I love garlic but I am allergic to butter, so there are others Marco. Maybe people dont Like parsley as I Can se you put in. Or maybe They are simple not that hungry today. I don’t know, maybe I should end this message.
The thought of a three-Michelin-starred chef going home and making mounds of mushrooms and cheese is hilarious and I love it.

What do you mean becoming? He already is!
When I was a little boy...my father would take me into the mountains...and we would hunt for the perfect Christmas Tree. He wouldn't chop it down with an axe, he would throw cheese at it. Generous amounts of butter, olive oil...and then we would walk home. It was as simple as that.

The amount of oil and fat is pretty horrendous. Throw your gall bladder into panic mode for no reason, as the deep umami is already there
So Marco just decided to wake up one morning and make a goddamn mushroom christmas tree, narrating the process like it's a porn film and casually flick it off to the BBC. I love watching this guy age so happily and not giving-a-fuck-ingly, he deserves it!
"A little oil" empties 1/4 of the bottle xD I love Marco.

A lot of people might be surprised at Marco for making a dish like this, but this is very like him. He likes dishes where you "construct" the plate yourself, i. e. quite literally play with your food.
I love how passionate he talks and how he kicks the oven shut...lovely...

This is the only convincing argument against legalising weed that I’ve ever seen.
Am I the only one who just listens to hear the crispy onions hitting the tray? And also to hear Marco say "There we are" over and over?
I *LOVE* how soft he speaks and then his finger snaps echo through the kitchen like a bolt of lightning.
Absolutely love the satisfying click of him closing that oven door... 6:38 👌🏻
I honestly don't give a damn what this man cooks, im watching him do it. Every. Time. 🍴
His whispering is intoxicating lol. He could explain changing a tyre and I would be entirely transfixed and entranced. And that garlic buttery, cheesy, herby mushroom tree doused in olive oil looks sublime
This man is a precious gift to the worlds of food, entertainment, and philosophy. A living legend.
can we take a second to appreciate that finger snap at 6:30?
He's mad. I'm in love with him.
Marco is like a real live One Pice character. Marco D. Pierre
Even the way he spoons the butter out of the pot is both precise and the movement of a man who, though calm, might chin you at any given moment. Legend
Atlast, a newest Marco cooking video released! We miss you! YASSS MARCO!
Aside for him being a great chef I love when he gets emotional about whatever he's talking about. I adore his passion for food.

I get the sense from Marco that since he's not in a restaurant night after night anymore he doesn't feel the need to be a psychotic hardass. Therefore, when he does videos like these he can relax and engage a lot more. I think he likes it. He's a much mellower man.
What an absolute perfection. No meat,but very tasty.
"Ahhh" *kicks oven door shut* _Classic_ Marco!
Opening the oven door gently and only to close it by kicking it shut like a gangsta 6:35
I love that he emphasises that cooking is not the slavish following of recipes but also the skill and creativity of the cook… Marco was a true master of cooking when he was younger but now he is a grand master. He transcended the flash and pomp and reduced cooking to what it truly is: sustenance, enjoyment, passion, life.
Absolutely beautiful Marco. One of my favourites.
The gentle squeaking sound of the knife cutting the mushrooms was unexpectedly satisfying
Every recipe from MPW that I've made so far has turned out delicious. This is probably the same. Very creative and beautiful presentation

The Marco youtube comment ecosystem has basically turned my brain into mush. I cant stop looking at his cooking videos and reading the comments. It's my choice really
Glad to see this, but I am not sure how to perceive this incarnation of Marco. He was always a maestro, no doubt, and always will be a master-the UK master, for sure. Young Marco was smoldering, combustible, and critical. Middle-aged Marco was haughty, bolstered by tradition, commanding and reserved. I like his current manner, but has he mellowed like a Jedi-master, or is this whispery, economical-dare I say encouraging-persona a conceit? As he tenderly builds a mushroom tree, I wonder.
This has all the ingredients I love. Thanks Chef Marco. Merry X-mas.
Never tire of watching and learning from this Man.
The amount of olive oil is... Not disappointing. Almost a whole bottle.

He reminds me of that painter ... "THERE ... that's where our mushroom lives ... let's give him a little friend ... THERE ..."
I've seen these maestro vids so many times I'm genuinely considering buying the course to listen to as I go to sleep
I enjoy how he has transformed into a cooking zen master
Never seems drop off the top... He's always at his peak. I love the guy he's just outstanding.
No way Marco wasn't trolling with this, this is absurd. Like it probably tastes nice but people are calling him a genius in the comments. He legit just stacked mushrooms and cheese together.
This is comedy gold with amazing cooking skills, all in one
This whole video had me in giggles. Marco is a legend.

I wish anyone whispered to me the way he does to the mushrooms But that’s his choice
0:59 What i especially like about Marco Pierre White are these subtle Seinfeld references he drops now and then.
first time i've ever seen Marco use tongs and not his bare hands
Marco is a legend!
The way he kicks his oven door shut after pulling out ...that. absolutely got me howling
Marco you’re MAD! Genius!
I want "Time to dress the most magical Christmas Tree... Garlic butter." On a shirt.
And just like a gangsta, he still kicking the oven door shut like any other busy line cook. Man isn't a legend. He's THE legend
That quick and quiet 'there we are" just after the final piece of cheese around 6:00 made me lose it
This looked fantastic. Nice and easy to make. I'm definitely going to make this. I also want to do a version of this using some basil. Thank you Marco. 😁👍🌤
MORE MARCO!!
Marco’s just completing side quests at this point
I love the kick close on the oven door
Didn’t know Marco was an ASMR legend as well😂

I've never seen anything like that in my life. Marco never disappoints. I'll bet it's utterly fucking delicious.
