What do you think if this recipe? :) be sure to see Jamie Oliver's Lasagna! - th-cam.com/video/sKcwqRGC15U/w-d-xo.html
Sunday James is best James 😊
Also the blender to sieve pipeline is priceless information to amateur cooks like us, who are not necessarily aware of what they're doing 👍
My hack is to add cut lawn grass as a herb 🤔 just needs that freshness lol.
Honestly jacks cooking gets more insane every video🤦
Oops did I say Jack's, I meant Jamie's.
i wouldn't make it with mango chutney.
and i never use Worcestershire sauce.
but i'm certainly gonna give the mustard and breadcrumb&bacon idea a try.
didn't know mustard was used in mac&cheese.
we live and we learn!
You should try making this garbage to see how it actually tastes lol
Have you thought about recreating the triple Fried Egg Chili Chutney Sandwich from Red Dwarf? All the ingredients are wrong but together they somehow work. Also apart from real indian cuisine I can't really think of another use for chutney.
At this point i think that mango chutney company is sponsoring Jamie Oliver!! And that friend of his is that comapnay 😂
Hahaha they have to be!
Chutney conspiracy!
Exactly what I was thinking, we should keep an eye on whether he ever uses a different brand.
I was think a similar thing I'm sure he did sponsor a Indian range once? And I'm sure mango chutney was involved 😂
😂I also think he has shares in green peas.
Even we Indians don't use sweet mango chutney in 99.99% of our dishes
I was surprised to find out just how uncommon chutney is in authentic Indian cuisine. Seems like achar is much more common.
Of course not. It's a western misconception of your great cuisine
White people LOVE mago chutney because it's sweet and tastes like jam, at least the common eaten one in the west. I know, I am white haha. I LOVE Indian food though, my favorite Chutney is a spicy cilantro chutney.
We usually eat it on the side
@MrKevin486 I mean, I do love mango chutney, but I agree with you on the spicy cilantro chuntney. it's my favorite.
Yes, yes, frozen peas….the beautiful *seasonal* veggies.
Yeah fresh frozen! haha
@@ChefJamesMakinsonsurely he means fresh or frozen lol
@@ChefJamesMakinson Let's be honest though, frozen peas are almost always better than fresh. - Unless you catch them in that 1 week window of peak season and they get airlifted from the farm to your supermarket.
@@muhilan8540Fresh frozen out of the can
@@ChefJamesMakinson to be fair, frozen peas are the best way to preserve them, and are often better than "fresh".
New Jamie Oliver hack - whenever making a vanilla cake, always add 1/2 cup demi-glace.
Vanilla cake with mango chutney and frozen peas
No guys what are you saying. You should add mango chutney with jalapeno sauce. In Vanilla cake
🤣🤣🤣
@@sourasishdutta4126 to add some lovely heat to the cheese cake
TASTY
I am good
Uncle roger is obsessed with MSG, likewise Jamie is obsessed with Mango Chutney.
It's true
Chutney can ruin the taste MSG your health... I take the Mango... :-)
At least MSG can put almost in any food, especially south east asian food 😂. Mango chutney cannot 🤣
And also olive oil
Would actually be a great way for Jamie to poke jobs at UR. Mango chutney, the greatest spice ever! Lol
So when Jamie says “My kind of…” he means add mango chutney. Got it😂😂😂
Hahaha 🤣
And frozen peas, can't forget those
or chili jam
@@piliface7920 Of course, to make up for the sugar and make it taste worse.
And peas
He is the firsty presenter on Australian Masterchef at the moment and a lot of the contestants are really excited "it's Jamie Oliver!". He gave advice to one of them and they said how amazing it was to be personally taught by the "Lord of cooking".
My youngest daughter dropped her fork at that comment, just saying "WHAT?!?". She has been enjoying you and uncle Roger smashing his recipes.
The Dark Lord of cooking, maybe...
I'm sure the flavour is complex... with mango chutney and Worcester sauce, how could it be otherwise. The only problem is that mac 'n cheese is supposed to be a simple dish.
it should taste like cheese
The worcester sauce I can understand, several cheese dishes use it including the ridiculously simple Welsh rabbit which is just cheese sauce on toasted bread. The mango chutney though? He already added caramelized onion which will add plenty of sweetness and I would argue already makes the mac and cheese far too complex.
Worcestershire sauce is common in the American South Mac & Cheese, but def not mango chutney
@@ChefJamesMakinson😂 True
@@ChefJamesMakinson Which is why do you do not add bacon pangritata.
Jamie Oliver: "I got a recipe for you thats going to blow your mind" Chef James: "Its never a good idea to make promises you can't keep" LMAO!!
I dunno, my mind was pretty comprehensively blown, just not in the way he probably thought.
😂😂😂
Frenchy on a different channel said that Jamie Oliver is the enemy of flavor.
8:47 The rare swear from Chef James, that chutney must be *very* sweet
Chef James, other videos: "don't boil the you-know-what out of it"
Chef James, this video: "sweet as fu*k!"
It's a bit confusing.
true@@blargvlarg1390😜😆
Yes, how freaking sweet was the mango chutney that corrupted our gentle Chef James?
it is, sweeter than a spoon full of sugar
How to ruin the food: just bring Jamie
🤣
@@ChefJamesMakinson how much is he going to ruin the cuisine without calling his own version?
FR... 😂😂
And jack.
@@Enthusiastic-Trainspotter-BNE bring both for the best combo
*"a little hack"*
_adds jam again, to food_
we've seen it all before, Joliveoil 😲
😂😂 true!
Every time Jamie Oliver says, "we're gonna do it my way!" - that's one big clump of foreshadowing 😆
😂😂 haha
Worcestershire Sauce and English mustard are both ingredients in Welsh Rarebit, which is fancy cheese on toast (using a cheese sauce on the toast instead of just sliced cheese). I think that's why he's adding those ingredients. No idea about the chutney, though, but since chutney goes well with cheese, that's probably why he's putting that in there too
Mustards pretty common in mac amd cheese and the english very much enjoy Worcestershire sauce. Hes absolutely on his own with the chutney and onions though. ( I, a humble welshman, can say jamie is a tool.)
I'm thinking of trying this without the chutney of course. I wouldn't even know where to get mango chutney. But I was wondering about the Worcestershire sauce. Should I include it? and I doubt I can find English mustard, but Google says you can substitute dijon mustard, but it's milder, or horseradish. I wonder which one I should try? Also the bacon bread crumb thing looks totally awesome!
I wouldn't recommend going for the mango version though. The extreme sweetness and strange fruity taste wouldn't match well with the macaroni cheese flavor.
Was looking for this answer. The mustard and wistasheah I can understand. They don't actually alter the taste, just deepen it if that makes sense.
I still have his first cookbook from his show in the 90s. It was actually quite decent and he seemed a sensible bloke.
@@cisium1184 he is a classically trained chef. He just became okay with making money over proper food. Now, he's an idiot who couldn't last in any french kitchen.
Living in the UK almost everyone has heard of Jamie, he has been all over the TV and media. Most people never heard of Chef James but hopefully they will discover this channel. If Chef James had a restaurant next door to Jamie Oliver I would rather max out my card to eat at Chef James' than eat at Jamie Oliver's for free. Made Chef James' carbonara this evening and it was amazing - give it a try and you will love it, looking forward to trying more of his recipes 😁😁😁
I don't remember what mexican recipe I saw Jamie making where he added peas when nobody, nowhere here in México does that. Great review as always James!
did he??? if you remember please email it to me for me to see!
@@ChefJamesMakinson It was about 10 years ago, around 2013 or 2014, I don't know if that video is still on youtube.
"It's never a good idea to make promises that you can't keep"
Savage start.
🤣🤣
"Of course we're going to be using macaroni" Look, after he used, what was it, soba noodles for ramen? I'm not taking for granted Jamie using the ingredients literally in the name of the dish!
me as well
He looked to use Ditalini, not even proper macaroni (or another “substantial” pasta). They’re tiny! It would be what I loathed most about this dish, but it’s not even top 2. Oh, Jamie, you’ve done it again, my Chutney Fiend.
I think Jamie isn't above using rice for mac and cheese
Your best review yet? So funny, so on point, unapologetic. Chef James Makinson not toying around anymore 😅
🤣🤣 the gloves are coming off!
Is he sponsored by that mango chutney brand? As someone who is lactose intolerant but loves cheese, Mac and cheese is to me, about the simplicity of the dish. I really hope you have to remake this dish because I find it interesting that he always leans towards sweet components than savory. I do wonder how much of the use of sweetness is about catering towards British palates or is it just him trying to be unique.
idk i'm british & sweet macaroni cheese is not a thing... the only sweet savoury foods i can think of are asian style ones like sweet & sour sauce or similar.
mango chutney specifically is super weird. mango chutney is a condiment used as a dip, i never saw anyone cook it into food other than jamie
@@amagicallaura Yeah, but he doesn't even make the Asian dishes well. I would kinda, sorta maybe forgive him if he made a decent butter chicken.
@@kimyoonmisurnamefirst7061 yeah, jamie oliver is completely lost lol... apparently his italian food is good??
@@amagicallaura I watch an Italian chef who cursed him forever for the Lasagna dish... Vincenzo's plate. So... ummm.. not even that. Jamie Olivier is a champion of add peas to underseasoned British-ed dishes? Maybe?
This brand is good but way to sweet and it doesn't belong in mac and cheese. I think this is worse than adding ketchup haha
Along with the chili jam and mango chutney, Jamie sure does love adding that lovely, green pea-ness to his dishes.
Hes got shares in frozen peas😂
*Pea-ness* 👀
@@RangeGleasry I know what I said. It's kind of a callback to a scene from The Critic( it's up on youtube)
Your response, coupled with your Diamond Tiara avatar, go together quite nicely.
It’s very clever and I enjoyed the double entendre ❤
Yes he does!
Brian Tsao and James both realising a video on Jamie. Well time to enjoy!
😂😂
@6:00 He went from Mac & Cheese to Mac & Peas.
🤣
The look of horror that crawled onto your face when he took out the mango chutney was priceless
It truly was something else. 😏💯🤣
🤣🤣 so true!
You’ve never had peas and macaroni and cheese. My mom always made it like that. She sometimes even added tuna although I suppose at that point, it’s more of a casserole than mac & cheese . we really didn’t have hardly any money so my mom would usually add ingredients to stretch the dish
Peas are the only side I've ever had with macaroni and cheese, which was what I asked my mom to make anytime I was asked to what I wanted for dinner.
Since I am following your content since 1.5 year approx......it's actually good to see that you are adding more of your expressions in the review as the previous reviews were lacking a bit....but now it's like you are openly showing your feelings and expressions about all the recipes and videos.....quite liking your growth.....and you are one my favourite food reviewers up till now
Thank you so much! I was a bit camera shy
What is that man's obsession with chutneys? Mangos are delicious, but they do not require to be put into savory foods. Will someone PLEASE send the memo to Jamie?
I think this recipe would actually be delicious. Don’t knock it ‘til you try it.
@@Sniperboy5551 How do I put this nicely? That messipe was done over 4 years ago, and most of his restaurants are closed, for some strange reason.
In India, we put mango into a lot of savoury dishes. But not mango CHUTNEY
😂😂 its super sweet
I put chutney in sandwiches before I layer the greens and protein. I haven't used mango chutney yet but I imagine it adds a nice sweetness and tartness to a savoury sandwich along with other sauces. So I'm not gonna talk shh about it. But adding it to mac n cheese is crazy 😂😂
Did...did we just get James cursing?
That's actually epic
Yes, we did. 🥳🤗🎉
8:20 His friend makes mango chutney, yes.
A few drops of Worcester sauce would be more normal to add.
Yes, it's very common to add Worcestershire sauce in the American South.
I loved your bit on the different types of roux. It's not something that is often covered, particularly the cajun roux!
never even heard of a roux besides the white one.
thank you!
really?
This is the earliest I've been for one of your videos, I love your stuff. You react and give insight. I'm just a home cook, but I'm always learning.
Worth mentioning as well, is that the darker your roux is, the less it will thicken. However it will contribute more flavor.
Also I love to put peas in my mac and cheese. Mix them in Frozen before baking, and they'll be just the right amount done when the rest of the dishes. You'll still get that beautiful pop
The freeze frame at 4:57 is sending me 😂. This recipe of his is a contender for a future recipe recereation episode.
This also reminds me of Nat's What I Reckon's mac and cheese that I find prepped and cooked so simple and tons better looking and tasting. His recipes are also really good to follow.
A truly great freeze frame that one there was. 😅😂😉😁🔥😎😜😆
Yes, i hope chef James makes this exactly and tells us how it is.
haha me too! haha
"Sweet as F**k" - and there my friends we saw a whole new chef Makinson, who use to feel awkward on uncle Roger's sex jokes 😄😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣
I just watched Uncle Roger video about Jamie Oliver's No-Butter Butter Chicken, in which he adds no butter but makes sure to include mango chutney... What is it with this guy? Butter Chicken, Egg Fried Rice, and now Mac N Cheese!? Chef James's smile when he said, "It's not a good idea to make promises you can't keep" put me on the floor lol!
I think Jamie's heart is in the right place. Can't say I'm not concerned about his tastebuds though ;). I once ate at a Jamies Italian in Leeds I think. It was really good but crazy overpriced (the company paid thankfully). His books were spread out on any spare surface, so a colleague thought they were free, so that was effectively, probably a £20 discount :D
Im still reeling from the chili jam in egg fried rice...
😂
@ 8:48 you can tell Chef James is getting irritated when he’s dropping F bombs 😂… this went how I pretty much thought it would lol
😜😜😜😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
It's been a while since I've watched your critique videos and I remember you tried to be soooo nice. Glad you're now one of us
You and I both know we'd still eat it though lol
His kids think he's an idiot...
I'm not even gonna try this time. The comedy writes itself. lol
I find it a bit of a shame that your own children 🚸 would actually think 💬 that about you.
😂😂😂😂
Hi James. I think you nailed it with identifying Jamie a 'character'. (there are other less savory descriptions, but we'll stay that.) I really appreciate how you break down the recipe and techniques, pointing out what could negatively and positively impact the results. You don't have to remake everything Jamie makes - no one should be subjected that level of punishment. Traditional recipes and demonstrations can be quite edifying; equally, modifications and personalized versions can be quite good and should be so identified when presented. I think every traditional recipe started out as a lump of something in a pot or pan anyway.
Thank you so much!
Love the explanations on things like the roux. Your reactions are more than just reactions, this is why I love your videos 🤘
Thank you so much 😀
Love your content! Thanks For this ❤❤❤❤❤
You are welcome!
Jamie probably has shares in Mango Chutney and Chilli jam companies.
🤣🤣 I'm starting to think so
... I think this is a good video about what kind of friends you need to keep...
I love that when you swear, you mean it! 😂
Oh god is he going to add jam to the mac & cheese?
Not jam :)
@@ChefJamesMakinsonmango chutney on the mac & cheese? And worcester sauce? I can get the mustard, but I don't see how those 2 would taste well with each other or the mac & cheese.
Is this a prank? Is Jamie rage baiting us to get more engagement?
@@limon16025 Worcester sauce is actually quite commonly added to some cheese dishes. Even the incredibly simple Welsh rabbit which is just cheese sauce on toasted bread often has worcester sauce. That said Jamie used three types of cheese that all can have the thing you add worcester to cheese sauce for: umami.
The fact he added caramelized onion AND an incredibly sweet mango chutney is just baffling.
James we love you so much ❤ This video was funny & educational, as always 😊🎉
Thank you so much!!
7:57 The "friend" is a voice inside Jamie's head. The voice that tells him to put jam/jelly/chutney/marmalade in every dish.
😂
I was surprised that he didn't add the peas! But the mango chutney? He could have just said he was adding ketchup and it would have sounded just as bad. Thanks for the reaction vid, Chef! Oh, I was just thinking. I've made a few recipes from other creators and maybe you could do a video of 2 or 3 recipes that you would recommend to showcase your cooking? I'd definitely try making them. 👨🍳🥳
11:42 This had me😂😂😂😂
😂
😅🤣😂
I always found that the milk temp doesn't make a difference, as long as you add slowly and mix in it works out fine. We are just making a bechamel in the end, the only time I would use hot milk is if I had flavoured that milk (in which case it would have warmed up with the classic onion studded with cloves and a couple of bay leaves.) EDIT: I don't add hot stock if I'm making a Veloute. The french mother sauces are such powerful things. EDIT 2: It becomes even more fun when you are decoding Le Repertoire de la Cuisine :)
adding the herbs and spices would help the bechamel a lot. haha
Warm milk to mix saffron
😂😂😂😂 “Sweet af!!!” 😂😂😂😂 I think we’ve finally found your kryptonite, chef! Love this vid. So honest yet respectful.
I don’t think you’re too hard on Messiah JO AT ALL!!! If people actually watched your channel proper, they’d know you focus on the food, not the person. And if the person is a poor facilitator of the food (IYO) then fine, they cop a correction or at least an audience warning 😂
Great vid mate. 👍🏻
Yay! Thank you! I like sugar but I don't eat it every day
@@ChefJamesMakinson me too, big time! Massive sweet tooth! But not when it comes to savoury dishes. I shudder to think what his ambrosia is like! 🤮
More to the point, he’s a bit of a hypocrite (like many self-proclaimed prophets 😂) saying he’s the deliverer from unhealthy things and yet at the same time boosts the glycemic index of the dish in one ingredient. The sweet chutney he used is concentrated, therefore the glucose contents is even higher. And this is intended for kids!? Not my choice, but fine, DO NOT call yourself everyone’s health guru. 😂🤦🏻♂️
I don't know if it's mac & cheese, but I make a cheese sauced pasta dish (I use rotini not mac, so I guess definitely not mac and cheese) with peas, chicken, broccoli and carrots with worcestershire sauce added for a bit of umami. Also a bit of hot sauce. We call it "cheesy chicken" at my house, and it's a family favoroute.
Hello Chef James, just finished watching to Uncle Roger making ultimate egg omelette ❤
I need to see it!
@@ChefJamesMakinson sorry for the words I mess up but yeah just now it was released, but Chef your content is unique. Good work Sir
I find that British chefs all have a penchant for peas (Ramsay and Irvine included), either they belong in a dish or not. Mango chtney is taking it a step too far though.
edit: half an hour at 200C seems a bit much
8:49 I did not expect chef James to drop the F bomb like that !!!😂
😂
5:38 to be fair, sometimes adding 'too much' salt is a good thing, because it prevents food from rotting. So it is absolutely a good idea to put more salt than usual if you're making it for a family function or you're poor, because then you can stretch your food out longer.
3:52 Do you have a video on saving sauces? If not, that might be a good one to do for people like me 😅
the aioli one is but not for hot sauces
Mango chutney again
😂
Must be sponsored by the chutney company. There's no other explanation. You can't convince me otherwise.
maybe he is haha
i make mac&cheese all the time.
it is one of my favorite recipes.
simple, yet so tasty.
macaroni, speck, roux to cheesesauce.
pepper and salt to taste.
mix in an oven dish, cheese on top.
in the oven.
and yum yum!
some some sometimes i make it with broccoli for nutrition 😅
The 5:00 freeze frame of Jamie was a choice lol
😂😂
Jamie must own stock in that mango chutney company.
I don't know 🤣
Haiyaaaa. Mango chutney again.
yeah again
@@ChefJamesMakinson Does this guy sponsored to destroy authentic food or something.
The addition of mustard and Worcestershire sauce makes it seem like a combination of of Mac & Cheese and Welsh rarebit. The mango chutney could possibly add to the sweetness of the caramelised onions, but I don't think I would like the fruity flavour in this dish.
Your reactions at 9:29, 9:42 and 11:57 were my absolute favourites! Cracked me up and were precisely my reactions too! I've never seen a pasta recipe such as this one...weird to say the least! You were savage in this one, and rightly so!
I'm glad!
Mango Mac n Cheese.....
Yeah ok 😂
Hahaha 🤣
Bro will be buried with a jar of mango chutney 😂
🤣
And the jam, plus a bottle of olive oil as well.
love the humor, love the way you're explaining the very easy things just "by the way"
Glad you liked it!
8:01 the fucking eyebrow raise Chef James does has me bursting out in laughter lmao.
🤣🤣
You know it's serious when James curses
🤣🤣🤣
😜😜😆😆🤣🤣
its macaroni and cheese, you just boil the mac, then put the cheese sauce in the mac, then if brown off the top in the oven (optional).
PS. I just use processed cheese, I know its bad for me but its so good!
This is Älplermagronen with the apple sauce swapped out for mango chutney. He is just calling it mac and cheese (which I suppsoe it technically is).
0:32
I love how he said "hope you endured this video" instead of "enjoy". At least that's what I heard.
😂😂😂
🤣🤣
2:00 A roux, which we call 'opbagt sovs' in Danish, 2:25 I learned it the hard way that is essential for making smooth gravies and sauces. Adding the milk or stock gradually is crucial to prevent lumps. It's important to whisk thoroughly after each addition until the mixture is smooth before adding more. This method ensures a creamy consistency and saves time by avoiding the need to break down lumps later, which can be quite frustrating. 11:00 he didn’t blend the sauce at all; you can see the onion strings hanging from it. You can also notice it when he's eating, indicating that the sauce wasn't integrated.
I would blend the sauce to make it smoother but it is his recipe
What is it with brits dumping jam into everything
Your dumb sweeping generalisation aside, can you list the other brits beside Jamie?
I'm also a British Citizen :)
@@iamvengeance5324 probably because it's been more of a staple in GB than most other nations throughout the 20th century. It's hardly a "sweeping generalization" to say that.
@@f1jones544 "Brits dumping jam into everything" is a sweeping generalisation, give some extensive examples to prove otherwise. We use Jam on toast and chutney with indian sides, like poppadoms, just like most places on earth. We don't put jam in rice, chutney in butter chicken or macaroni cheese. Jamie Oliver doesn't represent nor define British cooking.
@@ChefJamesMakinson I should have clarified. I ment other brits that "dump jam into everything." I assume that's not a common practice on your part.
I actually like Jamie's cooking. His whole thing is about making normal everyday dishes you can make at home without having to be a professional chef. So yeah, he makes "his versions" of things because that:s what we all do at home...
"a Salud" Jamie!
this is true
Peas are definitely the most common vegetable added to mac and cheese especially in an effort to make it slightly healthy when making it for kids
First egg fried rice with chili jam, now this? HIYAA!!!!!
Jamie needs all his condiments taken away 😤
🤣🤣🤣
Peas!?!?!?!?! Mushrooms I could understand, but PEAS!?!?!?!
🤣🤣
There are about 1100 comments here and Chef James has replied to all of them. That takes dedication which is something Jamie Oliver seems to be lacking.
1100 already?! wow haha no wounder its taken me so long the past few days hahaha 😂😂
Mango chutney, chili jam, Jamie obviously likes to experiment with flavors. Personally, my additions to mac and cheese are a small amount of caramelized onions,( 1/2 an onion only), smoked paprika, and diced ham. Everyone has their personal favorite for mac and cheese, so we can agree that Jaime loves his version, but it may not necessarily be OUR favorite. Great review!
Sir love you contact 😊😊😊
Thank you!
I love adding peas to my mac & cheese, my mom did it when I was a kid and it just makes it better imo
Right? Peas in Mac and Cheese is amazing.
Regarding the Worcester sauce, it does actually work, sometimes even a little White wine vingear can work for that acidity as well. Helps cut through the grease of the cheese.
Mango chutney maybe strange but I don't see what the big deal is. I tried it many times and it does not ruin the dish at all. Barely know it's there. I like to add twists to my recipes aswell, it makes it more interesting. Sometimes it works well, sometimes it doesn't. That's the fun with cooking. I did not like his butter chicken though. I really enjoy your tips James, it helps a lot. Thank you.
you should buy this brand and try adding it to everything
I mean... I can go along with the caramelized onions. It's lovely, I've done it a few times before. Not required, but still!
I can attest to the sweetness of that chutney. I had a ja that i'd forgotten about some time ago, found it a few months back and it had just evaporated/crystalised into just a jar of sugar with bits in.
mine is still good after 6 months I think haha
Mango Chutney part is the most hilarious part and I believe this part will make Uncle Roger leg put down from chair, haiyaa 🤣🤣🤣
I worked at a spot that made their own in-house Spicy BBQ sauce. We made our own Mac too. Now we didn't serve them together. But I added some of that Spicy BBQ Sauce to the Mac before 🔥
W sauce is really strong so idk how it'd work either. But I do kinda get it
I'm sure Jamie would mix them haha
It's been a bit since I watched one of your videos, Chef, life has just gotten a bit busy...but coming back I remembered exactly why I always return eventually. Not even 3 minutes in and I'm learning about different rouxs and the basics of making one. Informative and entertaining!
As for peas in mac and cheese, I remember Adam Ragusea also puts some into his when he cooks some at home to keep it from 'being an empty calorie bomb', and while I personally think a simple breading would go a long way in terms of both texture and flavor, at least in this dish it's not *totally* unheard of?? I haven't tried it myself, but I find Mr. Ragusea a much more trustworthy source than Jamie Oliver.
RE: Mustard...yes! It does a lot to break up the monotony of cheese sauce and add variety. I use it when I'm cooking cheese-heavy dishes like this (unless it's Mexican cuisine, that's a different story).
Welcome back! :)
That's interesting about roux. I prefer to add the milk little by little but my mom just pours the whole thing in and both turn out okay. We do use a whisk. I heard somewhere that adding the entire thing of milk makes less lumps because it will heat up/thicken much slower. I'm not sure how true that is, but seems true enough when I'm making pudding.
11:14 Too hilarious. When Jamie says "crispy bits" he sounds *exactly* like the South Park parody of himself from all those years ago. =D
really?? hahaha
@@ChefJamesMakinson Definitely. The clips are on TH-cam if you're curious.
I'm sorry to even suggest it, but I'd be curious to see you make this and try it. It's a morbid fascination to see what all of these things taste like when that mango chutney gets added.
With the Worchester and mustard this would be a good mac and cheese with maybe an odd sweetness (more due to the onions than the chutney). Leave out the sweet components and you have a good dish, but as Chef Makinson said watch the salt, you're cooking pasta in salted water (or at least you should be) and you've got at least two pretty salty cheeses in Cheddar and Parmesan so taste as you go.
It's more of aam ka meetha achar or kacha aam ka murabba.. than chutney.
Mango chutney is when you crush the raw sour mango with raw green chilli and fresh coriander + cumin+ salt.
P.s: all aam ka chutney is not the same.. regional variation exits.
Best case scenario, the English mustard and chutney combo in this remind me of cheese with fig mustard. So, on a cheese board, it might actually work, but mixed in a sauce and with pasta ...
To me sugar and onions are only combined together to caramellize onions!
If there is something i'm missing i wanna know
(Fun fact, i sometimes use fruits sirup (natural sirup) to carramellize onions and add a twist)
