I was thinking it might be fun if you did a "mystery night in" where you plan a night like the mystery night out videos, but for stuff you can do at home! I could definitely use some inspiration for some foodie/fun nights at home these days, and you wouldn't need to draw willies this time 😅
@@SortedFood Nothing that contains milk, especially not boiled milk, can be described as amazing - and it would be horribly sweet, too.... you may drink my share, and I'll stick to Earl Grey with lemon!
@@AnnabelSmyth There's a way to control the sweetness. That chai recepie is a staple in India. At homes and outside in tea stalls, it's drunk by everyone. It's just boiled milk, not condensed milk. It's really not that sweet if you control the amount of sugar put in it. But you do you, EaRl gReY wItH lEmON!
@@AnnabelSmyth I normally loathe milky tea or coffee and have mine firmly black and unsweetened, but I tasted Dishoom’s chai in-house (with oat milk) when a friend ordered it, and I was shocked at how much I enjoyed it. Plus it’s bottomless in the restaurant, so as many free refills as you want! I’m excited to go back to Dishoom at some point in the future and order my own! :)
I've said that a few times too on pre-prepped meals, be they all the way or I cook what was prepped for me to cook. Also, I'd call those Fajitas, not tacos, but I'm north Texan.
The suggested serving portions on ‘sharing’ items are ignored by everyone because they’re never sufficient for normal people, but our interpretation of a suitable serving and Jamie’s idea of a suitable serving are very different 😂😂 to satisfy Jamie’s appetite and leave him fulfilled after a meal, he needs to quadruple the suggested serving on any product because he’s far from what suppliers deem a ‘regular’ human 😂
I wonder whether Ebbers had any involvement with James and Janice’s romance never reaching second base and progressing 😂😂 I reckon Janice and Ebbers were spending a lot of time together and she’s rubbing off on him because he’s getting sassier by the minute 😂
Reminds me of one time at work. We had a jar of some flaky looking spice, but it wasn't labeled. So I did what I usually do when I can't identify something. I shook it up and took a good sniff... It was super hot chili flakes. That burned... a lot.
If there was a single phrase to describe Barry’s typical cooking performances, it would undoubtedly be that 😂😂 I love that his approach is to prepare the dish and cover it with pretentious ingredients, it’s like rolling a turd in glitter 😂😂 his dish might be masked by pretentious ingredients to make it look pretty but it’s still a turd, doesn’t matter how it’s dressed up it’s still a hot mess 😂
Also, that ‘Chaiwallah’ thing Ben was talking about really makes the Chai frothier and also cools it down a bit. It isn’t exactly cold but it’s not scalding your tongue either.
@@SortedFood It is much appreciated. I do enjoy these meal kits as they are not available in Australia from what I am aware, though they are often pretty darn expensive if you do a straight currency conversion as it doubles the value ie, 30 pounds is around $60 AUD, still, they would make for an interesting treat. I do miss the old videos where you actually cooked meals we can learn from and offered the recipes, such as your Lea and Perrins series of fav recipes I've grown up with, Lasagne, shepherds pie, spagbol and steak and mushroom pies. I am not keen on the roulette cooks nor the interruption gags as I just want great new recipe ideas and don't like them needlessly spoiled by gags. Even when these guys make really nice looking dishes, the recipes are rarely offered 😥
Loved the bacon roll kit. The taco kit was great too, and beautifully executed. I really like the no-waste aspect. Chicken burgers are a bit more trouble, but again, no waste and nothing missing. The most appealing aspect is that no thought/planning/shopping/recipe development needed -- a really good reason to support local chefs this way.
There's a bunch of plastic waste though?! 🤨 that's way worse than food waste. Also, there might not be any food waste at your end, but there's definitely waste caused in the production of those kits. It's not no-waste just because you can't see the waste.
You know you've watched too many Sorted videos when you move forward and try to smell the chai tea brewing! Oh my. Quarantines got me all silly in the head.
@@micheljohnson-figueredo8627 that's not how it works. People need money to buy food and Pay rent. My own job told us our jobs were safe but we weren't getting Paid if we quarantined without medical necessity. The American economy is more important than the American citizen. Doesn't work the same as it does elsewhere. Can't jst not work. That's not how it works.
I greatly prefer crisping tortillas a little in a dry skillet than microwaving them!! Especially with corn tortillas like you’ve got it makes them much sturdier and tastier!! It looks like Ben is having a little trouble with his falling apart 😉
I love how you are all helping your local restaurants and giving people the knowledge that there are food kits out there. Good on ya! Stay safe everyone.
Dhishoom was the first place in the UK where the food really felt like home. Good to see other fans of it, and GREAT to see Ben call it chai and not 'masala chai'! I once bought a bunch of beers and wines for friends coming over and (as they were all learning the difficulties of drinking on Sunday evenings as working adults) they ignored the alcohol in favour of my making them 3 litres of masala chai. We all sat around the kitchen like a bunch of retired uncles and aunties and had a grand time. :D
Love masala chai. I keep trying, but it never tastes as good as my fave Indian restaurants. I use cardamom pods, cinnamon sticks, cloves, fresh ginger, a couple peppercorns & sugar. Plus tea & milk. Not a fan of anise, so always omit it.
@@kayjacoby290 Hey! I know a bit late. But do bruise the spices or better still crush them all in a mortar and pestle. The add them to water with sugar. Wait for it to come to a boil then add the tea powder(use an Indian/Asian brand if possible) reduce the heat. Let it simmer for a few minutes till you can smell the aroma of tea and spices then add the milk. Let it come to boil then switch it off if you want a light tea but if you want it stronger let it come to a boil twice. I hope this helps. This method I have perfected after trial and error and works for me. Hope it does the same for you.
p.p.s You could use a ready tea masala powder available on Amazon. It is pretty good if you are in a hurry and don't want to go the whole freshly-pound-spices route. I add a pinch of this in addition to the fresh spices in my tea. It tastes da bomb
Jamie: “That tastes like Tequila.” Barry: “But I don’t feel like throwing up!” For details of drunk story, watch the boys playing ‘Never Have I Ever’ featuring Grace Helbig.
@@PokhrajRoy. No, I try not to ship normal people. (I say TRY not to even though I do, but at the time I didn't know the SORTed crew well enough to ship them with Grace or Mamrie... I was probably shipping Grace and Hannah though...cause who hasn't shipped Grace and Hannah...)
I think this is a fantastic thing to do. It helps out businesses and also makes it easier for people to get things at home too without the fear of going out. Especially since there was a rise again in people getting sick (tis the season for the flu anyway). We have ordered delivery a lot since the lockdown back in March because going to the store all the time like I did before just doesn't feel safe. I only go out when I HAVE to. So you guys doing this is really excellent and for those who were thinking of getting things from the places you are talking about, they get to see it before they get it. Kudos gents!
Can't wait for the new kitchen lads. How you manage to produce the quality of food you do, considering that you have (let's be honest) a crappy old electric cooker, is amazing.
@@anne-marie9842 I agree, and I'm in the same boat. But I think they deserve an upgrade after all these years. It amazes me how they do the ultimate battles whilst all having to share the same oven and hobs.
Thank you soooo much Sorted, for all the new content, and the old; you've kept all your fans sane by publishing so much new content every week! We all love you and appreciate all the hard work gone into bringing us these lovelies! Thank you 🥰
Ben: "I don't know, do you want me to call them" at the end was hysterical! The answer you give a kid when they keep pestering you with silly questions...LOL!
Exactly. So when they say that 8 quid for a burger is not bad, they forget that that is pretty much what you pay at Nando's. There is no comparison between what they made and Nando's lol.
@@Karma-qt4ji honestly, I think it goes the opposite way, they're praising a chef-designed kit for being the same price as your nandos, while being much higher quality
@@artekfrost You have missed my point completely. What I was saying is that if you pay 8 quid for Nando's, then 8 quid for each of these burgers is an absolute bargain. They say it is "not bad" but I was pointing out that you can only get a single shitty Nando's burger for that price.
wrt recycling, the takeaway boxes are great for freezing portions, also soaking pulses, beans, etc. They last for ages. The more flimsy plastic pots like those you get mushrooms in can be used for mise en place, cat water bowls, herb water bowls. You can reuse salad boxes for salad, prawn boxes for toiletries when travelling, etc. They don't last forever but they're definitely not single use.
Thanks guys since we are back in lockdown here in Ontario Canada its back to our own restaurant box's and ordering... Thanks for putting a smile back on my face..♥️
Sorted eating food I’ve actually tried made me very excited! The marinade on that jerk chicken is insane. The scotch bonnet chilli jam was also super tasty. The buns were a little hard, but overall good!
I've tried the Cote meal kit with my family and it was absolutely delicious!! 4 of my family had Chateaubriand steak with fries and a side of veg, and then I had the prawn linguine with my dad. We also had garlic bread to start and chocolate crepes for dessert and I think for the 6 of us it came to about £90, which I didn't think was horrific for a really filling 3 course meal from a nice restaurant! We've paid that much for a takeaway from our lock Indian before - would highly recommend!
Restaurants’ DIY kits are a wonderful idea! You get to enjoy the delicious food in the safety of your home, while getting a sense of accomplishment for cooking that meal by yourself and helping your local restaurants to stay afloat. It’s too bad that restaurants in my country are not doing any of these things. There’s also, of course, the issue of pricing. Right now I’m trying to make the most with what I have, which is considerably less than a year ago, doe to the pandemic. I’m not sure I could afford a restaurant kit, which is too bad.
Had that bacon nan roll the other day got it as a bday present and was absolutely class I loved it haven’t seen what you thought off it yet but probably loved it as well ✅ keep up the amazing content guys really love all the videos
As someone who reheats tortillas quite a bit in the microwave you really don't need to use the cling film. Just wrap a whole stack of them in a damp (not wet) paper towel and you're totally fine.
You know what would be interesting? There are a ton of grocery delivery options in the UK. With the situation we are in, a review of a few of them might be nice. Maybe give the normals a £20 budget, and have them buy ingredients to make a meal. You can then check for things like delivery speed, availability of choice, order accuracy and ingredient quality, and see which one is the best.
Great stuff you can get from any Korean restaurant is _kimbap._ It's Korean picnic food, so it's served cold, travels well, and you don't need chopsticks to eat it. Plus, since it's seaweed and rice around a filling, there's all manner of combinations you can find. My personal favorite is a barbecue sauced grilled Spam with kimchi radish and stir-fried burdock. Lovely stuff.
Wish we could do that here in Germany, but where I live we can't even use the Trashbags from 2019 in 2020 or from 2020 in 2021 even if we have like half a role left; the stuff won't get picked up but instead get a sticker saying "I couldn't go because: [Reason]"
I wanted to say a big THANK YOU to the sorted team. I have been going through chemotherapy since August and have been feeling rather horrible. Your videos have helped to keep me entertained, made me laugh and brightened my dark days. I would love to shout you all a drink one day as a thank you. You all seem like great blokes. :-)
@@twinkle7389 thanks. I have finished the chemo and am cancer free. I did have to have surgery as well to remove some growths last year. I'm hoping to get through this year cancer free. I'm still recovering from it though as it puts quite a toll on your body!
I love these videos so much - thank you for the continuing and excellent content, as always! I'm wondering if the boys might possibly do a video on Iranian/Persian cuisine; from their previous excursions and preferences (e.g. their trip to Dubai, the Irani restaurant in this video), I really think they will enjoy Persian food and the culture behind it immensely!
Ah these are great things I'd be getting for Christmas either for gifts or for myself. I want to be a baker, I'm great at making bread and I love making it but I want to get better at other things aswell
This me but with cakes I have made classic bread rolls and a babka - soda bread is my next venture lol Trying to bake alongside bake off and failling cos of a sheer lack of time 😂 Edit: I'm not saying that I find it difficult or anything it's just having the time, ingredients and effort at the same time that is hard
@@nat3007 oh lol I'm not whoops didn't realise it sounded like that. I'm in my final year of school (year 13) so I just have a lot on ugm? Also I make my own buttermilk lol (make my own butter)
You know there are about 42 billion recipes on the web, and you can buy all the stuff in shops, right? I cook things I bought and eat them, and I'm not sold on these 'restaurant kits' that allow restaurants to sell their food without all the overheads. OK so they drop two quid off the portion price and people think they're getting a bargain. But then they have to do all the work themselves. Nice little sting, restaurants. Also, wtf with all this 'support the hospitality industry'? All the hospitality industry has ever done for me is overcharge me for everything I've ever consumed, and now they want to be treated like nurses? GTFO. It's not hospitality when you're paying for it, that's just commerce. The restaurant business is hospitality like one step down from the Red Wedding.
I made some deep-fried chicken thigh burgers a couple of weeks ago that was absolutely magical. Me and my cousin overate to the point that we almost needed help getting out of the sofa, it was amazing. Made a tempura seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika powder, cayenne pepper and chili flakes. Deep-fried some potatoes in two rounds as well, first on lower heat then finished them on 175°C after the chicken thighs were done.
Wow top videos as always. Been following you guys from 2011 and you guys have been changed my life forever. I live in a deep southeast asian country and would never know what a bechamel or roux or custard and etc is, if you guys didn't make any videos. So thank you for all that years and knowledge, keep up the good work!😁
just wanna say that i love you, guys!! recently watching your videos has been of great company to me during tough times, so thank you for your amazing work ♥️ (I've never been this early, OMG??)
Bacon naan and chai order for the start of December... I cant wait. These video have been my favourite thing to watch recently! I'd love to see more of these.
I've got an idea for a pass it on. Go in the order Ben, Jamie, Mike, Berry, James. No one else knows what the theme is except the first person. Have the theme be "Do nothing, but grab flour.." And see just see what happens. See what the normals come up with.
Ok, so when I visited London the first time, I had as a goal to visit Dishoom, and I loved it so much I ended up visiting them TWICE. First for lunch, second time to get that sweet, sweet chai. The second I saw this kit I kinda just started to cry in my soul. I can smell the chai. This is like a specialised hell specifically aimed to torment me.
There is a "fancy" grocery store chain (The Fresh Market) that makes a family meal kit for $20 they change it up every week they give you a main and sides for 4 people sometimes the include dessert. Last time we got it it was gourmet burgers (we chose bacon cheddar ones), cheese, buns and cold salad (i.e. pasta salad or potato salad...). Its a way to show people stuff from all parts of the store: buns from bakery, meat from the butcher, salad from the deli counter.
"welcome to fridge cam" used to make sense when the camera was in the fridge.. am I the only one to notice they've stopped doing that but still kept the opening line?
I feel like something that should be remembered with these kits is that you would pay a similar amount or more for a frozen/prepackaged dinner kit at the supermarket. So for a simple dinner that supports local in the process, it's pretty great.
The Spicery is based in Bristol (UK) and is an organisation I'd recommend, it does some delicious spice blend meal kits from around the world. They make super affordable and interesting gifts which I think delivers across the UK and they work with a refugee charity to help integrate them into a new society which is pretty cool

Exactly. So when they say that 8 quid for a burger is not bad, they forget that that is pretty much what you pay at Nando's. There is no comparison between what they made and Nando's lol.
@@Karma-qt4ji honestly, I think it goes the opposite way, they're praising a chef-designed kit for being the same price as your nandos, while being much higher quality
@@Karma-qt4ji Nandos chicken is really poor quality.
@@artekfrost You have missed my point completely. What I was saying is that if you pay 8 quid for Nando's, then 8 quid for each of these burgers is an absolute bargain. They say it is "not bad" but I was pointing out that you can only get a single shitty Nando's burger for that price.
@@SamuriLemonX18 I know. Read my statement again, then read my comment to @artekfrost. I was saying exactly what you are.
wrt recycling, the takeaway boxes are great for freezing portions, also soaking pulses, beans, etc. They last for ages. The more flimsy plastic pots like those you get mushrooms in can be used for mise en place, cat water bowls, herb water bowls. You can reuse salad boxes for salad, prawn boxes for toiletries when travelling, etc. They don't last forever but they're definitely not single use.
Ooh, I’m loving this series! I can already tell this is going to be good, keep it up!
They all look bloody marvellous. The naan bacon buttie!!! Omg.
“Flipping heck you made a calzone” I’m dead 😂😂😂😂
I love you guys. You make me happy when im really sad. Your videos are like my comfort food. Love you guys please keeping all of us happy❤️
I deeply felt everyone's collective chai sigh.
Thanks guys since we are back in lockdown here in Ontario Canada its back to our own restaurant box's and ordering... Thanks for putting a smile back on my face..♥️
"The traditional naan shape". But will the universe implode if you call it "naan-standard"?
Sorted eating food I’ve actually tried made me very excited! The marinade on that jerk chicken is insane. The scotch bonnet chilli jam was also super tasty. The buns were a little hard, but overall good!
I've just eaten, however, looking at these delicious restaurant kits I'm already hungry again.
I've tried the Cote meal kit with my family and it was absolutely delicious!! 4 of my family had Chateaubriand steak with fries and a side of veg, and then I had the prawn linguine with my dad. We also had garlic bread to start and chocolate crepes for dessert and I think for the 6 of us it came to about £90, which I didn't think was horrific for a really filling 3 course meal from a nice restaurant! We've paid that much for a takeaway from our lock Indian before - would highly recommend!
Anyone else realize you're only a few minutes from a new Sorted video and just sit there waiting?
Restaurants’ DIY kits are a wonderful idea! You get to enjoy the delicious food in the safety of your home, while getting a sense of accomplishment for cooking that meal by yourself and helping your local restaurants to stay afloat. It’s too bad that restaurants in my country are not doing any of these things. There’s also, of course, the issue of pricing. Right now I’m trying to make the most with what I have, which is considerably less than a year ago, doe to the pandemic. I’m not sure I could afford a restaurant kit, which is too bad.
Just in time for christmas! These are great gift ideas.
Had that bacon nan roll the other day got it as a bday present and was absolutely class I loved it haven’t seen what you thought off it yet but probably loved it as well ✅ keep up the amazing content guys really love all the videos
Jamie is my spirit animal. "Says 4 but never believe the package"
As someone who reheats tortillas quite a bit in the microwave you really don't need to use the cling film. Just wrap a whole stack of them in a damp (not wet) paper towel and you're totally fine.
You know what would be interesting? There are a ton of grocery delivery options in the UK. With the situation we are in, a review of a few of them might be nice. Maybe give the normals a £20 budget, and have them buy ingredients to make a meal. You can then check for things like delivery speed, availability of choice, order accuracy and ingredient quality, and see which one is the best.

Great stuff you can get from any Korean restaurant is _kimbap._ It's Korean picnic food, so it's served cold, travels well, and you don't need chopsticks to eat it. Plus, since it's seaweed and rice around a filling, there's all manner of combinations you can find. My personal favorite is a barbecue sauced grilled Spam with kimchi radish and stir-fried burdock. Lovely stuff.
I'm here for Barry's turtleneck.
Love the support you lot give small businesses really wholesome
Yep, reuse. I reuse "single" use grocery bags as trash bags.
Wish we could do that here in Germany, but where I live we can't even use the Trashbags from 2019 in 2020 or from 2020 in 2021 even if we have like half a role left; the stuff won't get picked up but instead get a sticker saying "I couldn't go because: [Reason]"
Used litter. I couldn't have a cat without them.
@@marymaryquitecontrary
Until all our cats died, cat litter went in them the most.
I wanted to say a big THANK YOU to the sorted team. I have been going through chemotherapy since August and have been feeling rather horrible. Your videos have helped to keep me entertained, made me laugh and brightened my dark days. I would love to shout you all a drink one day as a thank you. You all seem like great blokes. :-)
Hope you're doing better Samantha. Stay strong!
@@twinkle7389 thanks. I have finished the chemo and am cancer free. I did have to have surgery as well to remove some growths last year. I'm hoping to get through this year cancer free. I'm still recovering from it though as it puts quite a toll on your body!
@@samanthapartridge1290 I'm so glad to hear that! Sending lots of positive energy your way.
@@twinkle7389 Thank you, much appreciated!
What’s up with the saturation on your camera? That avocado was BRIGHT green. (The lettuce and cilantro/coriander too)
maybe it's just the lighting they use? Or how they colour grade the videos after?
I thought the same thing! Almost cartoon like. If it’s not the lighting I need to find better avocados.
I love these videos so much - thank you for the continuing and excellent content, as always! I'm wondering if the boys might possibly do a video on Iranian/Persian cuisine; from their previous excursions and preferences (e.g. their trip to Dubai, the Irani restaurant in this video), I really think they will enjoy Persian food and the culture behind it immensely!
Ah these are great things I'd be getting for Christmas either for gifts or for myself. I want to be a baker, I'm great at making bread and I love making it but I want to get better at other things aswell
This me but with cakes
I have made classic bread rolls and a babka - soda bread is my next venture lol
Trying to bake alongside bake off and failling cos of a sheer lack of time 😂
Edit: I'm not saying that I find it difficult or anything it's just having the time, ingredients and effort at the same time that is hard
@@janani1826 Don't be scared of Soda bread it's easier than you think. If you can't find buttermilk sour normal milk with lemon juice.
@@nat3007 oh lol I'm not whoops didn't realise it sounded like that.
I'm in my final year of school (year 13) so I just have a lot on ugm?
Also I make my own buttermilk lol (make my own butter)
@@janani1826 good luck I remember the stress of that.
You know there are about 42 billion recipes on the web, and you can buy all the stuff in shops, right? I cook things I bought and eat them, and I'm not sold on these 'restaurant kits' that allow restaurants to sell their food without all the overheads. OK so they drop two quid off the portion price and people think they're getting a bargain. But then they have to do all the work themselves. Nice little sting, restaurants.
Also, wtf with all this 'support the hospitality industry'? All the hospitality industry has ever done for me is overcharge me for everything I've ever consumed, and now they want to be treated like nurses? GTFO. It's not hospitality when you're paying for it, that's just commerce. The restaurant business is hospitality like one step down from the Red Wedding.
I made some deep-fried chicken thigh burgers a couple of weeks ago that was absolutely magical. Me and my cousin overate to the point that we almost needed help getting out of the sofa, it was amazing. Made a tempura seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika powder, cayenne pepper and chili flakes.
Deep-fried some potatoes in two rounds as well, first on lower heat then finished them on 175°C after the chicken thighs were done.
I got the Philly cheese steak one from the last ep. Expensive but very good. Hot wings were great too.
Oooooh nice!!! We're glad you enjoyed it :)
Really interesting video - just bought the Dishoom Bacon Roll kit as an early Christmas present for my brother-in-law! Excited for him to try it :D
My personality type is ‘Jamie eating a Whole Burger because he wants it’.
Wow top videos as always. Been following you guys from 2011 and you guys have been changed my life forever. I live in a deep southeast asian country and would never know what a bechamel or roux or custard and etc is, if you guys didn't make any videos. So thank you for all that years and knowledge, keep up the good work!😁
Barry looked like the he was terrified of the naan 🤣
just wanna say that i love you, guys!! recently watching your videos has been of great company to me during tough times, so thank you for your amazing work ♥️
(I've never been this early, OMG??)
You know it's good when Ben goes, "OOOOOOO", and bad when he goes "Ohh".
Frijoles borrachos are definitely one of my favorite sides! So so good
I would love this, but there aren't any restaurants i know that do this over here in the netherlands
Bacon naan and chai order for the start of December... I cant wait. These video have been my favourite thing to watch recently! I'd love to see more of these.
I've got an idea for a pass it on. Go in the order Ben, Jamie, Mike, Berry, James. No one else knows what the theme is except the first person. Have the theme be "Do nothing, but grab flour.." And see just see what happens. See what the normals come up with.
Ok, so when I visited London the first time, I had as a goal to visit Dishoom, and I loved it so much I ended up visiting them TWICE. First for lunch, second time to get that sweet, sweet chai.
The second I saw this kit I kinda just started to cry in my soul. I can smell the chai. This is like a specialised hell specifically aimed to torment me.
Next time, warm the tortillas on a med high griddle. The texture is more authentic and has a different flavor.
I save extra containers and use them to portion out and freeze homemade stock. I can also use them for giving food to family.
The only thing I dislike about these videos is I live in NYC and can't order these amazing kits!
But you have amazing places in NYC. Neither my town, nor the surrounding places, have much above chains and burgers. Or really overcooked pasta.
I'd imagine that NYC has even more diverse options.
There is a "fancy" grocery store chain (The Fresh Market) that makes a family meal kit for $20 they change it up every week they give you a main and sides for 4 people sometimes the include dessert. Last time we got it it was gourmet burgers (we chose bacon cheddar ones), cheese, buns and cold salad (i.e. pasta salad or potato salad...). Its a way to show people stuff from all parts of the store: buns from bakery, meat from the butcher, salad from the deli counter.
the bliss on everyone’s face after drinking that sip of chai😂
It was SOOOOO good. When you go to their restaurant you get unlimited Chai and it's always a winner.
You lot are pretty much the only channel I watch where every vid is fab 👌🏻 I love love love your content 🥰
Chilli jam reminds me of Jamie Oliver, and Uncle Roger
I hope you do more food gift ideas; with the year we had I think a lot of people will be looking for inexpensive but awesome food gifts to give.
"welcome to fridge cam" used to make sense when the camera was in the fridge.. am I the only one to notice they've stopped doing that but still kept the opening line?
I miss the “butt first...”
It's part of the lore now. Like "gooey in the middle."
Ben's little dance at 4:10, very, very relatable (might have danced in restaurants myself...)
I feel like something that should be remembered with these kits is that you would pay a similar amount or more for a frozen/prepackaged dinner kit at the supermarket. So for a simple dinner that supports local in the process, it's pretty great.
Jamie reading that description of the chicken meal aloud should be r-rated... That was SO juice-inducing!
"Chili Jam?"~1:45
Uncle Roger disapprove
That last one had me drooling. I love chicken. And that burger looks smashin.
Did Jamie pick the song that played while he was building the tacos? Because it sounds like a song he would pick. :)
I may be completely wrong, but it sounds like Mike
@@Laura_Norda So Mike singing and Jamie's lyrics? :)
The Spicery is based in Bristol (UK) and is an organisation I'd recommend, it does some delicious spice blend meal kits from around the world. They make super affordable and interesting gifts which I think delivers across the UK and they work with a refugee charity to help integrate them into a new society which is pretty cool
Did Barry steal Jamie's collar so he could have extra?
I was so happy when you used James Cochran’s meal kit. I loved him on Great British menu and he’s on the Christmas version too. He’s a great chef!
Has anyone found local stuff in the Netherlands? I'm having trouble finding these type of kits from local restaurants.
The tacos were definitely the best ones. They looked AMAZING
