I'm a huge fan. 7 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: I had seen k D out at an event for 8 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: Lunelle and I whispered to my friend and I said, Dorn, 9 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: that's k D. Man. We gotta get k D on 10 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: the show. And you were so approachable and so sweet, 11 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,480 Speaker 1: and so I'm happy we finally worked it out to Plus, 12 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 1: I love the cook Yes, yes, that's what was one 13 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 1: of the first things you told me. We're like, oh yeah, cooky, Yeah, 14 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 1: let's do it. So what do you have us eating today? So? 15 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: Um today? What this is? I call this the fake 16 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 1: it till you make it chicken breast um and believe 17 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: you're not using an egg plant. You're actually able to 18 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: if you cut it properly, cut the right way, you 19 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: can feed like up to five or six really yeah, 20 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: And then you know you figure an egg plant. You 21 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: can get an egg plant for like less than two 22 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 1: dollars at the at the grocery store. And it's a 23 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: healthy alternative too. So I'm so curious how you have 24 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: a fake it to make it an eggplant, Like does 25 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: it give the same nutritional value kind of? And I'm sure. 26 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm a lover of vegetables and you know, um, 27 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 1: I always try to add like a healthier element to 28 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 1: to my food. So I mean, I would say that 29 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: it's probably a little more healthier, you know than a 30 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: chicken brass. People think that you think protein protein, you 31 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: think only meat, but you can get protein from vegetables too, 32 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: So who knows. I mean, I haven't done the calculations 33 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: on that. But so what what ingredients do you have? 34 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: So today I have one egg plant, I have three eggs. Um, 35 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: there's some progressive breadcrumbs Italian style, some salt, pepper, garlic powder, um. 36 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: And there's some olive oil. And with this you can 37 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: either use olive oil or cooking oil. Um. It tends 38 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: to fry better with cooking oil. So the difference between 39 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: olive oil, I hate to be that person, but what 40 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: is the difference between olive oil and cooking oil? Olive 41 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: oil is actually something you're not even really supposed to cook. 42 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: You're not supposed to. It's something more for like on 43 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 1: top of salads or you know. Yeah, but I mean 44 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: people cook with it too. It just has a heavier weight. Okay, 45 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: cary in it. You can fry in it. It's um, 46 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: it's gonna give you a different type of cooking oil, 47 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: give you more of a fluff of your crispy kind 48 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: of thing. This is just a little heavier. So we're 49 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: gonna destroy the dish. Uh No, we don't destroy it 50 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: because we're gonna make it work. We're gonna make it work. Okay. 51 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 1: So yeah, this is this is really this is really awesome. 52 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: Thank you so much. Yeah, no, thank you for coming. 53 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: And you were broke at some point correct, Well, yeah, 54 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: you know what in the beginning of my career, when 55 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: I decided that college wasn't gonna work, you know, I 56 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: had to make a decision, and I chose, um, this 57 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: career and this journey and um. You know you. I 58 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: tell people sometimes when you move to l A with 59 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: your dreams and your passions and things like that, no 60 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: matter how planned you are, no matter how much of 61 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: a budget you have set aside, housing, everything set up 62 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: it's almost like and I'm sure it's like this with 63 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: anything you're seeking in life, but you're always just gonna 64 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: have those moments, and those moments are what pretty much 65 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: make you know good, like make or break you or 66 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: something they make or break you. They give you the character, 67 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: they give you the tough skin, you know, and they 68 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: just give you moments where it makes you want to 69 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: fight harder and push harder. So okay, well let's get 70 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: to again. What do you need first? So here, let's see. Yeah, 71 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna need to stand from So we're gonna start 72 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: with the cutting board, right, can I put this here? 73 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: Going to move that plate over there? So, um, you 74 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: have your egg plant which has been washed off and 75 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,559 Speaker 1: all that good stuff, and so at the at the 76 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: fourth at the top of the egg plant where it 77 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 1: was connected to the stem, you just want to um 78 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: remove that. So you can just cut that off. And 79 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: sometimes I cut it at an angle just because if 80 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: I want to have some type of shape on the end, 81 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: but today it's not really an issue, so we're just 82 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: gonna take the top off there. So what I like 83 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: to do is it's kind of like lay it flat on, 84 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: like it's flat aside or whatever. Usually they're really all around, 85 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: so you know it's either here nor there, but or 86 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: you can stand it up, right. So what happens is 87 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: you just how many people do you want to feed? 88 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: Let's make up a number. Well, we're just feeding us, okay. 89 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: So and then if it's really good, you know, maybe 90 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: does the crew want to try this? Oh? Okay, whoa, Yes, 91 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: we'll make it for three. Yeah. Perfect. So here's the 92 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: seeds I was talking about. They're really really small, you 93 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: know what I mean. You can't really like and you 94 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: can eat the seeds, you can eat the whole thing. 95 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 1: So we're just gonna make these. So you just cut 96 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: all the way down and you see how thick that is. Yeah. 97 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: See that's your fake chicken rest, right. And so also 98 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: this dish really works well if you're trying to recreate, like, um, 99 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: a chicken parmesan. Oh yeah, so this would be like 100 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: a perfect substitute for that. So we're gonna cut one more. 101 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: See now this because I'm going a little bit thicker 102 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: for three people. But so far we've you know, we've 103 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: kind of got enough for We're gonna go for it 104 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: because we're gonna do I want to try it yeah. 105 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: When I say it's good, they come out from the 106 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 1: behind and they're like, let me try, let me try it. Right. 107 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: So you see, we have like we got enough to 108 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: feed a little family here right now. I could have 109 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 1: made this one like a little bit like thinner, right, 110 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: but this one too. You can use these these as well. 111 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 1: It's it's kind of like the end of the bread. 112 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: You know how there's that the butt at the end 113 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: of the bread. Some people are with it, some people aren't, 114 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: but right, and so you can also cut this off. 115 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: That will give it the same type of feel and 116 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: it will also it'll, um, I believe it will kind 117 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: of cook better because sometimes the skin takes a while, 118 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 1: it takes longer to cook. So now we have all 119 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: of our pieces. So next what we're gonna do is 120 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna grab our bowl, right and um, you know, 121 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: I'll move on, I'll move this. I'll be your little assist. 122 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: Thanks my sush chef. So we have a bowl here. 123 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 1: So you take your eggs, I mean, depending on how 124 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: many pieces, because if you had two egg plants wanted 125 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, that's how much you add 126 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: up your egg So we're gonna just crack an egg. Nice, 127 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: dump it in the bowl and grab Are you only 128 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: using one egg for this? I'm gonna use all three. 129 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: But you know again, it's like you really just can't 130 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: go wrong with um. Get this little piece of show 131 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: out of here. You can't go wrong. I mean I 132 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: could make it work with um, let's just say two 133 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: eggs to be safe, because see how that is right here, 134 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: and then it's fairly thin. But if you don't have 135 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: a lot of money and you only have like one egg, 136 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: you can make it work. But it would be it 137 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: would be tough because this is what's gonna make the 138 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: Italian bread crumb stick. So it's like the more the better. 139 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: These eggs are okay, it's fine. We can have shell 140 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: in are like no, no, no.

She showed either the end, 169 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: but I don't I think you either showed the end, 170 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: but you didn't know how either. You showed how to 171 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 1: make it or you showed them, but I remember I 172 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: just remember walking away. They like, but I still had 173 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: more questions. Are you sure I didn't show all that? Yeah, 174 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 1: because I remember saying or maybe you didn't show how 175 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 1: you did it. There was there was one video where 176 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: you had and it was like that. It was like, 177 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: that's the flower from a zucchini. Yes, you are really 178 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: really popular in France and you put people stuff cheese 179 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 1: in them and then you fry them. I watched it. 180 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 1: You you had a video online. Oh those were so good, 181 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: but I don't think you showed how you made it online. 182 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: I got to go back and look. Now, I'll probably 183 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: do if I if I see it, I'm gonna like 184 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: d M you and say, see this is the video 185 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: that had the cliffhanger that I was like, huh yeah, 186 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 1: because there was something missing and I remember being like 187 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: I think talking about but it wasn't finished, and I 188 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: was like, dang, I think I wanted to see you 189 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: eat it or something. Maybe do you watch those people 190 00:10:55,840 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: that eat like seafood online? My ba mog bang bang 191 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: bang bang. It is stuff I do, but then I 192 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:12,319 Speaker 1: want to go make my own. I'm like they do right, now. Um. 193 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, so I put the eggs in the bowl, 194 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,119 Speaker 1: and then what I did was I'm gonna put them 195 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: So you can do this any o kind of way. Um, 196 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: you can use a bowl, you can use a plate. 197 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: But what happens is you see how big these pieces are, 198 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: so they have to be able to fit inside of 199 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: where you put your egg, and then they have to 200 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: be able to fit, you know, where you put that. 201 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: So that's always something to take into consideration because you 202 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: can't this wouldn't necessarily fit in a bowl. Oh that's now, 203 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: see what I'm saying. So now that we have everything 204 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 1: set up, so let me go over here and show 205 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: you about this. Right the the seasoning. If you get 206 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: the progressive breadcrumbs, the Italian style, they're already season but 207 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: I always I tend to like to add a little 208 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: bit um more so sometimes a little if you add 209 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: like a little bit of black pepper, um, and then 210 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: you know, and these are also things that you can add. 211 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: Um at the end. I love garlic. I used I 212 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: use garlic a lot. Yeah, and so you can also 213 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: add some some garlic powder in there, just to season 214 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 1: that up a little bit. Um. So we're just gonna 215 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: just add that to that and then um, so as 216 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: far as like salt, salt is something that I'm gonna 217 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: just drift sprinkle on after because when you do fry things, 218 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 1: you lose a lot, You lose a lot of the 219 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: seasonings and and so forth. So I'm gonna just take 220 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 1: a wooden spoon here and I'm just gonna whisk the seasonings. 221 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 1: Just give it a light mix, you know what I'm saying, 222 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: Just so you get all your season things mixed them together, yeah, 223 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 1: and get up. It's it's just to even it out, 224 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 1: you know. So once you've done that, then you get 225 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: so we got to start the oil hunt. Yeah, I 226 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: probably should have done that a little bit sooner. But 227 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: it's totally fun, right, So this is it. Okay, So 228 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna and just so you know, like I'm actually 229 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: very passionate about, um, just teaching people how to eat 230 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: healthy and how you can do it where it's not expensive, 231 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: because you hear a lot of times people say they 232 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: want to eat healthy, but it's too expensive. And you know, um, 233 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 1: I'm a farmer's market girl, so uh And luckily for 234 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: me in France, I have friends and family over there 235 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: who who work at the farmer's market, and their business 236 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: is the vegetables. So if you follow me on Instagram 237 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: when I was there, there were times where I would 238 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: just go and give my family like bucks and I'm 239 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 1: coming out of there with like a crate of vegetables. 240 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: Yeah you're happy.

Yeah, I 245 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: always have Like I'm the opposite. You go on my 246 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: fridge and it's like, where's the vegetables. No, this is 247 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: just outside the frigerator. We haven't even got into the inside. 248 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: So yeah, it really turns me on to have lots 249 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: and lots of fresh produce and vegetables and stuff in 250 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: my house because that's where I get creative. So, speaking 251 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: of creates creativeness, let's talk about your career.

I used to be 332 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 1: represented by one of the top publicists in the game, right, 333 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:58,439 Speaker 1: and she had Whitney Houston, Hugh Jackman, huge people, and 334 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 1: this was my first experience and with the world of 335 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 1: publicity and things like that. Well, she wouldn't let me 336 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: do any black publicity, any black publicity. Oh you mean, 337 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 1: like any black press press? Why? And I and I 338 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: got frustrated about that, and you know, I'm paying you 339 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: twenty bucks a month and that was that was then, yeah, 340 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: you know, and so it was like and I'm just like, 341 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: I just was turned off by it, so I left 342 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: and it was like this, there was just I had 343 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: I worked with people like, um my agency, my first 344 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 1: agency was a very big agency, and I was I 345 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 1: was bringing in a lot of money and there were 346 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: certain people I couldn't get on the phone, and I'm 347 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: just like, are you serious? Like I'm not, I don't know, 348 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,199 Speaker 1: Like I was just like I don't like that. So 349 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: then you were like, I'm out. Yeah, And it probably 350 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: wasn't the best decision, but I was just me again, 351 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: I didn't plan any of this. Do you think those 352 00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: were good decisions looking back? Oh no, well kind one 353 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,679 Speaker 1: of them, yes, which on the publicity. Yeah, yeah, that 354 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,439 Speaker 1: was a good So I'm just like, damn, that sucks 355 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: because you're it was it was. It wasn't like an 356 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: ego thing either. It just I just like it wasn't 357 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 1: it wasn't fair, Like it wasn't fair. And if a 358 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: press person came to her and said, Hey, I want 359 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: a booquet D for my show or for my magazine, 360 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: she would turn it down before it got to you, 361 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 1: or she would and then ignore it turn it down. 362 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: But the thing is, it's like I had records, they 363 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,239 Speaker 1: gave me a breakdown every month of everything that came in. 364 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: Who called So I could see this, like, Hey, why 365 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: you run into people in the street. They're like, hey, 366 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 1: we've been trying to get you. We've been trying to 367 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:38,719 Speaker 1: get you. We've been trying to get you, and your 368 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: people keep you know. So it was kind of like 369 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: a thing like that, and I didn't not even know 370 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: that that sucks. But so so that was a good decision. 371 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: You say, yeah, I mean it might not have been. 372 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: You know, listen, so you think that handered your career 373 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: a little bit. I think it just kind of might have. 374 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 1: It makes me when stuff like that happens in my life, 375 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: it makes me um step back and just put everything 376 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: in perspective. And usually that's when I do ship. Like 377 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: what I just recently did was I'll go move to 378 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: another country because I've lived in several countries. Yeah, you 379 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,719 Speaker 1: packed up and you left. Yeah, like it left us 380 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: grow to get out of here. So like what was 381 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: going on where you were like that's it, I'm done. 382 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: I wasn't done. I just was like going on a 383 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: long vacation. I just was like I just want to 384 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: change the scenery. You know. It was like the industry, Hollywood. 385 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: The money was starting to get bad, we were getting 386 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: a new president and things are I was just starting 387 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: to feel I'm a forward thinker, so I can kind 388 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: of see things before they happened and in my mind 389 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: and according to me, and so I just felt like 390 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 1: I was like, Yo, this ship is getting crazy over here. 391 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 1: Was there like a pivotal point in your career where 392 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: you were like taking off, Like was there one particular 393 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: thing that like tipped it? There was a bunch of things. 394 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: I mean, like, I mean, you gotta you figure like 395 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: I was, I was like modeling, and then from the 396 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: modeling was commercials, and then from commercials it was like 397 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: the TV show, and then from the TV show it 398 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: was the movies, and then from the movies it was 399 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: like bigger campaigns. Like everything just it's it's been. It's 400 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: just it's just been an amazing it's been amazing, you know. 401 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: And so when I took that time off and went 402 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: to France, I'm so glad I did that because now 403 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: it's like I was able to step outside of all 404 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: of this and I don't watch TV. And then over there, 405 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: I don't watch TV because I couldn't understand it. I 406 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 1: can now because I speak the language, but in the 407 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: beginning I couldn't understand it. So you know, I just 408 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: was watching through social media and what my friends were saying, 409 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: and you know, it just gave me a different perspect 410 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: um five years wow. So what's the next step of 411 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 1: this dish? Well, so the heat's been the oil has 412 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 1: been sitting on here, so I just took it off 413 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,679 Speaker 1: just a little calm down a little bit. So when 414 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 1: you want to check your oil, you can just grab 415 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: some of your crumbs and just drop it in there. Oh, 416 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: it's not too toopath. But this is olive oil. You 417 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: smell it kind of yeah, I smell it. I'm choking 418 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: up over it. I love olive oil. I like to 419 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: put it on my bread um. So yeah, so we're 420 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: just gonna grab one of these, right, and then we're 421 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: gonna just drop it in the eggs. So what happens is, well, 422 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 1: just you want to just make sure that you've like 423 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 1: saturated in the egg. Yeah. Now, let me tell you 424 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 1: I just made this recently, right, and I tried something 425 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: and it kind of worked, but it didn't work. And 426 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you. I minced up some garlic and 427 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: I put it in the egg just because I love 428 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 1: garlic and I just wanted to see how it does. 429 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 1: But you have to know when you cook with garlic, 430 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: garlic cooks fast when you're frying brown. Yeah, and then 431 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: it gives a bad smoke flavor and stuff like that. 432 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, you know, just this is like 433 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: your glue, right, the egg is like your glue, just 434 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: like it is with anything. And then, um, you don't 435 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: mind if you can use the hands. Yeah, And so 436 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: we're just gonna like drop this. Let me just check 437 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: this oil really fast. There we go. So we're gonna 438 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: just drop this into our um bread crumbs, and then 439 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: we're just gonna like push it down a little bit 440 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: just to make sure that it gets on there. And 441 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: then you know, the skin of the eggplant, you want 442 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: to like make sure you get that covered. See how 443 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 1: you cover the oh, I see like the outside rim, Yeah, 444 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 1: because it gives it's really tasty when you do it. 445 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: See how it's starting to look like a chicken breast? 446 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,360 Speaker 1: Is it's looking official? Just kidding? But yeah, can can 447 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: the camera see that? Or no? Let me lift it up. 448 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: I mean it looks official. It looks like it could 449 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 1: be like chicken parmeers on it, right, see, so it's 450 00:24:55,000 --> 00:25:02,199 Speaker 1: like yeah, sure, right, so that's pretty much what it 451 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: looks like before you fry it. And then on the 452 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 1: sides you just want to make sure that you cover 453 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 1: the skin really really well. I'm gonna just get put 454 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: a little bit more here, and then I think on 455 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 1: the back, no more do you think? So yeah, let's 456 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: put a little bar. It's getting a little messy here. 457 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: But that's that's why a bowl sometimes just to control 458 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,360 Speaker 1: it perfect and then we're just gonna drop it. Oh 459 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,679 Speaker 1: there we go. So how long does this usually have 460 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: to cook for? It just depends on you know sometimes 461 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 1: when you cook on these stoves versus like um, the 462 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,479 Speaker 1: gas stove, you just gotta watch it. You know. It's like, 463 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 1: I does that have to get mushy on the inside, No, 464 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 1: it's just gonna it's gonna get kind of a firm like. Okay, 465 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: So tell us more about like your upbringing, because I 466 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,719 Speaker 1: want to get into all the oh, and then make 467 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: sure your oil is hot or all your stuff will 468 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: kind of it's like frying fish. You want your oil 469 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,919 Speaker 1: to be hot when you put it in, because if 470 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: your oil is not hot, all this will fall off 471 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: all the all the stuff that you had, the egg 472 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:29,160 Speaker 1: and the and the bread crumbs will fall off that. Yeah. 473 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: So when you're frying fish, frying chicken hot, yeah, you 474 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: want it to be really the oil to be really 475 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: hot so that everything stays. Is it cooking right? Yeah, 476 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 1: it's cooking right. So if this were like the canola 477 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: oil or the cooking oiler, you just kind of see 478 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: more of the bubbles and the this is how you 479 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: can see olive oil is more heavier then. But yeah, 480 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna work for sure. So how was it working 481 00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 1: with Cat Williams? It was awesome.

You don't pay attention. That's what happens 523 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: when you talk. Yeah, I see. I normally don't talk 524 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: like this because I'm really know trust me. On this show, 525 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: this is a constant challenge, like people get off there 526 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: like talking and cooking talking. It's hard. It's smoky. It's 527 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: smoky up in here. Katie's Katie's smoking up the kitchen. 528 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 1: You know you can have tongs right there. Oh that's girl, 529 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: because there's such it's such a different place. She's over here. 530 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 1: You can be the first, no, the first again, So 531 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: for all y'all listeners are insurances very questionable. So she 532 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: burns herself. We're in a lot of trouble. Oh no, 533 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: I'm fine. I've burned myself before I had third degree burns. 534 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: Here nice. You can't really see it anymore, but sometimes 535 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: in camera. There's been a movie or two that I've 536 00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: actually seen it. But I was young when I was um, 537 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: you know what, that would have been a great recipe, 538 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: but it's really fast. So back and when I was 539 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: younger and my my parents weren't home and I needed 540 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: to cook, I was old enough to be home by myself. 541 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: But there was this one time it cooks, well, you're 542 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: gonna burn your fingers. I'm not girl. I do this. 543 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: This is what I do. Sometimes. It's good to put 544 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: a napkin on here, just to absorb the oil. The 545 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: plate that you're gonna put your your your egg plant 546 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: on when you're finished, that's just okay. And then look 547 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: see how you push it. Oh yeah, and that's how 548 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 1: you can tell that looks like a real good egg. 549 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 1: It's gonna be better when you see the other side. Okay, 550 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: before we try this, I need to get some golden 551 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: stories about your broke days. Wait, okay, so there was 552 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: a um, there was a time when I was at 553 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: home by myself and I had to make make me 554 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: something to eat. Right, So I'm on the phone. And 555 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 1: this was back when the phones had the spiral cord 556 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 1: connected to it. So, um, someone had told me about 557 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,040 Speaker 1: this way you can cook you know those little and 558 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: iss frozen burritos.

Yeah. When I first moved right, okay, 563 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: well you can fry those? Did you fry it? I 564 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: would Mike Waven girl, you can, Friday. I didn't know 565 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: you can. First of all, when the time when I 566 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: was buying old burritos, I barely knew what the stove 567 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: was in my house. Fast, Why don't you guys know 568 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: you can fry those. I don't know if you've ever 569 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: had it. But it's really good. And this is gonna 570 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: this is gonna be really a bizarre thing, but it's 571 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: really good. So I was like maybe with thirteen or something, 572 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: and I'm on the phone and I'm talking and I'm 573 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 1: not paying attention, and I had a saucepan and I 574 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: put some frying oil in it, and I forgot about 575 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: it cause I'm on the phone, so I'm talking, talking, talking, Yeah, yeah, yeah. 576 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 1: I go on the freezer, grabbed the frozen burrito. Frozen burrito. 577 00:31:56,320 --> 00:32:00,479 Speaker 1: The phone doesn't reach the stove, so I toss it. 578 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 1: Oh no, and it's frozen. Doesn't that mean splashy splash slash. 579 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: So all that hot grease, see you can still all 580 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: that hot grease just landed on my hand, and I 581 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: don't know, I turned into like Michael Jackson or something 582 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: because it was like I just started like shaking, shaking 583 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 1: my hand and next thing, you know, the skin skin 584 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: just started hanging. Yeah. And then I'll be careful, I know, 585 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: I turned it down and so then once I um, 586 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: once the skin finished like doing this hanging thing, then 587 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 1: it turned into like oil. Yeah. So it was a nightmare. 588 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: But I learned a lot that day. Yeah, I learned 589 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: about that was the first time I learned about water 590 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: and hot oil splash experience. So water and oil and 591 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: then our friends. Okay, I'm not really like when it 592 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 1: comes to cooking, I really don't cook in a way 593 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 1: that most people do.

You just put it directly. 600 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: But then when it drips, I make a drip pan 601 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: out of oil and I just kind of fold up 602 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 1: the side.
