Jamie Oliver Ministry of Food Recipe | Mince Beef and Onion Pie

Today i try Jamie Oliver ministry of food recipe book and cook a mince beef and onion pie

[@amber-or9rq]

Always season your food to your liking. If you can't have salt use salt substitute or Mrs. Dash. Seasonings will bring out flavor of food. Blessings to you both

[@independentpuppy7520]

Yes indeed. You need some seasonings in food. Otherwise it's bland.

[@OldFoodGuy]

Yes amber

[@PotatoPirate123]

He’s following the recipe here to the letter and it’s demonstrated that yet another book completely under seasons the food.

[@Food_video]

The ingredients are very fresh and the food looks really delicious!!!🙂

[@karencoleman9087]

When you do a pie you need a bottom one as well to help the top one from sinking

[@anthonylambert4523]

In Germany where I now live they just don't do pies (or pasties) so I have to make them myself.I only use minced beef and onion.No carrot or celery.The key is to make a bloody good gravy for the pie (spiced up with mustard, Worcester sauce,tomato puree,marmite) I reckon pies should always have a top and bottom crust as well.

[@OldFoodGuy]

Agree mate. You need a good gravy

[@denisebell8422]

Looks delish 😋 only thing I would have done is add Gravy granules to thicken it up

[@OldFoodGuy]

And seasoning

[@lauriep9067]

That's a sensational looking pie mate..Jamie would be proud 👍

[@OldFoodGuy]

Thanks Laurie

[@sarahkhan6979]

That looks really good and 😋 tasty with a bit of gravy and mash especially when we’re having to cut down with prices going up nothing like homemade food 🥘 I like your voice you sounds like your from Eastenders 💕

[@OldFoodGuy]

LOL Sarah Thank you

[@stormstorm4407]

I know you are following the recipe but I did see another recipe for this and they had reduced the the liquid by half. A litre is a lot with 1 stock cube and 2 tsp of flour.

[@OldFoodGuy]

Agree Storm to much liquid

[@fionaedge5332]

1 stock cube is 1 cup of stock, and if you used reduced salt stock cubes like oxo have you shouldn't have to skimp if you're trying to reduce sodium.

[@staceyguy891]

Great upload Keith

[@OldFoodGuy]

Thanks Stacey

[@shirleyburke1571]

Good effort Keith.. if I was making that..I would bang in oxo ..gravy granules and pepper to taste..don't like tasteless aneamic food. Keep up the good work.

Love the videos try using msg or aromatic seasonings as it as so much to flavour

[@OldFoodGuy]

Thanks mate

[@xARESEEx]

I'd of used some gravy granules first to thickened it up.

[@santhompson6738]

What is it with some cook books leave out the seasonings, think I would have took the mince back out and added some bistro 😆 thanks for trying some of these recipes though makes good viewing 😀 xx

I know San, i don't get it myself

Great video! Not every recipe is a good one and we know to steer clear of this one. Thanks for posting!

[@OldFoodGuy]

You are welcome Donna

[@tinapoole2540]

Hi guys you’re both lovely by the way, I reckon if you thickened up the pie mix with some gravy granules before putting the pastry on top you would have liked it more, it did look nice and I am no cook but you could put the celeb chef to shame with the gravy at least Xxxxc thanks for your content you give us a warm cozy feeling, I love anyone who says bab in conversation it feels so welcoming (brummy relatives) 👍💁🏻‍♀️all the love going to you and yours xx

Thank you so much tina

Me to aaron

[@jenniferlaverick2365]

I thought you were going to say it was delicious, what a shame, I know you followed the recipe but I always use oxo cubes in my mince, and add gravy granules at the end to thicken up, good video keith. Best wishes 😊😊

[@OldFoodGuy]

Thanks Jennifer

[@lisabeaver8894]

Hi Keith, when I make mince beef pie I use oxo cube and salt and pepper no wonder that was bland, plus a bit of gravy granuals will help thicken, Jamie Oliver is not all that I've tried his recipes before and not been impressed, look forward to you trying more of his recipes 👍

[@OldFoodGuy]

I agree lisa, Thank you

[@martinedingivan]

Looks alot better than Jamie's well done great job keith thanks for sharing 😁I would have put a bit of cornflour in it to thicken a bit of salt and pepper

[@OldFoodGuy]

Yes magic it needed seasoning

[@muzzerhutton6830]

Great vid mate did look great but as you said it's in the tasting

[@OldFoodGuy]

With out the taste mate it's nothing

[@muzzerhutton6830]

@@OldFoodGuy did look great though

[@themadcoachman]

Think when you added the gravry you maybe put too much water in ,or need a higher temperature to reduce it down more. What ever recipe says always add a little salt In cooking to bring the flavour out

[@OldFoodGuy]

Cheers mate

[@iansims2984]

Top tip don't use Jamie Olivers cook books he's an absolute tool 😉🤣🤣

[@davebirch1976]

Unless you've run out of toilet roll🤣🤣

[@jshaw4757]

Na he's alright...least he actually tried too get kids n adults alike understand what vegetables are n how too feed kids real food not crap they get it school lol...I remember an episode he went too Italy n 5 year old kids could name every fruit n vegetable you put in front off them...then he came back here n half the kids couldn't tell the difference between an aubergine and a car tire lol....

[@davebirch1976]

@@jshaw4757 I wonder how people in America would react to him if he tried it over there 🤣 At least most of our foods have natural flavouring. UK McDonalds fries have 3 ingredients potatoes vegetable oil and salt, in America they have those plus loads of flavourings, artificial colours and preservatives.

Always taste your recipe always taste your recipe and I’m surprised the bay leaves didn’t come out before you topped and baked it 🤷‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

[@OldFoodGuy]

Agree Brenda

[@PotatoPirate123]

The reason it was like soup is because two teaspoons of flour isn’t enough to thicken it! I wonder if that was a typo. I would have put two heaped tablespoons in there and cooked it off before adding the stock. No reason to add gravy granules as some have said. Also yet again nowhere near enough salt in those ingredients for that amount of meat. I understand that some people don’t like to add much salt but this book is supposed to encourage people to cook, and food that tastes like soil isn’t going to do that. It looks like you did a good job of it anyway, so not your fault!

[@OldFoodGuy]

Cheers mate and yes 100% correct

[@majiek1304]

Why did you stop doing school dinners?

[@deathbycocktail]

His photo of it in the book even looks like soup with pastry on top, no way was that going to work! I don't mind some of Jamie's stuff but this was just a rubbish casserole with a lid- it wants some of your dough balls in there to sop up the gravy at the very least 😁

[@OldFoodGuy]

Yes mate, i don't know how he thinks that recipe works

[@independentpuppy7520]

I don't like Jamie Oliver. He uses no seasoning, and is against sugar in soft drinks. Yet he smothers everything in oil. Everything is fine in moderation.

[@PotatoPirate123]

Yes he's completely at the mercy of his own healthy eating obsession. He even made butter chicken without butter. I have zero respect for the guy

I was given a Jamie Oliver Cookbook but am not impressed with it. Don't use it. To be honest, your pie looked better than his. I can't stand bland food and always add seasoning that we all like. That way food doesn't get wasted. Keep up the good work xx

100% agree Diana

[@PotatoPirate123]

Whilst often considered a chef, I don’t think Jamie ever made it to head chef status. I believe the highest he got was the sous chef at the Riverside before the BBC snapped him up for a series when he was probably still a teenager, and everyone started hyping him up. His ‘school dinners’ series angered some people for being patronising and dismissive and ever since then he seems to have become obsessed with healthy eating, using olive oil *all the time* and reducing all other fats and sugars in his recipes to sometimes absurd levels - for example his butter chicken was made with a completely straight face using zero butter. I wonder if he’s worried about being seen as a hypocrite for doing anything unhealthy so is led by that mindset when doing his recipes. Certainly he has a lot of fans, which explains why he’s by far the richest ‘chef’ with a wealth of hundreds of millions. Personally I don’t rate his recipes and would go out of my way to avoid them if I’m looking for something new to cook. I simply don’t think he’s very good, and in fact I think some of his recipes for dishes from other countries are downright insulting. It’s laughable to me that he has made millions upon millions selling quite underwhelming recipes to the masses but I guess he’s just got something about him that people like

[@OldFoodGuy]

Yes mate

[@66squeaky]

Good review OFG. I've never been a fan of Jeremy Oliver, I prefer the Hairy Bikers.

[@OldFoodGuy]

Yes the hairy Bikers are good

[@grahamlee2536]

Oh Dear, my grandad is rolling over in his grave looking at that pie. I can see his disapproving face as he spoons up that thin gravy and pours it back onto the plate. Onions are ok in pie, all other veg should be served on the side to avoid over cooking. Way to much water for one stock cube and come on Jamie, you have to brown off and drain the fat from the mince.

[@OldFoodGuy]

Well said mate

[@suehall2526]

Watery slop, just typical of a Jamie Oliver recipe . He is the buffoon that ruined our soft drinks by replacing sugar with artificial sweetener . When are we going to see some more from the school dinner book ?

[@OldFoodGuy]

This week Sue, and yes Jamie Oliver has a lot to answer for

[@brianwood4483]

Don’t waste your time with any more of his recipes. Just throw the book away!

[@happyfoody1864]

Don't get me started on Jamie. I absolutely cannot stand him 😣😤 His cooking is total crap. He has just been extremely lucky mainly through other people. Saying that, all his restaurants failed. He played a major part in ruining all the Soft drinks with harmful sweeteners. Yet he still continues to cook with huge amounts of oils, fats and sugars. Then recently he was trying to make life more difficult for struggling families, by taking away the money saving food deals. While he was marinating and deep frying pieces of fat and cooking £50 organic chickens. No wonder he is one of the most hated TV chefs. Grrrrrrr 😂

[@OldFoodGuy]

100% agree Happy Foody

[@shazzabbegg9934]

Not a fan of JO. He’s very pretentious. I’ve tried some of his recipes, such as spag ball. It was dreadful. I’ll stick to my own…. Way tastier and seasoned just right ❤️

[@A16AdamWalker]

Not surprised it turned out bad, I mean it's Jamie Oliver trying to do a recipe for a classically British dish... the same Jamie Oliver who repeatedly badmouths this nation, shows time and again how out of touch he is from the reality of working families, who constantly wants to interfere in our lives and who when doing his British food series spent the entire time talking about how things weren't actually British because "pastry, that came over with the Romans"... something he didn't replicate in the country he wishes he was from, Italy, as he never talked about Tomato's originating in S America or Pasta from China. Suffice to say my general loathing of Jamie Oliver may be so strong it's spreading across the UK like a psychic wave and making all his recipes taste bad by default lol.

[@OldFoodGuy]

100% agree mate

[@coolerkin]

Jammie Oliver is an awful Cook not even a chef.... Always brown your meat!!!

[@OldFoodGuy]

2 of jamie Oliver recipes now, and both say no browning of the mince, Jamie is so wrong
