  1. 0:20Toast sesame seeds in a dry pan until lightly golden and fragrant.
  2. 0:53Dry-fry sliced shiitake mushrooms before browning bone-in chicken pieces with carrots.
  3. 3:03Add spring onions, mushrooms, silken tofu, sriracha, soy sauce and kale to the simmering stock.
  4. 3:45Cook wholemeal noodles separately, then toss them with sesame oil and toasted sesame seeds.
  5. 3:54Lower the heat before adding chopped homemade kimchi, then finish the dish with sesame seeds and lime.

Jamie Oliver dry-fries shiitake mushrooms before the broth even gets going. That little preparation step sets up his Korean-style chicken hotpot, inspired by a trip to Jeju Island, with bone-in chicken thighs, carrots and silken tofu joining the pan.

The noodles cook separately, then get tossed with sesame oil and toasted sesame seeds. Homemade kimchi goes into the pot toward the end, after Jamie lowers the heat. At roughly 80,000 views, "Comforting Korean Style Chicken Hotpot | Jamie Oliver" is the week's most-watched new upload. In the comments, the ingredient choices give people something specific to discuss: some suggest gochujang, while others ask about dried mushrooms or a substitute for tofu.

Chicken had quite a week elsewhere on the channel, too. "Roast Chicken 7 Ways! Jamie Oliver" stretches from a Margherita pizza-inspired version to a bird baked inside a salt pastry crust. Meanwhile, Dani B's Tuesday 20 attempt turns a mayonnaise jar into a rolling pin for pan-fried pizza. A separate teaser gives artist Temi Danso a different assignment: turn a recipe into art against the clock.

Across the channel, viewing stayed a little above its usual daily pace, bringing about 2.3 million views over the week, while the subscriber total held steady. Among similarly sized food channels, Nick's Kitchen had a particularly substantial week of subscriber growth; Epicurious, like Jamie, had no net subscriber change.

The strongest daily momentum belongs to the slightly older "Butternut Squash Ideas & Recipes | Jamie Oliver," whose menu runs from cupcakes to squash-and-spinach rotolo. The new pumpkin collection extends that seasonal kitchen, with Gennaro Contaldo contributing pumpkin lasagna and risotto.
