Alright you mugs if you want to give this a go here's the write-up barrylewis.net/recipe/3-x-microwave-mug-recipes/ good luck & please remember that the wattage of your microwave will make a big difference to the timings, have fun, make some mess and let me know how you get on ok :-) nice one
I suggest using one of those Mini plates that you put under a teacups ( I believe they're called saucer (Untertasse in German) ) to cover the mug, instead of using the plastic foil.
maybe is not as practical but if you only have a mug and a microwave, it's useful to know you can make something like this (imagine a poorly equipped airbnb, or someone just moving to a new house, idk).
Bowl mug. I plan to eventually check the thrift stores for the big soup bowl mug. The bottom is bigger than the opening so it might work better. Or just use a bowl. I'll probably still overfill it though. But that's on me.
Watched it, loved it even though I don`t have a microwave! But Barry, come on - soak the dates in hot black tea, not water!! It is a great way to push even more flavour and nuance in to the yummy sticky toffee pudding. I love your great, helpful and funny content. Keep it up!!
Barry, you crack me up! You are so very passionate about your food and every time you take a bite, it is almost like you're having mouthgasm. Too funny and thank you for the laughs!
Oh man this is awesome! I am someone who spends most of their time in a big rig truck, with only a microwave to cook in, and these are stonkin! I'd love to see what other microwave dishes you can make, Barry! Thank you so, so much for these!!
I love your videos! They make me smile! Although in this instance I wouldn’t do these mug recipes because if I’m already doing the work, might as well do full size and have leftovers. I like the recipes though. Thx for sharing!
Thank you so much for the toffee pudding recipe! Even though it’s absolutely *delicious* it’s still a surprisingly uncommon dessert here in the US. I’ve always wanted to try making it, but as a single person I don’t need 8 servings. This is a marvelous solution when I’ve got that craving for a treat!
Sadly, that salad has 3 things my low-acid stomach can't digest without chugging a shot of vinegar; raw carrots, raw scallions, and raw cucumber. My work-around: Pickle those ingredients in a bit of rice wine vinegar for an hour before adding them to the salad. This helps break down the cell walls without affecting the mouth feel of the salad. The vinegar that gets into the veg also adds a nice mild tang to everything. It's really nice.
Haha, I was going to post the same comment... Barry may be the messiest food channel on TH-cam lol ... well I mean besides the spoof parody type cooking channels that are messy on purpose. Barry is just a hilariously clumsy human... his cooking in the kitchen is the equivalent of a toddler trying to learn to walk for the first time haha Edit: just wanted to quickly clarify... I say this all with nothing but love.. It’s part of Barry’s charm. He makes a mess and we say “that’s Barry!” lol. Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t being overly mocking about Barry ✌️👨🍳
Fiona Mcfadden haha, yeah.. after I posted my original comment I was reading it back, and thought... “hmm.. I hope nobody takes this like I’m just bashing Barry...better edit in a disclaimer!” Haha
I'm really impressed with Boston's restraint! I'm sure he'd love to clean the floor for you, Barry!! The meals look delicious...your expressions are priceless!! :)
Here in the US in pretty much any thrift store they have giant soup mugs with the recipe on the side. Although it's not a mug recipe. You cook it then serve it. But the size with the bottom being bigger is nicer for serving soup or stew. They occasionally still show up in dollar stores too. I think they'd be perfect for mug meals. I may have to look for a new one.
hello fella, recently subscribed despite my lady worrying that i might buy loads of gadgets, i like the fact that you mention that the gadgets will or could help people with disabilities to continue enjoying cooking. i was a head chef but had a bad accident so i can no longer work in a kitchen but ive had a barrython and ive seen a few toys that will definitely assist me to cook. Good work mate and thanks because now i can prove im not the only one that gets excited about gadgets. Alan .
I've literally used and seen others use heroin and not any of us got that expression of complete bliss Barry gets from just... eating... food. It's like he's getting high on life. Must be nice.
I'm sorry for you and your friends struggles...I hope you can find a recipe/dish that tastes so good itll amaze you as much as these do for him here :)
For the noodle salad, it’s especially tasty with a splash or two of fish sauce! It gives that little bite and funkiness that you could also get from pickling the cucumber and carrot. Of course, you could always do both! 🤗
Hello, Barry! At 14:41, it looks like the first ever example of 'Mug dirty protest' on record. Otherwise, awesome, as always. I just made your Garlic Mushrooms on Toast - but was weak, and ate it before I could photograph it. Tasted great, and now the whole house reeks of garlic. Excellent.
Is it really a Barry Lewis video if there’s no mess afterwards? I like how realistic your kitchen adventures are, makes me feel like my messes are just part of the process!
I'm quite interested to try all of these recipes, although I have 5 of his recipes ahead of them in the queue (next up is the 3 ingredient vegetable curry with accompanying flatbreads, then the egg fried rice) and lacking one of those soup-bowl-with-a-handle mugs, I would use a bowl, thanks very much.
You should do some mug recipes in your 3 ingredient recipe series for people to make at college, work, a hotel room, or anywhere they don’t have access to a stove. When I was college, my dorm only had a microwave and a one burner electric “stove”. Mug recipes would have been awesome!!
I make a quick "satay" sauce with soy sauce, sweet chilli and crunchy peanut butter. And a stir fry with it is amazing. I think it would be good on that thai salad ❤
I’m so happy about this video! I have tried several times before to make a mug *cake* ...weren’t so successful. Edit: I made that comment before I watched the video, could you try doing a sweet based flavour dumplings? Maybe stuff them with apple and cinnamon or something like that! 😋🥟🥟 Have a happy day! ☀️
Hey Barry you can use the hole in your cutting board to get ingredients into small dishes without spilling, it's generally not that useful, but here it would be great!
A little suggestion for something naught if you're ever wanting to treat yourself. They do an ice cream in Lild, it's £1.89 and it's salted caramel and praline. I kid you not, it tastes exactly the same as hagen daas but for less than half the price!! 😋
I don't understand making the cold salad in a mug, unless you have no other dishes, or maybe you have a sink full of dirty dishes, and only a mug left.
The reflection in the microwave seriously freaked me out! Either sb was with you in the kitchen during filming or you have a creepy ghost watching you cook 😂
Barry bit of a random one but around 12:22 in the video when you close the microwave after putting the dates in what's going on in the reflection on the door 😂
Most newer microwaves have a ‘power’ function. If you cook at 50 or 5 power, it’ll cook half the time, and just spin on the turntable for the other half. That way you don’t have to stop it every 30 seconds and babysit it😂😂😂 also, using very low powers of 20-30 or so is great for reheating meat, so it doesn’t get firm and chewy and rubbery and overdone. That one function has made my life so much simpler!
Even with just a off the shelf caramel sauce the sticky date mug cake turned out so good. I made mine in a bowl, much less messy. The best tip I can have is to wear one’s glasses while reading the recipe or you may add 3 times the amount of soda. Not good. Second attempt with glasses worked well.
You need to poke holes in the glad wrap i think it might help it not spill Also probably just fill it like just over half so theres space for rising,mixing and adding stuff :)
As well as a bigger mug- you also need the chop and fold chopping board,Josef and Josef do them! Please do a sushi episode or try making dumplings (momos are easy!) and maybe some japanese ramen dishes next?
12:22 minutes in when barry puts the mug in the microwave,you can see some touch the wall and walk away it had me spooked,who is that..... a ghost?? Lol
I always wondered if you use an oversized mug with one of those mugcakes that's well known for overflowing, would you end up getting twice as much cake for your time and effort? I'd love to see what you could do with one of those Friends central perk\early morning talk show size mugs to work with ☕
While they look good and the recipes sound super nice. I think prep in a bowl, finalize and or serve in a mug to keep it cleaner and make mixing easier would be better over all.
Hi Barry, I’m originally from England but move to Egypt 8 years ago. I really miss chicken stew with dumplings. I can make the stew but we can’t get sewet in Egypt. Can you make a recipe for dumplings with out it please.
I think it is really gettin‘ time for you to go back in time and use your next stay in a hotel for a hotel-room-cooking-special like you did years ago, this here is not too far away from that!
You should have your own cooking show your absolutely amazing! You really don’t get noticed enough for how amazing you actually are making things simple,easy and a lot of fun to watch and inspiring to bring others to try new things or even try and cook if there not confident enough! You make me laugh right throughout your videos what a man you are! So glad I found your channel one of my favourite youtubers on here😍 keep doing what your doing your amazing😍🔥xx

hi
I have a problem I don't have a microwave 😣
Barry, what you need is a microwave soup mug. Sistema does quite a few. Search for Sistema Soup Mug on Amazon. 🍜
You have entered the territory of the Monarch of Mugs, Gemma Stafford! I would love to see you try some of her recipes :D
I suggest using one of those Mini plates that you put under a teacups ( I believe they're called saucer (Untertasse in German) ) to cover the mug, instead of using the plastic foil.
Barry this would be great, you just need to crack out the big sports direct mug and you’ll be sorted for space mate. 👍🏻😂
Great shout. I have one of those which serves me well in work but I could pick up a few more and get myself a grand dinner set :)
lol I have one of those.
Don't think it's microwave safe
Does every household in Britain have one of those big Sports Direct mugs..? 🤣 I use mine for coffee, because I drink tons of the stuff. 😁
@@archgirl it’s a true British classic
Well you have convinced me never to cook in a mug. I'm so glad that I have bowls.
XDDD
Bigger mugs would certainly help. For mug cooking, check out Bigger Bolder Baking. She has a multitude of mug recipes.
How much easier would the first dish be if you made it in a bowl lol. But love the video Barry!
Yes use a bowl - For Pug's sake use a bowl! :D
maybe is not as practical but if you only have a mug and a microwave, it's useful to know you can make something like this (imagine a poorly equipped airbnb, or someone just moving to a new house, idk).
@@catalinavaldivia3730 fair play, the amount of times I've been in hotel rooms with only a suspicious kettle and a smelly microwave
Bowl mug. I plan to eventually check the thrift stores for the big soup bowl mug. The bottom is bigger than the opening so it might work better. Or just use a bowl. I'll probably still overfill it though. But that's on me.
All 3 of them
Watched it, loved it even though I don`t have a microwave!
But Barry, come on - soak the dates in hot black tea, not water!! It is a great way to push even more flavour and nuance in to the yummy sticky toffee pudding.
I love your great, helpful and funny content. Keep it up!!
But Barry hates tea with a passion, I imagine tea would be the last thing he would soak anything in.
great vid as always but i have a thought that might make the recipes even easier....a bowl. i know its crazy but it just might work
The patented Barry Lewis method; make as big of a completely unnecessary mess as possible.
Barry, you crack me up! You are so very passionate about your food and every time you take a bite, it is almost like you're having mouthgasm. Too funny and thank you for the laughs!
There's your next book, Barry. Messy Mug Meals - market it for children.
Now, I'm off to make a mug meal of my own. A nice tomato Cup a Soup ;)
“I’m making such a mess today”.......... that’s literally every day Barry... it’s part of your charm lol
Oh man this is awesome! I am someone who spends most of their time in a big rig truck, with only a microwave to cook in, and these are stonkin! I'd love to see what other microwave dishes you can make, Barry! Thank you so, so much for these!!
The pug cameo in the microwave's reflection at the 12:22 mark had me thinking you might have a poltergeist crawling around behind you for a hot second
I was wondering what the heck that was. *looks again* Ok, yes, just a pug. Cool. I was also a bit spooked there!
Expectations: "I'm making such a mess today"
Reality: "I'm making such a mess everyday"
I love your trial and error methods because that is how I am with my recipes as well. Very entertaining as always!
What's going on in the reflection of the microwave at 12:21?
I want to know that myself. A mystery wall crawler.
That's bizarre. I think it's Boston. Odd angle though.
Its Boston's Bum!
It's Boston's rear end, with his "man-bun" tail, wiggling as he walks away. Lol
I've watched that part multiple times now and i just cant see a dog on it but a man.
"everybody loves a mug"
Yeah why do you think people subscribe to your channel? 😂
Jk love you Barry 😅
root vegetable aftershave advert should have the tag line "i am Root" lol
You really need to get an instant pot and start a play list with that! Please Barry. 😀
13/10 for the puggos mid-air beef snatches 💚💜
I love your videos! They make me smile! Although in this instance I wouldn’t do these mug recipes because if I’m already doing the work, might as well do full size and have leftovers. I like the recipes though. Thx for sharing!
these would be great in one of those 600ml soup mugs from corningware it would have more room than a standard mug.
That would be sooo Awesome!!
I've the same mug "Hello, is it tea you're looking for" 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much for the toffee pudding recipe! Even though it’s absolutely *delicious* it’s still a surprisingly uncommon dessert here in the US.

Yay! Messy Mug recipes. The dumplings look more like a crustless chicken pot pie.
Barry: I'm making such a mess today
But... you make a mess EVERYday.

,,/,&Rubita...yes!..he is proper lovable tho',int he...I just think he's great..haa..'bloody greeat',... he's funny...😂😂😂
RUBITA I was guna make a comment about that n say ‘when do ya not make a mess’ but I suppose that is cookin 😆 at least he has fun while doin it
I'm really impressed with Boston's restraint! I'm sure he'd love to clean the floor for you, Barry!!
The meals look delicious...your expressions are priceless!! :)
His dogs must be well trained. When I drop food before I can even look down its already been scarfed up.

Havent even finished watching but i already liked it after hearing "who doesnt love a mug"

Kroen Redstone drugs... no. Plz no.
@@jesusisthetruth4497 Remember, kids: If a stranger offers you drugs say "thank you" because drugs are expensive.
Kroen Redstone drugs are not a joke xd
Never before has a mugging been so informative. ;D
For the noodle salad, it’s especially tasty with a splash or two of fish sauce! It gives that little bite and funkiness that you could also get from pickling the cucumber and carrot. Of course, you could always do both! 🤗
This made me so hungry dammit Barry
You got more food on the floor and the kitchen top then you did in the mugs 😂😂

I've finally found someone who loves sticky toffee pudding as much as me!!!!❤
Barry, Yes, I was thinking the same thing. Mix in an other bowl, saves on cleaning, lol!! Looking nice and delicious!!
I'm quite interested to try all of these recipes, although I have 5 of his recipes ahead of them in the queue (next up is the 3 ingredient vegetable curry with accompanying flatbreads, then the egg fried rice) and lacking one of those soup-bowl-with-a-handle mugs, I would use a bowl, thanks very much.

I have already tried the mug cake and it's amazing, next time I'm craving something sweet I know what to make.
Loved the Frozen snowman band aid man! Very classy 👌

Awesome hope you try it, just about experimenting with the timings with your microwave power taken into consideration
Hey Barry you can use the hole in your cutting board to get ingredients into small dishes without spilling, it's generally not that useful, but here it would be great!
Barry: I am making such a mess today!
Me: Really Barry just today, are you sure?!😁😁
I bought that can colander after seeing your gadget video. It is great with tuna cans.
So good
Since the Frozen plaster is making you invincible to the heat, you could say the hot never bothered you anyway 😂
The sticky toffee pudding is making my mouth water 🙈 yum!
Your reactions to the flavors are the best haha
A little suggestion for something naught if you're ever wanting to treat yourself. They do an ice cream in Lild, it's £1.89 and it's salted caramel and praline. I kid you not, it tastes exactly the same as hagen daas but for less than half the price!! 😋
Love you and your lovely family! Hopefully you get them a bit more in your videos, much love ro you from Michigan
When your having a barrathon and a new video comes out! Amazing as always!
Awesome thanks
barry they look so GOOD!!! can you do a video of vegetarian mug recipes please? can't wait to try them!
Brilliant for university exam season haha so easy
I don't understand making the cold salad in a mug, unless you have no other dishes, or maybe you have a sink full of dirty dishes, and only a mug left.
College students. I've been there
The reflection in the microwave seriously freaked me out! Either sb was with you in the kitchen during filming or you have a creepy ghost watching you cook 😂
Mug X 3 = make a series out of this
Barry bit of a random one but around 12:22 in the video when you close the microwave after putting the dates in what's going on in the reflection on the door 😂
It's one of the pugs

Yesssssss new videoooo. Definitely going to try these😍😍😍😍😍
You should have done 3 minutes on 70% power, same result, no spillage ;)
I have an idea for a new lionel richie mug. "Oh what a feeling this coffee is steaming". For the coffee lovers
Your puppers are just so darn adorable❤💚💜😊
Barry: I'm making such a mess today.
Me: Today!?! 😂😂😂
That noodle salad looks delicious. Might give it a try.
Love meals in a mug. You did good!
I may not have a microwave but I still am watching this!
My sister just moved out and took the microwave so this came at completely the wrong time 😂 oh well, I'll try them when I have one at the weekend!
Love this idea! Great job Barry👊
Yay! New Barry video!
These look really good!
12:22 minutes in when barry puts the mug in the microwave,you can see some touch the wall and walk away it had me spooked,who is that..... a ghost?? Lol
Where did u get the cling wrap dispenser?? I have to have one Barry😁
Can you cook it in the oven if you don't have a microwave? I really enjoy your videos and plan on making a few of the recipes.
Awesome mug recipes Barry
You said Mogo. And now I got this Wham! Song stuck in my head. 🎵Wake me up bevore you Mo-Go. Don‘t leaf me hangin on like a Yo-Yo! 🎶 🤦♀️
even the queen in the background is interested in your meal in mugs.
It all looks good wish I coould eat the sticky toffee pudding but I'm allergy dried fruit.
I always wondered if you use an oversized mug with one of those mugcakes that's well known for overflowing, would you end up getting twice as much cake for your time and effort? I'd love to see what you could do with one of those Friends central perk\early morning talk show size mugs to work with ☕
lol Barry said a cold beef style Thai salad at 5:14 🤣🤣🤣
@Barbie Benton he meant to say cold Thai style beef salad !! 😂😂
Thank you, please do more!
i'm obsessed with watching your videos.
While they look good and the recipes sound super nice. I think prep in a bowl, finalize and or serve in a mug to keep it cleaner and make mixing easier would be better over all.
I never realized how tiny his microwave is. Camera must make everything look larger. If that's true, Barry and family must be hobbits. Lol.🤣💙
I love these resipes. They are the best. Can you please make mug cakes? And please show us how to make ice cream and sorbets too. Hugs from Norway.
Hi Barry, I’m originally from England but move to Egypt 8 years ago. I really miss chicken stew with dumplings. I can make the stew but we can’t get sewet in Egypt. Can you make a recipe for dumplings with out it please.
Great mug shots there, Barry!
Look at the Mug on that Pug!
And the Pug on that Mug!
I can’t wait for your product line to come out!
It's so interesting to me .. I wanna get google cup..!!
"You have to embrace the messiness! Or you could only fill up your mug halfway, so it has space to rise lol
Barry, if you havent tried it before (i dont think so but i could've missed it) could you try poaching an egg in a mug?
I think it is really gettin‘ time for you to go back in time and use your next stay in a hotel for a hotel-room-cooking-special like you did years ago, this here is not too far away from that!
You should have your own cooking show your absolutely amazing! You really don’t get noticed enough for how amazing you actually are making things simple,easy and a lot of fun to watch and inspiring to bring others to try new things or even try and cook if there not confident enough! You make me laugh right throughout your videos what a man you are! So glad I found your channel one of my favourite youtubers on here😍 keep doing what your doing your amazing😍🔥xx
How isn't there a 'Keep calm and Barathon' shirt / mug yet!? Get on it man! 😆
