I think all you people that have ;posted negative comments have obviously forgotten that she is cooking 'on a budget' and doing her best to produce tasty meals with the minimum ingredients. Something that is very much appreciated by people like myself who 'subsist' literally on pennies - give the girl a break !!
You open up a whole world of hurt by using the term 'girl'!
@@keyboarddancers7751 Explain ?
@@noobFPV Try calling her 'girl' to her face!
@@keyboarddancers7751 Why, what's gonna happen ? She always looks like she is gonna start crying.
Found a girl called jack book for 7p on charity book stall. This way of cooking has totally changed my relationship with food and the way I shop and cook. I recommend this to everyone I meet. It means I come in on budget every month and can afford to live. It's nothing short of revolutionary. Well done to jack keep up the good work. You are truly an inspiration and life saver to anyone really struggling to afford to eat
I get away with half a packet of mince but add 3 large grated carrots. No one knows, shhh
adding carrots to minced meat is a godsent. Nobody notices that majority of the sauce is just carrots and tomatoes hahahah
Thank you for all the recipes Jack. I really struggle with cooking, it's not just the cooking side it's the prepping, ingredients and the cooking. I have Dyspraxia and struggle with this. I'm 27 and still can't peel veg. Eventually I gave up peeling them. I love to follow your recipes, I'm on a extreme budget and simple enough for me to try and follow along.
The peels have alot of nutrients in them so it's quite healthy to keep the peel on. And for the chopping I use a food processor. I know if your on a budget it's a big initial cost, but it's a life saver if you struggle with chopping.
I leave the peel/skin on. Just wash the veg. Only peel onions
Cooking is not rocket science it’s more complex than that keep up the good work my brother in law couldn’t cook a lettuce after his parents died well he had to ask how much salt do you put in the washing water . He is so called able bodied… keep up trying Melissa
Thank you Jack once again brilliant
People think Parmesan cheese is posh and expensive. Because you'd only need a tiny amount, and can combine it with cheaper cheese, it works out as good value. It also lasts for months in a container the fridge.
Love her. But plenty of ways to have made this cheaper an d still good - way too much (expensive) meat
Looks lovely Jack nice name too same as my dad we always make white sauce with corn flour
Ok why pork mince. Turkey is much cheaper. Tinned tomatoes rather than puray more vitamins. Why not super cheap cheddar from Lidl or aldi for the topping? Why not add frozen veg to bulk it out add vitamins?
Looks awesome ... will try as well as your kidney carrot burgers after next shop.. newbie to your channel. 🥰
Lasagne bolgonese soup!!
Honestly, she doesn't look like a very good cook to me.
Oh nooooo! That is not how you cook bolognese or in general tomato sauce! You need to fry the meat, then add the tomato (without water!!!) and keep frying it in oil until the tomato gets brown. Then after you fryed the tomato ad water. This and nothing else will create the real tomato sauce flavour. You have to caramelise the tomato when you want to have a real sauce. Otherwise your sauce tastes like canned tomato with water and not like a real sauce...
Cost the same and taste not cheap.
Well the book is for British people. They are easy to please. It is more about how heavy food feels in your stomach afterwards not about taste.
Spice some minced meat with a bit of salt, sugar and vinegar, put it on the pasta with some peas and they are happy.
Therefore tomato paste solved in water is something really great in British cuisine...
JJ Bedrhi . You’ve missed the point..what’s more you can’t spell.
You just stereotyped British people, saying we are easy to please. I myself am British, and this is incorrect in my eyes.
Good to know, thanks!
Jacks a joke sorry about her she’s truly ridiculous
I would now go to cheaper supermarkets than sainsbury's
What is mince?
It’s just a ground up meat. Beef, pork, chicken, and turkey all come in minced or ground forms in most supermarkets.
I love listening to you talk.
Dear god. 🤢
It looks dreadful, doesn’t it?
Damn, can you do that
It looks like your sinning
The supermarket one looks much nicer.
youre supposed to cook tomato paste out, you cant add it raw to things without cooking, your tomato sauce will taste weak because of this - signed, an angry italian
Yeah, jacks an embarrassment sorry about her. She’s not taken seriously in britain. Nobody will be copying this
She can’t cook. She’s just a total thieving grifter
i actually think the ready meal version looks nicer
Julia Miles . I actually don’t.
camera man doesn't like tats
