🤣 I don't know, Uncle Roger mocking Jamie Oliver never seems to get old, I still find myself snickering when he does it.

When I see a new Chef James/Uncle Roger video, I have to click. I absolutely love how professional, calm and analytical he stays to balance out Uncle Roger's comedic tone throughout.

You are slowly warming up to the camera and I'm here for it. Love this transition

Uncle Roger roasting Jamie Oliver Oil is classic. Never gets old.

Mocking chilli jam can never get old. This roast is immortal and always be fresh to me. Plus jamie ruined my fav butter chicken too which is unforgivable. :face-blue-smiling:

In Vietnam, I always have to peel the skin of garlic/onion/shallot, even if I'm going to use the whole thing for stock anyway, to make sure there's no mold growing underneath. Things get moldy easily here with the high humidity and the mold can be very well hidden under the layers. Her peeling the whole garlic makes perfect sense if she had experience cooking in places with high humidity,

I really like how Esther manages to maximise the few ingredients she was given, and turn them into a great-looking dish. Also nice to see a professional chef give his input on this.

I always finished my vegetables. I didn't have buddies telling me how awful veggies were, which makes a difference. Also, mom was a good cook. Which reminds me of an old joke. A kid asked a friend, "Do you pray before you eat?" His buddy said, "Oh no, our Mother is a good cook!"

We appreciate Chef James for staying true to himself. God bless him.

I feel that the only reason why Uncle Roger has his popularity to where he is on the totem pole is that if you listen closely to what he has to say in his roasts, you could tell that he has done his homework on every single dish he reviews and so on. Meanwhile Jamie Oliver on the other hand makes mistakes that shouldn't have been made in the first place and it is such a shame because I actually grew up thinking he was a pretty good chef with his own show and everything, until his Egg Fried Rice video that got reviewed by Uncle Roger. In my opinion, it is fine if you're making something for yourself but if you are going to upload yourself on youtube making a dish that is classed as authentic, you better make it authentic. If not, the internet is going to start piling onto you one by one with their pitchforks and torches

Uncle Roger roasting people is exactly why everyone watches him. He is hilarious.

Uncle Roger roasting Jamie never gets old.

I got no comments on how helpful James is with the explanations and background information, but I would like to comment on how hilarious it is when he silently judges any dirty jokes Uncle Roger makes

as an Indian and as a vegetarian, we as kids were taught just not to leave food uneaten, like stay for 2 hours but honour the food, there is literally someone across the street who doesn't get what you are getting... and slowly as we grew older, we started loving more and more vegetables and learnt which vegetable tastes best in what sort of cooking method, trust me, indian moms born in the 60's are no less than chefs, even my friends' moms cook so many traditional things, if you just hear the recipes you'll be mind blown

Esther is really amazing, I've watched quite a few videos with her, always professional and a ray of sunshine :-)

I love how you and Uncle Roger had the exact same reaction at 14:33. Also great video, always fun seeing you react to Uncle Roger

Uncle Roger roasting Jamie will never get old never

The roasting of Jamie Oliver NEVER gets old.

I think Esther gave the other cook ready-made rice that's a day old because you just have to cook it a day before. So it's the best chance with the best ingredients, and raw rice for fried rice you're making NOW isn't the best. Also, Esther is just a nice person from the looks of it.
