Nothing extraordinary about this dish at all, to be frank. I think the creator simply (a) got lucky with the algorithm or (b) "gamed" the algorithm 👎
Metal wisk in a non stick pan. She must have lots of money to keep buying new pans.
Hi Vincenzo – I love your channel and your passion you bring to Italian culture. I always trust what you say to do the recipes the right way.
Vincenzo, this is someone's homemade version of a pasta you can get from Domino's in India…. besides the pasta, i don't think there is really anything 'Italian' about this dish….. no point in saying "che cazzo fai, we do not do this way in Abruzzo or Napoli (or wherever)" …. just like the US, India also has its own versions of Chinese, Italian, Mexican and other int'l foods, which would be unrecognizable to people from those countries
I can’t remotely say this is a dish I would ever cook, boring as and technically all wrong as you noted Vincenzo. If it was Indian, I would have thought they might have added some Indian spices but then again, I can’t say I think of Indian food (which I do love) and Pasta in the same sentence.
There are hundreds of videos with Italian cooking, this is different.
One thing with having the sauce ready first, I understand why and it is exactly what I do for the same reasons you say in the video, but something to be aware of if you are cooking something that cooks faster than the pasta and you don't want to overcook (for example seafood or guanciale).
I learnt that when making a cherry tomato and prawn spagetti. I cut the tomatoes in half and planned on having them as their whole pieces, but they cooked so quickly the heat of the stove meant they started to break down. Not a problem with tomatoes and it may have been better or even the correct way to have them breaking down into a sauce – just a different result to what I had planned, but it would have been less ideal if the seafood overcooked. (I took the prawns out of the pan and kept to one side until the pasta was cooked).
You know how you said the veg ingredients were more Asian style…the maida flour used in the bechamel is a flour commonly found in South Asia. If that is where the channel owner is from, probably explain why they added the spicy kick to the sauce.
My guess is, the reason she cooked the pasta first instead of waiting until after cooking the sauce is because she used the same pot to cook each part of the dish. After cooking the pasta, she used the same pot for the sauce. I'm not sure what she saved herself by that. Sure, only one pot to wash, but it's not a big deal to clean one pot and one pan if doing it properly.

I don’t like heavy sauces. I like your cream less pasta recipes.
What a boring sauce! Why combine bechamel with peppers and corn of all things? She should have used cheese and spinach, or at least some nutmeg to flavor the bechamel sauce. I make a better sauce with stuff I always have in my fridge and freezer, no fresh ingredients required.
Who puts oil in the water to boil pasta?! This is the height of waste…
I think the viewers of this content are just simple. They want to cook easy. They want to learn easy, but the tradition and all the logic behind every dish.
So: Stay how you are Vincenzo, I learned so many things about cooking from you and still I didn't try eveything.
Thanks to you my bolognese and my carbonara reached different levels.
You do it right with everything ❤
I love the recipes you’ve posted so far. I agree. Keep the tradition going!
I love using leftover rotisserie chicken, or shrimp in that kind of pasta dish. Mine usually has onion, carrots, celery, garlic, mushrooms, corn or peas, or whatever veggie I have leftover in the fridge that need to be used up 🙂
I enjoy both styles of videos. it's relaxing to watch silent ones (or with minimal talking simply saying the ingredients), but also very entertaining to watch fully detailed ones with how-to's methods, or a quick history of the dish, mentioning possible variations, etc.
Wowwww!!!!
That's terrible…
Woah! 😲
Not pasta in a pan dish! 🙄
Wrong just wrong! 🤦🏽♀️
The pasta died a long time ago when making the sauce 😩
I usually don't like videos with no talking.
Its because its an Indian video. Mostly Indian people are watching, and they have a very large population. Less to do with no talking video.
All I have to say is why does this video have more views than yours 🤦♂
Amateur cooks who really want to learn appreciate the explanations lazy people want short-cut wrong recipes because they just don’t care 😢
I have a theory! It's an Indian youtuber, and they're trying to showcase Italian cuisine, adjusted to Indian preferences. I would probably take the views as people being curious about the Italian cuisine, and taking first steps to learn it.
Also, capsicum, carrots, and sweet corn, they're all "western imports", I'd consider it kinda like Western youtubers putting soy sauce in every asian dish, or putting ginger/garlic in every Indian dish.
India is a large country, I wouldn't read too much into the view count.
Love your content! I would love a spotlight on abruzzese recipes. I am american but my family is from Roccacasale!! Sadly a lot of the dishes I grew up eating have been lost since my Nonna passed 😢 And it is so hard to learn about abruzzi recipes in America.
It looks totally disgusting!
Oh, this is indian pasta. Be gentle, they gotta do what they gotta do. Although I drew the line at adding broccoli to my beloved penne all'arrabbiata. 😂 Kunal Kapur has some good recipes.
Hola buenas noches Woo excelente muchísimas gracias por tu explicarciones de paso a paso de maravillosos mundos de la pasta 🇩🇴🌹🍫🍫☕
Vincenzo I think you would be better served by researching into how the Youtube algorithm works, that video doesn't have the most view because it is the best, it just caught the right wind at the right time. Or this thing is rigged, and certain channels get certain special attention. Who is Youtube's CEO now? hmm..
I’ve never watched this pasta dish but I’ve watched lots of yours mate❤
You’re a real man. Learn from everything.
chef keep talking and explaining don't listen to them
It's popular because it's vegetarian/vegan (with the right ingredients on the latter). As sauces go, I'm sure it's not bad, and while ordinarily I'm among the first to advocate for innovation in the kitchen, I could defeat this sauce in my sleep.
Please do not stop talking to us. And do not get downhearted about the popularity of this video. Popularity on YouTube or contemporary/popular culture is meaningless. Maintain your standards.
This video does nothing more than cook something, which is not even interesting. No skills guidance, no insight, nothing. Anyone impressed by her video does not take cooking seriously.
I don't think that the silent video style is for you, because you usually try to explain the methods and techniques, alternative methods, ingredients, etc. while cooking, which I think is difficult to do with just a subtitle. Plus it's hard to follow a cooking video, where you are cooking and reading subtitles or watching the video at the same time. It's a lot better to cook and listen to instructions at the same time. Just try to maybe shorten the intro to each videos so that it would not take away too much screen time from the actual cooking.
Vincenzo, you definitely should do videos in which you don't talk. 🤐 Also, who is the cartoon character with all dark hair in your intro? 😄. Keep up the good work!
