Spanish Omelette Recipe ¦ Marco Pierre White

by Chef and Knife

[@mattypayne66]

*grabs frying onion out of bubbling hot oil with his fingers and puts in his mouth* "It's very hot"

[@frankiestoolshed1978]

Thanks for commenting this, I was about to and you saved me the time 💙

[@zacwallace84]

I swear this man's fingers are made of asbestos

[@ChaseMcCain81]

Lol, yeah

[@7thson555]

Lmao

[@anneominous7172]

"Fingers are for burning."

[@physicalzeppelin2326]

I’ve never seen this side of Marco where he’s unsure and funny, I love it

[@DJ-jy9bh]

Pratfall effect,

[@vmurt]

Yes it's true -- he's really endearing in this. It's rare to see him without that persona he puts on.

[@NeZarStyleOMG]

Thats the spaniard effect.

[@user-ng9gd4vl9s]

I think he's been unsure a lot in his career.....

[@jkasaunder228]

99% of people in any sort of management are unsure... You just have to put on a brave face and own it though.

[@eddy6672]

5:08 “Marco, it might be too soon”.

[@LinXGUA]

Man, I miss the old comment at 5:04, paraphasing: "should we turn the preciousss? No! not yet! it's too soon, we must wait. But what if ... No! But now, now it's the time. What's this? the precious is ruined!" One of the best things I have read on youtube.

[@Shteve84]

I came back to this video just to hear that line!

[@Username-dk2gs]

6:24 When he reveals the other side and lets out a disappointed sigh Then covers it with another plate to hide his embarrassment

[@tohnic441]

First time seeing Marco this stressed

[@alexbirzu6483]

Sometimes I just come and watch this video because I enjoy it.

[@-ThePharaoh-]

Me too

[@sonofagunder]

It’s your choice.

[@theweirick]

Same.

[@CasualFace]

He didn't make you enjoy it, you chose to enjoy it. It was your choice to enjoy it.

[@alexbirzu6483]

@@CasualFace I believe he did. If you know who this guy is you would realize that he is doing this just so he could show people that they shouldn't be afraid to cook and make mistakes. I mean the youngest chef to win 3 stars, thing that requires years of work and incredibile dedication makes one mistake after another and uses store bought ingredientes... Let's be honest A funny thing is I made this today :)

[@trueman9299]

Love the fact he released a video where he made a mistake leaving it a bit too long. Gives us home cooks confidence that it doesn't have be perfect.

'there is not recipe, it is just "let's have a guess". Sometimes you get is right, sometimes, you get it wrong'

a little piece of him died when he saw it burnt

[@Braulios_Penesecou]

A BIT TOO LONG?? ITS BURNED!! TOTALLY RUINED. YOU WONT FIND A TORTILLA LIKE THAT IN ALL SPAIN

White wine crazy dude brought me here

[@oliverhart2537]

yeah same.....

[@Zinxjinxy]

Wine box papi?

[@torkelsvenson6411]

Same, I was just curious how he was going to incorporate the Knorr stock cubes for this recipe. I was rather disappointed because he didn't use stock cubes like Adam said.

[@Agodders]

@@torkelsvenson6411 it went into the egg instead of salt, when he's talking about seasoning the egg not the potato he'd just added knorr into the egg

[@torkelsvenson6411]

@@Agodders Yeah but it was Aromat, not stock cubes. Which makes more sense, but still, that wasn't what I was promised

[@freezegopher7054]

he reminds me of a medieval chef who would cook for his King in the morning and then go slaughter his enemies in the afternoon...

[@WalyB01]

Using stockcubes.

[@KIJIKLIPS]

@John Matrix I am not even aware of any substantial medieval cook

[@frisolustig6349]

As the old legandary comments were deleted, let's start a new list with legandary quotes/fragments from this epic scene: 0:12: it is not as simple as it looks, but it is simple 0:21: there is not recipe, it is just "let's have a guess". Sometimes you get is right, sometimes, you get it wrong 2:04: tasting a raw egg "quite nice" 2:37: putting a finger in the searing hot fat and pretending that this is normal 2:52: tasting a piece of potato straight from the oil "pretty hot" 3:32: it has been a long time since I have made a tortilla, I may have to add another egg.....maybe not. Etc. This man is legandary and should be the norm for chefs on tele. :)

[@jimmybaldwin737]

Friso Lustig looool. Brilliant for re putting the comment. Ha thanks

[@aaronarshad3687]

Thank you! As the great man says "if we're really honest" reading his quotes on a comment list like this is far more hilarious than hearing it on the video

[@Flipmode1900]

Stfu like beg

[@Ryodog]

@Andres Porras He's not wrong. Marco is legendary in the culinary world

[@lycheesack]

he is using his intuition to cook and this is perfect

[@bretr7327]

Everything about this man tells the tale of someone that has lived one hell of a life.

[@Kiralucy]

Marco's split personality came out in this video lol

[@elvisrocero6729]

Eating straight from the boiling oil. Him: Pretty hot 🤔

[@quillion0877]

2:52 for people who are looking for it Then 3:04 for the second bite

[@mr.balawis9948]

I like Chef Marco because he has two modes: 1. The ultra perfectionist chef 2. Laid back dont give a damn how it turns out chef Its nice to see the human side of great "god like" people. 😃

[@corbeau-_-]

the professional vs the home cook. A chef has stress, a home cook has fun. Should be like that imo at least...

[@Braulios_Penesecou]

the tortilla is burned!!! i wont even feed my dog with that!!

[@longhornglfr1069]

This is why you don't film a cooking show at 3am after a night of drinking. Still love this video though. It helps me relax.

[@7thson555]

Imagine his sous chef quoting him “there’s no recipe; let’s just have a guess” when Marco loses his shit on him in the kitchen

[@benasmockus6988]

1:23 subtitles: [Applause] Even oil is clapping for Marco.

[@Bekindtopeople]

🤣🤣

[@lostuser1094]

05:04 spoilers for Fight Club

[@Artkruz812b]

Whenever I get depressed, I can always rely on this video to pick me up! MPW looks like a homeless addict here, and the way he just pops the hot potatoes into his mouth- straight from the hot oil- just makes me laugh; he quietly utters 'hot' but his expression stays the same. What a champ!

[@nathanielleack4842]

Mans mouth and fingers are lined with asbestos. decades of being in the kitchen I bet just heat immune. Absolute ledge

[@m.mickael8664]

Lol...

[@greeenestbasterd6896]

Your comment had me roaring with laughter.😂😂😂

[@pissedoffdude1]

Glad he was so kind enough to do this video while so hungover

[@pan.syrinx]

Came to watch him make the omelette. Stayed because its my choice.

[@newera478]

This is one of those dishes that sounds easy but it's rather difficult to perfectly execute. But when you do get that perfect tortilla you feel like a champion.

[@Braulios_Penesecou]

its not that hard. takes times? yes but the burned egg has no justification

[@freakishfunk4605]

Thank you! Wonderful guidance and lovely attitude!

[@JohnSmith-ij6ms]

marco, it might be too soon

[@rogerpeixsoler8178]

Pero que MONSTRUOSIDAD es esta?! Mira que he visto videos de tortillas de patatas por internet, y algunos no me dejan dormir por la noche, pero esto es otro nivel. Esta tortilla parece sacada de lo más profundo del averno, donde ha sido cocida durante siglos. Te meten una tortilla así en un restaurante y se lía una que hay que llamar a la Guardia Civil. Como se nota que un plato así hay que practicarlo, y mucho. Ni chefs profesionales ni ostias, las mejores tortillas, las que lleva haciendo 40 años mi madre y 70 mi abuela.

[@rogerpeixsoler8178]

Ah, por cierto, detallazo final el de no enseñar como está por dentro y cortar el video rápidamente. Seguro que cuando la partió por la mitad salía humo negro de dentro.

[@mcfcDJ51]

He’s actually human. Wow

[@lisasweeney9676]

The only person I know who turns out consistently excellent Spanish omelettes is a Spanish man. My uncle in law.

[@1066Kitchen]

He left it to long but it was his choice 😂

[@winkipinki007]

Love this recipe 👍

[@mariash5979]

To be honest, at least he turned the omelette with a plate and he didn't finish it in the oven 🙄. A few mistakes, olive oil should be used, it's burnt and we don't put any flavor powder. But not too bad

[@hugo46]

Not too bad? My god, that’s a thousand miles away from being something decent in Spain. It’s like concrete… the tortilla has to be in the pan for seconds before you flip it… has to be runny and juicy

[@mikeshea2456]

Seeing Marco act like…a human being. It’s both refreshing. And terrifying.

[@jangeertbruggink7040]

Lovely and doable for a home cook.

[@tyreecekenyon1175]

[@fuzzmylife]

Marco before flipping: "I hope it's not burnt. God, I'd die!" Marco after flipping: "I left it a bit too long, but you don't present that side because you flip it again and baddabing" Marco at the end: "you have to leave it a bit longer before flipping, otherwise it's not cooked enough" I've watched these cooking videos so many times, always calmes me down.

[@tictoc5443]

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

The ratio for making a Spanish omelette: 1 part onions 2 part potatoes 3 part eggs

[@JavierGarcia-yp9pg]

Las patatas no se fríen con fuego fuerte, se confitan a fuego suave. Las patatas tienen que quedar blandas, que se rompan, no duras y tostadas, para que puedan empaparse del huevo y la tortilla quede jugosa. Luego al cuajar no debe dejarse tanto tiempo al fuego hasta quemar el huevo. La tortilla es amarilla, no marrón.
