Throwdown with Bobby Flay Fish & chips Mat Arnfield Part 2

[seah2403]

I'm getting hungry just by watching it

[MoustacheCloud]

miriam:i think with fish and chips you want them thin and crisp

me: *shakes head

[bludika]

@MoustacheCloud lol yea, wtf are they thinking, they don't even know the bare basics of fish and chips

[percboy93]

what water did Mat use?

[MrFloppywaffles]

It seems a bit cruel to strut into a restaraunt that has been in their family for years and just make their signature dish only to have their customers say that you did better .

[foodparadisetv]

Love your vid! Look at you. That's really amazing! Let's stay in touch. Let's stay in touch! Check me out sometimes too!

[NZsquadron]

what makes him think in anyway that if hes not up to the challenge and cant try frying english chips then dont make the video cos you will lose hands down to fish n chips then fish n fries!

[76carmel]

Bobby, hate to say this, but Miriam & Stephanie are right. I think adding eggs will make the batter a little too rich.

[ahaliman]

regular thin fries? what a dumbshit

[mikedelpiero9]

is it just me but doesnt bobbly flay and "E" from entourage sound and look the same?

[bumbubbler]

Any half-assed chef knows that the yolk ruins whipped eggwhites.

Not to mention the millions of other things that Bobby Flay never gets right. What a fucking overrated American joke.

[winnryax]

the host is an ass 

[shoaibsim]

agreeing with @jimmychiffels

[sidecrank]

The best fish and chips in the world come from Palmers,Bunford Yeovil Somerset,England.

[oaxacamexy]

bobby flay is such a cunt

[jstnhnh]

Some of these Brits need to chill out. Who knew that Americans had different taste than them?

[bryz2034]

that american chick is retarded, Chips are alot different the french fries... Thats why there called fish and CHIPS

[bordaz1]

@bryz2034 I'm American and i cannot figure out why anyone would ever want french fries over thicker chips with fish and chips

[darkkunoichininja]

lmao 2:53 "is size important ? " xD :3

[Devilsfan123]

Bobby doesn't seem arrogant at all...quite the opposite. British fags like Jamie Oliver = arrogant. English people are actually some of the most arrogant people I've ever encountered lol. They act like their country is so great when its murky, filled with fatty, artery cloggy food and just as many stupid people as any other country. They embarrass themselves with their anti American comments.

[saqibd123new]

i could probably get a good fish and chips here in london

but i feel like going all the way to USA just to see that guys shop and have some.

[brckshaw]

Tartare Sauce & Coleslaw?! Feek aff!

In Scotland in Glasgow we have Salt & Vinegar. Edinburgh - Salt & Special Broon Sauce. Both great. English have mushy peas. AMAZING. If yer gonnae dae something; do it right.

Regards,

Great Britain

[ppshchik]

@brckshaw Just came back from Scotland yesterday and loved the chippies there.

Does brown sauce = HP sauce?

[brckshaw]

@ppshchik

Aye mate. Although the east-coast folk tend to water it down with vinegar! It's nice!

Glad you enjoyed yer stay!

[ppshchik]

Real British fish and chips don't have tartar sauce imo

[Kitt3hCaT]

lmao all this talkin shit about bobby flay - if u guys hate him sooo much, lets see you cook like him - have ur own restaurants, and be an iron chef LOL. Just watch the dam episodes. ;)

[mpm1985]

@Kitt3hCaT I totally agree. People talk all this shit about Bobby Flay and say shit like "he is a douche" and the like. About 99% of the people who say that probably haven't even met him and only say that because a bunch of other fuckheads say it, so they automatically agree. If you haven't accomplished what Flay has, either STFU or put you money where your mouth is.

[rohit91]

[Degen223]

Brittish ftw.. America is bad.

[Devilsfan123]

@Degen223 -Eurofag. British people eat some of the shittest food around. Yes America is fat but come on...English fry ups, fish n chips, shepards pie, bangers n mash, shortbread....

Eat that shit and you'll be dead instantly...

[thehighlander1958]

The Brittish Way Is By Far The Best Way In Making Fish & Chips

[Deiija]

Who cares? it's just tasty :-)

[mako316]

good recipe but very unhealthy.

[fishandfestival]

Aren't fish and chips good for us if it's deep fried in good oil, like Canola, Peanut or Olive oil?

[wolfy9005]

Lol i'll apply for the position of Bobby Flay.

[anadryantontine]

This jerkoff graduated the Culinary Institute of America and he doesn't know that a batter is a DOUGH? What a fucking idiot.

[wolfy9005]

Haha your spot on.

And since when does something as precise as an awesome batter not need measurements :/

[ZMT77]

@anadryantontine hey i cant speak for everybody but New England has insanely good seafood...lobsters, blue lobsters, clams, scallops, shad. The cuisines of England and New England are similar in a bunch of ways.

[JimmyChiffels]

@anadryantontine batter is not dough. Batter is batter... u can't and don't bake batter.

it is more like baking than cooking when preparing

[neoquo]

cow jizz keeps my fish fluffy

[Umongaa]

food colouring? a good fish and chip shop in the uk doesnt use any ;p

[dedbusted]

"And their called french fries not chips here. "

Really? Even here, when they are served with fish they are called "chips." Have you ever ordered "fish and french fries" anywhere? I bet you haven't.

[wolfy9005]

Yeh, french fries are 3-5mm, chips are 10mm+

But bobby graduated some wacked school, so he should know this right?

[rxolsen]

@wolfy9005 That is still just a cultural difference because in the U.S. we call them French fries or steak fries regardless of the size. He isn't wrong, he just uses different words colloquially than you do in Great Britain. Also, the point is that he is not making traditional fish n chips. He is a Southwestern cook who takes on others in their specialties and tries to do it with a twist from his specialty so that it is not the same as his opponents or anything else that has been done.

[wolfy9005]

@rxolsen lol I totally forgot about this video. I'm not from Great Britain though :) Not even in the same hemisphere.

[lilbunnywabbitt]

@rxolsen I agree about the colloquiallism, but fish and chip shop "chips" are really unique and are nothing like "fries" or American steak fries. They are a bit softer but still crispy on the outside and a bit more dense. May have to do with the type of potato they use. I think they use Maris Piper potatoes in England for their chips. Whatever they use they are REALLY good with the fish! I will be in England in a month and I will definitely be having fish n chips for dinner that night :)

[encc007]

i want to make fish and chips so badly...i heard him say flour, food coloring (didn't specify what color), and seltzer water. what was in the pot when he added that flour? all of that couldn't have been seltzer water. did he use any beer at all, or was that plain water? he didn't season he fish either. whenever i'm in the village i walk past his shop but never go in...i'm going in now.

[MrFuckyoucunt]

You Idiot!

[TheOldEngland]

I made some batter using the same recipe as Mat Arnfield. I've tryed loads of different recipes in a quest to make the perfect fish batter. I was shocked. It was just as good if not better then chip shop batter. Get some plain flower, add fizzy water till it reaches the right consistancy and add a drop of yellow food colouring.

[khi195]

The American version of the fish and chips is ruining the classic.

[SpEeDFrEeK005]

@khi195 no its not but if you dont like it then thats why you could always eat the original

[nesgamergirl416]

Seltzer water is what Matt used :)

[annefrances]

what does Mat use in his batter instead of beer? i heard salsa water lol sorry i cant understand. :)

[annefrances]

oh was it soda water? please reply :D

[cricketlover1117]

seltzer water

[MilkLizurd]

I tried to make fish and chips tonight. Fucking disaster. I wanted long johns so I looked up a recipe, spent 20$ and it was the greasiest nasty garbage I've ever made. Know what you are doing when you try to make this.

[sjkdec18]

you needed the oil to be hotter before you put the fish in

[fishandfestival]

The Brits use mainly Cod, but pollock and other meaty fish are used as well, but Cod is the best fish by far...I love fish and chips!!!!

[qadsawe88]

what the kind of this fish ??

i mean the fish wich the british use in fish and chips ,,

[ff8123]

cod

[saint0304]

Purple's got a nice rack!

[fishandfestival]

Matt's fish and chips is the BEST!!!...The Brits know their fish and chips in the same way that Americans know their burgers...The best fish and chips cooks are British.

[PancakeRecipes]

lol were I get my french fries they are thicker then this dudes anyway. And their called french fries not chips here.

[eguiNicka7]

good love it

[Alex052480]

"IS SIZE IMPORTANT" !?? LOL...

[Bretty135]

Nobody can cook fish & chips like the brits!

[Drukstylz]

Dutch are pretty good as well

[meechellekimms]

i dont want to be negative or whatever but bobby always seems to loose in the episodes of throwdown..or atleast the ones that i have seen. but i love bobby flay, hes a great chef.

[MatthewPeaceman2008]

fuck you bobby flay you fuck

cod fish only

and that tartar sauce looks like shit

your recipes are too bizarre and complex

its like a shit flavored lollypop

[Alex052480]

I KNOW THAT PISSES ME OFF!!, HE ALWAYS GOTTA ADD HOT PEPPERS SPECIALLY POBLANO , AND HONEY, THAT FUCKS UP THE RECIPE, ITS LIKE SO UNECESSARY!, SPECIALLY ON THE TARTAR SAUCE!, why the hell would u add pepper on the tartar suace!, the sauce is suppose to be cool and refreshin !, not HOTT, AND HE IS COCKY, and lol HARD HEADED,he knows that making a batter is like baking but yet insist tha tis not, he tries to change traditional repices too much, thas why he looses 90% of these challenges

[MatthewPeaceman2008]

this guy is a bonehead

how is tartar sauce green

that shit is white and doesnt taste like chewing gum

[rasb5385]

why does he insist on adding some sort of pepper to the recipes? not everything needs ''southwestern flair''

[marshmallowpinksweet]

i adore bobby flay

and i totally agree hes a cutie rofl

=P

[Oceanographyy]

Well duh hes not gonna win EVERY throwdown, i mean he's challenging one of the BEST in the state, or even the country.

[canto39]

it would be really awkward if somebody turned down the challenge and completely refused to do it, haha.

[mykylenameishi]

hes sexy man

[clairabelle414]

bobby flay iss hottt!

[ValisFan1]

Assistant: Measure it,

Bobby: No

Assistant: Please

Bobby: NO!

[chewytoys]

Ches's Fish & Chips in St. John's, Newfoundland Canada is without a doubt the best anywhere on the planet. 2nd is Scampers, also in St. John's, Nfld. No argument.

[skinnerc06]

Bobby flay is a cock bag. in the intro to this show he says "i might even lose"... like, are we supposed to be surprised if the "incrdible bobby flay" loses. Not at all. Hes shit. I feel sorry for his coworkers having to put up with such a dry humored sack of shit. I hope he reads this too.

[PockemonFrance]

Dame bro you sound like someone who had worked for him and got fired....Lol Listen Bobby may sometimes sound a little bit cocky but Bottom line the man has made alot of money doing it his way. Like him or not he is a proven winner. He can't please everyone but I'm sure he's crying all the way to the bank. I hope you get to read this too. Just one final note : Bobby is one of our country's best chef's and is loved and respected by millions believe it or not If the kitchen is too hot then get out

[drumking89x]

yeah you retard

bobby flay is gonna go on youtube watch this video and be offended by a little faggot like yourself

[notarecordplayer]

this show is kinda silly. hes a professional chef on iron chef. i doubt he has that much trouble in real life.

[chowfon166]

macdonalds lmfao

[notarecordplayer]

he has an accent.. isnt that vierd?

[54spiritedwill54]

lol is size important

[lotusblack80]

HE HAS TO LOSE ALL OF HIS COMPETITIONS... he's not trying to humilate his guests, if u notice, im pretty sure his food tasted better on some of those throw downs but everyone of course is going to back up the local favorite

[pgfan92]

He won the mac& cheese throwdown, I know of a few others he won as well, but can't remember what they were.

[Strasburg1991]

pretzel boys

[Jameszhangdude]

He has won some competitions you know

[oneillbrown]

Bobby Flay has somehow gotten to where he is on, I don't know...the good looks he doesn't have, the charming personality he is lacking, or the cooking skills he has never aquired. His success baffles me.

[hedwig8141]

I really think it is sad that if Bobby loses all of the throwdowns that he is a moron, but if he wins all of them that he is arrogant and they are fixed. People need to get over it, I have never read a negative story from anyone he has challenged.....

[ICEGOD2]

Soda water in the batter is different. I use an ale myself.

[doubledeckertaco]

bobby flay is good because his arrogance is a bit he plays up. he also plays up a tough guy bit but in reality its all for show. he is entertaining and can cook so ;) better than rachey ray(barf)

[winningedge]

he's not funny at all! he's just like an ass. over-rated and not that good in cooking compared to other pro chefs

[SpikeJonze]

Why don't you all shutup and eat

[chefkoo]

boby's right. it's not like baking.

[monkeyman123321]

I dont know what you are talking about. Batter IS like baking. If you forget an active ingredant the batter will not fry the right way. So you need to treat it like baking if you want to make it good all the time. Nothing is worse then bad batter with fish'n chips. Bobby is not a guy to trust when it come to cooking food the right way.

[chefkoo]

who the hell gave me a thumbs down? anyways, with good grounding in the basics, you can rely on instinct to give you a good batter. trust me. and by the way. i hate bobby flay so i'm not agreeing with him for his star status.

[samoanXninja]

I GAVE U A THUMBS UP BRO!!

[chefkoo]

LOL you da man!!!

[denisefan]

This guy is so over-rated as a chef. I think it's because compare to other celebrity chefs, he's most "American-like". Been to his restaurants in NYC and Borgata AC, I will not eat his food again. Sorry.

[imwatersoluable]

i agree. bobby (better thank his lucky stars) flay is a worthless piece of shit as a "chef." he is pathetic. who the fuck gives a shit about "tex mex". lame.

[monkeyman123321]

Crude but true. I hate Bobby Flay too, saw him on Iron Chef Amr, I saw him make food in a skillet and he ran out of time and served from this big ugly skillet. Now the reviewers, as bias they are, said they like the presentation of the skillet. The stupid wanker just left didn't have time, cause of his poor time management, to plate his food and he get rewarded for it. Bobby won which was horrible, cause the other person food had good reviews.

[imwatersoluable]

LOL...v seen that one. were he presents in his busted ass skillet. omg, what a douche. i think he knows that he shouldnt b on that show. he loses like 30-40% of his battles! no wonder..

[XxBerixX]

okay, heres a little somthin you idiots should learn, 1. bobby flay likes challenges. 2. He challenges people of experties in a form of there own cooking, 3. he challenges the different kinds of food in which hes not good at so he can get better. learn to deal with it, hes funny,he likes challenges, not everyone can win u fucken morons

[SupraGrego]

You know, as much as I like Bobby Flay's food and previous programs like Hot Off The Grill (and yes I did travel from Houston to NYC last month to visit the Mesa Grill, and loved the food), where is the fairness of setting some other chef up like this, by lieing to them in some elaborate plan? I don't see the humor and it doesn't make me much of a fan of Bobby.  Makes me think more that he's am unfair dickhead...

[XxBerixX]

learn to deal with it bitch

[blkbombchelle]

Bobby flay is an arrogant, stupid, azzhole. He never wins these challenges, this show is a bad idea, how dare FOOD network try to put to shame a persons craft using arrogant bobby. Bobby can suck a dyck!

[XxBerixX]

WELL NO WONDER HW DOSENT WIN, HE CHALLENGES DIFFERENT PEOPLE AND THERE EXPERTS ON IT, HE PROB JUST STARTED ON IT -.- moron

[AgentCross420]

I like the show, but Flay is still way to arrogant. I mean the whole purpose of the show is that he is better then people doing it their whole life.

[stinkyparmesan]

I get what you're saying, but also I think the point of the show is to give seasoned professionals a little bit of fun and keep them on their toes a bit. I think if you've been an established expert at something for a while, it's nice to have a bit of competition.

[noimnothindu]

lol is size important

[EDAM2]

Im eating fish and chips right now :) The American guy is an idiot btw, really annoying.

[lootyx]

bobby sucks

[clyde815]

Bobby Flay is an assface!!!

[chloepraz]

Bobby, Bobby, Bobby, you just can't wrap your head around doing it the authentic British art of fish and chips can you? Your're so vain. Pass.....

[kookoocacapeepee]

his assistants are bitches

[jtheman20]

am i the only 1 who likes likes this show?

[yellowhitey]

LOL, i didn't know I was the only one who noticed how much of a f*cker Bobby Flay is, the guy seems to have issues he's holding in

[lubnaa]

what did matt say instead of beer we use ''....''?water.

[kidkanoo]

soda water

[lubnaa]

oh,thanks.I'll use that next time i make a batter

[stan30068]

Seltzer water

[blkbombchelle]

seltzer water, are you going to try and make it. I tried and failed miserably LOL

[lubnaa]

Yeah i tried it with soda water & cod and it's really awesome

[blkbombchelle]

please tell me the measurements you used? did you add vinegar to your batter as well? Hook me up with the recipe please. and let me plug in that I dont like bobby flay for insulting these peoples craft, WHAT A JERK!!!

[lubnaa]

you just make a very watery batter,like the constancy of a lotion or lighter and i just use lemon juice on top after its done, no vinegar. So its Flour,soda water,colouring(tumeric),the fish & lemons

[blkbombchelle]

Holy shyt I finally tried it and it was fuk'n awesome! My husband thought it was take out, I had to show him the left over fish grease in the pan and the lemon in trash and fish market packet for him to believe me thanks!

[meggiemeg86]

Yuck! Bobby Flay is an arse holio.
