she's always called her spatula an oofah-doofah because apparently the word spatula is too hard to both remember and pronounce for her. August needs to catch up on his Kay Lore.
You're correct. I remember in an early Q&A that she said an oofah-doofah can be anything that she can't remember the name of, but she uses it most often to refer to her spatula.

I was able to track down a vintage recipe called “Salisbury Steak Supreme” which consisted of ground beef, onions, and the various components that comprise mushroom soup (in addition to herbs and spices). So perhaps this is a strange poultry/mystery meat twist on that?

I genuinely enjoy watching Kay's videos from time to time. They aren't really great as tutorials but they are genuinely interesting to listen to and Kay herself comes across as very sweet and someone you want to see succeed.😊
right? she just seems like a normal everyday mom, trying to cook a meal. I love her for that. But sadly throughout time, her enthusiasm and energy seems to be declining.
I could agree with that last sentiment if she had shown some improvement, but she seemingly concentrates all of her energy into cooking the exact same shitty way
Ok, in some South American countries there's a cut of meat (normally from chicken breast) called Suprema (or Supreme), and making a dish with this cut using mushroom sauce wouldn't be too out there. The million dollar question is how Kay stumbled upon this
'Supremas' here are just milaneses or kaiser breaded meats, though adding mushroom soup is just too off as they are meant to be used in sandwiches or eaten with rice as main.
@@thejazzo3595 Well, it looked obvious to me that the mushroom soup was a shortcut for a bechamel sauce with mushrooms, which is not too different from the sauce with corn used in the Suprema Maryland, but I'm no expert, the name just rang a bell and I asked google what the difference between a suprema and milanesa was and the explanation in my 1st comment was the answer
I can't speak for how common this dish is in England, but here in Ireland my mother called this "Chicken Supreme" and it seems pretty commonly known. I've seen multiple brand sell packets of dry "chicken supreme sauce" but personally I felt the whole point was to take a can of condensed mushroom soup and add less milk than the can says to so it makes a very thick sauce.
@@BurnsyMcBurn I can totally see this being pretty good.

My dad literally taught me how to cook simple omelets and I took off from there on experimenting with cooking for myself mostly and not really for others due to obvious reasons. 😅
Other meats, such as pork, lamb, and even fish can also be cut into steaks. Steak simply refers to a portion of meat that is sliced perpendicular to the muscle fibers, resulting in a tender, juicy piece of meat that can be cooked by grilling, broiling, or frying. 0:02
I thought this too. Other people in the comments have mentioned that she seems more sad lately. I wonder, if maybe Kay is trapped in her own kitchen and isn't allowed to leave - forced to make bad cooking videos forever
I notice she wears a wrist brace in some of her videos, she might have carpal tunnel or arthritis, she might be in a lot of pain. Some people need to laugh through their pain.
This reminds me of the time Kay made "Tuna Tacos" that was pretty much just tuna fried in mayo and sour cream with a bit of parsley on top and nothing else. She didn't use any shells or wraps because "I've had enough wraps for a lifetime and I'm doing this my way" lol
She's a Northern girl so I can translate for you. 2:20 After she talks about the "steak" being cut up, she goes on to talk about how she needs to turn the chunks over before putting the onions in.

You are absolutely correct about it being pork, but untreated pork itself is not salty to taste. Both beef and chicken usually contains more natural sodium than pork, if the meat is salty to taste without seasoning then it has probably been treated with something. I know that it is common for pork chops to be artificially smoked which usually just means treated with a smoky flavored substance and that can be salty to taste without any added seasoning.

She's making Cube Steak/Country Fried Steak with mushroom "gravy" (usually just a can of cream of mushroom soup). Super common in Appalachia, but I don't think I've seen anyone try it with chicken chunks before.
Nah, we use white gravy with it. Not mushroom soup. It's also not made with chicken. It's beef. It's breaded like chicken with white gravy. That's country fried steak.
"I wasn't able to understand anything she said after 'those are bits of steak,'" understandable. given the elaborate ritual being performed I'd venture to guess her saying those were bits of steak is part of a curse more ancient than mankind itself, cast to confuse her foes
She sounded so genuinely pleased when it fit on the plate. "Yeah, yeah yeah yeah!" I think it's just how genuine she seems to be that draws so many peoples attention.
Kay is unreal like, her happy go lucky nature draws me in everytime, add to that a few Honey uns, Mushy rooms & Carry ots and thats me sorted for the night haha
She made a stroganoff. Looks like some pork chunks with a creamy mushieroom emulsion and some lightly burnt honeyions for some tang. All she needed to do was dump it on rice or mashed potatoes and you've got a winter meal going.
3:59 did she say "if you keep kicking that camera Kay I'm gonna take it off ya"??? IT'S A SHAPESHIFTER AND IT'S HOLDING KAY HOSTAGE AS A CAMERA STAND RUN
I love how even though August is reacting to her cooking, he does not show ill will to kay. Like he even gave awesome gold nuggets to improve production value of her videos in an easy way and i find that super sweet!
She has absolutely rolled with honions and I love it. She said it 1 time in an old vid and Lee made a joke about it and from that moment she always calls them honions and its so sweet. I do believe its a joke between her and son + those who got to see that vid lol
2:44 I think I've almost got this part figured out August. "These are bits of steak that I cut up so lets just take the steak, turn it over, turn a few over just because [something] needs to be done and all turned over before I decide to add the onion."
@@christinastokes5534 No problem. Growing up without a lot of money meant we would frequently have cheaper cuts of meat for our dinners. Pork steak comes from the same place on the body that a beef steak comes from, and the name helps to zhuzh up the idea that "maybe" it's a quality piece of pork. It is not. 🤣 But it's tasty when prepared corr--... when it's prepared to your liking.
@@Psycul It's not, you know. She often says the word correctly, and then immediately says the one that sounds cuter. That's not a speech impediment. She's just put another video out where she uses "hoil"...yet is perfectly capable of saying "oil". It's her gimmick.
I looovvvee watching Kay’s cooking channel. This is not satire, she is truly this sweet wholesome British woman who just likes trying things she finds online
Im only 2 mins in but I'd bet my front teeth that is chicken. Poor Kay. She seems sad. I can't help but feel for her, and her dinner guests... Edit: She said "oofa doofa" we often refer to the thing we cant remember as a doofer. It's a thingamjig.
August, this is on you. You've never heard of chicken supreme? That's the joke. Kay being Kay she's called it steak supreme and put her characteristic "twist" on it.
After she says these are bits of steak she slurs her words and repeats that a couple times, then mumbles about having to flip them over a couple times and finally ends with "before I add the honey"
Pour 2 cans of mushroom soup and a whole chicken in a crock pot on high for 4-5 hrs depending on the size of yard pimp and spoon over rice or egg noodles. Easy cheap and tasty.
Unsure why this is called 'steak supreme' as there's a distict lack of steak, I can however clarify the 'supreme' suffix. There's a dish in the UK known as chicken supreme, which is basicallly chunks of chicken in a white sauce. You can make it yourself or buy it premade in a can.
When i saw her dusting the mystery meat and huneeons with spices i about jumped out of my chair, until she said it was tasteless parsley. Still though, adding color (albeit without any flavor) is a milestone for her
I've been a home cook for over 50 years and other than her stupidity she is not fooling us all. But her recipe is not called steak supreme but looks more like Chicken Stroganoff. But I prefer the Beef Stroganoff. I would have also added sour cream and ate it over noodles. I gave her 👍👍for this recipe. She has really improved her cooking. And she did fine on the preparation as well. But, I would love to see her make homemade mayonnaise which I make all of the time. Can't stand that store bought crap.
@augusttheduck Hi August! Always love your vids man. My people are part of the Cymraeg Diaspora that saw entire families, who were involved in mining, move up into northern England as new pits opened around the beginning of the 20th century. Hence, I have not only a few languages but some dialects under my belt. I'll tell you any phrases that you were stuck on: At around 2:33, where you said you got lost after the work steak, this is what Kay said: "... steak, that I've cut up so I take a piece of steak, turn it over, turn a few over, there's just a few that need to be done and turned over before I even decide to add the honey-ons" (she's punning as you can guess Onions - honey-ons)! 6:45 - You asked about "Oompa Loompas". That's not what she said. She said "Oofer doofer". She was referring to the wooden cooking utensil, but this one is slightly more cryptic, possibly even for other regions of the UK. When you can't think of the correct word for something, or it just temporarily slips your mind, you tend to come up with placeholder words. "Doofer" is a good one, and a historic one. My biological mother used to be ALWAYS asking me to pass that doofer, or grab the doofer that goes on the hoover or such things. It originates in phrases such as "That'll do for now", "This'll do for the job". From there - Doofer. She's just added rhyming Oofer first. HMU anytime you need any help - I've lived all over the place, the world even, but Kay's accent is about 25miles west, and maybe a few miles north or south, of where I lived for a part of my youth. These are geniune "pit village accents" and they reflect the tough lives, the decent times, the nightmare of 1984-1985, and after that, the spiral and descent into insanity the pit villages all suffered. So I know this is a year or so late, but seriously, since I can hear EXACTLY what she's saying (one of my married-in aunties has almost the same accent and turn of phrase, only geographically softened), I have no worries if you just want to message me direct before or after and I will lend you my ears! I like your work August, I don't offer my services for free to just anyone!! Take care man, keep making the good stuff!
I petition to arrange a cooking competition: Kay, jack, the mountain dew guy, the guy who cooks in a toilet. Cutthroat Kitchen style judged by Ramsay, Morimoto and Mr. White Hear himself!
In the UK this is actually called Chicken Supreme which I think is taken from a french dish, it's like a thick chicken mushroom thing, no idea why she's called it steak supreme.
I watched the original video when she posted it a few days ago. Kay is my favorite disaster cook right up there with Jack. I still can't find a recipe for this either. I have enjoyed Your content more after I have watched her original. I generally found my laugh again.😂😂
Hey August, I think I have found the recipe that she was working from! I think where she got confused is that it says "cream of chicken soup" and "mushrooms" thus, somehow she ended up with chunks of chicken and mushroom soup. In Australia, we actually have "Supreme" pizza which is usually meat with red onions and mushrooms (plus some other stuff)- so this is definitely coming from a real recipe- albeit a misread one.
OKAY SO, european with chefy background here to explain a few things: -Steak means different things to americans vs europeans. In the american sense, steak is always a cut of beef, or in case of a beefsteak, minced beef formed into shape. To a european, basically any larger cut of meat can be a "steak", whether its beef, pork, turkey etc, or minced meat shaped into a "steak" form. Depends on the country or culture. -There are some dishes that contain the name steak despite being made from smaller cuts of meat. Depending on the country we'd call this "Geschnetzeltes" or Ragout usually, maybe goulash, but sometimes you see a dish use the term steak because it was made from a cut up steak originally. -No I have no idea what Steak Surpreme is supposed to be, I scoured my cookbooks and google for it. -I think Kay is trying to make some kinda Ragout here, with what the meat and onion cooked and mixed with sauce. Which is a pretty classical dish. And for once, despite using canned mushroom soup as "sauce" it doesn't look as terrible as her egg coated minced meat.
Does Kay have any kind of Patreon or other support page? I think with the near limitless good content and joy Kay brings we could all pitch in and send her some cooking equipment or something as a gift. I imagine she would truly appreciate something like that and allow her to up some of the quality for her channel like you were talking about.
@@cynicalnerdycinephileyeah there's evidence on Reddit she's more than a little racist. She seems just dumb enough to be too, so I don't know if I'd risk it personally.
I remember back in college, in the canteen they often had what they called "chicken steak" on the menu, which was made of (I believe) chicken breast. Don't know if that's any sort of a widespread thing though. Same with the 900g can of "salmon steak" I've got at home. Both of these were/are large pieces, rather than (near) bite-sized chunks. Still, it seems to indicate to me that there are more things at least colloquially called "steak" than just beef cuts.
I love the idea of a crowdfunded effort to raise her production quality. My 0-100 brain relishes the idea of her in a classic style cooking show, full blown stage kitchen and everything
That's pork loin, August. I just cut and cooked some up in a beans and rice dish. My pork cooked similar. But I seasoned mine differently, of course (≧▽≦)
reminds me of something we used to have when I was younger, consisted of cream of mushroom soup mixed with fried hamburger and onion ,a can of corn served over mashed potatoes. looks horrible but tasted good and really filled you up.
I wonder if Kay knows that her stove has multiple settings, hi and off are not the only two.
Said the exact same thing 😂
This is how my mum would cook when i was a kid, hi and off, MAYBE low, i started cooking when i was 14 cause i couldn't stand her cooking lol
I've also seen her set it to so low that it didn't seem the pan was even on.
Technically, those really ARE the only 2 settings. 😄 Your stove heats a certain amount of time with maximum heat, then turns off etc. Theres no
nah it's a binary stove XD

Yeah I'm sorry, I'm an Appalachian, this isn't country fried steak or chicken. Someone above in comments suggested they sound the recipe.
"I wasn't able to understand anything she said after 'those are bits of steak,'" understandable. given the elaborate ritual being performed I'd venture to guess her saying those were bits of steak is part of a curse more ancient than mankind itself, cast to confuse her foes
She sounded so genuinely pleased when it fit on the plate.
"Yeah, yeah yeah yeah!"
I think it's just how genuine she seems to be that draws so many peoples attention.
7:16
When Americans call an oopsy doopsy woody scoopy a "spatula".
Cooking videos are meant to be concise, straightforward, and informative. In tho scenario, you may as well leave the kitchen for a bit.
Leave the kitchen and Never Comeback.. 😂
🤫
This is the opposite lol
After a while you get use to seeing her cook. Trust me this isn't as bad as her other videos.
Black Mirror pfp 👀
Kay is unreal like, her happy go lucky nature draws me in everytime, add to that a few Honey uns, Mushy rooms & Carry ots and thats me sorted for the night haha
It may be that recipes Kay uses predates the internet and she’s finding them in recipe books she’s had forever or something similar.
She made a stroganoff. Looks like some pork chunks with a creamy mushieroom emulsion and some lightly burnt honeyions for some tang. All she needed to do was dump it on rice or mashed potatoes and you've got a winter meal going.
You can tell she never tries these recipes before she posts
That’s the best part, it’s so chaotic and I’m obsessed
3:59 did she say "if you keep kicking that camera Kay I'm gonna take it off ya"???
IT'S A SHAPESHIFTER AND IT'S HOLDING KAY HOSTAGE AS A CAMERA STAND RUN
😭😭😭😭
I love how even though August is reacting to her cooking, he does not show ill will to kay. Like he even gave awesome gold nuggets to improve production value of her videos in an easy way and i find that super sweet!
She said "Hoofer Doofer" rather than Oompa Loompa, Hoofer Doofer was slang from a UK TV show in the '80s for a TV remote.
Kay sounds like Salad Fingers. SHE ACTUALLY MADE MILK STEAK. It’s always sunny in her kitchen
That's what I was thinking. lol
This aint the worst ive seen from kay
Bless her soul
She has absolutely rolled with honions and I love it. She said it 1 time in an old vid and Lee made a joke about it and from that moment she always calls them honions and its so sweet. I do believe its a joke between her and son + those who got to see that vid lol
Literally obsessed with the way she calls them “hunyons”
2:44 I think I've almost got this part figured out August. "These are bits of steak that I cut up so lets just take the steak, turn it over, turn a few over just because [something] needs to be done and all turned over before I decide to add the onion."
The only thing I can say to help explain this is: pork steak is a thing, and that's definitely what she's cooking.
Thank you cuz I definitely thought that was chicken lol
@@christinastokes5534 No problem. Growing up without a lot of money meant we would frequently have cheaper cuts of meat for our dinners. Pork steak comes from the same place on the body that a beef steak comes from, and the name helps to zhuzh up the idea that "maybe" it's a quality piece of pork. It is not. 🤣 But it's tasty when prepared corr--... when it's prepared to your liking.
it would be hilarious to see someone take kay to a Michelin restaurant and just see her reaction to how food can actually taste😂
and Lee 😂
She doesn't like pink meat lol
I like how she takes the word onions and makes it into a 4 syllable word.
Honey yons! 😮
Carriots. Tommyarters. Spudtaters. Heggs. Molk. It's her baby talk because it's cute. Or so she's been told.
@@susanleitch8649It's called a speech impediment. Stop making fun of people for things they can't help.
@@Psycul It's not, you know. She often says the word correctly, and then immediately says the one that sounds cuter. That's not a speech impediment. She's just put another video out where she uses "hoil"...yet is perfectly capable of saying "oil". It's her gimmick.
@@Psyculit's really not... Stop spreading misinformation, thank you ☺️💖
I looovvvee watching Kay’s cooking channel.
This is not satire, she is truly this sweet wholesome British woman who just likes trying things she finds online
She’s awesome so far! What’s her channel please?
She's very cute! People get unnecessarily cruel sometimes though, commenting on her appearance for example instead of her suspect cooking.
Who is Kay
@@KathyStacy7Kay’s Cooking.
she might be a nice sweet lady but goddamn theres a couple screws loose.
She's called her spatula something like "oompa-loompah" before. Nobody except her #1 son, Lee, knows why.
I really do love Kay so much for this exact reason, i love the chaos so much
She seems more sad every time.
k, I'm not the only one seeing that
Wouldn't you?
This demeanor of Kay's is actually euphoric elation in British terms. I should know......🇬🇧
Im only 2 mins in but I'd bet my front teeth that is chicken.
Poor Kay. She seems sad. I can't help but feel for her, and her dinner guests...
Edit: She said "oofa doofa" we often refer to the thing we cant remember as a doofer. It's a thingamjig.
Looking a little tired and exhausted at this point, someone should get her uberEats
I thought she looked/sounded sad too
@@CharlesL3G I did think that at first too but it appeared to whiten and then brown more like chicken. I guess we'll never know
I think it's pork.
The way she left her wooden spoon in the pot while the soup was boiling…its gotta make the whole thing taste like a wooden spoon
Did you notice the burn marks on the side of the spoon as well?
@@Ms_eLLE omg yeah 😭
And it's tinned soup... it's not supposed to be boiled like that!
This feels like a creepypasta. Found footage that was never meant to be seen.
August, this is on you.
You've never heard of chicken supreme? That's the joke. Kay being Kay she's called it steak supreme and put her characteristic "twist" on it.
If any of my friends feel like they can't cook and are afraid to branch out and try new recipes, I direct them to Kay's cooking to inspire them.
She may not have good taste in cooking, but she certainly has good taste in music.
Funny enough she doesn't like the band's on the t-shirts, she only likes the style
Lol
Disrespecting Iron Maiden with wearing that!
@@ohsoedgy6888 I mean, you aint wrong
@@jokerincgaming2730
Wow, I was not even aware of that.
The more you know I guess.
The way she says "Honions" instead of Onions. Had me cracking. 🤣🤣🤣
Lee gets drunk and runs over animals and brings them to Kay for “steak” and other meals.
Kay's Cooking is chaos incarnate.
After she says these are bits of steak she slurs her words and repeats that a couple times, then mumbles about having to flip them over a couple times and finally ends with "before I add the honey"
"Before I add the onion"
Not
"Before I add the honey in"
@@Peepjouster27* Hunyens. 😂
@@meaculpabethYikes. That's dark.
Pour 2 cans of mushroom soup and a whole chicken in a crock pot on high for 4-5 hrs depending on the size of yard pimp and spoon over rice or egg noodles. Easy cheap and tasty.
Unsure why this is called 'steak supreme' as there's a distict lack of steak, I can however clarify the 'supreme' suffix. There's a dish in the UK known as chicken supreme, which is basicallly chunks of chicken in a white sauce. You can make it yourself or buy it premade in a can.
I feel like Kay is the physical manifestation of every British cooking stereotype I've ever heard.
When i saw her dusting the mystery meat and huneeons with spices i about jumped out of my chair, until she said it was tasteless parsley. Still though, adding color (albeit without any flavor) is a milestone for her
i badly hope that this is satire. she is the type of chef to think salmonella comes from salmon
😂😂😂
Actually salmonella can come from raw fish...including Salmon
@@monicasmithtofantheflames3733 i know, but its well known from coming from chicken
Kay is having fun that's what matters
An offah-doofah. You know; a thingamybob. A whatchamacallit.
Love how u are so awesome with ur tips but still having ur reg personality come threw!❤❤😂
I think she’s a genius fooling us all
I've been a home cook for over 50 years and other than her stupidity she is not fooling us all. But her recipe is not called steak supreme but looks more like Chicken Stroganoff. But I prefer the Beef Stroganoff. I would have also added sour cream and ate it over noodles. I gave her 👍👍for this recipe. She has really improved her cooking. And she did fine on the preparation as well.
But, I would love to see her make homemade mayonnaise which I make all of the time. Can't stand that store bought crap.
She secretly serves 9 michelin star meals when she's not on camera
@@100PercentOS2uh huh
In some dishes, Kay has actually added some to a lot of parsley.
Honestly at 1 minute and I already see som improvements. Old her would've boiled that chicken looking "steak" and managed to burn the onions somehow
🥩
@@GChr15 Oh nooo😭😭😭😭
@augusttheduck
Hi August! Always love your vids man.
My people are part of the Cymraeg Diaspora that saw entire families, who were involved in mining, move up into northern England as new pits opened around the beginning of the 20th century.
Hence, I have not only a few languages but some dialects under my belt. I'll tell you any phrases that you were stuck on:
At around 2:33, where you said you got lost after the work steak, this is what Kay said:
"... steak, that I've cut up so I take a piece of steak, turn it over, turn a few over, there's just a few that need to be done and turned over before I even decide to add the honey-ons" (she's punning as you can guess Onions - honey-ons)!
6:45 - You asked about "Oompa Loompas". That's not what she said. She said "Oofer doofer". She was referring to the wooden cooking utensil, but this one is slightly more cryptic, possibly even for other regions of the UK.
When you can't think of the correct word for something, or it just temporarily slips your mind, you tend to come up with placeholder words.
"Doofer" is a good one, and a historic one. My biological mother used to be ALWAYS asking me to pass that doofer, or grab the doofer that goes on the hoover or such things.
It originates in phrases such as "That'll do for now", "This'll do for the job". From there - Doofer. She's just added rhyming Oofer first.
HMU anytime you need any help - I've lived all over the place, the world even, but Kay's accent is about 25miles west, and maybe a few miles north or south, of where I lived for a part of my youth. These are geniune "pit village accents" and they reflect the tough lives, the decent times, the nightmare of 1984-1985, and after that, the spiral and descent into insanity the pit villages all suffered.
So I know this is a year or so late, but seriously, since I can hear EXACTLY what she's saying (one of my married-in aunties has almost the same accent and turn of phrase, only geographically softened), I have no worries if you just want to message me direct before or after and I will lend you my ears! I like your work August, I don't offer my services for free to just anyone!!
Take care man, keep making the good stuff!
getting home from work to watch this, doesnt get better than that. Thanks August!
Why has Kay seemed so sad in the last few episodes? Am i the only one interpreting her tone and body language like that?
Petition to now call wooden spatulas “oompa-loompa”.
kinda racist idk
I petition to arrange a cooking competition: Kay, jack, the mountain dew guy, the guy who cooks in a toilet. Cutthroat Kitchen style judged by Ramsay, Morimoto and Mr. White Hear himself!
@@reliktimlmfao what
She's saying "Oofer doofer".
Finally! More Kays Cooking Content 😁
In the UK this is actually called Chicken Supreme which I think is taken from a french dish, it's like a thick chicken mushroom thing, no idea why she's called it steak supreme.
Supreme steak is the type of shit you take after eating this mystery meat mushroom soup and onions combo
Can’t wait for Kay to pull the rug out from everyone and make a Gordon Ramsey level dish
I watched the original video when she posted it a few days ago. Kay is my favorite disaster cook right up there with Jack. I still can't find a recipe for this either. I have enjoyed Your content more after I have watched her original. I generally found my laugh again.😂😂
Hey August, I think I have found the recipe that she was working from! I think where she got confused is that it says "cream of chicken soup" and "mushrooms" thus, somehow she ended up with chunks of chicken and mushroom soup. In Australia, we actually have "Supreme" pizza which is usually meat with red onions and mushrooms (plus some other stuff)- so this is definitely coming from a real recipe- albeit a misread one.
American here, Supreme pizza here consist of onions, peppers, sausage, and mushrooms
OKAY SO, european with chefy background here to explain a few things:
-Steak means different things to americans vs europeans. In the american sense, steak is always a cut of beef, or in case of a beefsteak, minced beef formed into shape. To a european, basically any larger cut of meat can be a "steak", whether its beef, pork, turkey etc, or minced meat shaped into a "steak" form. Depends on the country or culture.
-There are some dishes that contain the name steak despite being made from smaller cuts of meat. Depending on the country we'd call this "Geschnetzeltes" or Ragout usually, maybe goulash, but sometimes you see a dish use the term steak because it was made from a cut up steak originally.
-No I have no idea what Steak Surpreme is supposed to be, I scoured my cookbooks and google for it.
-I think Kay is trying to make some kinda Ragout here, with what the meat and onion cooked and mixed with sauce. Which is a pretty classical dish. And for once, despite using canned mushroom soup as "sauce" it doesn't look as terrible as her egg coated minced meat.
come on now the kay's cooking cinematic universe is only growing more elaborate with time. she's playing the long game. we love our kay
I am used to watching Kay's cooking now. 😄
But is it me or does Kay sound down and tired in this video?.🤔
7:06 Oompa Loompa. 🥴?
1:16 it doesn’t look bad
Does Kay have any kind of Patreon or other support page? I think with the near limitless good content and joy Kay brings we could all pitch in and send her some cooking equipment or something as a gift. I imagine she would truly appreciate something like that and allow her to up some of the quality for her channel like you were talking about.
Heck no not till learns to actually cook sorry
exactly. She seems like such a sweet woman and could gain a lot of following with some better production quality
@@cynicalnerdycinephileyeah there's evidence on Reddit she's more than a little racist. She seems just dumb enough to be too, so I don't know if I'd risk it personally.
Not to defend Kay's cooking, but 'boiling point' is a genuine culinary term in Britain, and it means exactly what it sounds like. 😂
Such enthusiasm from Kay here. 🤣🤣
Why is she so sad lately 🥺
the food Kay and Lee eat are more dangerous than a blue ring octopus venom/poison.
Gotta give props for august for these videos🙂

I remember back in college, in the canteen they often had what they called "chicken steak" on the menu, which was made of (I believe) chicken breast. Don't know if that's any sort of a widespread thing though. Same with the 900g can of "salmon steak" I've got at home. Both of these were/are large pieces, rather than (near) bite-sized chunks. Still, it seems to indicate to me that there are more things at least colloquially called "steak" than just beef cuts.
I love the idea of a crowdfunded effort to raise her production quality. My 0-100 brain relishes the idea of her in a classic style cooking show, full blown stage kitchen and everything
I’m sure she’s made quite a bit of money on YT and could afford all that and more .
0:10 made me laugh
I'm genuinely concerned for Kay. She's always out of breath and seems tired.
No same, for real part of me worries she might also be showing signs or symptoms of onset dementia
I hope we dont see another jack where she cooks herself into a stroke
That's pork loin, August. I just cut and cooked some up in a beans and rice dish. My pork cooked similar. But I seasoned mine differently, of course (≧▽≦)
reminds me of something we used to have when I was younger, consisted of cream of mushroom soup mixed with fried hamburger and onion ,a can of corn served over mashed potatoes. looks horrible but tasted good and really filled you up.
These cooking videos hurt to watch but August makes it easier.
At least she's trying, she looks like she enjoys cooking despite the results, why making fun of her?
Nobody's making fun of her, they're making fun of her cooking. Everyone loves Kay
