garlic in the butter sauce because of the infusion. It's easier for people that find garlic overwhelming. Maybe that was the goal? Was it sweet soy or aged? Trying to give her the benefit of the doubt.

4:01 at least Bobby is honest about it, as opposed to other chefs who claim their recipes are "traditional" when it's really just an amalgamation of what they think are typical ingredients

Right? He's doesn't really know this cuisine and doesn't have time to look it up, so he's making it up as he goes. But when they've got time to look it up and just can't be assed to, there's no excuse.

You know it's love when Uncle Roger forces himself to watch 'Beat Bobby Flay', that show's the pits.

The other month me and my girlfriend tried boba and I was waiting for uncle Roger to pop out from the back of the store 😂😂

Oh! That reminds me, i have a steamer I bought myself that I still need to try out. What reminded me? Thinking of how much I hate my rice cooker, and marginally hated the last one, and really hated the one that only worked once at my parent's house and then only good enough to burn the rice, and how I had been cooking rice directly in the oven for years because a nephew broke the rice steamer my parents gave me, which they gave me to replace the one I had bought from Goodwill that lasted quite a while before he broke that one. (sigh) But, I did finally buy a two or three tier steamer and I am suffering rice cooking PTSD at this point and can't bring myself to use it, so I am using the last rice cooker I bought that I HATE.

Omg Kung fu hustle gave me life as a kid that auntie knew how to throw sandles and knifes lol😂

others: *made one mistake* uncle Roge: haiya, so weak. Aunty Ester: *made hell lot of mistake* Also Uncle Roge: she still the wueen of flavour❤❤

Epic tale of one sided love continuing.

@Sidda36r cap bot

​Don't Read My Profile Picture ok i will not

Hiiya

Fr

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🇺🇸

Hearing him talk differently during standup felt like breaking the forth wall

Feel like this is one of those few times a chef didn't deserve to get roasted even if the ingredients/technique weren't right. Bobby pretty much admitted from the start this is completely out of my wheelhouse, he basically had no idea what he was doing besides a few general recipes/concepts and off he goes. Feel like that's the equivalent of telling Uncle Roger to cook a Passover dinner and he doesn't know anything about Jewish cooking or dietary laws. But I'd seriously want to compete on Uncle Roger's show. I want to sign up!

We need an uncle Roger cooking show! Bro that needs to be your next project. People compete and you do your thing while they are cooking!! WTF! It would be the best cooking show on tv or YouTube

An uncle Roger cooking show would be awesome

i would be a contestant on your cooking show 100%

You know uncle roger is into someone when he doesn’t roast them to death 😂

Btw bro some bot stole ur comment

Can't wait for the show!!! Way to go Auntie Esther, food looks gorgeous!!!

I always surprised how uncle Roger analyze on Korean food so accurate and now this too, especially on calamari instead of beef on Japchae thing.(Im not saying it is bad but it is lesser common ingredient than beef for Japchae) I would have believed even if he has a Korean wife :D
