Budding chef Brooklyn Beckham has gone for a more budget friendly option for his latest creation, after he was branded out of touch for ladling truffle on a simple pasta dash.
The 23-year-old shared a clip of on Instagram of him making "Scouse soup", which he described as "one of my favourite dishes", consisting of beef, cabbage, carrots, potatoes and stock.
There were no onions in it however, Brooklyn wrote in the comments section, as his wife Nicola "isn't a fan."
In the video, which has already received more than 72, 000 likes, Brooklyn chops the meat and vegetables, pouring stock in from a carton and stirring the meal.

Scouse soup is traditionally associated with the city of Liverpool, and was typically made up of leftovers.
Despite Brooklyn using more humble ingredients, his cooking still sparked debate.
One person wrote in the comments section that "Scouse is not a soup", and Brooklyn had cooked an English hot pot or stew instead.
They added: "If it were scouse it would be minced meat."

A third person said on Brooklyn's interpretation of the dish: "Saw the name, knew it wasn’t going to be real scouse. We need pure stewy thickness no watery vibes here."
Another critic said: "Literally not scouse … all Liverpudlians rolling their eyes"
However, others defended Brooklyn, writing: "Some of us appreciate a delicious yet simple meal that we might actually be able to cook ourselves."
Another wrote: "Least he cooks, its his way so leave him be. We all have different ways or versions of a dish and that's his."
Brooklyn is no stranger to his meal causing controversy, as last months he shared a video of himself using truffle with tagliatelle.

The media personality told fans that "in my kitchen, [there is] no such thing as too much truffle".
And with that, Brooklyn proceeded to grate fresh black truffle into cream sauce for tagliatelle pasta, before topping it off with more grated truffle on top of his finished dish.

“I wish I could afford the idea of ‘no such thing as too much truffle’,” one viewer wrote, while another wrote: “Because that's what you'll find in the kitchen of an average 20 year old...truffles. Let alone anyone that grinds each day for a paycheck.”
“These people live in a different world. Most people can barely afford to eat at the moment and this kid is waffling on about truffle,” someone else penned.
Meanwhile, fans of Brooklyn came to his aid, and claimed that he was simply sharing what makes him happy.
