Norwegians eat fish for breakfast.. My favorite is macrel in tomato sauce.. We put that on a open faced sandwich.. It's brilliant.. It doesn't smell bad but it doesn't look very good.. Actually when I learned to eat it as a kid in the 80s it was commonly known as a planecrash 😂
We also eat fish on toast, bread or buns too in Germany. 🤤 Those who like fish could eat them for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, doesn't matter😊. Same goes for my Grandparents ( or others) in the Netherlands.
Sprouts are always better grilled or fried instead of boiled. The best way I do them is fried in a pan with oil and butter along with a little drop of honey.
I live in the Scottish Highlands and I am fortunate enough to have access to fresh fish straight from the fishermen's boats at our local pier. I would have to say the kippers Mike had bear no resemblance to the real thing. I realise it's easy for me to say this, but whatever was in that packet was not a kipper as I know it! The real thing is completely different!
How would you describe a "proper kipper" I love fish but I've only tried super market kippers (once!) as it didn't smell great. Bones don't bother me, I can pick them out but the smell was just so strong!
You are clearly not familiar with kippers! If you were worried about the smell permeating the house you should used the option to 'boil in the bag'. The little bones do you no harm. By no means the best of kippers but ideal for those that don't want to tackle a 'real' one.
@@jaynadiah5498 How is he 'doing it wrong' ? As long as things are cooked safely and you don't get sick then there is no right or wrong way of cooking for yourself. He cooks food the way he likes it and there is nothing wrong with that.

Can totally understand regards to the aligners. Had to have them for 13 months...used to give me headaches everyday and you could feel your teeth move when you put them back in.
Kippers are one of life’s pleasures..... I like the packaged kippers like you had, but if ever walk past a kipper smoke house somewhere on the coast - buy a kipper. They will knock your socks off. Perfect..... did Grace like the Gnocci?
I started having kippers for breakfast recently, boil them in the bag not microwave, I know it’s takes longer but smells less , well fishy lol , and I have mine with scrambled egg
If you've ever watched his video's, you should probably have realized that's a little too advanced for his cooking skills. Also he'd have had to plan ahead & got essentials cornflower.
You should try the “ gestational diabetes “ diet.. Just been diagnosed with it myself at 34 weeks pregnant 🙃 Basically low carb, low sugar.. high fat and lots of protein. For instance if I want an apple I have to eat a fatty food alongside it like cheese. Sweet potato fries with cheese and full fat mayo.. Very frustrating 😅
Wheres is basil's box gone??? Also I always look forward to the dinner portions of your vids as it gives me ideas to make for the other half for more variety, thanks!!!
I'm with Grace, keep that fish away from me.... edit: I suggested putting mushrooms into the pesto right as you put mushrooms in. I also add spinach! If I want more meat I add chicken or chorizo.
Kenji Lopez started doing this during the pandemic and he's got it down quite quickly. Mike's been doing this for a decade now. I think if he wanted to make a change, he would have.
🙄 FFS.... have you never seen a kipper before? ... They do have bones in they cannot be boned they are meant to be eaten. Yes they do stink the house out but.... 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Yes it's really fkn depressing. I'm not a vegan or vegetarian but I feel like the farms are being pushed to produce MoRE animals at lower pricing, just imagine your life being worth £3.5 😫😞
@@sarahp8937but people on a very limited budget might not be able to afford it. If more people buy the better moral options then fewer farms will have the cheaper types etc. but we're in a cost of living crisis right now. When Mike was filming it was the essentials range. I.e. the cheap range. If I do a roast and it's £10 chicken, £5 for carrots parsnips and green beans, £2 gravy granules, £2 stuffing mix, £3 potatoes - £22 for about 4 people. £5.50 per head. Some people don't have that budget for a single meal. Some people are budgeting £60 or so for a week's food, of course they don't want to use 1/3 of that for one meal.
Oh, Mike, occasionally I think you’ll not be happy until you’re not eating any salt or fat at all. Which would be literally fatal if you could manage it. I wish I could get kippers here in my part of the USA. I probably wouldn’t buy them too often, if I could. Dollar Tree here occasionally has potato gnocchi, I think a whole pound of them for a dollar. One of those things you can’t rely on them having. They’re a strange store. There may be a legal requirement to state the absence of giblets...
Gnocchis are so easy to make: just double the amount of patatos if you have a meal with patatos. On the next day use the patato leftover, mush them, add eggs and flour, salt, ( if you want herbs, a bit tomato sauce, or spinach) to it, knead it to a dough, make a roll, cut 1 cm pieces, take a fork, roll over it and press slightly some rills in it, done. Cook them in water or fry them or freeze them. 🤤

I'm a Brit and I like them on toast (if they're out of a tin), and I like fish for breakfast too!
Us Brits also eat them for breakfast, Manx kippers on toast is a northern classic.

smoked fish with eggs; poached or loosely scrambled - yum!

It said on the packet you can boil in the packet 🙄 he cooked it the worst possible way! Proper kippers are a delight, cooked correctly 😋
Can you do a week on Greggs! I think they have a big enough range for a week!
Porridge with water is far worse than kippers! Also, fish fat is good for you!
porridge made with water and salt, topped with almond butter is a true medieval Glasgow staple 😉
Almond butter is medievil? Doubt it lol
Love kippers & the smell of them lol
@@IamBATMAN2024almonds used to be available back then but I had believed it was only for the rich.
Kippers are fuckin excellent. Proper ones bought from a market are way better than supermarket ones though.
So true, much more flavoursome.

hack to deal with food smells is light a scented candle while cooking and for a little while after
Gosh, your "relatively small" Lunch would be a main meal dinner for me haha! :D
I love kippers. I get that it’s down to personal taste though.
Why would you microwave kippers? of course it's going to make the house stink. if you'd boiled it in the bag the smell would have been contained.

Gracie is 100% right with making porridge on water and putting gravy in her noodles.

Also sprouts take like 15 minutes in the oven, not an HOUR?!
Smoke me a kipper I'll be back for breakfast, I couldn't resist it I had to make the comment

Kipper is a lot better in the oven if you ever try it again.
Is that a mini dehumidifier at 3.29 on the window sill
Did you put fish in the microwave 🤦🏼♀️ your that person ahaha
The braces sound like a nightmare, but hopefully he will come out of it with some top gnashers.
Good grief, Gnocchi don't take three mins and are never served with pesto! 😂
Are we not going to talk about how sad that chicken looked? looked like no seasoning at all except for some greenery randomly sprinkled on top :(
He added salt pepper and thyme from what I can see
Due you give the rest of the fish to Basil?
Roast chicken without gravy ???? That's a sin 😳
could you not make gravy with baking juices and some corn flow, mustard and paprika etc?
If you've ever watched his video's, you should probably have realized that's a little too advanced for his cooking skills. Also he'd have had to plan ahead & got essentials cornflower.
Are your braces on the NHS or private?

Fish for Basil
Need to add a noce of butter or oli to the Gnocchi before the pesto makes it creamer just saying
This day looks like the best that roast looks really yummy 😋 I personally would have added more chicken and no bacon
Your phone auto corrected more bacon to no bacon.

Kippers for breakfast, Aunt Helga? Is it St. Swithin's Day already?
CLIFFORD the big red dog, KIPPERS the stinky fish
Kipper is an English book series (by Mick Inkpen), which were turned into an animated TV series
i got a waitrose ad haha
Those potatoes are already cooked and boiled hence it said shimmer can mike not read instructions shimmer not boil
@Bessie Belle yeah 😝
Jesus christ, please don't tell me you actually cooked those sprouts for an hour? They'd take about 20-25 minutes at most.
ad that's with the bacon being raw, yours must have tasted like charcoal!
You do not know the power of the dark side. (I.E. kippers).....I love them with a poached egg.
I'm with Grace, keep that fish away from me....
edit: I suggested putting mushrooms into the pesto right as you put mushrooms in. I also add spinach! If I want more meat I add chicken or chorizo.

Also us northerners.
Oatmeal porridge is always made with water in Sweden 😊
It's made with water in Scotland too! Then add some salt to it when it's being cooked in the pot.

Ummmm..... not just gravy. Where’s the Yorkshire pudding? Oh I love Yorkshire pudding. Basil seems so sad. Hope Gracies back gets better soon. 💜
Now I keep getting adverts about teeth 😝
Wonder if he added gravy to his meal 🤣🤣.
I dont get it I love sprouts
Don't draw Basil into it....kept well away from the fish,as for the pesto.You'll be lucky!!👉😅😅

Loool that chicken 😂
white people chicken unfortunately
I hope the braces feel better by now. Looks pretty miserable!
