Brooklyn Beckham is blasted for his 'basic' cooking skills as fans accuse him of 'messing about' with his ingredients while making a Guinness and beer stew

Brooklyn Beckham's cooking skills once again came under scrutiny on Wednesday, as fans accused him of 'messing about' with his ingredients while making a Guinness and beer stew.

The budding chef, 27, has shared a string of social media videos displaying how he makes a variety of dishes.

But Brooklyn's latest video sparked complaints from fans as they claimed he was overdressing a 'basic' recipe.

The clip showed Brooklyn chopping up the meat and vegetables and throwing them into a saucepan, before cooking the potatoes in a separate pot.

In the comments, one fan noted that the process featured too much 'messing about', and said the whole dish could have been made in a slow cooker.

They said: 'No idea why I watch these. They're so basic and boring a child could do a better job! @beanything25 looking forward to your hilarious take!'

'Why make it hard for yourself? All ingredients in the slow cooker... make mash potato and Job's a goodun... all this faffing about with ingredients isn't necessary...'

'Very basic cooking, not a chef. A cook.'

Brooklyn had previously hit back at users who were keen to criticise his cooking, and did just that under a post of him making a pasta dish over the weekend.

Some of his followers weren't convinced by his version of the meal, as they claimed it looked 'vile' and even called him a 'spaghetti murderer'.

He then responded in the comments with a meme from the sitcom Friends, showing Ross Geller doing the 'friendly middle finger' – which is considered a more polite version of the rude gesture. 

He also took to his Story to say: 'For all the lovely comments about me always burning my food, this pasta is supposed to be burnt sooooooo.' 

Some fans backed him up on this in the comments by pointing out that the correct way to make it is by adding the dry spaghetti directly into the pan to give it a charred taste.

But other angry commenters penned: 'This looks… in a word – vile. It's not even cooked properly,' 'Where is the REAL tomato sauce', 'Basically burnt pasta with jar sauce'.

'This is not al dente, but al hammer', 'That's how Meghan Markle makes her pasta dishes – a lazy way of cooking', 'A tube of paste, a jar of sauce, ready prepped garlic. That's not real cooking oh and the spaghetti looks half cooked. No thanks.'

'The Spaghetti Murderer is the right name.'

However, those defending him wrote: 'Not gonna lie Brooklyn, that looks damn tasty.'

'Interesting how many people criticise Brooklyn but still take the time out to watch his videos. Go Brooklyn.'

'It looks delish. Heck w the haters/food snobs. loved watching you cook and I'll give this one a try.'

Plenty of Brooklyn's cooking videos are met with criticism, including one earlier this summer where he made a protein pizza using his own hot sauce brand, Cloud 23.

He also faced backlash earlier that month after he horrified fans by cooking a pasta dish using seawater during his stay on a luxury yacht.

The clip, which was originally shared last year, was reposted to TikTok on August 8. 

It caused immediate controversy as followers watched the eldest Beckham son dip his saucepan in the sea to collect salty water to boil the pasta.

It seems Brooklyn may have been trying to trump his estranged father David, who is also passionate about cooking and even completed a culinary course during his spell at AC Milan.

Sir David told The Times back in 2013: 'Funnily enough, when I lived in Italy, I took a six-month culinary course at a professional chef's school and learnt to make real ragu and fresh pasta.

'I used to go there three times a week... I was obsessed with perfecting the risotto because it is difficult.'

However Brooklyn hasn't been seen with his parents – or his siblings Cruz, Romeo and Harper – ever since January, when he released a scathing statement about them and accused the pair of trying to ruin his wedding to Nicola Peltz and control him for the sake of 'brand Beckham'.
