We cooked from a Chef’s Home Fridge (DISASTER) 

I would LOVE to see what Kush was going to make with these ingredients! 😄

I'm just blown away that Ben says they have fat, on fat, on fat...and they go, we'll cut through it with a mayonnaise 😂😂😂

Please tell me that you’ve also raided Bens fridge for the normals to deal with in a later video. This is absolutely brilliant!

This had real "I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed" energy from Ebbers. I felt like I was watching 3 schoolboys getting told off by the teacher 😅

I’d love to see a segment where Ben cooks predominantly with ingredients he’s never eaten before. Getting to see the process behind tasting, understanding and then implementing would be super interesting!

Kush's face of incredulity at the end when he saw what the normals were doing with his ingredients was amazing. Like "How did you manage to turn my amazing ingredients and dinner party into such a disaster". The guys should have used the cocktail mix so they could drink it later to drown their sorrows.

I love how Barry at the end of making a dish goes: “This needs an egg.” 😂

Regardless of the outcome, I always have pure respect for you all. This is NOT an easy thing to do, period. No way would I allow myself to be filmed doing it. LOL Best to ya, Boys.

Seeing such a negative reaction from Ben is genuinely unsettling. He's like a disappointed parent

"give it to new daddy." Mike continues to be the best part of Sorted. LMAO

As always, I tend to feel for Mike in these videos because he always seems to be the one willing to make the decisions while the other two faff around the edges, and even if he doesn't have a particularly good win rate with them, it does seem to be that he's the only one sticking his neck out.

Kush’s face is priceless. You can see him wondering what happened to all those nice options they discussed and the tasty ingredients that were in his fridge.

"Baz, you left the hob on." This was so on point, since the boys panic devolved into their first season selves. As others have said, I'd love to see a follow up where Kush makes something with the same ingredients.

"Let's not fall into old habits" -Mike Huttlestorm's -Jamie adds more and more ... and more flavor -and Barry left the hob on LMAO

This NEEDS a 3 way battle now, with as many of the original ingredients that they used from this episode.

Please, make a redemption video out of this. I think there's lots of learning still hidden away in this!! this is hugely inspirational and we all would benefit from the wisdom behind the "flavour bombs"

Ben’s feedback at the end might as well have been “I’m not Angry, I’m just disappointed” 😂

I would love to see non-timed challenges like this. Give the normals a real chance to work through the process and see what they come up with without the worry of a timed challenge.

Can we get a video of Kush doing the exact same challenge with his fridge contents to show how it should have been done?

I love that you guys still shared this video even though no one seemed particularly happy with the result! Thank you for showing us how you looked at the result at the end and talked over what could have been done differently. ♥️♥️♥️

The only thing i missed was Kush tasting the dish along with Ben and the normals. I really wanted to see his feedback to them as he was tasting the dish.

I would like to see 2 videos come out of this one. 1. Put Kush on camera with the same ingredients to show us what he can do by making 3 dishes. 2. Get the same ingredients again for each of the home chefs (normals) and have a cook off where they each have to prepare 3 dishes.

I got so excited when I saw the ingredients you had, and then Barry, Jamie and Mike happened. Oh dear.

Mike really took command of the kitchen in this episode, its cool to see the boys as such a strong team

Poor Kush, did his weekend dinner party with cocktails turn into takeaway pizza and a pack of beers with no food left? Imagine the disappointment of arriving expecting a fine dining experience and getting a takeaway pizza 😂

I love that no matter what, be it Pass It On or any other type of group challenge, Barry sees what the group has clearly decided and is working toward and then decides to do his own thing anyway. Every time.

Would love to see what Ben would've made with these ingredients. Or Kush (give him some stage-time) and let him explain some of the ingredients that were so unfamiliar.

“who feels confident making a broth” jamie: “not me” jamie at the end after it all went to shit: “if I was on my own I would’ve made a broth”

I had an idea for a sneaky switch up on a "meals from leftovers" episode: the Normals get given leftovers and asked to cook some meals, Ben thinks he will cook something with the same initial selection afterwards but actually he gets the leftover leftovers that the Normals didn't use.

As someone with a lot of Kush's ingredients in their fridge, what the Normals were presented with was extremely challenging for someone not used to those foods. I felt tremendously sorry for them because they pretty much were set up to fail but they gave it their best go!

"Tastes absolutely nothing" "It must be a bay leaf" 😂😂

Maaaaan Mike's efforts on improve planning and explanation is really impressive. Great work guys!

Reminds me of being at a friend's after a night out and attempting to creat something from the nothing in their fridge LoL Kush definitely has more to work with 🤣

Would love to see this become a full series that different chefs send you images of what they have. Get in Poppy's fridge!!!!

Would love to see what Kush would make with the same ingredients and teach the normals how to use them!

Does Mike have a leadership badge? Cause he really does step up when all 3 normals are put together haha. With those ingredients I'd probably have made a soupey/stew thing or maybe a jeon or rice thing. But I'm comfortable with throwing ingredients together in an Asian style dish

the bay leaf slander 😤 you should definitely do an episode on comparing dishes made with and without bay leaves because I swear it DOES make a difference! 💕🌿

It's absolutely hilarious that with the ability to communicate and planning time, the boys still managed to make a proper Pass It On disaster. Confused dish, too many ingredients, no concrete game plan, everyone doing their own thing despite what else is going on in the kitchen, Mike breaking down halfway through and panicking, Baz adding eggs to the detriment of the dish, and Jamie properly Spaffing it by deep-frying the pastry/wrappers. We need more of this!

Barry was so close to making a cloud egg as a ‘way of saving’ the dish you could see 😂

The sneaky little "what the fuck is that?" from Barry as he's cooking the omelette and looks in on their plating, absolutely brilliant. 🤣🤣 12:00

Barry: (struggles to open jar) Jamie: “Give it to Daddy.” Mike, after seeing Jamie struggle: “Give it to new Daddy.” Workplace Banter on point as always 😂 3:25 Mike displaying New Daddy Energy > Mike in the Shower.

I love that Kush had laoganma and Chinese sausage! I’ve got those same ingredients in my fridge and they’re my go tos for adding lots of flavor to bland dishes

having all those amazing Asian food ingredients and managing to make a salad + omelet out of it is incredible in a way.

Ooh now I want to see them all repeat this individually and see how differently it goes

“This is the safe stuff.” So there’s also some fish in Kush’s fridge that might kill you?!?

As a Korean national born bred and living in korea, i’m happy to see jonggatjib kimchi! It’s the best brand for ready to eat kimchi, and it’s my family’s preferred brand

Mike is really taking the lead on this one! The boys are chaotic but their skills really are above normals now 🤣 Edit: Yikes, should probably wait to comment until I finish the video lol

I appreciate Ben going for the sheer constructive criticism as an ernest professional chef and that the guys didn't shy away from hearing it. Sometimes we just need to stumble again to remember how we were supposed to pick ourselves up.

Good to see the boys cook outside their comfort zone. And we get to learn new ingredients that we might not have heard of.

I'd love to see yall do a series of videos that are essentially come dine with me, you're guys all host a dinner party each week for a few weeks. Maybe at each other's homes, or with a house sound stage yall rent and the host that week decorates then sets up the meal as though it was a dinner party

Congratulations to Mike on the new baby! And Barry for cutting his hair!

Failing is not a bad thing!!! You learn from failure and that was the absolute beauty of this video! Not everything needs to turn out great all the time. This shows that you're human plus I myself still learned new things like tasting ingredients and then coming up with something! Great approach! Don't beat yourself up over it (:

That tap on the table and lid opening is outright class! Way to go Mike!

Not only do I want to see Ben’s ingredients but I want to see what Ben would of done with Kush’s ingredients!

I love seeing more of kush. He's such a character, In The best way possible.

The fun thing about this is trying to imagine something close to what they are trying to make! At first i was thinking an Asian style leek soup, at the end i thought it was gonna be some type of okonomiyaki!

This was chaotic in the best way. I would not have known what to do with those ingredients at all, so I'm still impressed by the boys' ability to get anything on the plate.

This is a live action representation of the saying "too many cooks spoil the broth" EDIT: I wrote this RIGHT before Jamie said it lol

I would love to see a re-take where they each compete with the same ingredients. Even now knowing what they are, it would be fun to see what they took away.

Frankly, I love the transparency of this video. Even with all the years of practice and how amazing chefs our “normals” have become, there are times where you just kind of go for it and it flops. There’s nothing wrong with these mistakes, so long as we take the time to learn from them as Ben took the time to discuss, not only as they worked but also when they were debriefing at the end. It wasn’t in a sassy event like what happens when Jamie manages to piss off an entire country or when Barry decides to be Barry - it was a thorough discussion of what fell through, and what could be done to prevent that from happening in the future. I’d love to see them attempt a similar challenge in the future, just to see what they’ve retained from this experience and how they’ll adapt to create something truly delicious ☺️

The Normals were basically dropped on an alien planet and told to make a meal in 30 minutes out of some scraps. Of course they failed. I don't even know if there was any food in that fridge. They clearly didn't recognize most of it. This video was designed to make them fail, and it wasn't very enjoyable to watch.

This is one of many times I wished I could just jump through the screen and took over, you had everything for an amazing soup with the glace and miso and and sausage and the veg, pretty sure if they had given each of you the same ingredients separately as Jaime said it would have come out much better.

Mike's leadership skills are vastly underrated

One of the first times I've seen Ben so disappointed 😭I would have loved to see what Kush would have made with those ingredients. If I had access to rice, I would have thought to make a claypot rice and maybe some dumplings on the side. Could have used the chicken glace to make a quick stock together with the leeks to be used to cook the rice along with those mushrooms and the lup cheong (chinese sausage). Mayyybe could have added the snow fungus for some crunchy texture in the claypot rice but that's normally used in desserts believe it or not! With the dumplings could have chopped up the kao soi (chinese chives) and added it to some minced pork and/or the kimchi for some acidity amongst all the rich flavours and maybe chopped cabbage for the filling?

Oof. The guys really need to stop trying to pull of these deconstructed, warm salad bollocks dishes. They always epic fail when they try something like this.

You know it's gonna be a storm when they spend half the time trying to find out "what's this thing" 😁😁 I'm so ready for the chaos..

I think you all need a vacation. Everyone seemed tired. Ben seemed genuinely irritated and just frustrated but without the usual lightheartedness. Like, “how are they not better than this?” But it’s a fair question because we’ve seen many times that they *are* better, so something felt off here.

Give it to Daddy 😂😂😂

It's a bit tough making the brief one "plate", rather than one "meal". All those independent components would have been great on separate plates to share between several people and accompanied by a pot of rice. Allow the boys to use Asian ingredients in an "Asian" way!

the thing about having a plan is, don't abandon it unless you have a better plan. Right off the bat they dumped what they'd been planning and replaced it with a shrug and just started frying things hoping that eventually a plan would materialise.

It seemed like the guys got so afraid to mess up cool new ingredients that they *really* messed up the ingredients lol. I honestly wonder if they'd trusted themselves in the first place if it would have turned out way better. Can you really mess up a broth so apocalyptically that it might have turned out worse?

everyone needs a Ben in their lives. what a great teacher he is

Love how Barry was enthusiastically eating and distributing what he thought were bay leaves at the beggining, even though those would be toxic to eat.

you know what, i really liked this video because it’s relatable. we didn’t do amazing but we learned something 😊 also, are we easing kush to be in front of the camera this year? 👀

"He hasn't used up his Daddy powers yet." That actually hits when you realise his partner was in her third trimester at this time XD

So many amazing Asian flavours to use and choose from...and the boys made a salad XD

My guide as a normal is always to simplify as much as possible, so it well and add flare. They had the base there to make a really good bowl of ramen. Topped with sausage, corn, the Choy thing and kimchi.

over a year ago i commented that i was going to do a culinary education, next week monday after doing an education, internship and other learning im starting work in the restaurant of a well known hotel chain where i live im very excited :) thank you all for being an inspiration to so many aspiring cooking enthusiasts

How about combining the two concepts: Pass It On and Cook what is in a Chef's Fridge. Everyone sees the ingredients beforehand so they know what they may see and then you get the organised chaos of Pass It On as it is one person in the kitchen at a time leaving confusion for the person after them.

3 Things: - Jamie’s Reaction to Food Items is Improv Comedy at its best. - ‘Wind Dried Sausage’ makes me giggle because I’m immature. - Mike’s Arch-nemesis is the Bay Leaf and I don’t agree lol

"Wind-dried sausage" sounds like what the fellows would have after showering at a nudist camp.

Must say I really liked Ben jumping in to give some feedback and try and steer them back oncourse. In retrospect it's because he could already see the disaster looming, but I thought it was quite nice to see his thought process and how he'd improve on what the normals are doing.

Now do one from Ben's fridge, with a wildcard half way through the cooking process that they also have to incorporate something from his garden 😂

Straight into it... a very good move. Titles are just things we skip!

3:18 excuse me Sorry What??? Did I miss something??? Does Mike and his partner deserve congratulations and all the best and good luck in a new journey?? Also him opening this jar was smooth AF, well done! 3:44 Did you leave ANYTHING in Kush's fridge??? I honestly think the normals actually did a good job I watched the video and it felt to me throughout that they really tried to do something and work together and that everyone is equal and not that one decides on everyone, unlike things in the past. And although they were afraid of using certain products, and its really logical thing that comes from lack of familiarity, they tasted and tried on the way and I'm proud of them. Towards the end it was a bit difficult, but I really think you were too hard on yourselves and that the path you took here is more important than the final result.

They should do a follow up episode where they each make a dish from Kush's fridge. See what they come up with and how different they'd be!

So good to actually see these three working together and genuinely thinking to produce something, instead of each trying to create something separate. So good to finally see them learning too! Please keep it up and keep making this style of video. This is the kind of thing that will eventually (hopefully!) lead the team to be AMAZING at pass it on. It was much more satisfying to watch this, where the team genuinely tried and then failed, as opposed to the Christmas live event where you almost couldn’t say it was a genuine attempt and so was quite unsatisfying. Great to see the genuine reflection and feedback/help from Ben too. Would also LOVE to see each person tackle this individually….!!

…. I expect a „kush stole from our home fridges“ next, preferably with the normals freaking out and Ben laughing Maybe include what ever is cooked as the price for some other challenge between the normals…..

I think they should have had all the ingredients from kush’s fridge and each got to race to pick them like a mystery box iron chef kind of challenge and each made one dish. Then I think at the end they should show kush cooking what he intended with the items and he picks the winner or who did the best out of the normals

Barry: “It didn’t need more chilli.” Me: “I cannot compute this data.”

Lao Gan Ma... I never liked this since I grew up in China as a kid, especially the fermented tofu variant. It's sort of infamous in China (and in memes) as well. Wind dry sausages are great though, and you can do a ton with it. Great video, it was fun a chaotic.

I think i started laughing around 9:30 and didn't stop until the end 🤣🤣🤣

Ahhh. I see that we have three new members at the Culinary Incompetence Asylum. We meet every Wednesday, and don't worry, we have the meeting catered.

I felt like Ben was actually scolding the Normals at the end there "Get on the naughty step! Think about what you've done! 😤" 🤣🤣

Guys...need to bring back the blooper at the end. Not the same without a little sign off to complete the video.

This was genuinely painful 😅. You guys tried super hard though. I would have made an omelette too!

I LOVE when all three are in the kitchen. It’s so fun and the friendship shines.

I can already tell this will be amazing and CHAOTIC

"I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed" -Ebbers, probably

1:22 Jamie and Ben giving Kush’s “secret” weekend plans away! 😂
