Gordon Ramsay Thinks Everyone Needs To Eat These 5 Dishes

Gordon Ramsay answered quite a few questions in his most recent Reddit AMA. Y’know, the one where he says foam is one of the dumbest food trends around.

One question, asked by Reddit user Totoist, was:

In your opinion, what are 5 dishes that everyone needs to know how to cook?

Here was the world-famous chef’s response:

Burgers

Everyone enjoys a great burger, so that’s really important. You get that really smart blend. Burger would be number one.

Breakfast

A healthy breakfast. Whether it’s poached eggs, smashed avocado, or an amazing omelette. Now that is crucial! That’s dish number two a really good breakfast.

Something braised

Braised-Short-Rib-Stk-01

Number three would be a braising dish. Like a braised short rib because it’s the kind of thing you can cook on a Monday and still eat on Friday. So a braising dish, whether it’s braised short rib, tri-tip, just something really cool braised!

Something healthy

Then from a healthy point of view; a chicken dish, in terms of a white protein, would be a go to favorite with a chicken. Whether it’s a sauteed chicken or even a delicious marinade with chicken caesar salad.

Cake

Finally, for my fifth dish, I would turn that into some amazing cake. It could be a Blondie or a Chocolate Brownie, something you can give as a gift. Taking amazing deserts, as a gift, to somebody and eating it with them is so much more enjoyable then buying them a scarf, or a Jumper, or a pair of socks.

Spending three or four hours making this thing, and spending hundreds of dollars on ingredients, and doing something magical,is far more exciting then buying a fucking jumper that you know they aren’t going to wear!
