    I love this recipe but I decided to tweak it a bit. Instead of using risotto I went with lovely ramen noodle. And I substituted the lamb with a delectable beef flavor packet that came with it. I then topped it of with a table spoon of I cant believe it's not butter. Just absolutely delicious.

      Chief Big Bob it’s fine to have preferences, and from what I’ve seen I doubt I’d like any of that either except for maybe what he made for Prince Phillip because everything I eat is usually spicy to some degree and most British and French cuisine is very creamy and personally eating stuff that has a ton of butter and cream is repulsive to me without spices like cumin, coriander, chili pepper or turmeric

    While Charles III loves Italian cuisine, his mother was quite the opposite. When Elizabeth II visited Italy in October 2000, she didn't want any food with garlic in it (which is typically in an Italian dish), but that wasn't the worst part! She didn't want long pastas like spaghetti nor tomato sauce either! She destroyed the Italian spirit harder than the time her country participated in the Allied invasion of it!

      You're looking at Italian food through an American lens. Garlic, long pasta shapes and tomato sauce aren't as important in Italy as they are in Italian-American cuisine.
      Also don't know whether she liked them or not, the reason she wouldn't have them at a formal event is that they're messy to eat, and garlic makes your breath stink.

      The prince of wales is a very simple, down to earth guy. He served in the Royal Navy with my grandfather, they shared a ship for a while. They are on a first name basis and have always stayed in touch with eachother, my grandfather and grandmother have often even bumped into charles and camilla while walking some of the famous Munroe mountains in Scotland.

    The recipes are awesome, but I think I really like these videos for the stories. It's so easy to think of the Royal Family as all being 'out there' in a larger in life way that makes you think of them as purely distant figures. Like they are more figures than living people with their own quirks and oddities and little foibles. These stories make it clear that behind all the pomp they are all so undeniably human.
