   @clew I'm not entirely sure what kind of dried herbs are readily available in UK supermarkets nor of the price of garlic and onion there, which are obviously constraints. But the recipes are downright weird, and could be made closer to the real deal by swapping some out-of-place ingredients with an onion and some herbes de Provence or approximation thereof (shouldn't be harder to find than ready-made tzatziki ?). I'd be less annoyed if they were called "Mediterranean-inspired" I think.

     @krazykitty @clew haha, I don’t even think he does British food well. Delia Smith or Nigel Slater are pretty good

     Jamie’s stuff is.. kind of basic and not in a good way

     @skinnylatte Until now I would just shrug and say "eh, British cuisine, amirite" in a snobbish French way @clew

     @krazykitty @clew oh recently he was involved in a children’s book in Australia that had some terrible things to say about Indigenous people there!

     @skinnylatte aren't there a number of scandals around him for culinary appropriation, stereotyping and other things much more harmful than putting a camember in stuffed cabbage? @clew
