Sunday Dinner Alternative Ideas | Jamie Oliver
What goes on the table when you want a Sunday dinner but not a roast? Jamie Oliver's answer stretches from sausage and butternut squash chili to mozzarella-stuffed meatloaf, with veggie shepherd's pie and a family curry along the way.
"Sunday Dinner Alternative Ideas | Jamie Oliver" was the biggest new draw among eight uploads, reaching about 72,000 views. It also carries the channel's strongest daily momentum, followed closely by the new butternut squash collection. In the comments, one viewer recalls the comfort of Jamie's lockdown videos; another gets very specific about appreciating peeled squash. Even a big dinner collection can come down to a small kitchen preference.
The roast hasn't been banished entirely. "Perfect Roast Potato Recipes & Ideas | Jamie Oliver" covers parboiling, roughing up the surfaces and using a masher for extra crunch, with Buddy and Petal joining the Hasselback section. Elsewhere, Bart van Olphen makes a smoked-salmon-and-potato-rosti brunch with Jamie, while Chef Lucas Valls tackles salmon tacos from his Marseille home for The Tuesday 20. Corn salsa, chipotle slaw and avocado all have to fit into the timed assignment.
The subscriber count stayed unchanged, and daily views are running a little below their usual level. Nearby in food, Nick's Kitchen had a much larger viewing week and substantial subscriber growth. Jamie's own catalog added roughly 2.3 million views, with the earlier "Soup Recipes To Make This October | Jamie Oliver" continuing to draw attention through mushroom soup, ham-hock broth and freezer-vegetable minestrone.
