As an aside, this is not sponsored, I've been using this Tea Seed Oil (cookwithyouyou.com/products/youyou-oil) and they gave a discount, no kickback to me but the code BERYLxYOUYOU will give you 10% if you wanna try. It has a neutral profile and high smoke point and is really nice to cook with. Im getting professional with my oils, what can I say?

Pakistani Anday Aaloo ka Salan: www.flourandspiceblog.com/anday-aalu-ka-salan-or-e…
Japanese Oyakodon:
1 lb boneless and skinless chicken thighs/breasts, sliced thinly
½ onion, sliced thin
1-2 cups water
1 tsp dashi mix (optional, if you don't have, no worries! I usually make it without)
3 ½ tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp mirin (definitely need this)
¼ cup green onion
2-4 eggs
2 cups cooked white sticky rice (make sure you use sticky rice, you can find a brand called "Botan" at most American stores, even Walmart!)

Directions
Start cooking some rice in your rice cooker/stove top.
In a small mixing bowl, combine water, dashi, soy sauce, mirin and mix until combined. Set aside.
Dice chicken into thinly sliced bite sized pieces and set aside.
Whisk 2-4 eggs in a small bowl and set aside.
Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and chicken and cook until chicken is fully cooked through.
Add the water, dashi, soy sauce, and mirin and lower heat to medium low. Tase the broth to see if you need more salty (add soy sauce) or sweet (add mirin or sugar). Cover with lid until it comes to a medium boil.
Trickiest part - slowly drizzle the beaten eggs (I like using a measuring cup with a spout) over the chicken and onions into the bubbling broth. Make sure to drizzle it around the entire pan so the eggs don't become one big blob. Cover with lid and cook until eggs are just set.
Scoop some out onto some hot sticky rice and serve with plenty of green onions on top.

Indonesian Telur Gulung: @DapurAba20    • Resep simpel Telur gulung abang-abang  
Cameroonian Spaghetti Omelette Sandwich:
Ingredients
- 2 to 3 eggs
- 1/4 of bell pepper (red or green )
- half of a tomato
- Half of a onion
- Maggi seasoning ( cube or sauce ) i would say a tsp for the sauce and half of a cube.
- pepper
- a good 1/2 cup of leftover spaghetti
- a baguette

Recipe
1. Chopped the onion, tomato and bell pepper. Fry them in an oily skillet at medium heat. Mix regularly. When the onion are cooked set them aside.
2. In the meantime, beat your eggs with the Maggi seasoning and pepper in a bowl (NO SALT ). Add you’re veggies and mix well.
3. reheat your skillet add a little bit of oil if necessary. Spread the spaghetti in one Layer and pour the egg batter.
4. Once it is set, push it from the side so it’s evenly spread
Let it cook 3/4 minutes at medium heat When the bottom is golden flip you’re omelet. ( I recommend to use a plate to not broke it ) And cook for another 2/3 min.
5. Put your omelet in the bread. And add the sauce of the choice ( I would recommend nothing too overpowering like a thin spread of mayo and a little bit of chili oil/ sauce )

If you want to try another dish from Cameroon, Claire recommends Peanut butter stew!

    Indonesian here! I made telur gulung before and failed multiple times lol, but from what i saw online heres the tips: - you should add a tablespoon of water to 2 eggs - wait for the oil to be hot and drop the egg from a decent height above the pan ( it should have a "wave" effect) - if its not rolling nicely, the oil might not be hot enough Hope it helps beryl!
  • @thedragodile545
    I thoroughly enjoyed the juxtaposition of the Indonesian guy's (I don't know how to spell his name and don't want to butcher it!) sweet, gentle, and slow speech with the absolute FRUSTRATION of making that egg dish. 😂 Love your channel!
  • @jundimulia3537
    aww Beryl! Telur Gulung is definitely not everyone's cup of tea cause yes it is a very oily dish! however, good try on making them, you can't make them less oily though xD it's the way it is. love from Indonesia xx
  • @KissMeLycia86
    Italian here! Spaghetti omelette (frittata di spaghetti) is so nostalgic, my grandmother used to male those as a seaside lunch in summer when i was young! I was so surprised to see it as a Cameroon dish!
  • Beryl, I love that you always have captions!! It’s so thoughtful. I am a mom and always have a baby napping or nursing lol, so I love having captions on instead of higher volume. I also have ADHD and captions help me process the videos fully. Plus helps locate some of the ingredients I don’t know how to spell ☺️
  • I think a great idea for a video would be pregnancy foods/meals from around the world! Like meals for pregnant woman that are popular in cultures that help nourish the mother and child☺️ perfect for Mother’s Day! Lol
  • @Ealsante
    Thanks for this fascinating video Beryl! A suggestion - since it's Ramadan, I think it'd be really cool to see what Muslims around the world make for their evening meals. In Singapore and Malaysia, there's a huge array of delicacies, but how is this done elsewhere?
  • @gj8326
    For the telur gulung the street vendor secret is puting about 3-7 ratio of water and egg. I not really sure the ratio is right tho, its been so long since I make one You should seasoned it with chiken boulion or swap the water with some kind of stock or just use some unused ramen seasoning. The topping is usually ketchup and or kecap manis. And last is life hack if you still cant make it, get some one to put the egg in and you rolled it up immediately. Yes for teamwork. And if you succed on the revenge, please make a video about it. Its somekind of a challenge here in Indonesia to try to immitate the street vendor.
  • @susviadelta6039
    Yes! Making Telur gulung is not that easy haha I actually failed coupe times... If you want make telur gulung again you can add little bit of water to the egg and mix it. And when you fry it you must hurry to roll the egg because it cooked easily
  • @courage8tsu
    What a truly egg-cellent video. Although no video you produce is ever fowl. Anyway I’ll stop yolking around! Cracking video as always 🤩
  • @JuriAmari
    My family’s from Cameroon 🇨🇲 so I got excited to see the spaghetti sandwich in this episode! I recommend mixing in the Maggi with the egg if you want a more even distribution. I also recommend trying out the powdered/cubed Maggi if you want to try different flavors of it. My favorite’s the chicken Maggi. My mom’s is the shrimp one. Enjoy! 😁
  • Something about Kisa (who shared the Japanese dish) was really calming. I enjoyed hearing about her childhood experience of watching her mom make it, it reminded me of learning dishes (Goan Indian) from my mom growing up too. Also, the Pakistani dish looked tasty
  • "If you can't roll it properly, then the result won't be good" Beryl: And it was at this moment that she knew, she F'd up This is eggs-actly the thing people need to watch right now. The perfect thing to crack open our inner culinary skill. What an egg-ceptional piece of entertainment. These recipes are eggs-cellent but I especially love the Pakistani recipe. Pakistani cuisine in general is eggs-tremely underrated and definitely deserves recognition as much as neighboring India does.
  • @hirzq
    Making telor gulung is too hard, even for us Indonesians 😂 I suggest you make tahu telor (tofu + egg) instead. That one is a lot easier I guess, imo.
  • @auleaf1210
    Ohh I get your frustration Beryl, reminds me of when my little sister begged me to make it. I don't think there's anything wrong with the pan though a deeper one would probably make it easier to roll. Technically you'd want to drop the egg mix kinda high from the pan so it comes down stringy, using some kind of strainer help achieve that. Ofc I'd rather left it to the professional street vendor lol
  • @avezan82
    Malaysian here. I knew about the bird's nest omelette but never knew this combo exist. The thin ones is used for butter prawn recipe and requires a certain technique.
  • @justname4047
    As an Indonesian, I also feel the same way when making egg rolls using a bamboo skewer 😩. I also feel annoyed that I prefer to buy rather than make my own 😂. I have a reference for Indonesian dishes from eggs that you can try to cook and of course they are very delicious when eaten😋. I suggest you cook food from eggs called "martabak". All you need is eggs of course, dumpling skin, some optional seasonings that you like such as salt and pepper. Then the main thing is a lot of green onions. For toppings, you can adjust what you like. Such as chicken, beef, pork, bacon, corned beef, sausage, mushrooms, etc. For some professionals the street food vendors will use a large skillet and a lot of oil due to the size of the customer. They will make the dumpling skin so big and wide to fry. For home sizes and can be eaten everyday, you just need to fry the dumpling skin on enough hot oil then pour the beaten egg and mix it with all the ingredients you like. it's finished. I hope you try it beryl❤❤

    "Can we give ourselves Michelin stars at home? ...Because I'm giving myself one" lol love you, Beryl! 🤣💕

    German here. I grew up with spaghetti omlette at home. I can`t belive that this is an international thing. I eat it with pickles. This is why I love this channel so much.
