I’m not feeling great – just a common cold – but I felt like doing a bit of batch cooking – to make a vegetarian pasta sauce, but one …
New subscriber! Hope u feeling better my dear binge watching your vids,can't stop thinking about the apple pie you made!
Tip for those that don't like soya mince: try cauliflower! A quick blitz in the food processor will make a really good mince substitute texturally.
Get well soon. I inherited the same lasagne dish that you have from my parents.
Nice to have Merton host this one
Thanks for making this video even though you're unwell, Mike. It looks delicious and extremely nutritious too. Definitely one to try before too long. Get well soon.
Ah you sound so poorly Shrimp 🙁 hope you’re feeling better today ❤️
Unwell Shrimp should do blockbuster movie trailer voiceovers.
I'm late to this because of being in hospital on an IV drip. You sound rather ill, I do hope that you are feeling better now
Get some nutritional yeast and make vegan cheese sauce …. easy and healthier
My Italian family does make a baked pasta dish with short pasta called penne al forno. It's similar to what you made with layers of tomato sauce, penne, and bechamel. In our version we cook the pasta first. I've never tried adding layers of veg but that seems like it would be a great addition!
I hope you feel better soon!! It sounded like talking was really uncomfortable.
Sounds like I'm getting a cookery lesson from Mike Reid lol
Peace
That looks delicious 😋
Looks yum! When making vegan/ vegetarian recipes with mushrooms there is a technique I use to give them a bit more bite. Slice/cut/dice however, marinate or toss through oil, soy sauce and marmite (and other sauces or stocks as desired) cook in a large fry pan weighed down with a heavy bottom pot. This pushes the water out and caramelises the mushrooms. I recommend the addition of mushroom seasoning for more umami flavour.
Gidday Atomic Shrimp.
I love your recipe, very nice indeed.
I must admit I am impressed.
My maternal grandmother passed down the recipe for white sauce with nutmeg to my generation. It goes really well with salty meals like corned beef. As an Aussie, so few people know about this delicious combination.
I still use nutmeg in my bechamel sauce recipe to this day.
I am very proud that British people still remember this addition. I have British heritage.
I also LOVE Yorkshire pudding, but, once again, few people today actually remember it.
Almost sounds like Batman 🦇 lol
Looks very good. Reminds a bit of a veggie italianesque pasta dish we make for dinner now and then, let's call it "qualcosa al forno".
Man. I need to put more effort in to reach low effort
Honestly that vegetarian bolognese-esque sauce would be lovely in a taco or burrito too
Food looked great, hope you feel better soon
Your mirepoix is most similar to the trinity used in New Orleans cooking. Onion, celery, and peppers instead of carrots.
I hope you feel better soon!
Hope youre feeling better Shrimp!
Any tips for curing a cold? You should do a video all about your best remedies and tips!
Thanks for sharing this, this has given me ideas to make my life much easier, I'd love to see more vegan low effort budget batch cooking
I hope you feel better soon! Don't work yourself up too much.
Hope you feel better soon mr shrimp
Auditioning for the role of English crime lord — Atomic Shrimp.
Feel better soon, Mike.
Just wanted to say a big thankyou for all your content.
I've been watching since mid Secondary school all the way to now 23 about to move out out.
All your videos from cooking, outdoor education and various self made challenges have provided all sorts of little lessons I notice I use in day to day life. I really appreciate it
I didn't have a father figure growing up and these videos just give that warmth and homely feeling while always having something to learn. Really gives me old scouting vibes!
Appreciate the work you do and look forward to future videos! (I'd love to see those day army ration pack / home made ration pack for a big day out walk videos make a come back!)
I hope you'll get better soon!
Get well soon! Love the idea, thank you!
Wanted atomic say "Shut up you slag" with his ruff Eastenders voice 😀
Get well soon Bubonic Shrimp.
"low effort" has he grates a potato.
The interesting thing to me about this video is how modern cameras can actually pick and let you see real steam coming off of food. I remember learning a long time ago that the fast food commercials in the 70s or 80s would use smoke (from even something like a lit cigarette) sitting behind the burger to simulate steam because those analog film cameras couldn't see steam. I'm sure you raspy voice isn't from excessive smoke inhalation but I thought it was worth mentioning because of your high quality of video and also content. Cheers mate.
Awwwww Eva getting her cheese tax topped the whole video 😊
Get well soon! Great video as always
Hi Mr Shrimp. A little tip for peeling garlic… I always find it a bit fiddly. Place the cloves in a jar with the lid on and shake for 30 seconds. The shell will just fall away. Saves your hands smelling of garlic for hours afterwards too.
I like putting a mix of nutmeg and Mace in my cheese sauce and it rocks…. Just be careful of the mace though a small pinch goes a long way too much and it ruins the whole thing lol.
I love the spinach combined with cheese sauce layer on top…….I might pinch that part of the recipe!
This is definitely "sexy husky voice" Shrimp territory….
get well soon!
Great video and really tasty cheap meals. What about 1 month batch cool challenge where in 1 day you make all meals. Tell us what. How. How many serving..how long it took and how much as think batch cooking can help reduce grocery bills especially if similar ingredients you can buy in bulk.
Cold ridden shrimp sounds a bit like Batman shrimp! Great video as always 🙂
As a vegan I take my hat off to you for this recipe! ….needs chilli though! If you've got a cold I'm talking Ghost Pepper Carolina Reaper levels of Capsaicin 🌶 !!! It cures a colds!!!
It's called LASAGA, get it right…
Hope you feel better soon, Mike
Yummy! English muffin pizzas are one of my favorites!
I’m thinking this NOT low effort. That’s a lot of chopping!!! Especially when you don’t feel good. It looked really amazing tho and it will be very handy to have the extra in the freezer. Feel better soon! ❤️
Looks delicious! Get well soon!
Voice sounds more like Covid than a cold…
What? That's a Zucchini!
I really enjoy these videos Mr shrimp hope you feel better soon
