As a Spaniard who lived in England, I will personally defend Full English and Sunday Roast as great dishes. I also like Scottish haggis and Stilton cheese.
How could I forget about mince pies? Homemade ones are absolutely finger-licking! I like them slightly warm with some mulled wine, while opening a Christmas cracker!
I left for the states a decade ago and I still get cravings for steak and kidney pie or liver and onions now and then. Yanks don't know what they're missing out on by deriding organ meats. OH, and one must not forget Black Pudding. God damnit now I'm salivating.
A traditional Cornish pasty has no peas. It is beef skirt, potato and swede, salt and pepper encased in pastry. I believe parts of Mexico do something similar as they came here to mine and took it back with them.
My grandmother made Yorkshire pudding in a tray and would put the roasting joint on top to let the juices drip on to the pudding. Absolutely scrumptious.
We love pies also in Argentina, we call them "tartas" and the most popular is made with ham and cheese but we can have it with any filling. The same happens with the "empanadas", which are similiar to Cornish pasty but smaller (you eat severar of them) but we have more than 50 varieties of fillings, according to the influence we had from our inmigrants and the natives cuisine. The shepherd's pie, is known here as "pastel de papas" (potato pie) or "Pastel de carne" (meat pie) depending on the province. It is as popular as in the UK. Some time ago it was asociated to Winter Season, but people eat it all year round. Of course, as it happens with the indian food there, you have your own version of it, well, we made certain variations to the original Shepherd's pie, though these variations also are different from province to province or from family to family hahahaha. By the way, I prepare scons almost daily and eat them with tea with milk... Idk, but my mother prepared many recipes from England, probably because of some old ancestry in our family. I'm sorry to tell you but certain recipes were probably taken by the Romans when Britain was the Roman Province of Britannia, for example the Cornish Pasty, is only another version of "empanadas" which some say its origin is in Arabia and they took them to Spain and others say directly that they are Spanish.
I’m from Lancaster Pennsylvania and a lot of our food is similar to the dishes you mentioned. I grew up with these meals ❤️❤️❤️❤️LOVE shepherds pie, & roasts! We eat chicken pot pie, veggie pies. Mmhmm. And I know our style comes from our local Amish, they are Dutch , Pennsylvania Dutch
An adorable smile you've got there. I apologize if an intruding on your privacy. I mean no disrespect, just wondering if we could be friends? You see like a really nice person. If yes, kindly send me a friend request.
@@branthomas1621 I'd guess he means pickled onions. All chippies sell pickled onions, and 'wallies' (big dill pickled gherkins), and some also offer pickled eggs too, as side dishes.
As an American, it was fun to see that about half of these dishes are also pretty common in the US. It is a good reminder that while the US has a very distinct culture from the UK, we still have many strong cultural ties to our English roots.
@@rpaafourever7908 yep some came from shite countries to escape poverty, famine, or war related reasons! But even those w British roots those are possible reasons ppl migrated to the US.
Hi there from Italy. I had them all but Eton mess (don't think I've lost something) and Trifle. About this, it is quite funny that we have a quite similar version named "Zuppa Inglese" (English Soup)
When I was in England my host cooked a full English breakfast every morning (minus the black pudding and baked beans) and each Sunday a roast I gather because I was there, they looked at me blankly when I said you must have pumpkin with the dish. At Wetherspoons I ordered the fish and chips with mushy peas. Only at the fish! Best meal was in Slough when we went to an all you can eat Indian restaurant, the carrot desert was amazing and only 20 pounds including a gin and tonic. Haven’t tried the other food I try not to consume sodium or processed meat. The deserts look delicious
Pork is the best choice on a sunday dinner gotta get that crispy crackling dipping with thick hot gravy mmmm - ... I always thought Eaton Mess was called that cause you're Eatin' Mess ;) - gotta put the jam first then cream or the Jam just smudges all the cream about..
I'm happy to see you're proud of your food. One day I traveled to England it was difficult to find a British restaurant but there was many torkish and pakestani and afghani restaurant, specially torkish ones with staffs with weired body language and foods that obviously aren't noble. I felt sad, however I found a good British restaurant with high quality food and services.
My Danish grandfathrer, Henrik Bay, who I and my cousin are named for had an unfortunately unkind opinion of British food. He said, "All they know how to make over there is set peas; they boil everything, and it all tastes the same". I am very glad to hear that he was wrong, and I'm willing to try anything once.
Cream can refer to all it's variations. British English would refer to light and heavy cream as single and double cream, respectively. However, it would usually be specified if it was referring to clotted or whipped cream.
I heard chicken tikka masala started in London when a guy ordered chicken tikka found it dry so he asked the waiter to take it to the chef and get him to make a sauce so the chef looked at what he had and used a tin of tomato soup, cream, and some spices and so chicken tikka masala was created.
Years back a family friend (who's dead now) was a farmer and he said he ate a full English breakfast every day (for breakfast, not brunch). And that makes perfect sense for someone doing such a physically demanding job. He was a sturdy muscular man and not fat at all since he burnt off all the calories working on the farm.
Not parsnips… Just thinly sliced beef (usually skirt, or chuck, cut across the grain), potatoes and swede (both also thinly sliced), and onion. Seasoned with black pepper and salt. The pastry (short pastry) is filled with the raw ingredients and baked.
A FULL ENGLISH, SUNDAY ROAST YORKSHIRE PUDDING you've just mentioned were all my favourite dishes whenever I visited Britain (quite a few times, actually) plus some fish .
I lived in the UK 50 years ago........first English food I thought of was a roast dinner with gravy all over it ( and it is ok to tear the Yorkshire pudding to maximize gravy retention)
I feel like i was really lucky growing up. My dad used to be a chef so we had everything made from scratch. My favourite meals as a kid where mince and dumplings, toad in the hole and full english breakfast
I prefer a Scottish breakfast, like a full English but also includes haggis, Lorna sausage, Stornaway black pudding, Tati scones, fruit pudding and dumplings.
I'm a Yank here that lives in Atlanta, but I'm an Anglophile at heart, or more specifically a Britanniophile as you can't forget the Scots, Welsh, and Northern Irish too, and I love lots about regular Ireland too. It just so happened to be that I was playing team trivia at an Italian restaurant/bar, and one of the questions was something along the lines of, "In 2001, what was declared Britain's national dish by the late MP Robin Cook?" I didn't know it 100%, but my hunch was chicken tikka masala. Of course, all of my teammates vetoed me and said "fish and chips" which of course was WRONG, and of course they owed me a beer afterwards (LOL) for incessantly insisting that chicken tikka masala was a true, authentic dish from India. They didn't believe me when I said chicken tikka masala was actually INVENTED in the UK. Some say Birmingham, and some say Glasgow but there's no way to know for sure.
Hello, good morning :) I've just watched your video about meals - love it :) I'm realy impressed how you arrange it in a funny way. I have one request - could it be possible to put the names of food (in this case) and other words in other videos on the top? When I have the transcriptions on it covers the name of dishes :( Thank you for reading it. Good job! Cheers
Personally, I don't think British food is anywhere near as bad as people claim. If anything, it's the health issues it can cause. I'm technically Italian but I spent a large part of my youth in the UK. Where Italians would use olive oil, British people would use other vegetable oils (sunflower oil for example), which are known for being high in trans fats (the worst type of fat you can eat and the only type your body doesn't need). It's why I never eat fish and chips, since they are both fried in vegetable oils. Having said that, I think that what also gives British food a bad image is the fact that adaptations of foreign foods are often terrible. I once saw a boxed Carbonara that you were supposed to cook in an oven at Lidl, which is utterly disgusting. I wasn't the one who bought it but I did try it and it tasted horrible. Carbonara is my favourite Italian dish and I take it very seriously so that really made me want to throw up lol. British stores are filled with instant cooked foods that you can just put in the microwave or the oven. Having lived in the UK, living a healthy lifestyle with good (even traditional) food isn't hard at all. It's just that most people choose not to out of convenience. But, then again, there might be a bit of bias from me since I love potatoes, butter, eggs and meat, which are very common in British cuisine. I actually had a few issues with Italian friends in the past because they only eat milk with cereals or biscuits (traditional Italian breakfast doesn't exist) whereas I eat eggs in the morning
I think the one successful and improved adaptation of Italian food by the British are Pasta dishes. When in Italy, I find they cook their pasta al dente which is almost too hard to my taste and there is only a small amount of watery sauce. The Brits have taken this to a different level all together with slightly softer cooked pasta and much thicker, generous sauces. I love pasta and would eat it every day if I could.
The reason you have that pasty is that during the war we had a shortage of miners so because parts of Mexico where your mines are we’re dealing with closures so a group of miners came to Cornwall to help with the lack of workers. When the miners returned, they took a version of the Cornish pasty back with them and it became very popular over there and now you can I believe get a couple of variations, as we can in the UK too.
From 1830 to 1840 Cornish miners - widely considered the best hard rock miners in the world - were recruited to open up mines in Mexico largely through family networks with most coming from the mining towns of Camborne, Redruth and Gwennap. While most eventually returned to Britain, others chose to remain in Mexico and in doing so introduced the locals to the pasty.
I think we may be explaining this in a livestream in our 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS! Maybe something that will help is google “mince pies”? Maybe that’s what you’re looking for! They’re delicious ☺️☃️
Im in love to one tiny british😅 girl , so i have to learn everything from language to food , literally im struggling with english but to be honest after watching this video i feel relief about food atleast thanks you
How strongly I want to eat some British food after watching this video! As Chinese I am very proud for you mentioning Chinese food in this video. Are Chinese food common in Britain?
As a Brit who left for the states. I'll say that the core of British cooking is in Stews, Pies, and Roasts. Pies especially are an interesting facet of this since they differ so completely from French pastries or even the American view of a pie. Hot water crusts, suet, etc form those dense but tender pie crusts that can hold up to being filled with steak and ale, kidney, or other hearty fillings, and that's not even going into regional specialities like pork pies or cornish pasties.
All the dishes that you mentioned it looks delicious (especially the desserts🤤😋). But the fish with chips caught my attention because it resembles a popular meal in my region which consist of elongated pieces breaded fish usually served with shrimp 🦐🍤 broth and a variety of side dishes: marinated rice 🌾; lettuce 🥬, tomato 🍅, onion 🧅, cabbage 🥬 and avocado 🥑 salad 🥗; CHIPS; hot sauce 🔥🥵; cornmeal pancakes🌽; etc. Taste delicious 😋🤤!!!
Excellent video 👍 All your fans wish to know about the food that you cook a lot which is easy to cook or you cook when you don't have much time to cook. (Don't worry as this secret will only remain in comments among your fans) 🙂
You're totally right that 'shepherd's pie' uses lamb (the clue's in the name) and that 'cottage pie' uses beef (where the clue isn't in the name). That said, many people incorrectly use the term 'shepherd's pie' when they should say 'cottage pie'.

@@PortmanRd you dumb edit just because that's some of the stuff that stuff they served their doesn't mean thats all the eat they have amazing sweets like crepes, macaroons, and pancakes which their the creators of problems some of the best pantrys and bakerys in world with Bugatt's and crusants which are foods home to the French and other amazing foods like souffle I can keep on going with foods for days its a huge part of French culture. Like believe me french food is way better than British food just because they have a broad taste for food and are willing to experiment dosent mean there food is bad they have some of the best-known food, cuisine restaurants in the world along with chefs I can't believe you said what said your actually dumb for even saying that
American here: In America gravy refers to a category of sauces that are usually made with the meat drippings that are then thickened, seasoned and turned into a sauce. Common gravies in the US are turkey gravy, beef gravy, and sausage gravy.
Today we were supposed to watch this in English class but my classmates were being too loud so the teacher just let us go because he got upset at them, thanks guys
Jellied eels and pie and mash shops are more an east end of London thing, I've never seen jellies eels outside of the south east, there was one novelty pie and mash shop in Liverpool, but I believe it closed down relatively quickly and it did no trade
As a Spaniard who lived in England, I will personally defend Full English and Sunday Roast as great dishes. I also like Scottish haggis and Stilton cheese.

10:31 I know Bez is behind camera making you laugh... that was spontaneous!
U r right that Chicken Tikka is an Indian cuisine, but the accent is not tikka, rather it is tik--ka; first "Tik" then "ka"👍👌 really delicious
Just so you know when I clicked on this video I expected the yorkshire pudding and roast. Mmmm dang it looks incredible
Excellent video 👍
All your fans wish to know about the food that you cook a lot which is easy to cook or you cook when you don't have much time to cook.
(Don't worry as this secret will only remain in comments among your fans) 🙂
Thanks
You're totally right that 'shepherd's pie' uses lamb (the clue's in the name) and that 'cottage pie' uses beef (where the clue isn't in the name). That said, many people incorrectly use the term 'shepherd's pie' when they should say 'cottage pie'.
Do u british ppl eat meats daily in ur brunch nd dinner?????
'' Hot? Beer!... Cold? Soup..!''
You forgot the haggis. A sheep's stomach stuffed with meat and barley. Better after have played at rugby with it. 🤣🤣
Keep up the good work👍👍👍

I like how you didn't mention Frances cuisines not once in this video🤔
Yes she put a lot of effort not mentioning France... :)))
Frogs Legs and Snails. Yummy!! 😏🤢🤮🤭
@@PortmanRd you dumb edit just because that's some of the stuff that stuff they served their doesn't mean thats all the eat they have amazing sweets like crepes, macaroons, and pancakes which their the creators of problems some of the best pantrys and bakerys in world with Bugatt's and crusants which are foods home to the French and other amazing foods like souffle I can keep on going with foods for days its a huge part of French culture. Like believe me french food is way better than British food just because they have a broad taste for food and are willing to experiment dosent mean there food is bad they have some of the best-known food, cuisine restaurants in the world along with chefs I can't believe you said what said your actually dumb for even saying that
I eat scotch eggs pretty much everyday...they taste better cold .. they're awesome
I have a question: is gravy (correct?) a name of one especific sauce or is it one category of sauces?
American here: In America gravy refers to a category of sauces that are usually made with the meat drippings that are then thickened, seasoned and turned into a sauce. Common gravies in the US are turkey gravy, beef gravy, and sausage gravy.
@@patrickcollier7090 Thank you very much!!! I'm a cook and also a teacher at gastronomy college in Brazil.
@@demetriusbrito646 Gravy is originally Indian.the juicy sauce after cooking a meat item is termed as Gravy
@@dreamergirl9837 Thank you!
@@dreamergirl9837 no it isn't, Gravy is European
I've watched a few of your videos now and when I look at you I think: if Phoebe Waller Bridge were an English teacher.
Today we were supposed to watch this in English class but my classmates were being too loud so the teacher just let us go because he got upset at them, thanks guys
They're all looks so expensive in my country lol
From India, wonderful.
Looks deliciouse
Omg are you killing me?
mmmmm I so love English breakfast ❤️❤️❤️❤️ yummy 😍😍😍
One thing she said absolutely correct, "We take things from everywhere".
U forgot jellied eels they look terrible and i'd never eat them, but they are very English And also pie and mash but that stuff is soooo nice omg
The eel's are a bit of an aquired taste.Rollmops are so much better.
Jellied eels and pie and mash shops are more an east end of London thing, I've never seen jellies eels outside of the south east, there was one novelty pie and mash shop in Liverpool, but I believe it closed down relatively quickly and it did no trade
Cheese Sandwich with worcester sauce topping ?
Gross!
