- AD | We thought we’d gone too easy on the normals recently. So this time we’ve teamed up with Picky Wicky to give them a challenge that’s sure to get them thinking… it’s a Korean Fusion Battle!
They’ve each got one can of Picky Wicky’s finest kimchi. They’ve got to use it to cook up something creative, different and downright delicious. How far can they take it? Will their dishes meet the brief? And will it be more fusion or CONfusion? Only Ebbers can decide!
Get Mike’s recipe here: sorted.club/re...

Now that Barry has made a fusion burrito, Mike has to make one. Complete the trinity.
What should Mike's be?
@@SortedFood Maybe African Fusion?
True- but it’s only complete if all three of them infuriate the cultures to the point that the news reporters get involved!🧐🤷♀️😂
@@SortedFood English Breakfast Burrito
@@SortedFood I seem to remember Mike has a soft spot for Thai/Southeast Asian cuisine, that could be interesting
I would love to see the boys created a themed dish WITHOUT the help of the food team. Let’s see how far they’ve come.
I always wonder about that. And what they would come up with if they had to do it completely on their own.
Yeah, completely agree. I think they do it because it results in a better dish, but I do think it kinda doesn't force them to be wholely original which might be okay... I mean cooking is collaborative... I don't know. I feel mixed.
I think to have some appreciation of the food team they should film the process of video idea to outcome. I think (and assume) the video idea is decided, normals start spitballing a basic vein they want to go down and the food team build and support experimenting and guidance for execution.
If that's so to me it isn't too far off the process experimental home cooks go through but speed run with hands on support.. as I'll read blogs and take advice once I have an idea, watch an Adam Ragusea video if there is one to see a range of executions and then try something. If it fails or is imperfect I might try again with tweaks, or commit to memory what I thought was missing when I do it again in future.
Ben: “Can fuse, not confuse.”
Jamie: “Spaff, not Baz.”
Ok, I’m sorry but have I walked into a slogan writing competition? I’m ready to give awards!
You walked here?
@@FirstNameLastName-rh6zc it's a saying lol?
nah mate but you can have the "spam every sorted related video with quotes" badge.
@James Cook Unnecessary sledging mate
A t-shirt slogan competition should really be a thing...
Usually, I favor Mike’s creation in these battles but today Jamie has won over my heart and tastebuds.
egg
I agree with Ebbers :D
It all looked amazing but I'd definitely go for Mike's first!
You mispelled "I agree with Ebbers"
You might say.... He was trying to satisfy your tongue?
I think Jamie has overtaken Mike some time in the past year or so and some people are only just working that out.
For once, Barry is the one offending everyone with his mischievous "Burrito"
😂 how to offend everyone in one dish?
Why is it always a burrito?
@@Skenjin true!- I just saw a video where a girl tried a Yorkshire pudding made into a wrap/burrito- surprised the. It’s ah ent tried THAT one yet!
@@huggledemon32 the Yorkshire pudding burrito is phenomenal if you get it from the right place
Certainly hurt me with he way he said Jai-ro. That isn't how gyro is pronounced when it's referring to food.
This episode really just highlights how far the boys have come from being a "normal".
Absolutely, that dessert is a phenomenal concept, and Mike executes it perfectly here!
TBF i think a lot of these ideas are worked with the food team.
@@dizzygunner I think they have to do it at home. Like homework, and then bring it in and hope it's good to everyone else. Plus with time restraint pressure.
@@fireclaw2 yeah it's certainly a collaborative effort and I'm sure they're involved in the planning with the food team. But the food team is there to guide it, just like James used to guide recipes in the background as the development chef for Sorted.
What I do love is that you can clearly see the influence of the normals in the dishes - it's still very much their individual styles.
Of course, we all say that until the next Pass It On (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)
All of these look incredible honestly! Jamie's is perfect for like a movie night, Barry's is giving me a dirty cheat night meal and Mike is so intriguing and creative that you could blow anyone away, whether its date night or a dinner party! Well done lads
Thanks so much Charlotte, we're glad you loved the video and really appreciate the feedback :)
Totally agree!
I could imagine Mikes as a summer dessert. Especially if theres a barbecue around so you could char the pineapple before
As someone living in Korea, Jamie pronouncing 해물 파전 (haemul pajeon) as “hamel pajon” is the highlight of this video
harmful pigeon?
I was looking to see if anyone had left a comment like this! I don't live there (yet haha) but felt the same! It really was the best ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Hemél pajon 😂
Mike is always out of the box, love the creativity he adds
Edit: I freaking agree with Ebers
I'm so plzed he won, very well earned
As a Korean myself, this is awesome~ Koreans create all sorts of dishes with kimchi : stew, fried rice, noodle, dumplings,, even pancakes!
Love all the creative ways to incorporate kimchi into more dishes
barry's dish: "around the world in 80 tastes"
100% 😂
Absolutely loved the ingenuity of Mike's dish, would you guys ever be open to the idea of releasing a video showing the collaborative process between the normals and the food team when creating a dish or recipe?
Would be cool to get a little behind the scenes and guiding inspiration for creating one's own recipes.
Totally agree with this. I very often wish that I could see "behind the curtain" in a lot of my favorite shows.
I'd love this! It would be fascinating to see how many ideas were bounced around before deciding on the final dish - and do any/all of those ideas get made and taste-tested? If the food team don't want to be on camera, maybe one of the normals could talk through the process afterwards.
I thought Jamie is going to win with that spice loaded dish. But that wonton sure looks like something you never thought you’re gonna like, only for it to become something you can’t live without later on 🤤great job boys! Well done as always! 👏🏼
Thanks Pearl :)
I feel that while it's definitely innovative and I'm seriously contemplating testing it, when you think about it it's rely not that strange of a combination. Pineapple and caramel is not hard to imagine, pineapple and chili is a well known combination, so what you are adding is the fermented quality of kimchi, and you can make most things better with some fermented something.
Are we sure the brief for Barry wasn’t mixed up with Jamie’s?
Because that looks like a Jamie dish
It did look like a Jamie dish 😂
Dear god Barry, that's too many fusions, man was never meant to fly so close to the sun
I agree, I feel like his dish would've done better had he left some of the elements separate instead of rolling it all together lol
That’s one of the best battles in a long time
Thanks Justin.
"A late night naughty thing but perhaps a step too far." Ben quotes, out of context, coming in clutch with this video. Thanks, Ben.
Awesome video guys. I would love to see a behind the scenes showing how the food team works with the boys to come up with their recipes.
Ohhhh yes!- I hadn’t thought of that- that would be interesting!
One of my preferences in fusion food is that I can still identify the origins of the dish. In Jamie's and Mike's, they retained the spirit of the inspiration. Jamie's especially, seemed a perfect wedding between Korean and Indian elements. The flavors and textures are familiar enough that I can tell just by looking at it that I would thoroughly enjoy it. Mike's looked delicious, but I would have had to actually taste it to judge how successful it was. Based on looks alone, I would have handed the victory to Jamie, but if I had been able to taste Mike's, I might have reached the same conclusion as Ben. Baz gets full points for creativity, but he might have pushed the boat out too far. It might have been delicious in person, but its identity was lost.
Barry's dish honestly seemed like a case of "Too much of a good thing". As Ben himself said in the video, Barry was essentially fusing two fusions together.
As for Korean, I'm interestingly mind-blown by all the creativity!
It sure is quite bizarre, but what's all the fuss? Hope you liked every piece of it!
Sorted and Korean Englishman are my favourite TH-cam channels! You should collab more 💜
First off, the thumbnail is unreal! Well done! I know those sequences are not easy to capture. Also, it captures the spirit of the channel.
Thanks Pokhraj :)
@Johnny Caruthers you all right there guv? You seem lost.
the ultimate battles are not as fun when they arent all in the kitchen at once
I agree with Ebbers, also Mike’s expression at the end is just so adorable.
I love how they did appetizer, entree, and dessert.
I actually needed an episode like this. No stress or competition. Just fun exploration with Ebbers bringing some chef’s insight from the sidelines.
Italian finger kisses all around.
Another cracking video from the team at sorted, Korean food is something I have been interested in for a while and I think all three dishes hit the “fusion” mark whilst maintaining the flavours of Korea! Kudos Sorted once again!
Keep up the amazing work you do, I look forward to your videos every week!
Thank you so much Conor, we're so glad that you enjoyed the video and the Korean fusion twist :)
Thanks guys! I did think mikes wontons looked good but the pizza from Barry for my sounded the most intriguing!
Can’t believe I’m saying this but Char Sui, Burrito…Pizza… Kimchi… Barry takes it for me ! Played me like a fiddle !
“We travel the world in one dish.”
Yep, my thoughts exactly. What flavours does it have? I’m guessing all of them. 😉
All I can hear is Link from GMM saying "Oh my Flavours!"
Or none of them, depending on how it ends up.
Jamie, looking straight down the camera after being "complimented" is my work mood recently.
(Also, "great job for not doing a thing so I can later do the thing correctly" is sometimes my parenting style.)
Big fan of Barry’s hair. He’s living the dream.
Jamie embracing his inner Mr Blobby. "Blobby blobby blobby".
Editing on point, going from "roll" to "bowl".
3 superb, inventive dishes, totally different, really delicious sounding.
This was a really fun episode, guys, and really shows off just how far you have come over the years.
I’m not normally a fan of kimchi but my goodness those three plates look incred. Good work gang!
It amazing what you can do with Kimchi! :)
Seriously, if you find a can of Picky Wicky Kimchi (the brand they use in this video), give it a try! It is already stir-fried, and doesn't include shrimp or shellfish at all. So the flavor is much milder than most kimchis. Putting it in fried rice with cheese is one of my favorite lazy meals now.
The transition from tuck and roll to in a boll was glorious, well done Editors!
So glad to see ya'll in Josh and Ollies new restaurant! So cool!
5:10 replayed that about 5 times- BRILLIANT!!
My husband makes kimchi. I’m definitely going too try Mikes
Let us know how you get on :)
What I love about this episode is that it gives you so many ideas for elements you could add to a meal, like the kimchi pizza or the gochujang curry leaf mayo or the cheats BBQ sauce. So easy to make and I know it's going to be delicious!
I agree with ebbers when it comes to Mike winning I haven't tasted it but I think Barry's food looked more creative and something I would like to try
the pronunciation of haemul pajeon was interesting lol
Wait, wasn't Barry allergic to pineapple? He was devouring that mikes fusion dish like he just didn't care!
For some reason when pineapple is cooked he doesn't react in the same way.
@@SortedFood aah ok, I was just wondering based on the glazed pineapple from the kebabgrill episode
Honestly wondering the same thing so thanks for asking and answering
Lol I e seen him try pineapple on the show before- greed seems to win over anaphylactic shock sometimes!🧐🤷♀️🤣
@@OldManYellsAtClouds You beat me to the punch. Is bromelain the enzyme that keeps gelatin from setting?
As a Korean, never have I seen Kimchi actually blended in a mixer. Usually we just chop it finely and mix it with other ingredients. Also, I don't think I've seen a dessert with Kimcho. But all aside, I'm up for new variations and would love to try these :)
So my mum makes this spicy lemon pickle with jaggery or sugar in it, and Mike's kimchi pineapple tarte korèan sounds like it would taste very similar. I think I'd love it, but in a small portion. One of those might already be plenty.
I'm so glad that after these guys met up with the Korean Englishman group they decided to try out Korean food. They even used the same brand as them for the kimchi!
Barry's dish is the epitome of "don't put me in a box" 😂
My favorite uncommon use for kimchi: grilled mochi (rice cake), filled with chopped kimchi and cheese, brushed with soy sauce and wrapped in seaweed. So good!
sounds delicious!
Mike: “Thanks, Ben.”
Me: “OOOOOOOOOH WE HAVE OVEN FRESH DRAMA!”
Barry has such kinetic and creative skills. So many people wouldn't have been able to roll that crispy, very stuffed pizza so beautifully.
As a Korean Canadian, I hear "Korean fusion" and i get concerned. Korean food often has bold, unmistakable, flavours that don't really play well with others. But when it works... IT WORKS!
Jamie gets my vote this time. I hope you explore more Korean food, I feel like it often gets limited to Korean BBQ, but there is so much more!
Mike's is the one I'm most likely to try at home, as love cooking with pineapple. Jamie's would be a fab starter or sharing platter, and Barry's is a takeaway order for when you've had one of those weeks.
Spaff's dish is something you'd get with friends before going out. Casual, sharable, tasty.
Baz's dish is something you'd get after you've been drinking all night. Sloppy, devious, delicious
Mike's dish is something you'd get at an elevated fusion resturaunt. Innovative, delightful, trendy
I agree with Ebbers. YAY, Mikey!
Would love to see a spin the wheel type series with you guys - cuisines, hero ingredients, what course it is, equipment, rogue ingredients etc type of thing, all decided by chance and them just having to go with it 😅
I really think that Jamie is getting surprisingly good in this kind of stuff as time goes on. In my opinion, his idea was the best example of fusion. Barry has just overdone it, and however Mike made the most interesting one, but I would still try the pakoras as a "go to" kimchi fusion dish.
I love this but I miss them cooking at the same time in the same kitchen. Them messing with each other is so fun to watch.
Something I wonder from those battles (and from most cooking shows actually) : considering that we see the normals preparing their dish individually in the kitchen and they all look quite time consuming to make, and at the end we see three plates in front of Ben, have two dishes been sitting there getting cold while the other one is getting done? How much time takes place between the moment the clock for the cooking ends and the moment the eating starts? Are some dishes warmed back in the microwave or something ?
Probably tucked into owen after sexies. In some episodes when they prepare more food some of it wait in the oven for serving.
@@narcyz2134 man how does Owen get the food back out again without it looking weird? 🤔
Just kidding, I know it was a typo but I just had to 😂 my adhd brain just conjured up the image of a guy in his forties trying to get pristine looking food back out which he has been warming for like two hours, failing and then installing a cupboard door to his stomach which looks like a plate warmer inside 😂
@@cassandramuller7337 love the explanation 😂👏🏻
I agree with Ebbers. Mike is very creative, sometimes he misses and sometimes he hits it out of the park. This is a hit. Very creative, and sure it's very delicious. Good job guys.
My mum and I have been joking about sending you guys homemade kimchi since it’s way better than the tinned stuff and there is so many types out there! Do hit us up if interested 🤣 Love from a little British-Korean family! ☺️
I think when you're talking fusions, "things that shouldn't work together, but do" is probably the highest possible compliment.
"I agree with ebbers !" HOWEVER I would love to try that pizza thingy 😋 that looks BOMB for a cheatday! 😬🤪 ( and maybe use the sauce from the deep fry fishy dish 🤔 😉) .
I agree with Ebers. Also, this one has some of the most creative creations yet. Excellent work.
I thought baz was allergic to pineapple?
More so when it's raw. It's the enzymes.
I would love to see a video on the brainstorming with the food team and the whole recipe testing process, because these ideas are crazy!
Not that he needs it- but did anyone else feel like Barry was rolling that “gyro”(sp?) like a sushi roll!?- just to add one more cuisine into his mix! 😂
Brief: Fusion Food
Barry: "I'M GOING TO FUSION THE FUSION OUT OF FUSION-NESS!!!" 🤓🤓🤓
As Mike said, "I agree with Ebbers."
As a Korean speaker, despite the incorrect pronunciation of 해물파전, I fuck with spaff for trying. It’s nice to see the extra effort. Respect
Ben ranked them in the order I would have as well (keeping in mind we can't taste them). Mike's pineapple, carmel, kimchee, coconut yogurt treat looked divine! I was also really intrigued with Jamie's entry - it looked extremely tasty. I'm sorry, Bas, there was just a little too much going on in yours for me to get on board with it, but top points for creativity!
Totally agree with Ebbers comments on the crunch from the Kimchi. Whilst the funky fermented flavour is one way, blitzing it to remove all the crunch is missing something. I like mixing some kimchi through Steak Tartar along with some diced asian pear and sesame seeds.
How do you know you might have been watching too many Sortedfood videos?
I just thought of three jokes right before Ben cracked them. So I’m guessing I’m close. 😉🤯
Mind reader!
@@SortedFood haha. Considering that this video was made weeks ago, I need to work on my skills a bit more. 😉
We make pepper(hot) roti with kimchi now. The kimchi levels up that pepper roti! You get that tangy fermented taste with the pepper kick, total balance of flavours. Yummilicious is an understatement
I have never had kimchi, but went to the Asian Market on Friday, was going to get some there and forgot about it. That place was freezing cold. I would probably try the pineapple kimchi dessert. It looked really yummy.
These are so creative...Barry... I think you just pissed off 4 cultures at once lol I LOVE IT
Did Barry forget his pineapple allergy again
Barry really is the last normal left. Mike and Jamie have moved up a bracket or two. Baz the Spaz needs a bit of work still. 😂 Love you guys!
Too easy on the normals?!? I'd hate to see you being evil then, Ben.
But can't wait because I adore kimchi and have three types in the fridge at the moment.
What a lovely stash of Kimchi you have!
i agree with ebber's assessment at the end: Jamie's is street food, great to share with a few others while wandering around market or sitting in a park. Not sure exactly when i'd go for Barry's pizza-burrito thing, but Mike's just LOOKS like a dish to serve for a desert...
I actually do agree with Ben. Before he revealed the order, that was my order too, for the same reason. Barry was too much into one thing. Jamie was interesting, but not enough. Mike was creative while not going overboard.
I love being introduced to dishes from around the world! Thanks Sorted team!
I so hope these recipes end up in the Sorted app !
They're in the description box below the video for ya :)
Benjamin Ebberell the king of shade and back handed compliments.
Poor Jaimie had to be on the receiving end of his shade today.
I didn't know the library was open.
:hope some one gets that last one:
Sorted: British people make Korean fusion
Me: Haven’t the Koreans been through enough?
As a Korean, I gotta say I love these and the thing that weirded me out the most was probably the fact that canned kimchi exists.
I respect everyone who were involved in this Seriously the best piece that i ve ever seen on TH-cam 💌 Hate off to well all 💟 love your videos ❤ ..
I agree with Ebbers.
...
Those dishes all looked so professional! That dessert was so pretty! as are the (new?) countertops
I make my own kimchi once or twice a year in 3-5 gallon batches (so think one of those big hardware store buckets, if you have a hard time visualizing volume), and we like to do the following:
+ Kimchi burgers -- lightly seasoned beef patty, mozzarella/muenster/oaxaca cheese melted on top, and a handful of warm (but not cooked) diced kimchi on top of the cheese. Any bun you want
+ Kimchi egg salad -- regular mustard/mayo boiled egg salad, but with diced kimchi tossed in
+ Kimchi mac n cheese --- 1lb dry pasta cooked in 2qts whole milk, stir in 3 heaping cups of grated cheddar when the noodles are just shy of done, add any seasonings, stir kimchi in upon serving. (trying to add it to the whole batch will just curdle the sauce once it sits for a few minutes)
+ Kimchi breakfast burritos -- standard breakfast burrito stuff, egg/cheese/chorizo or beans/mole, but instead of other vegetables or salsa, use kimchi
+ And of course the more classic fried noodles, jjeon, and just eating it plain as a side dish with rice.
One badge ought to be them working completely alone, without the help of the test kitchen 😎
Bacon, aged cheddar, and kimchi grilled cheese is my goto use for kimchi at home.
Among the food culture of Korea, special things that distinguish it from the food culture of other countries. //
1. Perfect vegan food represented by Korean Buddhist temple food
2. An endless variety of soup dishes
3. Kimchi: Vegetables fermented with animal protein represented by cabbage kimchi. In the past, only Koreans made and ate it. There are over 800 types of kimchi.
4. Jeotgal: A fermented animal-based sauce made from seafood. In Korea, there are more than 140 different types of salted fish.
5. Ssam: It means wrapping all the ingredients you want to eat in various leafy vegetables represented by lettuce. However, unlike burritos, you have to swallow them in one bite, so you need to adjust the amount of ingredients to be wrapped appropriately.
6. Herbal Medicine Ingredients : Herbal medicine ingredients are not only eaten for special diseases or health, but are also often used for general home cooking. For example, as ingredients for Samgye-tang, Mulberry, Tree Aralia, Eleutherococcus Sessiliflorus, Mongolian Milkvetch, Korean Angelica, Ginger, Jujube and Korean Ginseng are used.
7. Namul : South Korea is the country that eats the most dishes made with only vegetables without meat and seafood protein. Namul are foods made with one edible plant as the main ingredient. Examples of the types of Namul include Shepherd's Purse, Stringy Stonecrop, Korean Angelica-tree, Korean Wild Chive, Butterbur, Bracken, Doellingeria Scabra, Bamboo Shoot, Chamnamul and Cirsium Setidens.
// Etc... Korea shows a distinctly different food culture from neighboring countries in Far East Asia (China, Mongolia, Vietnam, Japan).
I can usually imagine flavors together but can't get Mike's combination in my head; I'd really like to try it.
The very fast, very sudden jump from Barry's to Mike's dish makes me wonder what in the world the boys said that they couldn't use......
Also, 100% agree with Ebbers - that pineapple thing was what intrigued me the most and I'd like to try it myself :)
Barry making a cheffed up version of Tomska's "Just F**k It" is so funny to me.
Congrats Mike. The caramelized pineapple kimchi fried lucky bag wontons are quite a genius fusion dish
Mike deserves a fusion badge!!!!
They all looked amazing!
Loved the Freudian slip from Ebbers at the end there 😂😉
I came across you guys when you were on with Josh and Ollie, and I'm SO glad I did!!! Absolutely loving getting all caught up, enjoying every minute!!! :)
I love that all of the guys, in timed battles, literally always stop what they're doing for far too long to explain things. Like the time Jamie was making hollandaise or was it bechamel and stopped whisking and the eggs set lol
Gosh you guys and your sense of humour and creativity are hillarious😍 I always enjoy watching or hearing you all in the background whilst I eat or prepare food at home. And your ways of engaging with your fans are superb! It feels almost like we're all in the same room. Greetings from Lithuania🇱🇹
