this series seriously needs to be renamed to "i only like things the way that i cook them, everything else is bland"
Innit.... since when was shepherd's pie a spice dish 🤣🤣🤣
@@shaunyshaun86 I mean you add black pepper and that’s a spice 😬
🤣
I’m telling you they need to do the blindfolds all the time
🤣🤣🤣😭
“Even by the color of the meat you can tell she seasoned that beef”
“It’s bland”
Someone’s lying here 😂
I think we know who🤧😂
istg i saw you commenting on an iggy azalea music video
😭😭☠️☠️
If it is a real shepherd's pie is is lamb, it's cottage pie if it is beef.
😂
The fact that Vanessa rated it so high let's me know that Marian was LYING!
I agree
Hahahahahahhaha! 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️😂😂
Personally preference I guess, the way Patti said “The Mash wasn’t doing it for me” then the other woman said “The Mash is very nice”
💯💯💯, she tasted it and knew it was the best so shes talked it down so obvious. Same thing happens on come dine with me
So true
Marian calling Patti’s dish “lacking a lot of flavor” was the joke of the century when her meat literally looked grey
Marian is a damn lie. I can understand if she didn't care for Patti's dish, but no way in the world it was bland. Especially compared to her own.
Yes! I know from other videos that Patti goes hard on the spices. She does not back down.
She’s literally west African I will not believe that this English woman’s food is more seasoned then a Nigerian women’s. When she said bland I almost screamed
@@joydot.dot.dot.8040 literally 😂🤣
You can literally see the spices creeping up into the potatoes from her mince. No way it was bland. Mine does the same thing… and she served hers with premade gravy 🤦🏽♀️
The comments 😂😂😂
I bet Marian usually puts raisins in her shepherds pie. She clearly didn’t get the memo that this is supposed to be a savory dish 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂stop the violence!
😂😂😂😂😂
Vanessa is the only one in this series that is actually being honest and seems to be a genuinely nice person that you could go down to the pub with. Also in this episode hers was the only one I'd eat based on appearance because it had that comfort food look about it :)
marian seems pissed theres no way she thought her gray shepards pie was better than those 2 gorgeous ones xD
None of them looked good imo, don't like it when the meat looks too grey lol. The one who one had a pretty pie but the ratio would have disturbed me. More potato than meat and sauce
marian’s one looks deadddddd
🤣right
@@mimiad397 Exactly my thoughts on Patti’s ratio.
All of them looked sad tbh
Mariam: "some people love bland food"
Me: yes, you are the people 🙄
The meat in hers looked like she never put a single spice in it
Lmao
That’s a big racist comment
@@shannondrover5421 who mentioned race? We are talking about bland food.
@@shannondrover5421 no it’s not shut up
I’m surprised Vanessa’s was bland. It looked like it had lots of flavor.
I think it did because when it comes they smelled the aroma, they are just harsh judges
She’s a liar
Sameee
Probably it’s wasn’t enough
I’ve done my version of shepherds pie with the old El Paso Mexican minced taco meat sachets, smoked bacon, red wine, a bit of tomato puree and Parmesan cheese on top of the mash. People where literally fighting over it. I should make it again now that I’ve mentioned it 😂it’s not traditional at all but it was damn sure delicious
"It reminds me of my partner's mum."
Why would you ever say that in front of a camera?
I was thinking the same thing
She was basically trying to say white politely
I was thinking she'd tasted her partner's mum. Lol
@@GFINHK LOLLLLLLL! I just thought her mother in law smelt like boiled meat but you went down a darker path 🤣🤣
@christian Anderson I meant to say it smelt like my mother in laws mince meat when see cooks lasagna 🤦🏽 😂😂😂
The only way to make this fair is to bring a non-biased judge in to taste them all. Of course the cooks are going to be impartial. Y’all need a better judging system. This is our great opinion. Lol
The channel cocoa butter does that! Same challenge with an extra judge! Sometimes they even blindfold them and make them rate their own dish!
Blind Fols
Yes, I've seen a similar show where a final judge tasted each and came in with the final vote. That worked well.
Yes, the blindfold is key, and I wish they'd do that...!
I disagree with the blind fold. Presentation matters.
But an additional person would be great!
Get some Asian/south American mommys too. The more the better!
Also blind taste test so they can comment on their own food!!!
YESS
doesnt that defeat the purpose of the show
@@Tamara-xp9nx No. It makes them less biased.
Tbh I don’t think there’s much of a South American demographic in the UK!
@@emilycarter6120 there are large south American/Latin communities especially in London.
Vanessa gets a 10 when it comes to character 👌🏾😂
I like Vanessa. Marian was a hater because there is no way Pattis was bland. Marians mince looked grey and completely unappetizing.
That's exactly what I said!
But was you tasting it lol no
@@honeydripsol343 Is Marian your sugar mammy? Pipe down! Lol
@@honeydripsol343 But do you know how to speak English?
@@dreadsonix3961 Clearly she doesn’t 🤣😂🤣
I had so much fun filming this! It was tongue and cheek! Not to be taken to seriously 😝
I enjoyed this series and all of you. Keep it up!!
I love every episode you where in and i hope to see you in more !!!^^
You rock hope to see more of your cooking
Your a black person you aint ethnically english as you aint white
You are awesome
this was 100000% a taste test that should've been blindfolded haha
Why Marian's mince look so anaemic? 🤣🤣
We’ll, she did “flavour” it with vegetable water 🤣🤣🤣
LOOOOOOOOL NOT ANAEMIC? 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who looked at that mince and went "that looks anaemic"
😂😂😂
I think they should consider the mum's making the food, but get different people to taste but they can taste too so that they get the authentic taste
Agreed! Everyone is being biased bc they want to win. I'd want to see how ppl not involved in the rating react to the dishes.
One had carrots in top of hers, one had cheese and one had nothing. They would know immediately if it was theirs even if they were blindfolded. That happens every time. There is always a noticeable element that gives it away 😕
They should blindfold them and make them rate their own as well so it’s fair
I’d like to see their children do a blind taste test! Would they pick their mums or another mums…children would be written out of wills left, right and centre! 🤣
I agree
If this has beef mince in it , it is a cottage pie. Shepherds pie has lamb/ mutton in it. Hence the name, shepherd
As opposed to... cowboy pie? 🤔
@@tanjagantner6685 as opposed to cottage pie, like they said.
@@Peaches2456 I didn't know that, learned something new
@@Peaches2456 usually in the UK they put cheese on top of the mash on cottage pie, but the primary difference is the meat type.
Yes, was looking for this
Marian complaining about all this “bland” food but her filling looked pale and dry af🤔
She not use to seasonings 😂😂😂😂
And the only “flavor” in her food is salt and pepper 🤣
@@ismariecoalg8713 blq people be like "I only taste seasonings and shit"
@@arthurgoonie4596 Troll acc.
Shepherds pie isn’t meant to be spicy 😂 but it does have to have flavour....
Exactly
She’s saying spice but I think she means seasoning lol
@@sierranovember2479 Nah she said spice. She knows the difference.
Yall understand. Most seasoning is spice right. You got herbs. Then spice. Dosen't nessaceryily mean its gonna be spicy
@@jaaycb3907 Yall understand dhe said spice, not herbs lol
They all looked a little lacking, I prefer it to be a deep rich sauce with red wine, homemade stock etc cooked low and slow, topped with crunchy, creamy mash and you get the sauce bubbing through the top.
How do you achieve crunchy and creamy mash? Are you referring to the topping?
@@Mesmerise5107 yeah that mash should have a crispier exterior and a fluffy interior . You can broil it uncovered at a higher heat towards the end of the baking process to crisp it up but not so long that the mash dries out
Why didnt you join then?
All their meat was too pale for me
that sounds perfect
"Its just like mince and mash" LMAO YES KAREN ITS A SHEPHERDS PIE
I guess in the same way spaghetti bolognaise is just pasta and mince.
Putting mince and mash on a plate is not Shepard’s pie.
I really like Vanessa. I watched a few of the vids and she gives props when due. There are other channels that let them blind test all of the renditions including their own. I wonder what would she rate her dish if she didn’t know it was hers. That would be funny, on top of her already honest personality
"l don't like the smell of this meat. It reminds me of my partner's Mum."?!?!! 😳
Your partner's mum might need to sort her hygiene out lol
@@keiron.4612 It is nothing to say about an undoubtedly elderly woman on the internet for everyone to hear. It is demeaning.
@@tanjagantner6685 I agree..I love my mother in law so much and could never imagine saying something so demeaning about her and ESPECIALLY for the world to see. That was purely unnecessary. Just a trashy low blow.
@@tanjagantner6685 I thought she meant the smell of the pie was like the pie her partner's mum makes. Maybe I am nice and other people just go for a gutter thought first? I dunno...
@@LouieLouie505 I thought this too… not that he MIL actually smelled like unseasoned mince 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You know Marian is hating when she said Patti's "lacked flavor"... I know us black women be seasoning everything 😂
EXACTLY
gosh some real cry babies in the comments. do people realise that there’s a difference between a dish being spicy hot (scoville heat) and a dish containing spices for seasoning? if you like your food bland just say that you embrace that, but simple dishes like this can also be seasoned simply and effectively 😂 try it some time x
There still shouldn't be spice in it though, red wine stock and herbs. (No salt is not a spice )
@@fplnasri6663 so what?
@@fplnasri6663 Just say u like ur food bland innit
@@fplnasri6663 shouldn’t! Wow that’s a bit strong. Well there was spices added and the winning food didn’t look grey. So what happens now the spice has been added?!? Nothing! People can make food the way they like. If you don’t like seasoning don’t add it and keep it moving…simple.
@@Jerkrice387 do you even know what bland means
One thing I can say is Patti is spot on with presentation. All her dishes are so appealing to the eye.
You can tell it was spicy in her face she just didn’t want to say tbf they all looked dead I like mine oozing out with gravy, crispy on the top and deffo got to have Henderson relish🤤
It’s true! If you have to add gravy you know it’s a wrap! But when Vanessa commented on the smell I already knew 🤢
Anyone else loves the British episodes 😂❤️
Imagine Logging into youtube after the show to rewatch yourself only to hear them bash your food🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'd be punching air
Awe I like Vanessa for being so honest!
Patti’s hair is stunning
I love these "TRY" videos! Keep 'em coming!
Shepherds pie isn’t meant to be spicy stop lying
true but without spice its bland
I think she was using spice and seasoning inter-changlingly
Spices doesn’t necessarily mean spicy🤣 she deffo meant seasoning
@@nadiyaallom5987 she said it lacked spice not spices that's the difference
@@nadiyaallom5987 she means chilli you $! Ut
Vanessa rating Patti's dish was the best part of this video.
At least Vanessa is honest!
Please add more of these ❤
I always LOVE the British moms 🥰🥰🥰
How do I get my mum on this please??! Her Shepard’s pie and cooking skills are ridiculously good 😱
Check their websites 🤔🤷🏾♂️
But ironic Marian talks about bland food and yet hers scored the least 😂😂😩
All those getting their knickers in a twist because spices were mentioned in a shepherd's pie, but missed where Marian said the other pies were bland (i.e. lacked spices). So could you please tell us why you're really mad?
You can have flavor without spice. I did think it was weird how one person could think a dish was bland and another thought the same dish was well spiced tho
We know why they mad
@@Hannacalebclark I'm talking about spices as in seasoning, not spice as in scoville scale hot.
@@lillianchinonso3740 the yts don’t know the difference 🙃😂
@@lillianchinonso3740 you can still have flavour without spice. Meat, vegetables, stock and herbs all have flavour as well.
But I do get the point of your original post though.
I feel like Patti wasn't 100% honest
Marian*
I love Patti's new look!😍
I recognize Patti from the others and know she can throw down some good food, so I'm rooting for her.
none of those Shepard’s pies look appetising 🙃
It’s not really a good looking meal... taste is important
@@Megan_Jennifer facts I couldn’t care less about how it looks
Appearance does matter as well as taste
“where’s the spices the cinnamon the nutmeg?”😂
Guess what? Those are spices
@@ddobro2 yea and they both don't belong in a sheppards pie.
Marian tasted the soul in that Shepards pie and said “no ma’am she’s not gonna out do me. Imma have to score her low”. She ain’t wanna feed that to her family cos they’d realize the whole time they was missing out on seasoned meat in their meals.
Please get them to taste their own food blindfolded
Love these videos
A pinch of humility
Not sure traditional Shepherd's Pie is supposed to be spicy but I guess its an interesting twist! My tips:
- you need to get some caramelisation on the meat (whether lamb or beef) need to get some colour and really brown it.
- the base should be onion and carrot (optional...celery) make sure you caramelise it a bit to get some flavour!
- season with fresh or dried thyme and a bay leaf
- you need to good rich beef/lamb gravy (from stock) with a good glug of Worcestershire sauce. A dash of tomato puree or red wine is optional but some like to add this.
- mashed potato whipped with either a whisk or electric hand whisk. Plenty of butter, salt and white pepper (no need for milk/cream...that will make it too runny)
- finish under a hot grill. Either fork the mashed potato and let it go all crusty and charred at the edges (very traditional). Or my favourite...finely chopped leeks with cheddar cheese and let it go all bubbly and melted.
Obviously lamb is Shepherds Pie and beef is Cottage Pie but the principles are the same. Those are my tips from Lancashire passed down from my grandmothers (though they would never have added wine!) Traditionally in Lancashire we would have it with pickled beetroot or pickled onions!
Here on the East Coast Us most Shepard pies have corn. Interesting to see the differences. That one with carrots on it looked really good!
As a person from the east coast, I have NEVER heard of putting corn in Shepard's pie.
And I've only seen the Carrots and peas.
@@material-cheshirekhatter2413 Another east coaster and I’ve never seen or heard of corn in Shepherds pie. That’s just not a regional thing. Maybe it’s particular to your family.
Can I just say these mums have great style 🙌🏼❤️
I like patti with the first group she debuted in everyone was kind and Genuine and were honest
I have made shepherds pie with lamb for my family, and it didn't have spices, just a lot of flavor. The mash potatoes were done the American way and browned. I am not a meat eater, but my family said it was delicious.
What does it mean to do the potatoes the american way?
Shepherds pie is supposed to be made with lamb or mutton. If it is made with beef/mince then it is cottage pie.
Spices like seasonings not spice as in spicy 🙄🙄
I think by her saying the potatoes were done the American way, is saying they were sloppy 😂. Mashed potato needs to be creamy but not sloppy
@@kaseyestella7564 people like bland food with barely any taste and thats on having no taste buds...
Marion was hating. When that Maggi hit her tastebuds she was like Dammmmnnnn, but couldn’t show her true feelings so decided to say it was bland, 😂😂😂😂she should have just said it’s not to her taste, but she lied instead! Then talk about people must like bland food 😂😂😂 stop talking Marion you came last with your grey offering!
That's why one eye almost couldn't open fully cos of the flavour tumping her tongue & she still said bland?? Lol
They should have a reunion where they go over each other’s scores in front of each other.
Mine is my favorite. It is so yummy and good when I make it. I make it for all the holidays and just even when it is not. It is all about seasoning the meat properly. The meat is the start
Moms are very competitive about their food!
She made a savory dish sweet. Lol
I like Shepherds pie to be sweet and savory
Every time I watch these videos I'm like I would probably enjoy all their recipes!
It would be interesting to have a dish from a British chef in the line up and ask them to rate it making them think it’s another mum’s submission 😂. It could be Gordon Ramsay’s shepherd’s pie and two of them would say “it’s bland” 🤣
They need to make them try their own stuff blind folded😂
I think people have this notion of traditional shepherds pie being a bland dish when it isn't at all. I think breaking it down and really focusing on each individual bit is the key. Plenty of butter, milk and pepper in the mash, maybe with some nice cheese on top. And the mince itself being cooked off with some caramelized onions, making sure to sear the mince somewhat and plenty of salt and pepper. Deglaze the pan with some stock/gravy and then add peas and carrots.
Patti gets on my damn NERVES !!
Love the comments going in on Marian🤣🤣
I’ve done my version of shepherds pie with the old El Paso Mexican minced taco meat sachets, smoked bacon, red wine, a bit of tomato puree and Parmesan cheese on top of the mash. People where literally fighting over it. I should make it again now that I’ve mentioned it 😂it’s not traditional at all but it was damn sure delicious
Sounds good for sure!
I want some! Drop the full recipe/method pls n thnx .
It's also not shepherds pie.
The fact that her pie was sweet then had the nerve to say the other one had no seasoning when some of the first words out of Vanessa’a mouth was that it was seasoned tells me all I need to know. Mariam is a liar.
this one is funny... kudos 🎉to the winner and miss perfect enjoyed your dish...applaud to all the ladies
They all roasted each other lmao
The way the camera lingered on Vanessa’s dish in the beginning completely took me out. The editing is as shady as the moms 😭
None of these look like the Shepard’s pie I ate growing up 🤔
Maybe it’s different in Australia? Then again my dad is Greek and a chef 👨🏽🍳 lol
Who knows 😂
Definitely no bland food in my household, so I feel the two ethnic mums who were focused on that!
I love these videos
the way they smile whilst saying the food is bad lmao
These are so great! 😂😂😂
Definitely wanna see some Greek people doing one of these! 😁
I’m going to give y’all my recipe. Diced onion and 2 cloves minced garlic; sautéed. Cook the minced meat, add salt and pepper to your liking (for me, I like quite a bit of pepper). Add an Oxo/stock cube, as well as a heaped teaspoon of marmite. Cook on a low heat. Add some vegetables (already boiled; not too firm, not too soft) - my choice is carrots and runner beans). Cut the veggies to your liking. Put the veggies in the meat. Add a bit of water and some gravy granules to give a little bit of a sauce so meat doesn’t dry out. Boil some potatoes; add a little bit of swede - mash it together with butter, milk, teaspoon of English mustard and little bit of salt. Add minced meat to dish, top with potato and put cheese. Cook for 20 mins in oven to make cheese golden!
Sounds good.. but veggies should be on the side and cheese shouldn't really be in it-maybe in cottage pie.
@@mariposaorofusionfoodchann7573 optional extras but as I mentioned it’s my recipe, not the only recipe
@@mariposaorofusionfoodchann7573 If these ladies are allowed to make their own versions, let this person have their cheese. 😐
The lady that keeps talking about “spice” it’s bloody shepherds pie😂
Vanessa is a whole mood.
patti knows best cause we know how kind she is so if she says it’s not good…i believe her!!
Marian's meat looked barely cooked, it looked anaemic. She was telling lies about Patti's being bland 🤣. Even Vanessa's meat was more appealing. I thought Patti's could do with more meat, but clearly the flavour is good.
Do u want spice and seasoning on ur food?
Patti: YES
Yum now I want shepherds pie
People forget just like in the Italian episodes, some places do it differently, like how a full English would be different in wales etc.
Lol, please listen to the 'sizzle' sound after Marian's shade on 5:03
The people commenting rude things won't acknowledge that because then they would have to look at their own attitudes and adjust them.
Imagine if it were someone saying offhand comments about a food from their culture or how they cook. The only comments that have upvotes enough to be seen are toxic or just mindless copy and paste of the person above them... While your comment is trying to be polite and respect individual taste and cultural differences... Has 3 upvotes. The Italian episodes and comment sections are just overall better. The comment section reminds me of watching the Bad Girls Club.
These Mums didn't hold back!
You need to do this with my mum she’d win every time
I think they should have an unbiased taster of the food to give us an actual insight into the real taste of the food.
Marian’s shepherds pie looked bland, tasteless and like it had been cooked for about ten seconds in the microwave 😂
I love Vanessa 😂😂
Marian must have had covid if she said Patti's has no flavor 🤣
I try Patti's Shepards pie it looks good af
If its spicy its not shephards pie!
Watching these makes me realize I'm a damn good home cook.
It's not about who wins here, it's about who loses LOLOL I knew Marian was gonna lose with that attitude in the intro xD
Yes, the mums should grade and also should be an outside party to help balance the scores.
I volunteer my services as an independent taste tester... in the interest of fairness, of course
Marian had her whole face on lock from Patti's dish trying to force that lie out her mouth.
Patti wants to add pepper to everything lol
An extra judge who is completely unbiased would be great.
And I thought my Nan's Shepherd's Pie was bad now that she's old and has forgotten how to cook.......... think I'd eat hers over any of these to be honest.
It's true none of them looked great
