agreed. she's always smiling and calm

"You can tell I am not professionally trained" Are you even kidding me? Watching your channel is what changed my life and got me into cooking. I went from someone who knew nothing about cooking, and yet your videos are so beginner friendly! thank you for teaching me how to cook for my family!!

And, yes, she does seem like the sweetest person, ever. I am so sorry to hear about your arthritis. Inflammation is so painful.

Oh, and I also wanted to mention that my mother & I always loved to go out & eat Chinese food. But now she is 83 years old & bed bound with Alzheimer's. She would often ask me for some of her favorite dishes. That's how I discovered you. And when she eats it, she will say thank you for going to the restaurant & picking it up. She thinks that I ordered it & not made it. So thanks for giving me the gift to make my Mother happy.

That’s beautiful.

8:51 that expression is priceless :)) Thank you for your recipes!

I bought your wok and like it better than the one I had. Tbh, I'd rather watch your videos than have another cookbook. Thank you for sharing a little bit about yourself.

Mandy, I love your videos. I cooked many of your recipes, and my neighbors thought one time that I bought the food from a restaurant. That’s how good your recipes and presentations are. If a Lebanese guy can cook such good Chinese dishes, it’s a testament to your world-class cooking and teaching talents. Thank you so much.

This is one my favorite channels! As far as that pork belly goes, give it time and you will conquer that mean pork belly! We're all here to support you, so you could do a pork belly show soon!

Love the way you say "Hi Everyone".. God bless you dear.

"The pork belly was holding onto me" she said, holding back tears.😂😂😂...that's about as cute as it gets! Love your videos.

The sweetest prodigy chef on the planet, thanks for the simply delightful and educational videos, God bless you always.

You are so sweet, it was very kind of you to share with us! Nice bonus getting to know you better! Keep healthy and keep making cooking videos please!

Wow, thank you so much for this video. You can tell how much love you have for food and more.

Oh my goodness, I just purchased a Craft Wok a few days ago before I knew this channel even existed. I also just purchased your wok. I can't wait to get it. I just found this channel and I love it.

Lovely. Keep up the good work. I have always respected the Chinese work ethic. When I was young my best friend was Chinese and he was the hardest working person I new. He was always up early helping his family before school and after school he helped in the market gardens then did homework before bed. He always achieved great results through hard work and was always polite to everyone. The whole family contributed to the community. New Zealand.

I first went to China in 1966. I learned to speak mandarin before I went. I adore you and thank you for your efforts! 🤠

I just love you. I don't mean it in a weird way. You just seem to be a really nice person. Your videos are so fun, and you're so friendly. Thank you for sharing! God bless!

You are a fantastic teacher. I'm your #1 fan. You taught me so much about ingredients and technic. I love how you cook so healthy. Blessings to you and yours.😎👋🏼🤍

It was so nice to hear your story. It is obvious you love cooking & teaching. You don't have to go to school if you have passion & dedication. You are a great teacher, explaining step by step, the reasons why, showing the product's you use (which is so helpful when shopping) & offering alternatives. I am also enjoying learning how to cook chinese. Because nobody ever showed the real way to cook it. Only the Americanized way. If you wanted Chinese for dinner you had to go out. Know I can create authentic, yummy Chinese cuisine! The Asian store lady always smiles at me. I just show her a screenshot of an item you used & she goes & gets it for me. Please continue your great recipes. Don't stress out on perfecting them. And YES to a cookbook!

Ms. Mandy, you just broke the hearts of all your single viewers! 😂 Welcome to the US, congratulations on your marriage and thank you for sharing your recipes.

Uh, no. Not all the "single viewers," just the simps.

As a native US citizen with Chinese immigrant wife (we met at work in US), just want to tell you that we love your content, we're happy for your success and very proud of how much you've accomplished. Best wishes for your continued success.

It's amazing that you did not go to culinary school because your food look like it came out of any top notch cooking magazine. You are truly talented.

Thank you for sharing a little bit about yourself. I have been watching your channel for a while now. I and my sister cook one of your recipes once a week or every 2 weeks. I usually meet up with her on my days off to cook your recipes. I'm interested in your cook book. I'll be waiting. Thank you again

My first egg fried rice following your video's not stopped cooking Chinese food since. Thanks for all you are doing. Keep up the good work.

Even my husband will sit down and watch your channel, we have made so many of your recipes! Thank you! 🇦🇺

If you are in Melbourne, or visit Melbourne, go to the Flower Drum restaurant in China Town. Highly recommended and rated in the top 10 restaurants in the world.

Mandy, what you said around 3:00 is one of my favorite reasons for your Channel.when I saw how much research you did and using such explanations for authentic Chinese ingredients, I signed up to be a patreon.I'm very proud of you and the work you put out. You are a very humble, pretty and very talented and enlightening young lady. Thanks for just being you!

I love that you are totally real and relatable because many of us try and try something and we cry too when it gets so frustrating!!! Sending big hugs.

You know what I love about you and your videos? You are peaceful, elegant in your movements and funny, all at the same time. You lift my spirits every time. Thank you.

What is so attractive about you Mandy is your humbleness, your originality and simplicity. There is no vanity in you or in your cooking. And the biggest: your constant smile... Hugs from Canada!

Mandy, been a vegetarian for the last 50 years. I simply omit or use meat substitutes in your recipes and they turn out great. Thank you !!!!! I visit your channel often because your videos are well done. Your recipe directions and narrations are precise and easy to follow and you have a wonderfully adorable personality !!!!!!! 😀😀😀

Suggestion for the cookbook: please add a little button to push for us to hear your instructions. Half the pleasure of watching your videos is listening to your lovely 😊 tone, cadence and humor. Very enjoyable.

Mandy, you are such a delight. I have truly enjoyed learning from you since I found you on yt awhile back. 💗 Thank you for sharing about yourself. Congratulations on your Wedding. Much affection to the Bride and Groom. Live Long and Prosper.💗🎉🙏💪🏼🇺🇲💗 Welcome to the USA. I look forward to using your new cookbook. 🌿🌺🍀🏵️🌱

I hope America is being kind to you in these troubled times. I love your recipes. Thanks for sharing. 💛😊

Please, please... put many many recipes of traditional Chinese fermented foods in your cookbook. I love them and have realized that many Chinese recipe books, for westerns, don't include homemade versions of these foods and instead direct readers to stores. I really enjoyed knowing more about you, you seem to be so kind and peaceful.❤

I really love that you explain not only the how in what you're doing but more importantly the why behind what you're doing. This is a sign of a very good teacher. That is the reason for the 1M + subscribers. You make it easy to learn how to cook all these sumptuous recipes. You are very straightforward and honest, for example, you tell your viewers that a certain ingredient can be expensive, you offer substitutions, and you even once remarked a very honest opinion that you will not repeat a recipe and would rather buy them outside... I believe that was the 5 day process rice dish :) I am very happy and excited to watch your subscribers growing. Though, I cannot be a patreon subscriber, I make it a point to watch all your videos and give them a thumbs up, hoping that that way, I am able to help your channel. All the best and more power to your channel!!!

I totally needed this video! Sheds so much light on the background of who you are. Thank you for being so open in sharing yourself, Mandy. I think you're absolutely awesome. So amazing!!

Such a sweetheart.

Her recipes are the best. I like that she explains why she does what she does. The few (about 5) that I’ve tried, have turned great.

That wooden coffee table behind you is just stunning. Work of art. Please be safe. This is a crazy time to come to the US. You seem so nice. Congratulations and well wishes. Thank you for all your tips and advice.

So lovely to get to know a little bit about you through this Q&A video! Thank you for sharing a bit about yourself, I really love your channel 🥰

Your natural warmth is a big part of the appeal of your videos - please don't lose it as you become more famous, as I predict you will!

I live in the California desert. My sister lives in Orange Park, Florida. She would complain about the Chinese food tasting like T.V. dinners. SHE LOVED IT !!!!! Now anytime you post a new video, I get a notice from you AND one from her. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK I have arthritis too. Sometimes it hurts WORSE than other times. No matter what, KEEP ON MOVING !!!! The moment YOU give up due to pain, depression sneaks in to steal ALL of the JOY in your life and EVERYONE around you.

This was delightful. Thank you for sharing this piece of yourself.

Your channel is my favorite Chinese cuisine cooking channel. In fact, I stopped watching others because I found your tips really practical and helpful and works(!) it’s hard to believe you’re not professionally trained.

Congratulations on your marriage! 🎉🎊🎂🎈🍾

Congratulations on getting married! I can’t wait until your cookbook is published. I love watching your cooking channel. It is so easy to follow your instructions. I also have attempts to cook one dish many time and finally came out ok after the third year. Good luck on your cookbook!

Thanks for sharing about your self. You're a down to earth person, ,simple but very interesting and that makes you inspirational. More power to you and God bless.

The more to learn the more you realise you don’t know. This is nice to hear, it keeps the world interesting!

Cooking has always been part of my family life. My great grandfather came from china around 1900. And as far as i know my grandfather and his siblings worked by selling/cooking chinese foods. And so did my father, we opened chinese food at our house. I learned cooking just by watching him cooks like a pro 😄 I like to watch your video because i feel it is the original recipes from the land of my ancestors. Though you said you never go to the culinery school, but i believe experience made you cook like a pro. Just like my dad. Congratulation for your wedding. Wish you all the best. 😘

I really admire your ambition. I love your channel and I always have! It’s nice to get to know you a little more. :) Congratulations on your marriage!

I also love to cook and started cooking little things at a time on our farm watching my mother and my older sister. My family and friends love my cooking!

Lovely to hear your story. Keep it up.

Thank you for sharing, nice to know a little about you. I love your recipes and how you present them. I've cooked many and my husband loves them. When he sees me going with rice he is happy to wait for dinner.

Believe me, Mandy. I totally get the arthritis thing. I'm dealing with rheumatoid arthritis and there are days when it can get very unpleasant. Still, I don't let it get me down. I thank you for sharing a little about yourself. Late congratulations on your marriage! I wish you both the best and much happiness too!

Rest assured that your great cooking knowledge will last for a very long time. You have certainly changed my life. Thank you and may God bless you.

Mandy, you are the BEST!! Keep up the great work because you do such a wonderful job of helping educate other countries about Chinese cuisines!! Please stay safe!!

What a completely captivating and charming young woman! I appreciate that you are not classically trained and cook from what you have learned from family members as you have progressed. You and your husband are what makes the United States a great Country!!! Thank you for sharing your story, your recipes and your delightful personality! I wish you much success! Can't wait to see that cook book. :)

Mandy, I love your videos! I love the way you talk, your accent, your in-depth explanations of everything, etc. And your recipes ridiculously delicious. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your talent and food with us! Congrats on your wedding!

You were 'Professionally' Trained by you parents! The best Education!

Because of you, sweet girl, I now have Shaoxing cooking wine, dark soy sauce, Lee Kum Kee Oyster Sauce and Fish Sauce in my pantry, andI use them - often! Your teaching is thorough and clear and you have taught me so much. ❤️ Thank you!!! Sending you lots of love from California.

What a lovely person and such positive energy...wonderful videos, doing such a great job.

I purchased your wok, and cooking with it for couple days now, and loving it!❤️🥰

I just wanna say I love your channel. It is for sure in my top 5 favorite cooking channels of all time and definitely one of the very few best chinese cooking channels out there.

I just found your channel. I love your recipes. The first im going to try is dried scallops and shrimp for XO sauce.

Do you ever get tired of so many people calling you "cute?" Sadly, that's the best word to describe your personality that comes across in the videos. I must admit that I love the culture that comes across in your cooking demonstrations. You are introducing me to dishes I've never thought about cooking before.

Congratulations on your Wedding❤🥂 I must say I've watched alot of cooking channels. You are one of my favorite, thank u Mandy for all your videos😄

I am OBSESSED with your channel... cooking things, one by one....over and over... until I think I get it right. So much fun --- and deliciousness!

Mandy, you are a naturally gifted cook and a wonderful teacher. I hope your arthritis is well under control. Listening to your pork belly story was an eye-opener (and tear jerker, lol.) I will certainly purchase your cookbook.

This was so nice to watch, thank you so much for sharing! I really love your channel and how you explain everything :)

Awww such a lovely vid Mandy! Now you aren’t a stranger to us, would love to see your hubby as well 😜🙈love all you do and congratulations on getting married, wishing you both lots of love, good health, wealth and much happiness 🙏❤️

You are the sweetest girl. I love your videos and have made quite a few of them. My roommates love you too because of it I think haha. I just want to say thank you for sharing with us.

I love your channel and how you explain the why, not just the how! And I agree with everyone, you are such a sweet human being, and it is a joy to feel like I am sitting with my sister in the kitchen learning:)

I really enjoyed this. What a lovely person. You deserve every success in life!

The more you learn about any field, the less you feel you know. I completely relate to that.

That's a really good awareness to have. In education it's understood that learning has a 'U' shaped curve, where confidence is on the y-axis and knowledge is on the x-axis. I wish more people understood this.

I feel you about the arthritic pain. 25+ years of nursing gave me mine. I was so happy when you posted that ginger candy recipe! It really helps.

You are such a joy! Glad to hear your story.

I can totally relate to the pork belly thing, I went through the same thing with making dough, I became obsessed with making the perfect cinnamon rolls, had to move on.

I love your channel so much! You’re so sweet and you explain the content very well. I think we all love that big terrific smile!! ❤️😁

You cook from the heart, you put much love in what you do !

Keep up the excellent work, I enjoy having you to teach us some of your recipes. All of the best to you.

I'm surprised that you didn't like your original pork belly recipe. It was the first recipe of yours I tried and I was hooked. I actually just made a batch a few days ago.

Hi there, I am not Chinese but am Asian and do not live in China though I reside in a country with a strong Chinese population. My partner is Chinese. The perfect crispy pork belly, or Siuyoke in cantonese, is highly prized and quite elusive to the home cook. To taste the best, you must visit highly rated restaurants that focus almost entirely just on that. Standards are incredibly high. So I do understand though she has a good recipe, she sought to perfect it even more. I daresay perfect crispy pork belly is of cultural significance in Chinese society. Personally to me a very good crispy pork belly is better than the best steak you can find :)

The television show, which is broadcast on PBS in the USA titled "America's Test Kitchen," which is often abbreviated as ATK, uploaded here on KZread their recipe for crispy pork belly and I only mention it here in the hope that perhaps they have a helpful technique for the home cook as they (ATK) strive for perfection too. I've never had crispy pork belly though, so I am the least qualified person to say what is good or bad, but I just thought that "two heads are better than one" right?

I LOVE your channel and your story. What a fabulous journey!

Aw Mandy I was so happy to see this video! It is wonderful to see how you have such a love for cooking and spreading your culture. Your videos are so well done and the recipes are precise and easy to follow...and delicious!! Keep up the good work and thank you! ❤

I am seriously going to master your recipes - one at a time. I started making dumplings because they are the “toughest”, I think. You made it look so easy and I always look forward to weekends where I can practice folding and crimping the dough. Lots of love and all the best from the Philippines. 🤗🫕🥟🍜🍲🍤🥡🥢

How wonderful to listen to your story!

You really are a fascinating person.You have such an instinctive way of understanding food, no wonder you're so good at this! Don't let the pork belly get you down, everyone has that one thing that beats them. Have another go at it when you feel ready.

I love your recipes. I have made 4 of them so far. My family loved them.

I never thought I would learn to cook Chinese food. You are an amazing teacher, and make things very easy to follow so we can serve a dish we are proud of. Whatever brought you here, I'm so glad you stayed. Best to you and yours.

LOVE your channel. Thank you for all your help making Chinese food preparation so much easier.

Ms. Mandy, big thumbs up to you for your self control regarding sweets. You're very disciplined. 😄

I love that you have done this on your own for the most part, and have learned along the way. Much appreciated and love your attitude and how you are so honest about preparation. It takes such hard work and hope you continue in your success!! Congrats!!!

Congratulations on getting married! I am thrilled about your cookbook, what I love about your recipes that you talk about in this video is how each of them carry certain knowledge about certain ingredients or cooking methods. Not only do I get to enjoy a great meal but I learn something new from you. Thank you ❤️

Your channel has inspired me!! Thank you!

I love your cooking,keep up the good work!😊

Congratulations to you and your husband Mandy. Thank You for the Q & A...that was a fun video🤗. Love your channel🙏💖!!!

Thank you for sharing your story! Your videos on perfect, detail enough but short and sweet! Tried many of your recipes and loved them all! Can’t wait to hear your subscription bell ring!
