Can’t beat an Aussie cooking an Irish take on Chinese food. Proper authentic cuisine

" I'm aware that Ireland is not part of the UK " liked subscribed and 🛎 turned on 👍

Beer food in Ireland is also known as lining.

We have a sophisticated palate here in Ireland :) Now, do a breakfast roll!

nothing hits the spot like a spice bag after a night out. I make them at home too cause, I can't feed the kids rubbish all the time, but, a proper chinese takeaway spice bag is a thing of beauty. Cheers from Cavan, Ireland

Full of salt and oil and chicken and grease.... That sounds like heaven!

You done us Irish proud with this one mate.🤣❤️

irishman here......that spice bag is missing red bell peppers, the spice mix is usually the same mix as the salt and chilly or black pepper chicken with sugar ......... and the curry sauce in irish Chinese take aways is pretty unique.......dm me with a PO address and I can send you some spice bag mix and Irish curry sauce powder mix.

You seem to have become somewhat of a specialist in “camping hangover meals”. For that, my friend, I am eternally grateful!🤣

Anything served from a greasy brown paper bad has to be delicious hangover food. Looks amazing

I'm from Ireland and I have to say, I'd be proud to eat a spice bag like that. Great job! Also, bag

Commenting for the benefit of Fred's 3 course meal.

Just an FYI , wood is the best chopping board as it is a natural antiseptic element and as long as it’s scrubbed and rinsed correctly then a wooden chopping board are the best

I’d not heard of an Irish Spice Bag before now after watching this I need one. We do heaps of camping and cooking on the fire, so definitely going to add this to our repertoire. Thanks for all your inspo Harry

Bag That shot at 0:05 seconds was well worthy of a mic drop 😂👌🏻🙌🏻

I'm irish and a fair few decades old and only tasted a spice bag a few weeks ago! My brother was shocked that I'd never had it and highly advised me to, oh it was good

In Ireland we call spring onions Scallions

Thanks for the honesty at the end; can’t be bothered deep frying normally let alone camping 🔥 Stainless steel water bottles are great for oil & vinegar etc. I originally got one for fish sauce because fish everywhere is never fun. You can get big ones for the large sized oil bottles. As much as I avoid using plastic normally, zip lock bags are great for camp cooking, save the mess.

😂😂🇮🇪as an Irish man living here in Perth for last 24 years and same amount of years before in Ireland I have never had that!however after watching your demo/ cooking class I will give it a go Harry! Have you tried proper Black pudding and White? Breakfast of course but I like anytime when recovery is required eh!👍😎

So in August or 1990 a chef in a chinese resaturant in Finglas is finishing up for the night whn he hears a knocking on the door of the take away. Outside are four deperate, drunk and very hungry hombres who are beggin for a birra grub. The chef being a kind hearted man does not want to turn away the customers so he tells them to wait a bit and goes back into his kitchen. He finds all the leftovers from the day, the last bits of unsold fried chicken, a few old chips at the bottom of the frying vat and some old veg, he fries up the lot, puts it into brown bags, slaps on a generous dollop of curry sauce. The lads were delired with their post pint feast. The rest is history.

You have given a spice bag far more respect than the locals Chinese’s places here do, this is display of soul food. I personally like to flash fry then bake my thighs for a crisp and tenderness. I understanding the level of commitment to filming and cooking this is well produced and made with love. Well done sir 👏👏👏

Loved your term and comment “ made with a chicken and it’s children “ 😅 That one was right out of a “bag” 😁

That looks like it would be a wicked meal around camp. Something to just sit and pick at with a cold one.

I grew up in Ireland and never really heard about the spice bag. Social media is making it really popular nowadays, but it wasn't always like this

Nice, Have to say whenever I am doing chicken in cornflour I use a large zip lock bag saves the mess

Great job Harry agree with the beer paring😂. From kildare Ireland🇮🇪🇮🇪

I'd never heard of Irish Spice Bag before, thanks for making this.

Great video! Never actually had a spice bag but it reminds me of the “3 in 1” back home (Ireland) that I used to get in our local Chinese takeaway. Fried rice, chips & curry sauce all together in a plastic container with a fork. After a few pints you’d devour it!!!Thanks for the videos.

Here in the states, in western New York we call that cure for a hangover, a “garbage plate” very delicious! Cheers!👍🏻🍻😋

ngl spice bags with honey sauce is probably the most delectable things ive ever eaten lol. curry sauce is lovely too tho.

The sound of Harry taste testing the sauce 🫠🫠🫠

Thank you for the inspiration, oily meal aside, the cooking over the fire bit and time spent outdoors is what makes it all awesome!

I do something similar but with garlic five spice, S&P, a green chilli and a little sugar.

Also a spice box(or munchy box) , all served in a big pizza box.

We love the green part of spring onions, carry ours wraped in paper towel in a bag. Keeps well

Back in the day my mom used to save the used cooking oil in a container and put in fridge then later put in pan or deep fry again for cooking the fish my dad and us used to catch out in the boat and it got reuse a many times probably collected more flavours in time but when it started to go black it got tossed out , will live for ages in fridge I recon , I haven't done it because I don't deep fry any thing , I oven bake stuff not the same but healthier I hope , the oil goes hard in a container in fridge just like fat or lard used in them days , that meal looks fantastic thank you the Irish and thank you for cooking it up 💯👌I guess if you're out on the grog and at 2am you find a pie van and they served that up you'll down it just like dowin a pie floater , I bet you don't know what a pie floater is 😅

Good food, Good Drink you've got camping in the bag!!!!!Love it.

Add cheese to take it to the next level. Literally eating the same thing while watching! 🤤🤤

just a tip mate, you can buy McDonnells curry sauce which is very similar to the real thing, we have in Ireland. Certain coles have it in the international section.

Was lucky enough to hold out until I visited Dublin to try a Spice Bag for the first time. My host was amused I even wanted to try it but humoured me anyway and it was as you say, the perfect post beer food. Yours looked excellent and I'm sure you will cook it again sometime soon!

Also we definitely don't need to be drunk to get one, we often just get them for dinner 😂

Very interesting comments at the end, the spice 'bags' always look so good when you see them and i always thought they would be so bloody good, cheers.

Thanks for the honesty - I will remember it when I am tucking in despite the health warning 😂

The end conclusion is so correct we just want something to fall asleep after eating and rehydration to be fighting fit for (work/the next sesh/both)

Fine Irish cusine. Nothing beats a spice-bag.

As an Irish man that can't drink, I still recommend a spice bag! You just have to be ready for it! 😅

Greetings from Dublin. It's so funny that you are making a spice bag so far away from an Irish Chinese takeaway!! I'm off to drink some Guinness!!

just had a spice bag a few days ago, was back there for a funeral. They are yum

Spice bag can be much simpler: Spices - mix of salt, five-spice & chilli flakes along with a few other bits (they now sell it pre-made here) Diced chicken - doesn't need to be breaded + bell pepper chunks + onion + a few small chillis and loads of the spice-bag mix .. tossed together in a wok until cooked Add some chips etc - and damnit .. It's mostly a "dry-rub" type spice set .. rarely served with curry sauce (unless you're paying extra for it! ) - though the chicken is usually breaded from the take-aways

The double bag is an absolute must as you drunkenly swerve through the sidewalks to ensure you don't rip it open and spill all over!. Looks great and can't wait for the next one!

As a spice bag/box regular, you did a great job. I want beer and a spice bag now and it is 10:48am.

I can definitely wait in line at 3am and order one of these! Hope to 'bag' one of your books Harry!

Harry, nailed it. That recipe is in the BAG my friend. Cant wait to see Fred's 3 course meal.🍺

Wow I am from.ireland and had several spices bags great work. Bag

might I suggest deep fringing in the wok next time? less likely to catch the oil alright.

Fantastic effort, doubt you would be capable of some of that if you were hungover or inebriated. Nailed the brief though, love that you put the oil in a drink bottle then pull out the 3lt container to fill the skillet. Nice brown paper bag meal. Looking forward to Fred's feast

Congratulations from Dublin, Ireland 🇮🇪! Great first effort. Next time use black bean sauce!!!!

Our local chinese only uses medium madras curry powder, they just add some chilli powder if you want hot. I most cases i find overly spicey food rather stupid as all you can really taste is the spices, it masks most other flavours and aromas, which was part of it's original use pre refrigeration when meat went off in hours rather than days. If you like it hot go for it just save money on getting the best quality chicken/beef/pork as the heat means you can not taste much of a differance to make it worth the extra bunt. Try looking up chipshop curry recipes that is most common i have found while pissed up, it cheap and tasty which is why the trailer parked outside of the clubs use it. Thanks for the video, take care, God bless one and all. BTW I buy Dinaclass - Irish Curry Sauce (5kg tub) £26.79 delivered to my door. 500 g (1lb) of mix to 2.5 litres (4 pints) of water. Bring to the boil while stirring and allow to simmer for 10-15 minutes.

Best looking meal in a “bag “ ive ever seen I want to make it this very minute

Great video...I laughed so hard as I saw your dog sneak up behind you before you did and then you saw him! LOL

"BAG" Bagalicous! Will definitely be cooking this on our next trip away 💯

Perfect for the hangover. Bag

Bag of bloody goodness right there!! I know you reckon not soo good but you KNOW when you drunk that would be the bomb !

For the first time watching. Cheers, absolutely brilliant episode. BAG

That's the best looking bag of food going around.

Seen pics of these posted on twitter, they always look so bloody good

Great setup, I'm from Dublin and I have never had a spice bag. I need to try it the next time I'm out out.

Looks like I'm cooking a spice bag tonight! Looks so good! Thanks 👍

Was about to say what a great way to feed the family with individual “BAG”. Then I watch till the end and might say it is probably a meal for a boys weekend. 😂

I've actually never been more proud to be irish

It's not greasy in Ireland. It's actually very dry. All the chicken & fries needed a whole lot of kitchen roll! Great vid.

Looks delicious. Would never of thought of the bottle shop BAG. Now I feel like beer too. 😂

Another episode in the bag, well done sir.

Bag! Want the book. You did good! Spice bags are common practice here in ireland. And they are lovely..

It’s a good camp meal 🔥

good on ya Harry, ya got that one in the bag!

And even if you don't have a dog, the bones can be used for stock. When you buy boneless, you're paying someone to do the labour. If you value your time more than the cost, you can buy boneless, but if your time is more abundant and you can do it, you can save you money deboning them.

Knocked it into the Bag ! Really looked yummy. Love the batter on the chicken - gotta give it a go :)

Best thing to have with a spice bag is Hot Honey sauce. Only sauce I let myself eat a spice bag with

"Bag" I would love your book.😮

Ha ha the drunk / hung over honesty makes all the difference!!!

I love the Irish well done Harry

Bag 😊😊 I think you also need to douse it in msg but honestly looks great 👍🏻 You’ve found your way onto Ireland side of KZfaq and have to say, thrilled to see you here!!

Garlic/ginger and sesame seeds added wound be even better ❤

So I'm a brummy (Birmingham, England) we get these salt and pepper chips, salt and pepper chicken all the time, try it with shrimp, it's incredible

Spice bag isn't a hangover cure. it's something you pick up from the local on your way home from the pub

I love how he is cold at 16 degrees but here in Ireland with it's shit mugginess this summer we're like "it'll do i guess" and wear shorts and rainjackets. But man this video was excellent! EDIT: You said "I'm a bit scattered"..........man you did more in that hungover activity than I have in the last 23 hungover activities.

the spicebag i get has this thai twist and its so good, everything is covered loads of this really spicy chilli chutney that just clears your sinuses right out, and it uses much thinner strips of chicken, try some msg on it aswell

coming from ireland I seen the title and automatically subscribed I love it mate ❤

Correct me if iam wrong(!), buti was under the impression that a "maryland" cut was the thigh and the leg as one joint............... just sayin' 😉😉😉😉😉

Loving the concept, I'll be giving this bag meal a crack for sure. Cheers mate.

Thanks Doctor Nick!

That ‘bag’ looks amazing!

Absolutely love watching your clips. Feeling inspired to try some of your recipes. Bag🎉🎉🎉🎉🙏

Would love to bag a copy of your book. Thanks mate.

"BAG" I used to get hamburgers from a mom and pop restaurant. They cooked in grease and placed in a brown bag. When I got home, the bag was solud grease. They were the best hamburgers I have ever eat.

I find greasy thick cut stringy bacon, a greasy egg just past raw oyster stage on fried thick cut bread toped with 50/50 Barby/Tomato sauce mixed. Excellent for an 8.00 am hangover. Your ready for the hair of the dog by 10.00. Going to have to try this Irish spice bag. Agree, bit of capsicum would add to the flavor. Interested to see how you pull up.

Looks so yummy in the " bag"

Looks so good,loved the " bag"
