Gordon Ramsay - How to make fondant potatoes

[AveragePope]

Fuck that. I want pizza.

[Boodhunnilesh]

the potato makes me think the roasted potatoes in skyrim ! lol

[EidahageFeroe]

I can't get away from the awful "fawndawn" that Ben in Hells Kitchen Season 5 kept saying.

[gar1558]

on 1.21.. thyme - bit of a chef secret.... bollox.. and why is he dancing around all the time.... twat...

[losttribe]

@gar1558 HE is a phony

[CorrosionX3]

They were still hard after 20 minutes :(

[Bokuza]

How does he just grab all these scolding hot foods with his bare hands? When a drip of hot oil pops out of a pan and touches my skin i flip the entire pan on the floor.

[MegaGreendayfan101]

@Bokuza gordon ramsay is a fucking machine, he would make chuck norris cower and run off just by staring at him.

[losttribe]

@Bokuza THIS GUY is a phony twat.

JUST Ask why he can eat Casu Marzu (maggot filled cheese) when he screams on the other hand at Kitchen Nightmares presence of household cockroaches.

[Stuntman175]

@losttribe There is a slight difference between what you eat, and what your customers eat. Casu Marzu is banned in the EU and can't be sold commercially. On the other hand, rat droppings and urine are known to kill human beings and cockroaches are usually in contact with garbage, poison meant to kill rats and that's not healthy for you or anyone else. Oh, he tried Casu Marzu and as you can see in the F-Word, he hated it.

[roflolmao127127]

Explains "Fondant" means cooked in stock.

No stock used in the whole video.

[poobum50]

@roflolmao127127 @1:30 ???

[xspongebobx]

@roflolmao127127 are you stupid? he poured chicken stock before putting the potatoes in the oven

[bettybup]

@roflolmao127127 he did used it, right before he put them in the oven

[NITECOREPD]

@roflolmao127127 thats right donut brain

[Camberwell86]

@roflolmao127127 Well you look a bit stupid.

[hugmeshootme]

Iron tongue?

[fjordking]

have to admit he is a very good teacher for us non-chefs

simple to the point and no yelling

[ozcrak]

high class chef???  half the stuff he cooks looks like shit

[9116826aaa]

@ozcrak wtf u tlaking about, name 120 dishes that look like shit, then post a video of u making a better version, before that stfu pls

[lambyiii]

@ozcrak don't knock it until you try it!

[dilwich123]

He may be a good chef but he aint as good as Worrell Thompson at shoplifting.

[SnowyChords]

200 degrees CELCIUSSSS is 392 FARENHEIT for those dumb enough to make that mistake like me

[BendixTheMan]

Jamie Oliver > Gordon Ramsay

[saff3356]

@BendixTheMan LOL

[SnowyChords]

@loafochangeo why?

[thijscluistra]

I love how gordon spanks himself at 0:12

[jmar4life]

Looks good as always

[nokyanr1]

too much oil..i don't know but it's a bit too much for a simple patato

[Zephilindrum]

@nokyanr1 You're not gonna drink the damn thing and if you know how to fry properly the oil will only remain on the surface.

[x87alpha1]

I'm eating this right now!!!! Delicious!!!!

[saberj2x]

watch?v=vmvduaJ0dtc This guy does it better me thinks

[kevin4free]

@saberj2x that guy wasted so much potatoes from using that circle thingy lol

but its not like u need to be a pro cook to do this kind of stuff >.>

[elcordobez11]

the fondant potatos might have equal surface at both sides....

[paremphasis]

What's the heat ... of the oven?

[DonStepien1]

@paremphasis 200 celcius

[x87alpha1]

what's that chiken thing?

[paremphasis]

This guy has such a badass voice. He should do audiobooks. Or be in A Game of Thrones.

[MAXXFIGO]

i know it's tasty but it's full with saturated fat...it's like eating at Mc Donald belive me...the best light way to cook it's on wave or nature pomme de terre

[paremphasis]

@MAXXFIGO Yes, eating potatoes is the same as eating a hamburger that doesn't rot inside a year.

[stacetheface47]

@MAXXFIGO The only Saturated fat your getting mainly from is the butter and he used maybe 2 table spoons. Olive oil which it looks like he mainly cooked them in is made up of mono unsaturated fat which is the best fat for you and its low in saturated fat..

[raileanulucian]

And today were fucking making some fucking fondant fucking potatoes

[taiki1994]

any potato fried/cooked in oil tastes good

[MrNoel95]

what it make ?? 1:30

[infernorock11]

ok what the fuck is the name that plant he put on the patateos. i cant understand his accent xD

[gobipill]

@infernorock11 Thyme, pronounced "time". Strange. O__O

[infernorock11]

@gobipill thanks bro

[6952725]

@infernorock11

You need to get out more if you cannot recognize thyme.

Something else your swear tells lots...

[infernorock11]

@6952725 Your judging people through a laptop on youtube tells a lot more...

[6952725]

@infernorock11 people writing swear words should be forbidden to participate in the comments. Something else, spelling mistakes are to be corrected prior to posting.

As to the accent, I do not stumble on Ramsay's accent. You do. That tells me surely lots.

Get out of this forum if you are totally clueless about everything...

[glassbrain]

@6952725 You sound like a pompous twat. Swearing is perfectly acceptable, and it's the internet, not your bloody phd, so don't chastise someone for mistakes. Sigh

[6952725]

@glassbrain What is the fucking bullshit about acceptable swearing on the internet?

Where the fuck did you get this goddam mentality?

Fucken low life pofg...

[infernorock11]

@6952725 Now your a hypocrite for talking shit about swearing when you just did

[snowblazer12]

@6952725 i never encourage censorship you dumb twat

[theexelentsone]

but, will it blend

[penny0102]

Oily ~ BUTＩLOVEＩＴ！

[Gothos]

what's that branch of green stuff he puts in as a 'chef secret'? can't hear...

[ThePilbaraPrince]

@Gothos Thyme

[Gothos]

@ThePilbaraPrince thanks, mon!

[Spaton484]

@optiKalismo Please stop looking for an argument from people, they were only adding additional information! Why did this bother you so much??

[radoslavnikolaev]

a lot of cooking for two potatoes ... not worth it

[Jsqaured]

@radoslavnikolaev A lot of cooking? He seared the top and then stuck them in the oven for 15 minutes. Its taken me longer to bake a potatoe.

[starryknight]

@radoslavnikolaev

Are you serious? All he did was sear them, add a few things, and throw them in the oven.

I respectfully think you need to rethink your definition of "a lot".

[YogDodoth]

@radoslavnikolaev

buy a bag of cheetos

open

done

[1overthehillsfaraway]

@radoslavnikolaev how do you cook potatoes.. just stab with knife and throw in the microwave more then likely i bet.

[Numeronx]

@1overthehillsfaraway wrong you ATTACK it with a katana, then into a microwave

[78kokka]

Can he and/or the camera stay still for 10 seconds? @_@

[thufaith7]

Yummmm

[GladRichGirl]

Fondant potatoes DONE

[TheIrishEnigma]

Never noticed him using a santoku before, always thought he was a bit elitist with the traditional French knife.

[BadAssDrummer01]

Everytime I watch anything with Ramsay I feel like less of a man

[yihanglee]

he didn't burn his tongue after eating that potato straight out of the oven???

[Bashnutter]

fondant doesn't mean cooked in stock... it's "melting"

[rabbitphobia]

The man can cook.

[tdylan]

I received 3 of his cookbooks as a birthday gift. 1 of them has his recipe for fondant potatoes, and it's slightly different from the way he prepares it here: In the book, he adds the potatoes to the stock and has them simmer on the stove top, NOT in the oven. You then remove them from the stock, drain them, and color them on BOTH sides, not just the flat side. I guess the version seen here was a more simple one for the tv show with folks cooking at home. The show is called "Cook along."

[belindabell2]

Delicious potatoes, funny remarks. Thanks for the laugh!

[kuniko7]

For the Americans who aren't sure, 200 C = 400 F.

[CornDoctor]

@kuniko7 thanks non-american... we dumb americans sure dont know math good :))))

[kuniko7]

@CornDoctor Errr, I am American. Last I checked, anyway! :-D

[optiKalismo]

@CornDoctor ...he/she didn't know math "good" because 200 C = 392 F

[CornDoctor]

@optiKalismo thanks. can your oven heat up to exactly 392?

[kuniko7]

@CornDoctor Thank you, CornDoctor :-) 

[optiKalismo]

@CornDoctor ...actually one WOULD be able to heat their oven to 392 exactly on an oven with a digital system instead of a dial...even with a dial one would still be able to turn the knob just shy of 400 thus achieving the desired 392, or at least getting very close to it

[CornDoctor]

@optiKalismo this is really gratuitous...

[optiKalismo]

@kuniko7 ....uhhhh it's 392....... F = (C x 9) / 5 + 32....you might as well give the correct information if you're going to say something like that

[kuniko7]

@optiKalismo -- American ovens are not that exact. Most have dials marked or have digital controls that can be set at 25 degree increments, per standard American cooking instructions. This is a kitchen appliance in use, not a lab instrument. So tell me, is 392 closer to 375 or to 400?

Also, I'm a "she". A "she" who uses an oven.

[optiKalismo]

@kuniko7 i acknowledged that you could have been a "she"----> "he/she"...and also just because the knobs are in 25 degree increments does not mean you have to cook everything base 25....and some people have digital ovens.....anyways u didn't have to leave that snooty comment about "the american's who aren't sure"...bla bla bla...u sounded like a posh brit leaving that comment...people know what he means...who would think he meant 200 F??? water doesn't even boil at that temperature

[kuniko7]

@optiKalismo So you object to my clarifying my gender since you weren't sure? And you also dislike that I, in the spirit of helpfulness to my fellow centigrade-impaired Americans offered a tiny bit of advice to make this recipe "translate" to American kitchens? Yes, some people have digital ovens, but most do not.

I think you have a giant chip on your shoulder, and because I'm American, I don't mean a deep fried potato. IGNORING any future replies from you.

[optiKalismo]

@kuniko7 oh please, i was just pointing out that people aren't that dumb...there is always a few people online that choose to take it upon themselves to "inform" the masses as if they are all clueless, you're a lil too over zealous with this, whatever, smh

[chefbabyryan1]

I thought this video was a how to fondle potatoes

[TelegramSam59]

@chefbabyryan1 LOL

[reginaDeviant]

@chefbabyryan1 Bahahahahahahaaaaa!!!!! Good one!!! Like it!!! Bahahahahahahahaaaa!!

[whitehawk38]

season to ramsey: salt and pepper.

season in india: 10 different spices >:D

[mobspeak]

I wonder what he charges for a potato.

[0inkypig]

Its only delicious. not fucking delicious!

[Ramsez]

waaay too fucking greasy

[armyasis]

did he boil the potatoes?

[josealvarado37]

@armyasis of course not, otherwise it will break

[msleehom]

hmm delicious!

[googo151]

Gordon's just a fucking genius chef! 

[fafmouser]

Good recipe by Ramsey, but I think the potatoes taste better when you cut them junk and beak em' up a little bit more and you get more caramelization and compounded flavors. Onions work great wish the dish too!

[raghavmc]

@fafmouser dude, what are those leaves he added at 1:23 ?

[ZildjianGretsch]

@raghavmc

thyme

[raghavmc]

@ZildjianGretsch  Thanks !

[shoomaild]

@raghavmc thyme, its a fragrant herb

[raghavmc]

@shoomaild Thanks :)



[peeweesherman]

Rissole potatoes are the cats pajamas as well. So easy, just cut the taters into small cubes, heat a GOOD amount of oil in a saute pan, make sure you season the dildo juice out of the tater cubes, then brown one side of each cube then just toss..baste if desired and do not burn .Season to taste while hot, food absorbs seasoning better when oil is still hot on the product. This is not spam either i dont think.

[bigj2637]

thumbs up if you see a penis head at 0:10

[bigj2637]

thumbs up if you see a penis head at 0:18 ^_^

[Christriker]

made them yesterday ... amazing!

[daveygravey123456]

i cancount to potatoe

[yoshiy3k]

A fondant potato is defined by it's cutting technique. Fondant is the biggest of the tourned potato. Tourné is the process of turning a vegetable into a barrel shape with seven even sides, mainly done to promote even cooking. Chateau potatoes are a smaller version of the fondant, and tournéing can also be done with many other vegetables. The process of cooking a potato in the stock I believe is also part of the "fondant" method but the main component is the cutting aspect.

[robinpearlgirl]

@yoshiy3k - Agreed 

[golfmaniac007]

nobody says olive ole better than gordon

[chefkoo]

This isn't really fondant potatoes. This is called boulangere potato. Fondant potatoes aren't browned. They're cooked almost until almost falling apart and the left to cool down in the stock so it soaks it up. Boulangere potatoes is browned and cooked with meat juices or stock if you're not doing a whole roast.

[aaronfitz]

@chefkoo

No these really are fondant potatoes, boulangere potatoes are sliced, browned, layered with onions and cooked with butter and stock or at least according to the LaRousse Gastronomique, Practical professional cookery and michelin starred chef Gordon Ramsay, which is good enough for me

[RickinHK]

@chefkoo Are you mad? Boulangere potatoes are sliced and roasted with stock and milk in a deep roasting tray with onions.

[tonyt0ny]

0:12 ass slap

[MrDp123abc]
