... And you thought we'd forgotten about this series!! What other video series are you waiting for us to bring back?!?!

I used to watch you guys religiously for years, but then developed an eating disorder and had to cut down on watching food content for quite some time. Fortunately I’m finally in a point where I can say I’ve recovered, and I’m back to waiting for the channels notifications + watching allll the videos I missed during my off-time! Thanks guys for cheering me up and continuing to make amazing videos

Being Indonesian, I've now realized that we do have our own scotch egg, thanks Jamie 🤣

RIP the Ginger Era (3rd - 28th April '24). We will never forget you.

The moment Ebbers understands how to use the egg, you can see his eyes light up and he dashes to try it. That is so fricking wholesome, and honestly a perfect example of why I watch you guys: genuine love for food and love of exploration. It would have been the easiest thing in the world to lose that in the hubbub of video production and KZfaq necessities, but you guys have kept it alive all these years. Love this series and this channel!

It's always nice to watch Ben flex his knowledge muscles. He is so on point throughout these episodes

As an Indonesian, ebbers are scarily good at making pempek from the ingredients alone! Good job guys

Yay ꤶꥉꤸ꥓ꤶꥉꤰ꥓ (pempek) 🇮🇩 ! 👍 Ebbers, you’re spot on. Apparently, real _pempek_ from Palembang were not supposed to be fried but then when the dish was spread across Indonesia, those who are not from South Sumatra preferred the fish cakes to be fried. The rest of the country also like to submerge the fish cakes in the sauce, but originally they were only for dipping. We outsiders also like to add noodles to make it more filling, but according to the people of Palembang, that would effectively turn it into a completely different dish. People from South Sumatra would always roll their eyes whenever they see how the rest of the country eat _pempek_ so adaptations have always been the name of the game. So all things considered, you guys did great! 👏

I don't think I ever seen foreigners cooking pempek and its cuka sauce before. I'm not from Palembang but thank you for cooking these! What I love about this is that Ben was able to guess the way pempek is made and Jamie described pempek kapal selam as scotch egg, which is clever. Thank you guys once again, I hope you can visit Indonesia one day❤

OMG yes... this is one of my favorite formats... So happy to see this back!

I'm from the region! the name is slightly off, it is Pempek Kapal Selam, 'Kapal Selam' being 'diving ship' aka 'submarine'. I'm screaming at the comment of 'Indonesian Scotch Egg' because it kinda is and now I can't see pempek the same way again. While it's obviously not the same as the ones we have, given the circumstances, I'd say it's not bad and I would definitely wanna give this version a taste haha

10:08 lmao Jamie saying "Eggers" instead of Ebbers had me laughing pretty good. I love the mystery dish challenge and Indonesian style cooking is one of my favorites!

The fact that you upload this on the day Indonesia fail to reach the AFC U23 Finals against Uzbekistan gives me my patriotism nationalism as an Indonesian to be proud for our achievement just as how we should be proud for your attempt to make an Indonesian cuisine.

Ooo finally, an Arab nation! Living in Saudi, I grew up around quite a few Jordanians and Palestineans, and the one dish they loved above anything else was mansaf. It's a lamb dish served on a bed of rice, with the lamb being usually cooked over a long period of time in jameed (it's like a yogurt). It's so good, and definitely what I'd recommend if you'd want to do a traditional Jordanian dish. However, Levantine cuisine kind of blends into one another, so if you just want to go with something iconic and truly Levantine rather than just something that's super Jordanian, then I'd definitely recommend either bamia or molokhiyyah. They're unlike almost anything else, and are the two dishes your parents would make for you all the time (whether you liked it or not).

I did think this was abandoned. I’m so glad it’s back!

Just fyi, in pempek, we dont put chili or garlic in the fish cake itself. Spices would be in the cuko sauce. Theres a saying if you eat pempek, if the cuko isnt make you sweat, its not real pempek. Here, theres even a sambal to combine with the spicy cuko. So you lack spicy thing a whole lot. But its a good try. Good job lads

"little bit of egg, little bit of egg, not too much egg, little bit of egg" great internal monologue for reference when cooking and possibly a great club mix one day

I love the random mentions and flashbacks to “The Paella Burrito”. You can always see Jamie panic or smirk a little bit😂

That scotch egg analogy actually blew my mind since when I stop and think about it, it is basically egg covered with meat mixture. Also pempek can be made using any part of fish (and no fish at all). My favorite would be the one made from fish skin since it's verrry crispy when fried

Guys, this is scarily close to what I always eat whenever I am back home in Indonesia. Only the pempek cuko (read: choo-ko) is still a bit brown-ish and needs to be developed a little bit darker (also it should be a bit spicy and has got a kick to it). About kapal selam, imagine if the egg is the contents of a submarine, hence why it is called "kapal selam", which literally translates to English as "submarine". What a video and I've been waiting for a long time for this one!

Whenever I don't know what to do with myself, I come to this channel. I've followed many food channels over the years and got bored with most of them after a while, but here I watch every single video and binge watch older stuff when I have time. It's just the perfect mix of education, deliciousness, fun, friemdship and chaos. Thank you guys for your great work! ❤

Jamie's face when Ebbers asks if this dish is as protected as a dish from... say... "Valencia". 6:10 I can feel Jamie's unsease through the camera.

Cried because you guys introduced and cooked something from my hometown 😭😭 You should go to this coffee shop called "Ngopi" in Dalston btw, they sell pretty authentic Pempek!!!

Ah I noticed a lack of Ben, I know this probably was filmed a while ago but it's nice to see him again!

Ben knowledge IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL i mean i know he's a chef but dammit the reasoning is spot on 🔥🔥

Finally, a dish from my home country Indonesia. Congratulations guys for making Pempek, cause that's a really difficult thing to make. It has simple ingredients but needs fine tune skills to make that into a perfect dish. If you want to explore another dish that uses Tapioka flour, you can search for Indonesian street food like Cireng, Cilok, Cimol, Bakso Goreng, etc. There are a lot of dishes that use Tapioka as the main ingredient.

As an Indonesian who’s been watching you for the last 7 years, and now living in the UK, this is a great deal. Well done and thanks a lot guys!

Very excited to see that Jordan is up next! I'm not from anywhere around there, but I go to Jordan all the time for work, and you guys could attempt the undisputed national dish, Mansaf. As a vegetarian I've never actually had it myself but of course I've seen it around everywhere and know a bit about the dish, so would be interesting to see you make it!

So glad to see Ebbers back in a video. Sorted without him for too long is like a dish without enough seasoning, it's ok but it's not perfect 🥰

The little dance Jamie did with "we've got a cross section" had me lose my mind laughing and I don't know why

Welcome back, Ben - it’s never the same without you ❤

So glad you've brought this series back. Fascinated to see what dish comes from the next episode.

Happy these series are back, as I'm someone who likes to get inspired by other cuisines. For Jordan the most obvious would be Mansaf, while delicious and unique to Jordan, not sure if it would be that challenging and fun content wise, so I would suggest Makmoura or Rashouf. There are many other dishes, but usually shared across the region as most of the dishes around here. Good Luck and looking forward to the next episode

So happy this series is back! For Jordan you have to make Mansaf, it is a labor of love but super delicious

Yayyyy! Jordan, I am so glad that you finally get to experience more dishes from the Middle East, definitely looking forward to that video 🥳😊

Please never stop this series. I love it so much!

So glad to see Ebbers back!! 💕

My sis and I were just talking about how much we wish there were more episodes in this series, so thanks Sorted team for bringing it back! Love learning more about other cultures and their cuisines!❤

Yeahhh, Mike obliterated all those words 😂

So glad this was finally posted! I lived in Indonesia for almost a decade and pempek is delicious! As you said, it's quite popular and can be found throughout the country despite its origins in Palembang. Quick correction for Mike, the letter 'c' always makes a 'ch' sound, so 'cuko' is pronounced CHOO-ko. The word means vinegar :)

This was wonderful. I loved that this dish was so specific to a place. I would dig more super specific dishes like this. Thanks for the amazing amount of content the team puts out! We really appreciate it!

I just love that the wheel is landing on such interesting places, instead of all places that we are already more familiar with their food!! Looking forward to learning more about Jordan!!

Happy to see this is back. Was excited to see what you chose for my second home, and this really was a great choice. You didn’t go down the obvious, celeb-chef routes and put yourselves out there to research a dish not many outside of the country would have known. Amazing.

Thanks for continuing the series! It's my favorite by far :)

I’m so glad this is back!!! These are some of my favorite formats! I love seeing different food from around the world! And I love watching the process and hearing about the history and techniques and cultures. These are some of the most educational, funny and enriching videos the team does and I hope you continue them!

Absolutely love love lovee this series! As someone from Indonesia it's always a treat to see other people try out our cuisine. You guys definitely killed this, great job!

FINALLY IT'S BACK!!! Been waiting for this one

Always love these! Keep up the great work, guys. Stellar stuff as always.

Jordan! Well, Mansaf is my favorite....though, plenty of amazing dishes to choose from

Now this is what 10,000+ hours can do to you! Ebbers is an absolute master at work! His knowledge is just incredible!!

I am thrilled to see this series back! Like others in the comments I too was gutted thinking it had been abandoned - so glad to see you continue it.

Im so excited to see this back. Every episode im seeing something new in the kitchen. Cant wait to see what comes out of Jordan, and would love to see this make it all the way to Z

Yes! This was one of my fav series! Love to see it back!

The fact you can trace back the origin of a dish to a CITY is FASCINATING

I love this format!! And I love that Ebbera can flex his vast knowledge 😊❤

Finally!!! I’ve been singing Indonesia’s national anthem thousands of times waiting for this episode ❤❤❤ For someone who’s never even heard of pempek before, Ben’s quite bang on! So proud of you! Also for being honest, I skipped the video to when they attempted to pour raw egg into the dough the moment Mike said they will be making pempek kapal selam 😂 Just really curious and I couldn’t wait 😂 Great work, guys!! I hope you all can visit Indonesia to try the real deal~

Forgot about this series. Used to live near Indonesia and so visited a few times as a child. Excited to hopefully have some memories evoked.

Oh wow, that dish is super interesting and it seems not too difficult to make a batch of the dough, form it, and freeze it for snacks. I think that’s going to be my snack of choice for May! ❤

FINALLY!! I’ve been waiting for this!

Seeing challenges like this and pass it ons are what us oldies love. Brings back memories of the original kitchen all them years ago !

Love your videos. Helped me going through rough times. I was binge watching them at some point. Ebbers , what a chef ❤❤❤ and all of you are great of course 😊 thank you

i LOVE that you chose a more “unconventional” dish when international people talked about *indonesian dish*! (as opposed to like the classic nasi goreng and stuffs). cant wait to see the jordanian dish!💜

I’m absolutely loving this series and can’t wait to find out the results in this episode. Wondering what the Indonesian mother of my brother-in-law will think of this. 🤔

I was wondering when this was going to come back! So happy to see it!

I advise you to make Makmoura from Jordan!! Really tasty! ❤️

Here's an idea. (maybe for Season 2 of A-Z) - try to get someone FROM that country (familiar with the dish) in the studio, to judge how close you got the flavor :)

Great effort from Ben and Jamie! Really appreciate that you heard most of our inputs to avoid the "more well-known" rendang and nasi goreng. FYI, "Gepeng" means 'flattened', "Kapal Selam" means 'submarine' (lit. 'diving boat') which implies that version to have a filling, and "Kuah Cuko" kind of means 'vinegar broth'. Personally, I grow up with the sauce being poured over the pempek, so the "kapal selam" one kind of swims in the sauce.

French-Jordanian here ! I suggest Mansaf for the Jordanian dish, it is the most iconic dish of the country 🇯🇴🇯🇴🇯🇴

Yeeesssss I’ve been waiting for this format to come back!

SO HAPPY TO SEE THIS AGAIN! This series gives me joy of unmatched proportions mostly because I can show off my geography skills to myself…looking at a screen.

So glad to see this series come back, even if it was a hell of a wait! Keep it going, boys!

Awesome series, love seeing your take on regional dishes!

I looooove these videos. You guys do such an amazing job of being incredibly entertaining while also teaching about different cultures and foods!

Love this format boys! Can't wait for the next one

Nice to see Ben doing what Ben does. Every now and then we need to be reminded just what an excellent chef the man is!

Its been so long I forgot about these. Glad they're back.

SO happy this series is back You guys are one of the few big creators who actually listen to the fans and respond to comments. Legends!

Oh my goodness! Thank you for doing a global food challenge episode! It’s been a while since you’ve done one of these and I was hoping you all hadn’t decided to end the series. ☺️

Omg finally! I hoped you hadn't forgotten about this series it is so good!

I've missed this series so much!!!

omg jordan! There's a meal coined by Jordanians using a type of "yoghurt" that's not available anywhere else but that region of the middle East. The meal is called "Mansaf" and it is done using the yoghurt called "jameed", rice, and bread that's called "shraak/shrak". I really hope you get to try it with the unique blend of spices that's used in the region and the authentic flavor of it. Excited for that upcoming episode! Take care :)

OMG I have been watching Sorted since I was fourteen (I'm twenty-five now) and this video just makes me so happy! Fun fact: one of my older comments made it to your Fridge Cam episodes!

I absolutely love this series!!

Been waiting for this. Thank you for celebrating Indonesian food.

I’m so excited for a video on Jordan! I absolutely love getting to learn about the cuisine of countries that I’ve never been able to visit.

Ooh, yay. I love this series

I love the series I've been watching yall for almost two years now and this is one of the best series y'all do other than unplanned battles of course I would love to see y'all do a unplanned American catfish battle

I love these and the global street food shows

A legendary Jordanian dish is Mansaf - lamb cooked in ground up, reconstituted, dried yoghurt called "jameed" (جَميد) served on top of rice.

Im so happy the next one is Jordan! I know Japanese food: sushi, teriyaki, ramen, etc, and I sort of know Jamaican food with things like jerk seasoning and beef patties. I know nothing about Jordanian outside of that it is probably similar to food in neighboring countries.

Finally!!! These immediately became my favorite videos!!!! As a danish person, I do wish you'd have a little re-do of that one, though....

Really fascinating to me, how Ben highlighted that something like Soy Sauce seems to be missing from the Cuko sauce. Traditionally, one of the main ingredients in Cuko sauce is dried shrimps. When cooked with the sauce, it will release a unique umami and savoury flavour to the sauce. Ben’s line of thinking was really shocking to me, for perhaps he sensed that the thing missing from this sauce is something umami, which will harmonize the flavours of the ingredients within the sauce.

The best series!!!!!

Brooo, i was so happy that you guys made this, even tho names are not mentioned inside of the video, i’m happy that my recommendation got into your video.

My aunt usually filled the pempek with moringa leaves. IT'S DELICIOUS. Thank you for making this!

I've been learning Indonesian for a while and have been wanting to cook some dishes. This came at the perfect time!

My fav series!

Putting all the good energy out there & in advance for Nigeria being letter N 😂🤞🏾🤞🏾

So glad you guys brought this back!! I’ve been waiting for the rest of the alphabet ☺️

I love this series, I wish they came out more often, but hey I will take what I can get
