Pratica di Shadowing: Uncle Roger CLAP BACK At This Chef (J. Kenji Lopez-Alt) - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

Uncle Roger found this fire rice video by this chef, J Kenji Lopez out The fire rice really good, but then I see he have comments off

And this the video description I have zero interest in Uncle Roger comments

So please don't make them and consider not making them in other places as well Hm, that a bit harsh I don't like

that his shtick seemed to give a free pass to people To imitate stereotypical Asian speech pattern and pronunciation Hiya,

nephew Kenji People have accent Accent is not stereotype.

Accent is just how we talk and how we live.

There's nothing wrong with having accent.

Especially as it almost always not Asian doing the imitating.

Sure, many people watch Uncle Roger video and then they imitate Uncle Roger's way of speaking.

And now they use Haiya and Fuyo in their daily life. That amazing!

Uncle Roger popularized Malaysian slang to the whole world.

Fuyo!

And when people imitate Uncle Roger like that, they're not making fun of me.

It all out of love And many Asian people imitate Uncle Roger also See this clip?

Where got one single white guy in there?

You try to find?

It's ugly It's yellow face It not funny

And it promote anti-Asian racism At a time

when Asians are already being heavily discriminated against It is not welcome here But right now,

everybody on TikTok trying to be Chinese baddie They drinking warm water Eating goji berry Doing Chinese medicine and everything

Asian people we so cool now.

And how can accent promote racism?

By that logic, every person in Asia with Asian accent, they all promote racism.

Uncle Roger traveled all over the world, meeting my niece and nephew.

The only Asian who complaining about my accent are Asian from California.

Haiyaa.

I think there's something wrong in water there.

Usually when people hear accent of where they from, it's a joyful experience.

This is their memory of growing up, our mom, dad, auntie, uncle, or relative all sound like this.

Uncle Roger and my nephew Nigel, we both from Malaysia.

I'm not embarrassed of myself or where I come from.

Sorry to hear that Asian accent make you sad.

When other comedian do Italian accent, it's a little mushroom, it works.

Imitate their Arab parent.

Why 95?

Where's the other five?

Or their Hispanic mom.

They think I'm the nanny.

I say no, I'm the mother.

Everybody love it.

Accent is fun.

Accent is part of keeping our culture alive.

Sorry I don't sound white like you nephew Kenji haiyaa Where you even from?

Boston

Enough talking, let's review fried rice

Hey everyone it's Kenji and I'm gonna fry some rice I'm using leftover chicken

that I did on my rotisserie You can just use leftover rotisserie chicken from the supermarket Okay, chicken fine And then this is leftover rice from one of those Leftover rice,

correct So it actually already has some, actually already has a little bit of like teriyaki sauce Yeah, a little bit of sauce in fine A little bit of

flavor This is day old Here's a trick I learned from Wang Gang If you don't follow Wang Gang,

he's a Sichuan chef who's great Fuyo!

Nephew Kenji loves Uncle Wang Gang also, nice!

See, don't hate me so much Nephew Kenji, we got something in common But by the way he pronounced Wang Gang Wang Gang?

Uncle Roger, no. I definitely more Asian than you.

Wang gang?

If you don't follow Wang gang?

Wang gang?

Sound like some sort of criminal organization.

The Wang gang, haiya You the one with the offensive accent Add a little bit of cornstarch to it Okay,

but cornstarch in rice, nice idea It dry out rice even more, good for fire rice Rice screens stay a little more separated Alright,

so I'm gonna take my wok Huh, interesting Rub a little bit of oil into it, not a ton right now Is this seasoning wok?

This is another trick I do

So I rub a film of oil into the wok and that's gonna be sort of our temperature gauge

So as soon as that oil That the cutest trash can, little what is that?

So as soon as that

So cute the little trash can smaller than kettle You must

have to empty it 20 times a day This is another trick I do

So as soon as that oil is smoking hot I know

that the wok is hot enough that I could add the rest of my oil That actually very nice idea

Because every time Uncle Roger make fire rice, I just use feeling, I know when can start cooking For beginner home cook making fire rice,

that a great trick to see when it hot enough to start cooking Very smart

If you try and add all your oil at the beginning and then heat your wok till it gets smoking hot

The oil burns and it tastes bad Correct, correct It doesn't work out so well

So you want to do it in kind of two separate phases So first we're going to do the egg

A little pinch of salt Salt good A little touch of MSG MSG nice for you White pepper?

White pepper good White pepper correct White pepper better for Asian dishes Black pepper is white people pepper

This stove very interesting What with that middle oval burner?

It looks so weird When do you cook with oval pan?

Who designed this?

They see now the oil smoking Ready to go soon.

All right, our wok is smoking hot.

Now we're gonna add quite a bit of oil for this egg.

Good, good.

Go in nice.

Get it in there.

You can really tell he good at cooking.

See, just one long take, no editing.

No cut.

Uncle Roger like this angle.

That egg is done.

Like I cooking there myself

And what the egg see is this The only time Uncle

Roger hear of POV is on the hut This is the first time I see it used for cooking Nice

That egg is done Hmm, he cooked egg separately, okay That okay also Alright,

let our wok reheat one more time Uncle Roger prefer cooking egg

and rice together Don't need to do so many dishes Oil go in again Couple tablespoons Now the rice go in okay,

but no aromatic no garlic no shallot nothing

100

Motion very nice So if you have an outdoor burner you can get that wok hay flavor, you know the smoky flavor If you don't

101

and you want to do my little torch trick you can get a torch like this This is good idea also

102

And see how smooth he light up his blowtorch This nephew Kenji can cook I know he hate me

103

and if this was last year, Uncle Roger would be more upset But this year, my new resolution is to have less hate in heart Most New Year resolutions fade by February

104

But real change don't come from becoming someone new It comes from small, consistent habits that create growth over time Like for me,

105

every morning now, Uncle Roger do my Tai Chi in part All the white people staring, but I don't care Therapy work the same way Many Asian

106

people don't believe in therapy We believe in suffering in silence

107

and then taking it out on your children

108

But Uncle Roger actually try it out It's so weird to talk about feeling But I feel better every time.

109

Now I see therapists every week.

110

Don't worry.

111

I'm still gonna be angry at Jamie.

112

Therapy cannot heal that.

113

I just used today's sponsor.

114

121

you can get a torch like this Light it up Nice idea Extra fire, extra heat What happens is the oil To create wok hay Sort of vaporizes

122

and singes And leaves kind of these sooty deposits Similar to what happens

123

when you cook a hamburger on a grill

124

And the fat kind of drips in And the flames come up

125

And it gives you

126

that kind of smoky grilled flavor That's part of what the flavor of Waukei is Some people say

127

if you blow torch rice like this The rice gonna end up smelling like butane gas And Uncle Roger say, don't be pussy, just eat butane It's not gonna kill you,

128

live a little Be a real man, eat some butane, drink some whiskey

129

And it gives you that kind of smoky grilled flavor That's part of what the flavor of Waukei is Alright

130

Got some that going on For your nephew Kenji cooking with one hand, building gas, talking and filming.

131

He multitasking like every motorcyclist in Vietnam.

132

In America, if you're texting and driving, you're gonna get stopped by police.

133

In Vietnam, if you're texting and driving, people gonna laugh at you because you're doing too little.

134

Oh nephew Kenji, Vietnam is this country in Asia.

135

But don't go there.

136

Everybody there got accent.

137

You're gonna be mad.

138

Push that up the side We get my scallops Okay, spring onion go in good And my chicken in there Chicken already cooked so going in later like this correct also

139

A little stir And remember this non-stick pan can use metal

140

Look at my peas, these are not actually even defrosted yet.

141

They're so small they're gonna...

142

Mmm, frozen pea, correct?

143

I really like frozen peas and fried rice.

144

I mean, I don't always do it, but I love it.

145

Pea, very classic fried rice ingredient.

146

Frozen pea always better than fresh pea.

147

Pea already not the most tasty ingredient.

148

If you buy fresh, it expires in three days, haiyaa.

149

152

Fresh pee is a waste of time.

153

Daughter loves it, so I just do it.

154

You can, you know, you can do whatever you want.

155

If you don't wanna, if you wanted to add other vegetables, say like, you know, chopped carrots or chilies, onions, celery, what you would do is,

156

no, no, no, don't add so much vegetable.

157

Before you put in the rice,

158

stir fry so much vegetable It's not salad Okay,

159

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
