Cooking With Jake #02 / Full English Breakfast

[@unknown-zb1eg]

Name the series "Cooking Wright"

[@FrozenMetal123]

'Cooking Done Wright'

[@mothercromby]

Jake, your cooking skills are tragic.

[@SomethingNick]

I'd suggest making a stir fry, since you need to practice your knife skills and the actual cooking time is super quick. Also watch youtube videos of how to make things since you'll have a better idea of how they should look/how to prepare etc

[@paulp8618]

I hope those sausages didn’t make you ill 😣

[@djneils100]

As a cook you make an excellent software developer

[@JustSayin24]

Some tips from a couple years of learning to cook: - If you like the taste and texture of butter, use that instead of oil for fried foods like bacon and eggs. - Low heat when cooking eggs to avoid the weird burnt crispy edges which I personally don't like. - Learn to crack your eggs by hitting them on a surface instead of using your knife to avoid splitting the yolk before it's even touched the pan. This is a matter of practice and getting a feel for the pressure needed. - Cover your eggs with the lad your pan came with. The trapped steam will cook the yolk and you won't have to flip it over - SEASON! A quick twist of sea salt and ground pepper after you've placed your eggs on toast will do wonders - As for beans, cooking them in the pan allows for you to do a lot more than simply microwaving, so props for that. Definitely season them with S/P to taste, but try to experiment! If you like cheese, add some cheddar to the pot during the last minute-or-so before serving. Cooking, after all, isn't a simple rote task of following BBC Good Food recipes. You can do whatever the hell you want, and if it tastes good, then you've done something unique to your taste. - When cooking meat, especially chicken, it's best to go for low-medium heat to avoid burning the outside before cooking the inside. Grab a food thermometer and learn to use it. It'll come in handy for cooking steaks, which is what I'd recommend you cook in the next episode (with mash, of course :P) -

[@amenicHD]

Thanks, I was wondering what he was doing wrong, because I don't know much about cooking.

[@eileenw668]

I'm in love with this series

[@arina8470]

"how black do i want the tomatoes" is truly an iconic line lmao i am so so glad am not the only one struggling with the whole cooking thing

[@r4h4al]

I would have sliced the tomato but what do I know.

[@jenniferc.3381]

never throw boiling oil down the sink 😂

[@journaldude7092]

Correct. Let the oil/grease cool. Wipe it up with a paper towel. Toss the paper in the rubbish bin. Oil and/or grease will eventually clog up your plumbing. Not a good thing! #cookingtip

[@stefanomarani3645]

Jake, I love you so much, but your cooking is... DEADLY. AHAHAHA keep on doing this stuff, it's so funny to watch! Also, I'd like you to make an homemade version of your favorite McDonald's burger. Should be interesting lol

[@CJT80]

Deadly cooking with Jake!

[@ginhill1349]

I guess Jake doesn't know the concept of seasoning.

[@heviutza]

hilarious

[@pounro]

You barely need to season a full English though

[@caobadraconis5560]

He didn't even use salt though

[@journaldude7092]

There's a ton of salt in the bacon and sausage. : )

[@caobadraconis5560]

There is none in the eggs for instance, and even if there is in the meat, it still requires seasoning.

[@woopsh123]

Hahahaha omg I am living for these cooking videos. You are so charming and naturally just hilarious

[@Munchkin2000]

There's a career for Jake in comedy after his efforts in this video!

[@debmandal7420]

Chicken Fajitas!!!! Buy the kit, peppers, onion and chicken. Pretty straight forward as there are instructions on the box. You shouldn't get that wrong.

[@benrs99]

why not try making a cake of some description, that can't be too difficult, right?? fab video by the way ;)

[@christopherdonaghue2461]

I've been waiting for you to realize how good a "Cooking with Jake" series would be ever since I first saw your first hilarious, yet incredibly familiar, attempt at cooking upon moving to London. This was so fun to watch.

[@telanos2492]

I feel like this was much less frustrating to watch than the first video - that is a step forwards! +1 to the other comments about not pouring oil down the sink. That is how kitchen sinks get blocked. If you've been doing that previously..... I might suggest pre-emptively getting drain cleaner and clearing out the kitchen pipes.

[@TheNinestrokes]

Jake, this is my new favourite segment of yours. Please continue this series!

[@Lucilou101]

A tip for the spaghetti bolognese - instead of trying to make it completlely from scratch, to start with try buying a jar of bolognese sauce like Ragu, mince, onion, spaghetti and cheese. Then all you need to do is fry the onion and mince, then add the sauce - add to cooked pasta and grate on cheese! Once you're a bit more confident you can start making bolognese sauce from scratch, and make it in a really large batch. Then freeze portions of it and it'll just need to be microwaved for a quick meal in the future :)

[@jodinha4225]

I absolutely love this series so far! Hilarious and it makes me feel better about my skills! 😂

[@NaumRusomarov]

Really enjoying these videos

[@khamzahabibullah4378]

Try making a stir fry. Its easy to make and you may even learn new cooking skills

[@ivanlovric5805]

I never thought someone could fuck up something so simple like English breakfast

[@niveyoga3242]

Ivan Lovric Oh boy you never saw me cook xD

[@freddealy7694]

Keep trying you will get there. great video.

[@lffgar1]

What an improvement, you did a great job,. A few suggestions: Invest in some tongs, check out a thrift store next time you pass by. Put your cooked sausages and bacon on a plate with some paper towel to absorb grease in a heated oven 75 C while cooking the eggs Cut a thin slice off the top and bottom of the tomato, then cut it in half before frying, put in the pan half way through cooking sausage Your sausage was flat give a soft roll on the counter to make round before putting in pan The sausage didn't look burnt but well caramelized Turn the heat down to cook your eggs, unless you like them crispy and cook them closer so they flow together Put your beans on the plate and the eggs on top for nicer appearance No mushrooms? If you are going to make pizza the easiest crust is to use pita bread, also if you sprinkle your chopped onions with some vinegar (seasoned rice is my favourite) and let them sit while you get your other ingredients ready, it will get rid of the bitterness. I usually have some old newspaper or used paper towel to dump my hot oil onto otherwise the drain will plug.

[@SpookyCouch]

good progress, honestly!

[@ellierose3630]

I just stumbled across your videos! This is funny to watch :)

[@GurakuqUkaj]

You are great Jake! I'm following you more than 4 years :)

[@mom4144]

I love your cooking videos! You should do it weekly

[@yuhankao3498]

You should cut a little bit of the sausages open so that the middle part can get the heat as the outside (to avoid burning the outside part without knowing whether the inside is being cooked enough

[@MrSammotube]

Yep, you can grill the sausages and bacon to avoid the stuff coming out - also more room for the other stuff.

[@AdityaDangi]

Better than before Jake. Keep it up.

[@akkkk914]

I just want to cook you a meal one day! Haha the way you cook gives me anxiety! 😂 love you though 💕

[@yannychiou282]

i love cooking write videos i could watch them for the whole day it inspires my cooking hobby xD

[@GarrettRose]

Are British baked beans ketchup based? In the us I feel like it’s more bbq sauce based

[@apntv]

We are loving the learning to cook videos Jake :-)

[@drwatsonca6945]

This is what I do for the sausage and that is to put it in the microwave till cooked and than pan fry them to add colour.

[@MrP4RR0TT]

This should be taken back to year 8 DT just for fun. Start with fruit salad, then croque moissure (what they call cheese on toast to make you feel better), then maybe an omelette or cakes/muffins. Pancakes would have been good for pancake day, although a little late now. Nachos are pretty much un-ruinable.

[@nathalyt1066]

haha omg, finally I watch a video of somebody that looks like me when cooking. We'll improve!

[@user-km4yx6dq5p]

Oh boy there are so many things wrong with this 😂😭 1) pouring hot oil down the sink will clog it because the oil sets when it gets cold. 2) the sausages probably werent 100% cooked so touching the other ingredients might be a possible cross contamination. 3) grilling the tomatoes might've been better for texture wise and grill marks make it look better

[@Nashy119]

Got my popcorn ready this time.

[@hecateives2240]

Thanks for making this video x

[@zakabby9113]

For the name alone, bake a cake with Jake, you should make a cake.

[@Sdotv]

Jake the Cambridge Cook Sci

[@phoesmi]

yess i'm so ready for another one

[@TheRetsekShow2236]

This is my favourite series as it foreshadows how bad my life is going to be post-uni, I hope to go to Oxford which is like Cambridge, catered. And my cooking skills are non-existant..

[@cjay2]

Then plainly it's time to start learning some cooking skills now. You can find videos on YT on every possible dish you could possibly want. And if you're living at home, and your mom cooks, then it's time for mom-son cooking lessons. If not, then learn it yourself with YT vids.

[@TheRetsekShow2236]

cjay2 Ahhh, you're probs right, I could do that... Or I could continue to neglect learning real life skills like how to drive, cook and talk to girls and instead focus on maths and physics all day... 🤔🤔 Tough decision

[@cjay2]

Even if maths and physics are your passion, you still deserve to know how to cook well for yourself and how to eat healthily. As well as how to drive and talk to girls. Life is soooo busy when you're young. It chills out a bit after your 20's, especially if you already know how to do the real-life skills well. The maths and physics will always be there.

[@thebrofros]

Fish and chips

[@Oscar-if6lq]

Genuinely he might burn his flat down. Deep frying with no cooking skills might not be advisable haha

[@Gadgetmaster101]

Don't pour the grease down the sink, it will build up and eventually clog.

[@worldofwoodrow3192]

a good ol' Sunday roast?

[@scumgang8780]

Jake I watch these videos with my mouth open... very entertaining but how can anyone be this bad at cooking?! LOL Anyway for your next show, I suggest you try cooking something easy (obviously) like a chilli or a curry?

[@benka437]

Perhaps you should try something easy... like a lasagne.

[@r4h4al]

No Lasagne is difficult. Cook a Pot noodle they're easy to cook :)

[@JackMorleyy]

if he struggled to make bolognese then a lasagne would be a disaster

[@Syedkzz]

now ur just playing with him lol

[@iamjoris]

The sauages look like they are pre-cooked (they are very pale). Fresh sausages take a bit longer to cook (10-15 minutes; use a lower heat), but they taste a looooot better.

[@JustB3be]

Pizza is a great idea, would be fun to watch!

[@AndyPonsG]

Damn Jake!! What an improvement! It looks nice and it just took you 20 min hahaha keep going!! :P

[@markos1491]

You should take it easy and try Sheppard's pie!

[@kyleguerrero6106]

Jake life hack for you. You can make an omelet in a plastic ziplock (Sand which) bag. Steps.... 1. Crack 2 - 3 eggs and whisk (stir) in measuring cup. 2. Fill pot with water and bring it to a boil. 3. Chop everything going into the omelet (Mushrooms, tomato, black olives, Bacon etc.) 4. Pour EVERYTHING into the ziplock (Sand which) bag. 5. Hold the bag in the water and let the egg get firm. 6. Plate the omelet. Want cheese?? (For whoever is reading this......Cause Jake doesn't like cheese. (OPTIONAL) Heat up a small pan, and place omelet in pan. sprinkle shredded cheese onto omelet and cover Small pan. Wait until the cheese is melted. Plate the Omelet. DONE!

[@jason10095]

This is oddly soothing for some reason :)

[@theflapjackking]

Some flapjacks! Loving this series.

[@AP-jg1sb]

you should have grilled/roasted the sausages and the tomatoes for 20-30 min in your oven (you can finish them on pan to add a bit of taste if you want, but quickly ), fried the bacon and eggs just like you did ( but don't put too much oil), ( beans were OK). Key is : know the cooking times for each of your ingredients, and how to cook them best, and also have correct instruments to turn and handle the food ( like cooking PLIERS ...). Good luck !

[@Rachel_Tensions]

i love these videos

[@agnes6251]

Haha I love this!! A realistic look into the life of a young adult 😂👌 Keep up the good work, you'll get there eventually. Pizza is a good way to start off and so is lasange.

[@rainyrosesrin]

Hi Jake, may I suggest you to check out another KZbinr called "Sortedfood".. They have loads of simple and easy recipe for beginners and most of them are pretty cheap. Maybe it could help you :)

[@shailiefonseka5059]

YES! Check out SORTEDfood!

[@victoriapownall4871]

I feel like every student ought to watch this sort of relatable content

[@263Leo]

I love watching this. I’m wondering if your cooking skills have improved. You mentioned pizza would be next. That would be a fun video to watch. Is a new cooking vlog coming?

[@pounro]

Were those sausages cooked in the middle? Others have suggested this too but you should make a stir fry

[@Rachel_Tensions]

next time, make a stir fry!!

[@sauhardhakulshrestha]

U can make garlic bread, or cheese sandwich... it would be easy for u as a beginner

[@BrysonCY]

Honestly, I usually don't put oil if its sausage or bacon because they have fat and it turns into oil when heated

[@fardin987]

mash potatoes with beans ---- pasta ---- rice with chicken curry

[@chrisg9533]

Awww bless... I just wanna cuddle you and spend the next couple of years training you how to butter toast 😋x

[@maximgeorgiou3174]

Make fish and chips, it’s English so you have to be able to Cook it 😂👍🏽

[@willmelbourne]

No offence to Jake, but he should probably stay away from the deep frier for now...

[@ALventureniAngkol]

You must "Cook Eat Wright" next time Jake lol 😂

[@zhicw]

Let's see some baking. What about scones?

[@r4h4al]

Hey well done. That was good...

[@uzli488]

you havent good at cooking yet but why do i keep watching this video haha this it lit

[@user-rr3eo2zj6d]

You could try adding some seasoning hahah. Salt and pepper at the very least

[@aryaa3998]

You're so funny. I suggest making roast dinner. Roast chicken with gravy, roast potato and yorkshire pudding.

[@jquint321]

Ahh you silly ole dear chap!

[@richardmyers552]

Did Cambridge not offer an adult 101 course?

[@saromagic1052]

Sausages: never thought dark color suits us so well!!

[@kgd9725]

I suggested this on Twitter 😊

[@emadshk]

try shakshuka next time, it's really easy and delicious

[@joshuathompson7333]

You should put oil in the middle of the pan

[@bannedinchina]

“I’ve had frozen sausages before, never fresh ones”. Are you an alien?

[@franpolyphemus4496]

I know this is four years late lol but you can cook the sausages and bacon in some water until all the water boils off and the oil renders

[@journaldude7092]

You're making progress. Like everything else, "practice makes perfect". And, frankly, "perfect" in the world of cooking is really not necessary. As @SomethingNick (Nicholas) mentioned below, a stir-fry might be a good thing to try next. Some chicken or beef and an assortment of veggies (along with some steamed rice) makes for a great meal. Bon Appetit!

[@penny1662]

Do "Cooking with jake in quarantine" :D

[@user-xc1rc8ue9s]

You are not allowed to go out u did shopping urself or ordered Jake?

[@9000fail]

Isn't chicken tikka popular in the uk? You should make that

[@kryskestrel]

While this one didn’t turn out quite right, I have faith that you will improve! Good luck, and try making some french toast or an omelette to cook more using some eggs!

[@alexs6498]

haha I was just thinking about pizza as suggestion for next time right before u said it

[@indiabliss]

Just makes it look so much more difficult than it is !

[@Oscar-if6lq]

Were you catered in all years of Cambridge? If so, it shows :P

[@uzli488]

i would literally fly to your flat and help you with cooking oh my gosh

[@neopadro]

THanks for the tutorials. haha, this gave me a good laugh, cookings like coding I guess. haha! Take care friend.

[@basicbase749]

Where’s the salt? How do you eat without salt

[@silly.rasika]

Honestly Jake, you're doing better than me - I would have burnt all of the food, even the eggs and the toast (yay me)

[@Mr__Chicken]

You should try French Toast or pancakes!

[@Farrrdoos]

the level this is going I recommend you start from the basics and make cereal

[@entername6055]

This should be the end of cooking with Jake. Maybe make Claudio do it for you. Lol

[@caobadraconis5560]

First thought when he started: is he going to remember using salt at all? Answer: no, no he isn't
