As someone who cooks in a house of 1. Jamie's method is exactly what I do. Big batch but easy to modify and make different

[@SortedFood]

It’s a great method!

[@bakes82]

@@SortedFood you should do more recipes oriented this way, my partner doesnt eat a lot so usually 1 portion is enough for the two of us. Also instead of 30min per meal why not just give them 1.5hr total to make 3 diff meals but they need to plan to time up front to make the different meals so one could be 45, one 15, one 30.

I've never seen Spaff this comfortable in the kitchen. He should have gotten that 3rd badge

[@MechaEmperor7000]

Spaff was robbed. He was the only one who ended up with three dishes that looked like they were planned from the get go and not one of them just being the scraps from the other two. And he only fumbled the burrito because he's used to cooking for a family of 4; if he wasn't he likely wouldn't have been pressured to overfill them and thus the blowout.

I’ve been by far the most impressed with Jaime throughout these challenges, he cleans as he goes, is calm and collected, and it seems his flavors and bold and interesting.

[@RexZShadow]

Ya definitely most calm and planned out meals.

[@altejoh]

1:30 for me personally, Jamie's food is almost always the one I look at and go "that's the one I would try to make at home". Big portions, big flavors, simple and not trying to "look good for instagram", it often feels like something both enjoyable and achievable. That being said, I have fallen in love with Mike's chicken satay dish from the Singapore battle, and I love his musical skills and golden retriever personality ^.^

[@warribe]

Mike is great! But his cooking is too lean to me, id much prefer Spaffs big bold fatty dishes.. and Baz is more of a instagram cooker.

[@WondrousPurple]

Baz's and Jamie's faces as Mike explains the final challenge! 20:24-20:42 LOVE their surprised looks, and can't wait to see what's next!

Jamie was lowballed in those ratings! He did such a great job with all his dishes, I'd eat any of those, nicely done Jamie!

[@organicgrains]

Jamie does well with flavors. There was a reason why he was the normal in the kitchen when you were cooking in Japan. He's simply the most confident normal in the kitchen. It may at times be misplaced, but it's there.

[@tang3151]

i feel like the one with the most misplaced confidence is Barry tho HAHA whatever Jamie cooks, taste-wise it rarely disappoints.

That cliffhanger though

[@hannahdancy8529]

His wide-eyed look at the camera!!

[@JinHee20]

Out of all 3 normal’s cooking, I would choose Jamies. There’s something familiar and comforting about his dishes. Great dishes don’t always have to be to outlandish or very creative. They can be basic but really something you would want to eat regularly.

[@MechaEmperor7000]

Probably cuz up until just a month ago, he was the only one with children in his family. I suspect Mike will slowly do the same after two years (when his little one is old enough to eat normal food)

I just wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for all the amazing content you've produced over the years. It's truly amazing to see how far you've come, and your dedication to providing high-quality food content has never wavered. I was recently watching an old interview that Ben was in, and it struck me just how genuine you guys have always been. You've always been true to yourselves and your passion for food, and that authenticity is part of what makes your channel so special. Your insights and tips have been invaluable to me over the years, and I can't thank you enough for everything you've taught me about cooking and food. As someone who has just moved into their own place and struggles with mental illness, making food can be a real challenge, but your content has been a real source of inspiration for me. Thank you again for everything you do, and I can't wait to see what amazing content you have in store for us in the future!

Thank you for such a lovely comment 🫶

Jamie's cooking is the most relatable. Sometimes even 30 mins is too much, and honestly, I almost always make a leftovers soup at the end of the week

Jamie once again proving he's a KING. He whipped out three simple, tasty, filling, quick recipes like it was nothing.

Jamie's cooking doesn't give a fuck about trends, or Instagram, or impressions. It's all about what should taste good together and how the hell is he going to get there!! That's why he's our favorite 😁

I think it was because there wasn't anything that surprising or exciting, apart from the soup thing at the end.

[@eivind261093]

@@mikeymike1792 If we're being completely fair, though, I don't think Barry really did anything surprising or exciting either. At all. And like someone else has pointed out, Barry actually burnt stuff and still got the badge AND a higher score. Not trying to be negative or take this too seriously, but it's quite obvious that Barry has gotten a LOT of both challenges and badges for free. One example being how he got a teamwork badge after actively sabotaging the team and the teamwork.

[@toscirafanshaw9735]

I'm guessing (though I wish it had been said) that it was reheating the package rice. Ben actually says in the video not to do this, because in real life (i.e. if it's actually the next day), that's a big risk of food poisoning. Food waste is bad, but food poisoning is worse, and risking it would, imo, be enough to lose the badge. Safety first.

[@eivind261093]

@@toscirafanshaw9735 Well, if you properly store it (in the fridge as soon as you finish eating - don't let it sit at room temperature), reheating rice is perfectly fine. I suppose this might be different for packet rice; don't really use that kind of rice, so I wouldn't know. However, if this was the case, Ben should've said as much when he was giving Jamie his feedback.

[@taheera8849]

Love the rice to thicken soup trick, I've used it loads in soups that I blend, adds a lovely creaminess and bulk to the dish!

Such a great hack 👌

[@DkOmbres]

As I am not the one handing badges out, in my book, Jamie got all badges. He was calm, planned, shopped and cooked all meals. They looked great and it is something in line with how I would do it. Also, I cook for 4 people but cooking this way saves money and time.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

1:36 See, the thing with Jamie is that objectively speaking, there’ll be a healthy portion that will sort the rest of my meals. Also, he’s supremely entertaining and I’m not Spanish.

[@kingkarlito]

[@PokhrajRoy.]

@@kingkarlitoHow am I fat shaming?

[@goranpersson7726]

honestly he's the only one that gets portions the right size. like many a times i've seen the portion sizes of the other guys cooking and they just dont add up, like at most I want to have 1-2 portions per time i eat and I eat like 3 times that are actually meals (maybe add 2 more snack times) if I ate the portion sizes the other guys have I'd need to eat like 2-3 per meal unless i significantly up the amount when i have "snacks" turning them into more half-meals. like their portion sizes barely give me my caloric intake need per day to maintain my current weight which is like 55kg(60tops) considering im also at 180+cm tall that is quite underweight. sure some people should eat less (most people) but the portion sizes they usually showcase are way too little (as a sidenote just to maintain muscle mass I am unsure if they would give me enough protein especially when they do the whole "spread the meat across more meals" thing, yes there's a limit to how much protein you can actually retain but it's better to overshoot it a bit because i'd rather have a bit of excess in my diet than to lose muscle)

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

Honestly Jamie is the people's person because for many of us he cooks like us. Sometimes I can sit and think through what I want to cook. But other times I try to put 2 burritos worth of ingredients in 1 tortilla.

I would like to see a competition where the normals will try and follow specific dietary plans, different plan for each but same grocery bag and some time to study the different diet to see what in the bag they can use :) (From a person that has a medical condition requiring me to skip out on a lot of foods)

[@jellycatfish]

I don't understand why he didn't get it, for real. He also adapted his cooking with the ingredients he had left, meaning, he adjusted his plans on the fly. Isn't that what cooking with leftovers is all about?

[@ritchier3346]

Jamie is the cook that I relate to the most and it isn’t even close. He just goes for it and hopes the big flavors works

[@chillaxter13]

I personally think Jamie should have got the cooking badge... He kept clean, used good cheats, had minimal food waste, and used several techniques to blend flavors and textures.

I'd love to have Jamie around! He seems like a great friend, he's interesting and funny, has safe dad energy (and he isn't hard on the eyes, either 😂) As far as the cooking challenges go, Jamie often uses flavor and texture combinations that are easy for me to imagine enjoying, while other flavors, etc, I've never had and can't picture as well; so I often find myself wanting to eat Jamie's dishes the most!

[@GeorgiaMakitalo]

All three normals deserve applause! Well done!!! I got a lot of ideas from everyone and Jamie forgetting your basil happens to all of us. This also reminds me to always have a lemon, lime or vinegar on hand to really finish a dish.

[@CindellaD]

I'd love if you gave them the chance to have the store cupboard ingredients they had bought previously to use. It'd really show that when you build your store cupboard out you have more options. Like if you had a redo of the £24 budget but a "and here's what we've bought previously"

[@bakes82]

I think it would be more interesting if they did it while in America going to like a Walmart and Costco/Sams. But I agree most people already have a bunch of stuff like pasta, pasta mixes, rice(s), spices, frozen meats, canned veg etc on hand. But like for the tortillas, here they sell them in what 8-10 packs and you he only used 4, so you still have 4+ left over, also the red wine "cubes" not really a thing ive seen.

[@MissingmyBabbu]

Oh that'd be brilliant! It would also be a great show of ways to shop smarter, to get similar flavors you'd buy fresh tucked away in the storecupboard (citrus vs vinegar, for example). I'd also love a challenge or a showcase of how to preserve ingredients from grocery shops or a garden. Maybe give Ben some shorts about how each group of fresh foods (soft greens, harder greens, peppers and tomatoes, etc.) are best preserved, so if you get a good deal or a bountiful harvest, all the great fruit and veg you bring into the kitchen can get used up or preserved for later tasty meals.

[@adde9506]

They've done that a lot of times and what Ben thinks people on a tight budget have in their store cupboard is far more and far more expensive than what people actually buy lots of and then don't use all of. I'm glad they did it this way for once. All the previous times they've used ingredients that double or triple the price of the dish if you have to buy them all and then claim it only cost a dollar or two to make. It usually easily prices me out, and if it doesn't, the fact that food costs twice as much where I live, the expensive things they bought because of the store cupboard does. I'd much rather be told the dish costs 8 pounds and save 2 on it than be told it costs 2 and spend 8.

[@CindellaD]

@Add E I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. I don't want them to have full access to a store cupboard but specifically the store cupboard ingredients they bought last time. Eg. The leftover spices from Jamie's chilli. In buying those ingredients once and having them I think it'd be an interesting addition for them to say you have 24£... but also, you have these 4 store cupboard ingredients that you can choose to use or not. It adds a small amount of variety by letting their previous choices affect their new ones, but still limits them. And when building a store cupboard I feel like people generally start with one or two spices and have to try think of other ways to use them.

[@adde9506]

@@CindellaD Yeah, that could be cool. They'd have to keep those bottles aside though, so they could also run out based on the shopping challenges.

Jamie has made the same sort of cooking I do on a limited budget at home. To me, something that isn't your best work but is still really delicious is a realistic expectation for midweek home cooking. Jamie deserved the cooking badge. He showed real awareness of what his ingredients could do from both a flavor and technical perspective. Can I also say, of all of the guys, Jamie has shown the most real improvement. He really should be proud of himself considering where he was at, skill wise, only a few years ago.

[@joshp8535]

This is a fantastic series. I do have to say that I wish for some elaboration on why Jamie didn't get a cooking badge. All seemed in order to me. If anything, he barely planned the last day, so if he was going to lose one... Also, I know it would make this a lot harder to film, but actually keeping ingredients multiple days stored changes them, so I wouldn't mind if they actually had a little more time to re-heat things but it took place over 3 actual days. Jamie's sauce would have deepened in flavor, and it would have taken more nuance to reheat other things, like those roasted tomatoes.

[@kingkarlito]

certain things might deepen in flavor over 3 days, but more things would degrade in quality over that time. it's already kind of weird that they are just leaving dish #1 sitting out for an hour minimum before judging it.

[@joshp8535]

I never fully understood why the boys almost immediately rag on Jamie for being 'uncreative'. Personally, I don't care about creativity. I care about being able to eat it and having it be easy to make.

All 3 of the guys have done incredible in these eps. Theyve come so far

I buy 3 lb of ground/ mince beef which is cheaper. Chopped onions , garlic , bell peppers and celery cooked into beef. Then broke down into 3 bags to be used for shepherd pie, spaghetti and meatloaf.

Justice for Jamie! He shouldve gotten a cooking badge. Understand the first dish is simple, but he smashed it for mid week cooking

This is exactly how I cook! What we call "2nd day chilli" is an absolute faavve in our house!

My favorite Sunday morning tradition. Watch the Sorted fellas then cook and bake the rest of the day 😊.

It's definitely his character, Jamie is such a fun person who wouldn't want him to cook with or for you, there all nice guys but Jamie is just that bit more personable and funny

Jamie was robbed yet again! Him not winning at the end when he had the best plan and most realistic and achievable performance is bad enough, but him having all that and not getting the cooking badge was daylight robbery!

Jamie is definitely the mascot of Sorted. I love the whole team and crew for what they bring to it; but Jamie is just the man of the people. He seems like a guy you'd want to have around the grill at a BBQ.

10:27 The Asian way is get the 2kg jumbo packet of rice and call it a day. Take the amount you need in a separate container and plan accordingly.

Absolutely love this 🙌

I love this series! Looking forward to the finale
