ZOE BALL: The British family kitchen. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
Whether it's where you love to eat... | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
This is where we have our family feasts. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:08 | |
..or where you love to cook... | 0:00:08 | 0:00:10 | |
-SQUEALS: -Ye-e-e-es! | 0:00:10 | 0:00:11 | |
..it's where we all learn to love food. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:14 | |
I've tasted the food of many chefs | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
in many different restaurants all over the world, | 0:00:19 | 0:00:21 | |
but family cooking... | 0:00:21 | 0:00:22 | |
This one's puffing up. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:23 | |
..this is where real food comes from. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
Home cooking does something that fine dining does not. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
It creates the heart within the home... | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
-NADIYA: -She's eating all the ingredients. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
..bringing the family together. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:34 | |
We're searching for Britain's best family of cooks. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
Over the next few weeks, 16 families will go head-to-head. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
Teenagers and grandparents. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
Brothers and sisters. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
All cooking their very best family food in their own homes... | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
-The judges are going to love it. -Of course they will. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
..and here in our kitchen. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:58 | |
Oh, that smell! | 0:00:58 | 0:00:59 | |
That is delicious. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
I'm shaking so much. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:03 | |
ZOE: Judging their efforts every step of the way... | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
-GROANING -Drama! | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
..renowned cookery teacher, Rosemary Shrager... | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
I'm looking for a family who are going to blow me away with | 0:01:11 | 0:01:15 | |
the understanding of flavour, texture and altogether gorgeousness. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:21 | |
..and top Michelin-starred chef... | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
Hi, Giorgio. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:24 | |
..Giorgio Locatelli. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:26 | |
The food that I want to see is, of course, | 0:01:26 | 0:01:28 | |
very tasty and beautiful, | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
but the most important thing is to see them cooking with joy. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:34 | |
That's what home cooking's all about. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
-NADIYA: -These are the families who make ordinary food extraordinary. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
Utterly delicious. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:42 | |
I learned something today. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
The judges have made a decision. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:47 | |
This is The Big Family Cooking Showdown. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
Today, two families will go up against each other... | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
..each represented by three family members. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
They'll be tested over three challenging rounds - | 0:02:10 | 0:02:14 | |
here in our kitchen and in their own homes - | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
after which, the judges will decide who goes through to the semifinals. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:22 | |
Our first food-obsessed family are the Marks. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:29 | |
We like working together. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
Yeah, we do. Part of our strategy is to sort of keep my mother | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
a little bit in sort of check. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
Check! | 0:02:36 | 0:02:37 | |
Because that can also sort of be quite challenging. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
They're up against the Charleses. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
I'm helper - praise and encouragement. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:47 | |
Dan's list-maker and I'm... | 0:02:47 | 0:02:49 | |
-Supervisor. -..in charge. -HE CHUCKLES | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
Betty decided that. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
Yeah, and you're to just do as you're told. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
I do as I'm told. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:56 | |
A warm welcome to our wonderful families. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
The Marks, meet the Charles. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:02 | |
The Charles, meet the Marks. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:03 | |
All looking very calm before the storm hits. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
Please meet your judges, Rosemary and Giorgio, | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
who expect to be served some seriously good home cooking. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:16 | |
We're starting with the £10 Challenge. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
Today's theme is weekend lunch. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
The judges want to see you come up with something really special - | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
a family lunch for four for just £10. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
You have an hour and 15 minutes. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:31 | |
Let's get cooking. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:33 | |
-WHISPERS: -Oh, God! | 0:03:33 | 0:03:35 | |
Both families have had time to practise today's dishes. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
What do you reckon's going on over there? | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
Don't look over there. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:45 | |
-JEAN LAUGHS -Just concentrate on that bread. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
The Charles family from Yorkshire are Betty, husband Dan and mum Jean. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:54 | |
Betty is the boss of the kitchen. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
Is there any question? | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
-I'm just not going to say anything. -LAUGHTER | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
ZOE: For their £10 weekend lunch, | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
they're making... | 0:04:07 | 0:04:09 | |
For me, there is nothing better than a risotto to enjoy with your family | 0:04:17 | 0:04:21 | |
on a Sunday lunch. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
Well, considering one of the main judges is an Italian... | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
..Michelin-starred chef... | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
..absolutely calm and fine about it, obviously. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
Perfect risotto is made of simplicity. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
This risotto with fennel and lemon, | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
it will be very difficult to balance the flavour. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | |
-Am I in your way? -Always. -I hope so! | 0:04:44 | 0:04:47 | |
JEAN LAUGHS | 0:04:47 | 0:04:48 | |
So, Jean, is this something you do quite often, then, cooking together? | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
We do. Yeah, we do loads of cooking together, yeah. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:53 | |
They're really, really good at cooking. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
I'm all right at cooking, you know, home cooking. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:57 | |
Do you often go to their house and cook? | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
-Oh, yeah. -Or do they come to yours? | 0:04:59 | 0:05:01 | |
Either, because we only live about three miles away from each other, | 0:05:01 | 0:05:03 | |
-so we're... -If someone feeds me, I'll happily stay. -Well, I will too. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:07 | |
They're very welcome and I'm very... Well, I say I'm very welcome there, | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
maybe I'm not, Nadiya. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:11 | |
I think they love you. They just can't get rid of you. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
-Do you think that's what it is? -Yeah! | 0:05:14 | 0:05:16 | |
-NADIYA: -Adventurous foodies Betty and Dan got married last year. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
I'd definitely say that our passion for food and cooking | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
started when we went travelling. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:29 | |
The smells, the colours, everything. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:35 | |
It was just phenomenal. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:36 | |
-Just a massive eye-opener for us. -DAN: -Mm-hm. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
And you've just always been... | 0:05:41 | 0:05:42 | |
-Just a... -I've always cooked. -Yeah, you have, haven't you? | 0:05:42 | 0:05:44 | |
Yes, so I've got four kids, | 0:05:44 | 0:05:46 | |
so I always wanted to try and feed them well. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:48 | |
I'm rolling, I'm pushing. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:49 | |
You're not doing anything that I'm telling you. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
We have lots of fun when we cook together. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:54 | |
-We do. -We make each other laugh no end. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:57 | |
-I'm pushing and rolling. -No, let it go! | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
JEAN LAUGHS | 0:06:00 | 0:06:02 | |
Food's a huge, huge part of our lives. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:05 | |
We like to impress. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:06 | |
Yeah, absolutely, yeah. We really go for it. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:09 | |
Yeah, we make an event of pretty much every meal we do. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:11 | |
I think you're more showy than I am with food. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:15 | |
-You're getting a... -I just really like cooking. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:17 | |
How competitive are we? | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |
I think we'll win the competition. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
When we went to Italy, to Sorrento, we were taught to cook risotto. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:30 | |
It was amazing. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:32 | |
She was explaining to us that there's eight steps | 0:06:32 | 0:06:34 | |
to the best risotto. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
The base, temptation, then the sigh, then the cooking, | 0:06:36 | 0:06:41 | |
the parting, the buttering, the serving and then the eating. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:46 | |
She did teach me them in Italian. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:48 | |
-Go ahead. -I'm very... I'm very aware that Giorgio's here. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:53 | |
-Italian? -Yeah, come on, Betty. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:55 | |
-La base. -Il soffritto, la tentazione. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:59 | |
-Oh! -Il sospiro... | 0:06:59 | 0:07:01 | |
Uh, la cottura, la divisione... | 0:07:01 | 0:07:04 | |
-GIORGIO: -La mantecatura. -La mantecatura. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:07 | |
Il servire and, uh... | 0:07:07 | 0:07:09 | |
Il mangiare. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
Il servire and mangiare. Perfect. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:12 | |
-Yeah! -CHEERING | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
-BOTH: -Get in! | 0:07:14 | 0:07:16 | |
Could you give me the cream, please? | 0:07:18 | 0:07:20 | |
-Don't put it all in. -Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:25 | |
-You do know what you're doing. -Yeah, I do know what I'm doing. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
-NADIYA: -The Marks family are Oskar, | 0:07:29 | 0:07:31 | |
his mum Jessica, and grandmother Torun. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
Today we are making Swedish meatballs. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
It is the most national dish ever. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:40 | |
The meatballs will be served with a traditional cream sauce... | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
I think the most important thing is the sauce. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
They're using a beef stock and then they're putting cream into it, | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
and then on the side, cranberry sauce. | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
The combination to me doesn't seem to tally together. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:02 | |
But I might be surprised. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
-OSKAR: -I would say these are perfect, actually. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:09 | |
I would say I agree for once. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
Now we just have to make some perfectly-formed balls. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:14 | |
-TORUN LAUGHS -That's a bit big. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:18 | |
That one's a bit big, that one. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:20 | |
I'm interested to know if this is Torun's family meatball recipe. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:24 | |
-Mm. -You know when families keep recipes to themselves? | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
-Yeah. -My family doesn't really have that kind of recipe. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:29 | |
-Do you have like a...? -My mum... -Yeah. -..has lots of recipes but she | 0:08:29 | 0:08:32 | |
doesn't give them to us because she says that we'd just massacre them. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
It'd be great if it is a recipe that is something that's gone through | 0:08:35 | 0:08:37 | |
-the years and they've all learnt... -Yeah. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:39 | |
-Generation to generation. -Yeah! | 0:08:39 | 0:08:40 | |
The day you get taught the meatball recipe. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
-We're sharing that today. -Yeah. We can see. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:45 | |
That'd be great. That'd be good. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
Torun, how do you stay so young? | 0:08:48 | 0:08:50 | |
-I've felt much loved in my life. -ZOE GASPS | 0:08:50 | 0:08:53 | |
A little birdie told me that you've had four husbands. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:56 | |
-Yes. -Yeah? All of them good? | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
-Three, very good. -Three of them weren't bad? | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
-Will you marry again, Torun? -No, thank you. -OK. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:04 | |
-I've been there, I've done that. -ZOE LAUGHS | 0:09:04 | 0:09:07 | |
No number five. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
-Well, only as a boyfriend. -OK. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
I've got a couple of those going now. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
Enjoy making the meatballs. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:15 | |
Isn't she wonderful? | 0:09:15 | 0:09:16 | |
-LAUGHING: -No, I'm just considered quite mad. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:19 | |
I absolutely adore Torun. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:22 | |
-She is lovely, she looks... -She's wonderful! | 0:09:22 | 0:09:24 | |
-I need three more husbands. -Abdal, be afraid. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
-Yeah. -BOTH LAUGH | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
I'm 86, but I really don't want to tell you that. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:34 | |
She's worried because she's got this boyfriend who's younger than her. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:38 | |
-12 years. -He doesn't know how old she is. -Doesn't know how old she is. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:41 | |
I had to do a dinner party for her birthday | 0:09:43 | 0:09:45 | |
and have cake and everything, but we couldn't actually tell anyone... | 0:09:45 | 0:09:48 | |
-But didn't somebody let it slip? -..that it was her birthday. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
Former fashion designer and model Torun | 0:09:54 | 0:09:56 | |
has lived in the UK for over 50 years. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:59 | |
I lived all my adult life in London and I love it here | 0:09:59 | 0:10:04 | |
and I feel now more English than Swedish. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:07 | |
We've a very strong connection with Sweden, though, | 0:10:08 | 0:10:10 | |
cos I've been spending all my summers in Sweden | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
-since I was born, basically. -Me too. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:14 | |
In the summer, you have the crayfish season. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
Crayfish party time. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
It's the same with midsummer. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:20 | |
We would have this huge summer buffet, | 0:10:20 | 0:10:23 | |
so I think food was a celebration | 0:10:23 | 0:10:26 | |
and spending happy times with the family. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:29 | |
Oh, come on, we want to be the best cooking family in Britain. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
Of course! Of course! | 0:10:33 | 0:10:34 | |
Torun's in it for the cameras and the lights. | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
I just want to be the star, my dear. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
-Skol! -Skol. -Skol. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
-NADIYA: -Back in the Charleses' kitchen, | 0:10:44 | 0:10:46 | |
mum Jean is making the Parmesan crisps to accompany Betty's risotto. | 0:10:46 | 0:10:51 | |
I don't want it too brown and I don't want it too pale. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
It can be a bit chewy. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:56 | |
I've got to be vigilant. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:57 | |
-DAN: -Nobody wants a burnt crisp. -Don't burn them, Mum. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:01 | |
-How are the Markses doing? -Oh, God... They've formed the meatballs. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:04 | |
Grandmother is off chatting to people, cos that's what she does. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
But, luckily, we've got a contingency plan for her absence. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:15 | |
Just to get on with it! | 0:11:15 | 0:11:17 | |
Oh. I didn't bend it round me rolling pin quick enough, | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
so it hasn't gone properly circular. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:29 | |
Betty'll be annoyed at that one. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:30 | |
We won't tell her, Jean, we won't tell her. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:32 | |
Right, next one. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:34 | |
-Torun... -You've answered my question. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:35 | |
-You've got work to do. -The meatballs are in the oven now. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
-Are they? -Yes, come back to work! No skiving off. -Oh, gosh! | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
-We're here to cook. -So you're going to help Mum with the mash now, | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
-I believe? -Why should I help you? You're so good at it. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
This is what family food's all about. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:53 | |
It's about enjoying themselves, cooking together. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:55 | |
It feels like Sunday morning. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:57 | |
It does, actually, doesn't it? | 0:11:57 | 0:11:58 | |
We underestimate the power of food. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
I'm getting the rice so the rice is really hot | 0:12:02 | 0:12:05 | |
but not coloured, and then I'll add the wine. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:07 | |
There's your wine here, Betty. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:09 | |
There we go. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:15 | |
I've just added my wine, or the sigh, | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
and that goes in with a little stock. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:21 | |
And just keep going until we're up to the buttering stage. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:25 | |
ZOE: OK, you have half an hour left. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:26 | |
I don't think this is going to be ready. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:28 | |
-DAN: -Uh, let's hope it is. -Well... You... It'll... | 0:12:28 | 0:12:31 | |
You've half an hour. That's the long and short of it. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:33 | |
ZOE: Oskar's making HIS version | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
of a traditional cream sauce for the meatballs. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:42 | |
The sauce, I've made my own vegetable stock. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:44 | |
I've also put some beef into it. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
I've put the soy sauce in to darken it a bit | 0:12:46 | 0:12:48 | |
and also to provide some saltiness, | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
and the redcurrant jelly is for a bit of sweetness. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:54 | |
Oskar is the sauce king. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
I love his sauces. He's got a real touch. | 0:12:56 | 0:12:59 | |
He's my adored grandson. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:01 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:13:01 | 0:13:03 | |
That is delicious. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
-NADIYA: -In the Charleses' kitchen, | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |
Dan's moved on to the tempura fennel fritters. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:15 | |
-DAN: -I'm just getting ready to make the tempura batter, | 0:13:15 | 0:13:17 | |
so I've just got my plain flour in. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
I'm going to get my soda water in. A little bit... | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
a touch of corn-starch, if Betty's not listening, | 0:13:21 | 0:13:23 | |
cos she doesn't want me to change the recipe. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:25 | |
The sooner you eat them after being cooked, | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |
the crispier and the better they taste, | 0:13:27 | 0:13:29 | |
so I'm planning to leave the tempura till the last five minutes. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:31 | |
Are you REALLY planning on doing that? | 0:13:31 | 0:13:33 | |
-It just... -It's just how it's worked. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:35 | |
It needs to drain, though. It needs to drain. Put 'em in now. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:39 | |
Oh, God! | 0:13:39 | 0:13:40 | |
-NADIYA: -Guys, you've got 15 minutes to go. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:42 | |
Oh, my God! | 0:13:42 | 0:13:44 | |
We've had loads of time at home though, like, time to spare. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
I don't get it. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:48 | |
My tempura batter looks a bit thin. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:50 | |
Betty, is this OK? Have a quick check. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:53 | |
-Yeah. -Are you sure? | 0:13:53 | 0:13:54 | |
Yeah. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:55 | |
I was worried the tempura batter was too thin. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:57 | |
Betty told me it wasn't. That was the end of the conversation. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:01 | |
HE CHUCKLES | 0:14:01 | 0:14:02 | |
It's a bit thin, that sauce. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
It must be the right consistency. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:08 | |
Well, will you get all those lumps out? | 0:14:11 | 0:14:14 | |
It's a mistake, I think. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
We need to get ready to serve now, guys. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:22 | |
-Just got the... -Lumps. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:24 | |
Lumps, yeah. There's nothing I can do about that now. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:26 | |
You can strain it quickly. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
Strain it. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:29 | |
-Oh, come here. -Are you all right down there, Mum? | 0:14:31 | 0:14:33 | |
Just burning my face off in front of this grill. | 0:14:33 | 0:14:35 | |
As long as you're not burning the food. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:37 | |
-DAN: -Do it quietly, Jean. -ZOE: Five minutes. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:39 | |
SHE SQUEALS | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
Parmesan crisps. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:43 | |
-Got to have our flag. -Got to have our flag. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:50 | |
They brought a little Swedish flag and everything! | 0:14:50 | 0:14:53 | |
-Oh, have they? -We didn't bring props. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:55 | |
Right, guys, have a look at it all now. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:58 | |
That looks bang on. | 0:14:58 | 0:14:59 | |
Tah-dah! | 0:14:59 | 0:15:01 | |
Time's up. That's it. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
CHEERING | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
-LAUGHTER -We did it. -We did it! | 0:15:06 | 0:15:09 | |
With their £10 budget, | 0:15:11 | 0:15:13 | |
the Markses have made Swedish meatballs | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
with a traditional cream sauce, | 0:15:15 | 0:15:17 | |
mashed potato with dill and a cranberry sauce. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:21 | |
Incredibly beautifully understated in a very Swedish manner. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:24 | |
-I really like it. -Mm. Me too. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:27 | |
The meatballs have been cooked a tiny little bit too much. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:37 | |
The using of the meat to make that stock, | 0:15:38 | 0:15:40 | |
it really shines through that sauce. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:42 | |
A little bit more thickness. I know you had a bit of a problem. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:46 | |
I saw you were struggling with that whisk with your grandmother. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
-Yeah. -A little bit, yeah. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:51 | |
You were very polite. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:52 | |
That's very good. Very, very good boy. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:56 | |
-It's delicious. -Thank you very much. | 0:15:56 | 0:15:58 | |
It's not dry, it's meaty. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:01 | |
You don't need any more seasoning. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
You don't need any more flavour. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
And with the sauce... | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
Brings it together. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:09 | |
-Thank you. -So I think we'll just go for the cranberry sauce. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:13 | |
-It's interesting. LAUGHING: -Yes. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
Do you know what it reminds me of? A little bit of Christmas lunch. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
Yes. Absolutely. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
This is a piece of Sweden | 0:16:25 | 0:16:26 | |
and the fact that this is a recipe that has been your favourite | 0:16:26 | 0:16:28 | |
for such a long time, it shows. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
-Thank you so much. -Full of goodness and full of love. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:35 | |
-Thank you. -Thank you so much. -Thank you so much. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:37 | |
ZOE: The Charles family have made a lemon and fennel risotto | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
with Parmesan crisps and tempura fennel fritters. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:48 | |
First of all, I think it looks lovely. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:49 | |
I would love to have this for a lovely lunch, I really would. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:53 | |
-We ought to go to... -To the fennel. -..towards the fennel. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | |
Who was in charge of the batter here? | 0:16:56 | 0:16:58 | |
-This guy. -Was it? | 0:16:58 | 0:17:00 | |
-Yeah. -Just by the look of it, the batter was a little bit thin. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:05 | |
Needed to be a little bit thicker. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:08 | |
The actual thing doesn't look coated. It looks naked. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
-Mm. -Then we get to these lovely Parmesan crisps. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:15 | |
-Beautiful colour. -Go on, Mum! | 0:17:15 | 0:17:18 | |
-And... It's very crispy. -Mm. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:20 | |
It hasn't sweated, so it's not greasy in the mouth. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:26 | |
And it has a fantastic flavour. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:29 | |
-It's difficult to get... -Yeah! | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
-But you have managed in this case, so very good. -Hey! | 0:17:31 | 0:17:34 | |
Go on, Mum! | 0:17:34 | 0:17:36 | |
Well... | 0:17:36 | 0:17:37 | |
-The risotto, should I taste it? -I think you better taste it. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
-Shall I give you a plate? -I saw you cooking those fennel... -Mm-hm. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:44 | |
..with a touch of chilli. I thought, "Whoa!" | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
And the lemon. How many things go inside this risotto? | 0:17:47 | 0:17:51 | |
Yeah? To be overcomplicated, it was my great worry. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
OK. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:56 | |
I think maybe I've been proved wrong. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:12 | |
-Yes! -THEY SQUEAL | 0:18:12 | 0:18:15 | |
Can I have a little bit more? | 0:18:15 | 0:18:16 | |
Yes! | 0:18:16 | 0:18:18 | |
The flavours really complement each other. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:24 | |
The lemons sustain it. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
The fennel is there with the sweetness, and the chilli... | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
That's the... I learned something today. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:33 | |
Very, very well done. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:35 | |
That is bellissimo. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:38 | |
-Oh! -LAUGHTER | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
-Buonissimo. -Buonissimo. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:41 | |
Buonissimo. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
I'm absolutely impressed about this risotto. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:47 | |
I'm impressed for the balance, I'm impressed about the cooking, | 0:18:47 | 0:18:50 | |
I'm impressed about the mantecatura, | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
I'm impressed about the garnishes, the Parmesan crisps... | 0:18:53 | 0:18:57 | |
I would serve this risotto. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:00 | |
-ROSEMARY: Oh, he's impressed! -Ooh! -Oh, wow! | 0:19:00 | 0:19:02 | |
Giorgio! | 0:19:02 | 0:19:03 | |
He's impressed. Well done. | 0:19:04 | 0:19:07 | |
ZOE: For the next challenge, | 0:19:13 | 0:19:15 | |
both families must cook a main course and dessert | 0:19:15 | 0:19:18 | |
for Rosemary and Giorgio in their own homes. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:20 | |
-NADIYA: -The first stop is Bridlington in East Yorkshire - | 0:19:27 | 0:19:30 | |
a seaside town famous for its shellfish | 0:19:30 | 0:19:33 | |
and award-winning chippies, | 0:19:33 | 0:19:34 | |
and home to the Charles family. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:37 | |
I hope they like flowers. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:40 | |
Roll over! | 0:19:40 | 0:19:42 | |
Just taking the dogs for a walk before the chaos ensues. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:46 | |
It's fully mental that we've got Giorgio and Rosemary | 0:19:46 | 0:19:49 | |
coming for dinner today. Jean's obviously a constant worry. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
Stan's made a concise list of to-dos. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:56 | |
She's quite easily distracted, | 0:19:56 | 0:19:58 | |
which is why I've wrote "vigilant" on there for her. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
If Jean follows the list and I listen to Betty, | 0:20:01 | 0:20:03 | |
then we're all good, yeah. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:04 | |
-NADIYA: -And for today's Family Favourites, | 0:20:06 | 0:20:08 | |
they've just 90 minutes to cook two courses. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:11 | |
Nadiya's here! She's here. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:13 | |
Go on, then! | 0:20:13 | 0:20:15 | |
-Hey! -Yeah! | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
-NADIYA: -Hi. Hi! | 0:20:17 | 0:20:19 | |
LAUGHTER | 0:20:19 | 0:20:22 | |
How are you? You all right? How are you feeling? | 0:20:22 | 0:20:24 | |
-Oh! Well, you know, all the better for seeing you! -Excited? Aw! | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
JEAN LAUGHS | 0:20:27 | 0:20:28 | |
Your house says so much about you, | 0:20:29 | 0:20:30 | |
and you are so in love and that's really nice, actually. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:33 | |
-So what was your wedding like? -It was just so amazing. -Yeah. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:37 | |
Dan did, like, the best speech. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
I said, it's been an emotional day, | 0:20:39 | 0:20:41 | |
even the cake's in TIERS. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:42 | |
Hey! | 0:20:42 | 0:20:43 | |
ALL LAUGH | 0:20:43 | 0:20:45 | |
That is actually so bad that it's actually good. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:48 | |
It was like that calibre of hilarity. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:51 | |
As you know, the judges would like you to cook your Family Favourites - | 0:20:53 | 0:20:56 | |
a main and a dessert. | 0:20:56 | 0:20:57 | |
You've got one hour and 30 minutes. | 0:20:57 | 0:21:00 | |
-Off you go. -Come on, guys. -Right, come on. | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
Action stations. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:05 | |
Dan and Jean are responsible for the main course... | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
Just cut that one in half. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:21 | |
-Oh, one's fallen on the floor. -JEAN LAUGHS | 0:21:22 | 0:21:25 | |
I have my back turned for one minute... | 0:21:25 | 0:21:26 | |
I wasn't very vigilant then, was I? | 0:21:26 | 0:21:29 | |
-NADIYA: -To help the chicken cook quickly and evenly, | 0:21:31 | 0:21:34 | |
Dan uses a nifty technique. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:36 | |
Are you spatchcocking the chicken? | 0:21:36 | 0:21:38 | |
That's exactly what I'm doing, just cut the bone out and flatten it. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:41 | |
Is this the bit where you go... | 0:21:41 | 0:21:43 | |
That's it. You hear that crack. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
The chicken packs in an awful lot of flavour - the chilli, | 0:21:45 | 0:21:48 | |
the garlic, the ginger - big flavours coming through, | 0:21:48 | 0:21:51 | |
but it's very, very important to get that chicken cooked properly. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:54 | |
Chicken's in, guys. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
-Oh, gosh! -Jean, tell me, what are you doing up there? | 0:21:57 | 0:22:00 | |
I was a telephone engineer, towards the end of the '70s, | 0:22:00 | 0:22:03 | |
after they had the Equal Opportunities Act. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:05 | |
I was working for BT anyway and I thought, "Ooh!" | 0:22:05 | 0:22:08 | |
What really attracted me was | 0:22:08 | 0:22:10 | |
I thought you went round people's houses for a cup of tea, | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
but I didn't realise you were doing a bit of telephone pole climbing. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:15 | |
I don't know if I was the first, | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
but I was certainly one of the very first. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:18 | |
-Don't lie to 'em, Jean. -I could have been the first, | 0:22:18 | 0:22:21 | |
-but I don't know if I was. -OK. -If they find out you're lying... | 0:22:21 | 0:22:23 | |
-DAN: -Squash just wants a few minutes getting tossed through the spice mix | 0:22:26 | 0:22:29 | |
and then it's going to go underneath the chicken. | 0:22:29 | 0:22:31 | |
I love the idea of the spatchcock chicken. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:33 | |
It's got spices on it, but she's also spiced the butternut squash. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:37 | |
Let's see if it's not too much. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
-NADIYA: -These are all really familiar smells, Dan. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:41 | |
You know I'm from the Bengal as well? | 0:22:41 | 0:22:43 | |
These are the smells I've grown up with, so I feel right at home here. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
Dan's also making a crispy chicken skin. | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
-DAN: -So our friendly butcher | 0:22:50 | 0:22:52 | |
just gives us some skin if we ask him nicely. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:53 | |
Spice mix, chilli powder, | 0:22:53 | 0:22:55 | |
garam masala, cumin, coriander, paprika, | 0:22:55 | 0:22:58 | |
cardamom pods, some fresh chilli as well. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
The trick to crisping it up is to flatten it between two baking trays. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:05 | |
Normally, Betty doesn't do puddings. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
Today, she's attempting a childhood favourite with a twist... | 0:23:12 | 0:23:17 | |
Posset, such a British thing. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:28 | |
With two incredible flavours, which is the cardamom and the mango. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:32 | |
I'm expecting something really delicious here. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:34 | |
I love posset, but it's all about the textures. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
And the balance of the whole dessert. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:39 | |
If they get it wrong, it will be a disaster. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:41 | |
-Betty, do you not eat? -No, that's how I stay in shape. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:46 | |
-There's milk. -JEAN: -And that's mine. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
-DAN: -It actually is, as well. | 0:23:48 | 0:23:50 | |
No, we just take everything out of the fridge, | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
turn it up as high as it can to get it as cold as possible | 0:23:52 | 0:23:55 | |
to give it the most amount of chance to set. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:57 | |
I'm not a big dessert person, so this is a big deal for me. | 0:23:57 | 0:24:00 | |
-Right, go on. -SQUEALS: -Please set! | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
-NADIYA: -The final job is making flatbreads from scratch. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:09 | |
The bread must be really soft and really fluffy. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:13 | |
Beautiful colour, | 0:24:13 | 0:24:14 | |
perfectly seasoned to accompany this dish that carries so much flavour. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:19 | |
-BETTY: -Don't forget the baking powder! | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
-Ahem! -You remembered! | 0:24:21 | 0:24:24 | |
Have a little faith, guys. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:25 | |
Have a little bit of faith. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
Guys, you've had half an hour. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:30 | |
-OK! Oh, yeah, baste the chicken! -DAN: -I just have. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:33 | |
These lovely recipes, why are they your Family Favourites? | 0:24:34 | 0:24:38 | |
We've always done a lot of travelling out in south-east Asia, | 0:24:38 | 0:24:40 | |
and this is the sort of weekly stuff that we like to cook. | 0:24:40 | 0:24:43 | |
-We like to spice it up a bit, really. -All the things... -Yeah. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:46 | |
..that you love that you've picked up while travelling? | 0:24:46 | 0:24:49 | |
-Yeah. -Mm! | 0:24:49 | 0:24:50 | |
-DAN: -Betty, the chicken will be ready in, like, ten minutes. -Will it? | 0:24:50 | 0:24:53 | |
Yeah. We've only got about... 20 left? | 0:24:53 | 0:24:55 | |
Oh, my God! I'm not going to open that fridge. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:58 | |
Don't. The more time it gets, the better, right? So don't touch it. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:01 | |
-Don't touch it. -Don't touch it. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:02 | |
-DAN: -The chicken's done. | 0:25:02 | 0:25:03 | |
Brilliant, right, let's get it out to rest. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:05 | |
-Is it done? -Stick it right in the breast of it. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:08 | |
-DAN: -Yeah, I've just had it up to, like, mid-70s and now it's... | 0:25:08 | 0:25:11 | |
Put it back in. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:13 | |
-NADIYA: -Meanwhile, Jean griddles the flatbreads. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:18 | |
-Are we all right there? -Yeah, tickety-boo. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:21 | |
Nowt wrong with that. You know what I didn't do? | 0:25:21 | 0:25:24 | |
-Go on. -Didn't put salt in the flatbreads, but we can put | 0:25:24 | 0:25:27 | |
-a bit on the top, can't we? -Yeah. -But don't tell anybody that. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
Guys, you've got 11 minutes. | 0:25:30 | 0:25:32 | |
Oh, my God! Right, OK. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:33 | |
-NADIYA: -The chicken's not the only thing that needs more time. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:37 | |
-DAN: -The chicken skin's still a little soft. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:39 | |
Why have you taken the top off the chicken skin? | 0:25:39 | 0:25:41 | |
To get it hotter quicker. | 0:25:41 | 0:25:43 | |
Do you think that's done? | 0:25:44 | 0:25:45 | |
I'm not in charge of crispy skin. | 0:25:45 | 0:25:47 | |
-JEAN LAUGHS -What does it usually look like? | 0:25:47 | 0:25:50 | |
That, but crispier! | 0:25:50 | 0:25:52 | |
Pray it says the right number. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:55 | |
It's got to get to 74. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:57 | |
Aw, there we go. 78! | 0:25:57 | 0:25:58 | |
-NADIYA: -You said you wanted to take your posset out at eight minutes. | 0:25:58 | 0:26:02 | |
Six, maybe. | 0:26:02 | 0:26:04 | |
-DAN: -Need to start thinking about that now. Six minutes to go. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:07 | |
I'm taking it out now. | 0:26:07 | 0:26:08 | |
-Yes. -SQUEALS: -Ye-e-e-es! | 0:26:11 | 0:26:13 | |
-I can't hear anything. -Yes, yes! | 0:26:13 | 0:26:16 | |
Betty finishes her possets with lime curd, | 0:26:17 | 0:26:20 | |
toasted coconut and a disc of fresh mango. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:23 | |
Beautiful, Betty. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:27 | |
They are ready to be blowtorched. Swap! | 0:26:28 | 0:26:30 | |
Guys, I don't mean to alarm you, but the judges are on their way. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:37 | |
Oh, my God, the chicken skin! | 0:26:37 | 0:26:39 | |
-There, that looks fine. -These are the bits I was worried about. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
-It's still... Oh, no, it's not. -It's hard. | 0:26:43 | 0:26:45 | |
-Yeah, it's fine! -My God! -Smile, Dan, come on. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:47 | |
-Yay! -Yeah! | 0:26:47 | 0:26:48 | |
BOTH LAUGH | 0:26:48 | 0:26:51 | |
They look a bit... | 0:26:52 | 0:26:53 | |
No, they look fine in there. That's how we eat them. | 0:26:53 | 0:26:55 | |
-Guys, one minute... -Aah! -..and it has got to be on the table. -OK, OK. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:59 | |
-DAN: -We're done, we're done, we're done. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:01 | |
-OK, OK, OK. -After you. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:03 | |
THEY CHEER | 0:27:08 | 0:27:11 | |
Well done. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:14 | |
Feeling a bit left out? | 0:27:16 | 0:27:18 | |
Come here, Jean. You'll be fine. You'll be fine. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:21 | |
First on the Charles' Family Favourites menu, | 0:27:28 | 0:27:30 | |
Dan's chilli ginger roast chicken with crispy chicken skin... | 0:27:30 | 0:27:35 | |
..with Jean's Bengali spiced butternut squash | 0:27:37 | 0:27:40 | |
and garlic and herb flatbreads. | 0:27:40 | 0:27:43 | |
This, as a dish... | 0:27:43 | 0:27:45 | |
The presentation would be impossible to get in any family in Europe. | 0:27:45 | 0:27:48 | |
Only in Britain this is happening. | 0:27:48 | 0:27:50 | |
It looks fantastic. Let's see how it tastes like. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:53 | |
The chicken is cooked perfectly. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:00 | |
It is not easy, as well, | 0:28:02 | 0:28:03 | |
to have legs and breasts both nice and succulent | 0:28:03 | 0:28:06 | |
and delicious in taste. | 0:28:06 | 0:28:09 | |
All those flavours are really working together | 0:28:09 | 0:28:11 | |
into something quite special. It's really good. | 0:28:11 | 0:28:16 | |
Squash cooked al dente. | 0:28:16 | 0:28:18 | |
- It's perfect. - Needs a bit of bite. | 0:28:18 | 0:28:21 | |
Yes, that little bit of bite, it really does help. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:24 | |
I really like that skin. | 0:28:27 | 0:28:29 | |
It's crispy. It's like having a piece of crackling. | 0:28:29 | 0:28:32 | |
But it's also so tasty with the chilli | 0:28:32 | 0:28:34 | |
and all the flavours in there. | 0:28:34 | 0:28:35 | |
Who made the bread? | 0:28:39 | 0:28:41 | |
The cooking is fine. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:44 | |
-No seasoning. -No... | 0:28:46 | 0:28:48 | |
It's just bland. | 0:28:48 | 0:28:49 | |
That takes just a pinch of salt to make it better. | 0:28:49 | 0:28:52 | |
I think this is Britain talking to us, really, from the kitchen. | 0:28:52 | 0:28:56 | |
I tell you something, you know how to cook. | 0:28:56 | 0:28:59 | |
-Thank you so much. -Thank you. | 0:28:59 | 0:29:01 | |
-NADIYA: -Now for Betty's mango and cardamom posset with lime curd, | 0:29:01 | 0:29:05 | |
toasted coconut topping and caramelised mango. | 0:29:05 | 0:29:09 | |
You call that a posset? | 0:29:12 | 0:29:14 | |
Yeah. | 0:29:15 | 0:29:16 | |
It is exactly what it is. | 0:29:20 | 0:29:21 | |
Oh. | 0:29:21 | 0:29:22 | |
You got it perfect. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:25 | |
SHE PRETENDS TO SOB | 0:29:27 | 0:29:28 | |
Because the mango hits you first and the creaminess comes and, | 0:29:28 | 0:29:32 | |
last in your mouth, is little pieces of coconut, which is incredible. | 0:29:32 | 0:29:36 | |
This is a very, | 0:29:36 | 0:29:40 | |
VERY good dessert. | 0:29:40 | 0:29:42 | |
Oh, my God! | 0:29:42 | 0:29:44 | |
Thank you so much. | 0:29:46 | 0:29:47 | |
Well, fibber, you said you don't do desserts. | 0:29:52 | 0:29:55 | |
-I don't! -Of course you don't! | 0:29:55 | 0:29:57 | |
-Maybe I do. -Maybe you do now. | 0:29:57 | 0:29:59 | |
-I think I do. -You were fantastic. | 0:29:59 | 0:30:01 | |
We all were. | 0:30:01 | 0:30:03 | |
-So, so happy. -I forgot the salt. -I know. | 0:30:03 | 0:30:06 | |
Did you not follow your list? | 0:30:06 | 0:30:08 | |
I followed my list but I did forget the salt. | 0:30:08 | 0:30:10 | |
I'm looking forward to seeing what you cook next. I cannot wait. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:13 | |
I'm so excited. | 0:30:13 | 0:30:15 | |
The judges' next destination is the busy suburb of Shepherd's Bush | 0:30:22 | 0:30:26 | |
in West London. | 0:30:26 | 0:30:28 | |
Tucked away amongst the residential terraced streets, | 0:30:29 | 0:30:32 | |
a distinctive warehouse conversion, home to Jessica of the Marks family. | 0:30:32 | 0:30:37 | |
Something that we would always do is have candles, so, | 0:30:39 | 0:30:42 | |
even if we're having lunch, we would still have candles, | 0:30:42 | 0:30:45 | |
and that's quite a traditional Swedish thing. | 0:30:45 | 0:30:47 | |
This is a traditional wooden side plate that we tend to use | 0:30:47 | 0:30:51 | |
when we're eating bread. | 0:30:51 | 0:30:53 | |
-Is it OK? -Mm-hm. | 0:30:53 | 0:30:55 | |
Thank you, darling. | 0:30:55 | 0:30:57 | |
It's a bit of a family tradition, this dish. | 0:30:57 | 0:31:00 | |
Torun originally taught us | 0:31:00 | 0:31:02 | |
and then we've kind of all adapted it in our own little way. | 0:31:02 | 0:31:04 | |
A little bit nervous. | 0:31:04 | 0:31:06 | |
-I -don't have any nerves. | 0:31:06 | 0:31:08 | |
As usual. | 0:31:08 | 0:31:09 | |
So, Zoe, welcome to our home. | 0:31:13 | 0:31:16 | |
A-ha! Oskar, how are you, my darling? | 0:31:16 | 0:31:18 | |
-Nice to see you. -Lovely to see you. I'm very excited. | 0:31:18 | 0:31:20 | |
-Welcome. -Lovely to see you. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:22 | |
-Lovely to see you. -Are we ready? | 0:31:22 | 0:31:24 | |
Yeah, we're ready. We're ready. | 0:31:24 | 0:31:25 | |
As you know, the judges have asked you to cook your family favourite | 0:31:25 | 0:31:28 | |
main and dessert in 90 minutes. | 0:31:28 | 0:31:31 | |
-Off you go. -Great. Let's go for it, guys. | 0:31:31 | 0:31:34 | |
Oskar is responsible for the main course - | 0:31:41 | 0:31:43 | |
his version of a traditional Swedish fish soup, | 0:31:43 | 0:31:46 | |
served with garlic mayonnaise - aioli - and rustic bread rolls. | 0:31:46 | 0:31:51 | |
This is wholemeal flour, and I've added some flax seeds | 0:31:51 | 0:31:54 | |
and pumpkin seeds to give it a bit more texture. | 0:31:54 | 0:31:57 | |
I have practised this before, | 0:31:57 | 0:31:58 | |
and it did go fairly well. | 0:31:58 | 0:32:00 | |
Who knows, this time? | 0:32:00 | 0:32:02 | |
Jessica's in charge of the garlic mayonnaise to accompany Oskar's soup | 0:32:04 | 0:32:08 | |
-and bread. -It's going to be a garnish, like an aioli. | 0:32:08 | 0:32:12 | |
We've always got this conflict going on with the garlic. | 0:32:12 | 0:32:15 | |
I don't like if it's too garlicky. | 0:32:15 | 0:32:17 | |
Mother likes it very garlicky. | 0:32:17 | 0:32:19 | |
You're probably about halfway, Oskar, aren't you, between the two? | 0:32:19 | 0:32:22 | |
Cor, that's a bit garlicky, Mum. | 0:32:23 | 0:32:26 | |
Well, I think it'll be fine. | 0:32:26 | 0:32:28 | |
It can't be too garlicky for me. | 0:32:28 | 0:32:30 | |
I'm responsible for the soup. | 0:32:33 | 0:32:34 | |
I started by sweating some onions, garlic, | 0:32:34 | 0:32:36 | |
fennel and a little bit of carrot. | 0:32:36 | 0:32:38 | |
That's followed by some spices, actually, some curry powder. | 0:32:38 | 0:32:42 | |
Finally, he adds a fish stock cube. | 0:32:42 | 0:32:44 | |
By choosing fish soup as their main course, if you're going to do that, | 0:32:45 | 0:32:48 | |
you need a really good stock using the fish bones, | 0:32:48 | 0:32:52 | |
because that's where the flavour will be. | 0:32:52 | 0:32:56 | |
You've had half an hour, lovely Marks family. | 0:32:56 | 0:32:59 | |
-Half an hour. -Half an hour. How's your bread getting on? | 0:32:59 | 0:33:02 | |
-It's rising. -Great. | 0:33:02 | 0:33:04 | |
For pudding, Torun's making Dotty Grandma's apple crumble | 0:33:07 | 0:33:11 | |
with a Swedish-inspired cardamom-flavoured custard. | 0:33:11 | 0:33:14 | |
I'm looking for a beautiful crumble, | 0:33:14 | 0:33:17 | |
to be moist and really nice underneath | 0:33:17 | 0:33:19 | |
with the apples, and really crispy | 0:33:19 | 0:33:21 | |
and nutty at the top. | 0:33:21 | 0:33:23 | |
How is her apple crumble? I'm imagining... | 0:33:24 | 0:33:27 | |
I love it. I absolutely love it. | 0:33:27 | 0:33:28 | |
-Ah! -Taste it. It is delicious. | 0:33:28 | 0:33:31 | |
You won't ever stop eating it! | 0:33:31 | 0:33:33 | |
Oh, that is delicious. | 0:33:33 | 0:33:35 | |
Who taught you to cook? | 0:33:35 | 0:33:36 | |
My father, who was actually a lawyer. | 0:33:36 | 0:33:39 | |
He was a great cook. Not my mother. | 0:33:39 | 0:33:41 | |
It was obviously quite a nice pastime for him when he got | 0:33:41 | 0:33:43 | |
-home from work. -Yes. | 0:33:43 | 0:33:45 | |
Heavy day as a lawyer, come home, cook with his daughter. | 0:33:45 | 0:33:48 | |
-Yeah, he liked that. -OK. And why do you use a fork? | 0:33:48 | 0:33:50 | |
Because it's easy to break down the butter and the almonds together, | 0:33:50 | 0:33:54 | |
so you don't get the big lumps. | 0:33:54 | 0:33:56 | |
-People love it. -It's going to be delicious. | 0:33:56 | 0:33:58 | |
But the judges have got to think so. | 0:33:58 | 0:34:00 | |
Exactly. It's all in the taste and the judges. | 0:34:00 | 0:34:03 | |
With the crumble topping done, Torun turns to the filling. | 0:34:05 | 0:34:08 | |
I grate the apples, because I prefer it to sliced. | 0:34:08 | 0:34:11 | |
It becomes fluffier, | 0:34:11 | 0:34:13 | |
and doesn't go like the mashed apple puree. | 0:34:13 | 0:34:18 | |
It's better. | 0:34:18 | 0:34:20 | |
The crumble will be served | 0:34:22 | 0:34:23 | |
with Jessica's freshly-made cardamom custard, | 0:34:23 | 0:34:26 | |
starting with ground cardamom and vanilla extract. | 0:34:26 | 0:34:30 | |
I am addicted to cardamom. | 0:34:30 | 0:34:32 | |
So I just thought, rather than having vanilla sauce... | 0:34:32 | 0:34:35 | |
Excuse me, I... It was MY idea! | 0:34:35 | 0:34:37 | |
You can't take the credit for everything, Torun. | 0:34:37 | 0:34:39 | |
No, sorry. | 0:34:39 | 0:34:41 | |
No, Jessica. | 0:34:41 | 0:34:43 | |
She may well have come up with the idea at the same time, | 0:34:43 | 0:34:46 | |
or even before, but I really did not want to have a vanilla custard. | 0:34:46 | 0:34:52 | |
I'm whisking the egg yolks and I'm boiling up some cream | 0:34:53 | 0:34:56 | |
with some cardamom so that cardamom flavour | 0:34:56 | 0:34:58 | |
can infuse into the cream, and then | 0:34:58 | 0:35:01 | |
I shall be adding it to the eggs. | 0:35:01 | 0:35:03 | |
Just to remind you, the judges are on their way. | 0:35:08 | 0:35:12 | |
Crumble's coming out. Whoops! | 0:35:12 | 0:35:14 | |
They look great. | 0:35:14 | 0:35:16 | |
The fish is ready. | 0:35:19 | 0:35:21 | |
Where's the aioli? | 0:35:27 | 0:35:28 | |
-Ah! -Quite tense now. | 0:35:31 | 0:35:34 | |
How's the bread? | 0:35:34 | 0:35:36 | |
That looks good, Jessica. | 0:35:37 | 0:35:39 | |
Continue. | 0:35:39 | 0:35:40 | |
Crumble's served. | 0:35:43 | 0:35:44 | |
Time's up. Well done, family. That was fantastic work. | 0:35:47 | 0:35:50 | |
Are you pleased? | 0:35:50 | 0:35:52 | |
Yeah, yeah, I'm pleased. | 0:35:52 | 0:35:54 | |
It looks beautiful. | 0:35:54 | 0:35:55 | |
The first dish to be tasted by the judges is the Swedish fish soup | 0:35:58 | 0:36:03 | |
with aioli and freshly baked bread rolls. | 0:36:03 | 0:36:07 | |
The fish is beautifully cooked. | 0:36:12 | 0:36:15 | |
You've got all the ingredients to make a fabulous soup. | 0:36:15 | 0:36:20 | |
But it's a little bland. | 0:36:20 | 0:36:21 | |
If you'd just got some fish bones and made a proper stock, | 0:36:21 | 0:36:25 | |
then you would have had a proper fish soup. | 0:36:25 | 0:36:28 | |
We've always tried to make it NOT very fishy, | 0:36:28 | 0:36:30 | |
and that's probably silly, for a fish soup. | 0:36:30 | 0:36:32 | |
-GIORGIO: -You've done a really good job with this bread. | 0:36:32 | 0:36:35 | |
It's really well cooked. | 0:36:35 | 0:36:37 | |
It's got a lovely crust and a lovely colour. | 0:36:37 | 0:36:39 | |
The flavour is delicious with the right amount of seasoning in it. | 0:36:39 | 0:36:42 | |
- I like that. - Thank you. | 0:36:42 | 0:36:44 | |
I'm going to try it with the aioli. | 0:36:44 | 0:36:46 | |
It's got a little bit of bitterness to that. | 0:36:48 | 0:36:51 | |
Maybe too much garlic. | 0:36:51 | 0:36:52 | |
Now for Torun's apple crumble with cardamom custard. | 0:36:54 | 0:36:58 | |
First of all, I love the look of this crunchy top. | 0:36:58 | 0:37:01 | |
That is quite frankly delicious. | 0:37:06 | 0:37:10 | |
-Oh, thank you! -I like the fact that apple was grated, | 0:37:10 | 0:37:14 | |
so you've got that soft underneath, | 0:37:14 | 0:37:15 | |
real nutty texture on the top... | 0:37:15 | 0:37:18 | |
I'm going to steal that recipe! | 0:37:18 | 0:37:20 | |
-With pleasure. -That is delicious. | 0:37:20 | 0:37:22 | |
The custard, I can taste the cardamom, | 0:37:22 | 0:37:26 | |
but I do taste a lot of vanilla, but it's still a fantastic custard. | 0:37:26 | 0:37:30 | |
I wish they sold custard like that everywhere! | 0:37:30 | 0:37:34 | |
- Well done. - Well done. | 0:37:34 | 0:37:36 | |
-How do you feel? -Great. -Absolutely thrilled. | 0:37:37 | 0:37:40 | |
I, personally, was really happy about their criticisms | 0:37:40 | 0:37:44 | |
-because I learned something. -You learned something? | 0:37:44 | 0:37:46 | |
-So did I. -For me, life is a learning process. | 0:37:46 | 0:37:48 | |
-I couldn't have put it better myself, Torun. -Good. | 0:37:48 | 0:37:52 | |
Today, both families returned to our kitchen for their third | 0:37:59 | 0:38:03 | |
and final challenge... | 0:38:03 | 0:38:05 | |
..after which, the judges will decide which family to put through | 0:38:07 | 0:38:10 | |
to the semifinals. | 0:38:10 | 0:38:12 | |
Just do our best, guys. | 0:38:13 | 0:38:15 | |
That's all we can do, is our best. | 0:38:15 | 0:38:16 | |
But try and do a bit better than your best. | 0:38:16 | 0:38:19 | |
-Right. OK. -OK? | 0:38:19 | 0:38:21 | |
-GIORGIO: -The Charleses are great cooks. | 0:38:25 | 0:38:27 | |
There's no two ways about it. | 0:38:27 | 0:38:29 | |
They've set the standard very, very high. | 0:38:29 | 0:38:31 | |
But they have to raise the bar a little bit more in order | 0:38:31 | 0:38:34 | |
to get a place in the semifinal. | 0:38:34 | 0:38:36 | |
What I love about the Charles family is how they have this | 0:38:36 | 0:38:39 | |
passion for cooking. | 0:38:39 | 0:38:40 | |
You could see it in their faces. | 0:38:40 | 0:38:42 | |
But they let themselves down on the small things. | 0:38:42 | 0:38:45 | |
That under-seasoned bread in Challenge Two was definitely | 0:38:45 | 0:38:48 | |
a schoolboy error. | 0:38:48 | 0:38:49 | |
-There's yours. -Thank you. -Oskar? | 0:38:51 | 0:38:54 | |
We're really, really hoping to get through to the semifinals. | 0:38:55 | 0:38:58 | |
We must have practised about ten times. | 0:38:58 | 0:39:00 | |
I think what we are doing is quite unusual. | 0:39:00 | 0:39:02 | |
It's not, you know, a typical dish. | 0:39:02 | 0:39:04 | |
We're in it to win it, that's for sure. | 0:39:04 | 0:39:06 | |
I love the traditional but super food that the Markses do. | 0:39:08 | 0:39:10 | |
Totally different from the Charleses. | 0:39:10 | 0:39:13 | |
If they can keep Torun in check, it'll be fine. | 0:39:13 | 0:39:16 | |
The Markses are my kind of family cook. | 0:39:16 | 0:39:18 | |
Food is very simple and very straightforward. | 0:39:18 | 0:39:22 | |
They have a little bit of problems with technicalities, | 0:39:22 | 0:39:24 | |
but that's a small thing. | 0:39:24 | 0:39:26 | |
If they cook well in Challenge Three, | 0:39:26 | 0:39:27 | |
that could see them through to the semifinal. | 0:39:27 | 0:39:30 | |
Hello, families. Welcome back. | 0:39:35 | 0:39:36 | |
I hope you know what you've let yourselves for because it's time | 0:39:36 | 0:39:40 | |
to pull out all the stops. | 0:39:40 | 0:39:42 | |
Yes, it's the deciding round. | 0:39:42 | 0:39:44 | |
It's the Impress The Neighbours Challenge. | 0:39:44 | 0:39:46 | |
Rosemary and Giorgio would like you to create two glorious dishes | 0:39:46 | 0:39:52 | |
in 2 hours and 15 minutes. | 0:39:52 | 0:39:55 | |
So let's get cooking. | 0:39:55 | 0:39:57 | |
Come on, team, let's go. | 0:39:59 | 0:40:01 | |
The peeler, please. | 0:40:01 | 0:40:02 | |
Here's the peeler. | 0:40:02 | 0:40:04 | |
Get the crab out. | 0:40:06 | 0:40:07 | |
Today, each family must make a starter and a main course. | 0:40:07 | 0:40:12 | |
I'm looking for a really good meal. | 0:40:12 | 0:40:14 | |
They've got to impress their neighbours and also impress us. | 0:40:14 | 0:40:17 | |
And both have chosen to make fresh pasta for their starters. | 0:40:17 | 0:40:22 | |
Pasta versus pasta. | 0:40:22 | 0:40:23 | |
I know. Two pastas | 0:40:23 | 0:40:25 | |
for Giorgio, the expert. | 0:40:25 | 0:40:27 | |
I think that they try to show off today. | 0:40:29 | 0:40:32 | |
Cooking pasta for me, I'll be very picky with that. | 0:40:32 | 0:40:35 | |
The Charleses' starter is... | 0:40:36 | 0:40:38 | |
I can feel someone lurking behind me. | 0:40:45 | 0:40:47 | |
Hi, Giorgio! You all right? | 0:40:49 | 0:40:51 | |
Just feeling super-calm about it. Not fazed at all, | 0:40:56 | 0:41:00 | |
while he's just watching me make my pasta. | 0:41:00 | 0:41:03 | |
You know they're making pasta? | 0:41:06 | 0:41:07 | |
I know. Makes it a bit more competitive, | 0:41:07 | 0:41:10 | |
but I'm quite confident in my pasta. | 0:41:10 | 0:41:13 | |
When I learnt that they were doing pasta as well, | 0:41:15 | 0:41:17 | |
I was a bit put out by that, to be honest, | 0:41:17 | 0:41:19 | |
so we'll just see how each of them turns out. | 0:41:19 | 0:41:22 | |
Pasta's a tricky one to get right, | 0:41:23 | 0:41:25 | |
so the fact that they're both doing it, | 0:41:25 | 0:41:27 | |
it's going to be interesting. | 0:41:27 | 0:41:28 | |
I'm excited to see them making fresh pasta. | 0:41:28 | 0:41:31 | |
It's such a lovely process. | 0:41:31 | 0:41:33 | |
Before rolling and filling, pasta dough needs to rest. | 0:41:33 | 0:41:38 | |
Betty puts hers in the fridge. | 0:41:38 | 0:41:40 | |
But Jessica's taking a different approach. | 0:41:42 | 0:41:44 | |
I was actually told that it rests better out of the fridge, | 0:41:44 | 0:41:47 | |
because there's a danger that it can get a bit too moist. | 0:41:47 | 0:41:50 | |
We'll see what the difference is. | 0:41:50 | 0:41:52 | |
Jean helps with the seafood ravioli filling. | 0:41:55 | 0:41:57 | |
Crab? I wish I was your neighbour! | 0:41:57 | 0:41:59 | |
How are you feeling about your other neighbours today? | 0:41:59 | 0:42:02 | |
I know. They're also doing pasta. I feel a bit anxious. | 0:42:02 | 0:42:04 | |
Yeah? You must not worry about what your neighbours are doing. | 0:42:04 | 0:42:07 | |
-No, I'm not going to worry about them. -You must concentrate. | 0:42:07 | 0:42:10 | |
-I'm trying to be vigilant and stick with my crab. -Yes. | 0:42:10 | 0:42:12 | |
Seasoning, seasoning, seasoning. | 0:42:15 | 0:42:18 | |
What I'm expecting from the crab and prawn ravioli | 0:42:18 | 0:42:21 | |
is just a really soft flavour on the inside. | 0:42:21 | 0:42:25 | |
One of the most important things when you're making a ravioli | 0:42:27 | 0:42:30 | |
is the filling has to be tasty enough. | 0:42:30 | 0:42:33 | |
Pasta dilutes it a bit. | 0:42:33 | 0:42:35 | |
To get the wow factor, you need that filling to be really delicious. | 0:42:35 | 0:42:39 | |
Where's me wazzer? Just going to wazz it all up now. | 0:42:39 | 0:42:42 | |
-Stop saying "wazz"! -That's what they say! | 0:42:42 | 0:42:44 | |
-That's not a technical term! -Everyone says wazz! -Who says? | 0:42:44 | 0:42:47 | |
Yes, I could put a bit more in of everything there. | 0:42:47 | 0:42:50 | |
Perfect. | 0:42:51 | 0:42:53 | |
Come on! | 0:42:56 | 0:42:58 | |
This thyme's lovely and fresh. | 0:42:58 | 0:43:00 | |
The Marks family pasta is a variety called agnolotti... | 0:43:00 | 0:43:03 | |
..filled with goat's cheese, walnuts, honey and thyme. | 0:43:05 | 0:43:09 | |
Agnolotti, northern Italian. | 0:43:13 | 0:43:16 | |
That's where I come from. Usually the stuffing is meat. | 0:43:16 | 0:43:18 | |
I'm a little bit worried about the goat's cheese | 0:43:18 | 0:43:21 | |
and the walnut and then the lemon sauce, and the pancetta. | 0:43:21 | 0:43:25 | |
It's a lot of flavours coming through. | 0:43:25 | 0:43:27 | |
What do you think? | 0:43:27 | 0:43:29 | |
-Yeah. -It's got to be perfect. | 0:43:29 | 0:43:31 | |
I think the more simple the dish, the more perfect it's got to be, | 0:43:31 | 0:43:34 | |
-because there's no hiding. -I agree. -You've just got to get it right. | 0:43:34 | 0:43:37 | |
The thing is, they're supposed to be impressing the neighbours, | 0:43:37 | 0:43:41 | |
aren't they? | 0:43:41 | 0:43:42 | |
But I think they're trying to impress you more than anything else. | 0:43:42 | 0:43:46 | |
Are you used to impressing the neighbours | 0:43:46 | 0:43:48 | |
with your delights - culinary delights? | 0:43:48 | 0:43:51 | |
I have to say that they all come back. | 0:43:51 | 0:43:55 | |
Something you're doing is obviously right, then, Torun. | 0:43:55 | 0:43:57 | |
-Well, it must be. -Good luck. | 0:43:57 | 0:43:59 | |
-Thank you. -Families, you've had one hour. | 0:43:59 | 0:44:03 | |
-DAN: -Are we on schedule, everyone? -Yes, Chef. | 0:44:03 | 0:44:05 | |
I feel very nervous today. | 0:44:08 | 0:44:10 | |
I do. I think it's cos it means so much to us, | 0:44:10 | 0:44:13 | |
and it's so important. | 0:44:13 | 0:44:15 | |
I don't get nervous. | 0:44:16 | 0:44:18 | |
It's pointless. I just do my best, and that's it. | 0:44:18 | 0:44:22 | |
Oskar's in charge of the Marks' main course... | 0:44:22 | 0:44:25 | |
It's Skrei Cod, which is cod that's been migrating down from the north, | 0:44:32 | 0:44:36 | |
from, like, Norway. It's only available for three weeks a year. | 0:44:36 | 0:44:39 | |
It's a bit of a delicacy in Sweden. | 0:44:39 | 0:44:41 | |
Now, there's been a big debate about whether we should have the skin on | 0:44:41 | 0:44:44 | |
or the skin off. Because we're going to poach it, | 0:44:44 | 0:44:46 | |
we're going to take the skin off. | 0:44:46 | 0:44:48 | |
Taking the skin off really is going to make it harder to stay together, | 0:44:49 | 0:44:53 | |
-I tell you. -Well, I personally think it would be better if you did. | 0:44:53 | 0:44:56 | |
You're taking off too much of the fish. | 0:44:56 | 0:44:58 | |
-Yeah. -Never mind. -Do you want me to help you? | 0:44:58 | 0:45:01 | |
Well, it's a bit late for that, really. It would have been nice. | 0:45:01 | 0:45:04 | |
Could have been better. Disaster. | 0:45:06 | 0:45:09 | |
-NADIYA: -With the skin removed, | 0:45:09 | 0:45:10 | |
Oskar starts by poaching the fish in milk with onions and celery. | 0:45:10 | 0:45:13 | |
Fish going in. | 0:45:13 | 0:45:16 | |
I'm really quite excited about that cod. | 0:45:16 | 0:45:18 | |
Hopefully they cook it properly. | 0:45:18 | 0:45:20 | |
-Slow-cooking. -Slow-cooking. | 0:45:20 | 0:45:22 | |
-Fresh. -It's got to be firm and white, but flake. | 0:45:22 | 0:45:24 | |
-NADIYA: -Next, he blitzes cooked peas with lemon juice and butter | 0:45:25 | 0:45:29 | |
for a distinctive sauce to accompany his fish. | 0:45:29 | 0:45:33 | |
So here comes the crazy part, | 0:45:33 | 0:45:34 | |
just getting these amazing fresh pea juices out of this mush of peas. | 0:45:34 | 0:45:37 | |
The actual pea is not going to be eaten, it's just the juice from it. | 0:45:37 | 0:45:40 | |
So, that way, it's really still nice and fresh. | 0:45:40 | 0:45:43 | |
Fascinating sauce. | 0:45:43 | 0:45:44 | |
When I had it the first time, I couldn't believe how delicious. | 0:45:44 | 0:45:47 | |
In the Charleses' kitchen, | 0:45:49 | 0:45:51 | |
Dan's working on the centrepiece - saltimbocca, | 0:45:51 | 0:45:54 | |
a classic Italian dish of veal wrapped in prosciutto with sage. | 0:45:54 | 0:45:58 | |
Dan is using a high-welfare British veal called rose. | 0:46:05 | 0:46:09 | |
The texture of the veal should just be a nice melt-in-the-mouth piece | 0:46:09 | 0:46:12 | |
of meat, yeah. That's just one little portion. | 0:46:12 | 0:46:14 | |
That's that one prepared. Just another three to go. | 0:46:14 | 0:46:17 | |
This screams Italian. | 0:46:19 | 0:46:22 | |
I'm expecting the veal to be really thinly beaten, | 0:46:22 | 0:46:25 | |
to be really tenderised properly. | 0:46:25 | 0:46:27 | |
Otherwise, it could be really tough. | 0:46:27 | 0:46:29 | |
I love saltimbocca, but the most important thing is, | 0:46:29 | 0:46:31 | |
they've got a great sauce to go with that. | 0:46:31 | 0:46:33 | |
You have 45 minutes. | 0:46:35 | 0:46:38 | |
-Crikey. -Shut the front door. | 0:46:38 | 0:46:40 | |
Oskar, we've only got three quarters of an hour left. | 0:46:40 | 0:46:43 | |
I know. I heard. I heard. | 0:46:43 | 0:46:45 | |
-NADIYA: -Both Betty and Jessica are at the critical stage | 0:46:45 | 0:46:47 | |
of their pasta making. | 0:46:47 | 0:46:50 | |
I'm just going to roll the pasta out into a very thin strip. | 0:46:50 | 0:46:53 | |
I think the Markses are going to have a problem with their pasta. | 0:46:54 | 0:46:57 | |
The pasta is very soft. The stuffing is very soft. | 0:46:57 | 0:46:59 | |
-That's what I... -There is no egg in the stuffing, | 0:46:59 | 0:47:01 | |
so when it's going to cook, it's going to soften. | 0:47:01 | 0:47:03 | |
That's what I was worried about, the texture. | 0:47:03 | 0:47:05 | |
It's a proper pasta-off, though, isn't it? | 0:47:06 | 0:47:08 | |
I'm getting a right sweat on. | 0:47:08 | 0:47:10 | |
Oh, well done, Betty. | 0:47:11 | 0:47:12 | |
I've never felt so nervous making pasta before. | 0:47:15 | 0:47:18 | |
Those two are a bit close, aren't they? | 0:47:20 | 0:47:22 | |
-Next bit. -I'm happy with the thickness of my pasta. | 0:47:22 | 0:47:26 | |
It'll have some bite, but it's thin enough. | 0:47:26 | 0:47:29 | |
So, just blow. | 0:47:29 | 0:47:30 | |
-You can see the ripple. -How's it going over there? | 0:47:31 | 0:47:34 | |
Can we have a little nosy? | 0:47:34 | 0:47:35 | |
- Hi, Torun. - Are you spying on us, Betty? | 0:47:42 | 0:47:46 | |
I know how to do it now. | 0:47:48 | 0:47:49 | |
Going around, cupping. | 0:47:49 | 0:47:52 | |
Oh, here he is, right at the crucial moment. | 0:47:52 | 0:47:54 | |
The spectre at the feast. | 0:47:56 | 0:47:58 | |
OK, you have 15 minutes. | 0:48:00 | 0:48:02 | |
This is ridiculous. | 0:48:03 | 0:48:05 | |
What's ridiculous? | 0:48:05 | 0:48:07 | |
Everything! | 0:48:07 | 0:48:08 | |
I think the Charleses have left a lot to do at the end. | 0:48:08 | 0:48:11 | |
The saltimbocca needs to be done at the end. | 0:48:11 | 0:48:14 | |
The sauce needs to be finished at the end. | 0:48:14 | 0:48:16 | |
The pasta needs to be cooked and dressed at the end. | 0:48:16 | 0:48:18 | |
They should be aware what they're up against, the timing side. | 0:48:18 | 0:48:22 | |
I'm hoping that they've understood that. | 0:48:22 | 0:48:23 | |
-We are getting pushed now. -Yeah, we are. | 0:48:23 | 0:48:25 | |
-Right, get your... -Let's get this mash out. | 0:48:25 | 0:48:27 | |
Jean, do the mash. | 0:48:27 | 0:48:28 | |
It's stress o'clock. | 0:48:30 | 0:48:32 | |
We need to get the fish in the grill. | 0:48:32 | 0:48:34 | |
Oh, my God. Oskar, we've really got to get moving. | 0:48:34 | 0:48:37 | |
Now for the delicate herb crust. | 0:48:37 | 0:48:39 | |
Oskar must place each piece on top of the fish without it breaking. | 0:48:39 | 0:48:44 | |
My hand's shaking. Come on, stay together. | 0:48:45 | 0:48:48 | |
Stay together! Stay together. | 0:48:48 | 0:48:51 | |
Stay together. Yes. | 0:48:51 | 0:48:53 | |
-Stressed. -Quick. -We're stressed at the moment. -Put it in the grill. | 0:48:53 | 0:48:56 | |
Oh, careful. Careful. | 0:48:56 | 0:48:57 | |
-Don't you want to get the saltimbocca on? -Oh, yeah. | 0:49:02 | 0:49:05 | |
A couple of minutes each side and then I'm going to wrap them in foil | 0:49:07 | 0:49:11 | |
-and rest them. -Time's running out. | 0:49:11 | 0:49:12 | |
The ravs are on. I would have liked them boiled a bit longer, | 0:49:12 | 0:49:15 | |
if I'm honest. I don't know if I could still take them out | 0:49:15 | 0:49:17 | |
and boil them for a bit more. Yeah, I need to. | 0:49:17 | 0:49:20 | |
-What do you want this on? -Highest. | 0:49:20 | 0:49:22 | |
-NADIYA: -Betty is not the only one having problems with her pasta. | 0:49:23 | 0:49:26 | |
These are overcooked. | 0:49:26 | 0:49:28 | |
-They are, did you say? -They are collapsing. | 0:49:28 | 0:49:31 | |
It's a disaster. | 0:49:31 | 0:49:33 | |
-DAN: -We need to start plating, guys. | 0:49:33 | 0:49:35 | |
They're plating up at the other side. | 0:49:35 | 0:49:37 | |
With time almost up, | 0:49:40 | 0:49:42 | |
Dan still hasn't made a Marsala sauce for his saltimbocca. | 0:49:42 | 0:49:45 | |
He starts by melting butter, before adding the Marsala wine. | 0:49:45 | 0:49:49 | |
-Guys, you've got one minute left. -Right, OK. | 0:49:53 | 0:49:55 | |
Right, OK, get it on. | 0:50:03 | 0:50:05 | |
-Ten seconds, ten seconds. -Get the sauce on. Go, go, go. | 0:50:05 | 0:50:07 | |
Keep going with it, I think. | 0:50:09 | 0:50:11 | |
Just take the best bits of that. | 0:50:11 | 0:50:13 | |
OK. | 0:50:13 | 0:50:15 | |
-Quick, quick, quick. -Time's up! | 0:50:16 | 0:50:18 | |
Does it not matter? | 0:50:18 | 0:50:20 | |
I haven't got presentation. | 0:50:23 | 0:50:25 | |
You have, it looks beautiful. | 0:50:25 | 0:50:26 | |
It was so much harder, because it just means a lot more today. | 0:50:29 | 0:50:33 | |
We're just so pushed for time at the end. | 0:50:33 | 0:50:35 | |
We've just... We've... I could cry. | 0:50:35 | 0:50:37 | |
Don't cry. Come on. | 0:50:37 | 0:50:38 | |
Oh, don't. You're going to make me cry. | 0:50:38 | 0:50:41 | |
-NADIYA: -The Marks' starter is Jessica's agnolotti | 0:50:44 | 0:50:47 | |
filled with goat's cheese, walnuts, | 0:50:47 | 0:50:49 | |
honey and thyme, topped with a lemon sauce and crispy pancetta. | 0:50:49 | 0:50:53 | |
If I was your neighbour, I would be very happy with this, | 0:50:55 | 0:50:57 | |
although, I have to say one thing - | 0:50:57 | 0:50:59 | |
these are not agnolotti. These are mezzaluna. | 0:50:59 | 0:51:03 | |
-Oh, really? OK. -Mezzaluna. Half a moon. | 0:51:03 | 0:51:06 | |
-Half a moon. -Agnolotti are square or rectangular. -Oh, OK. | 0:51:06 | 0:51:09 | |
I don't think that the pasta has the right crunch. | 0:51:16 | 0:51:21 | |
It is a little bit soft on the teeth. | 0:51:21 | 0:51:25 | |
That's a bit disappointing. | 0:51:25 | 0:51:26 | |
-Yeah. -The filling is really delicious. | 0:51:26 | 0:51:29 | |
I had some doubt on it, because I thought it was going to be soft. | 0:51:29 | 0:51:32 | |
But it really holds up. | 0:51:32 | 0:51:33 | |
The walnuts come through, the lemon comes through. | 0:51:33 | 0:51:35 | |
I am really, really happy with that flavour. | 0:51:35 | 0:51:37 | |
It's firmer than I thought it was going to be. | 0:51:37 | 0:51:40 | |
I like the little crunch on the top with your bacon. | 0:51:40 | 0:51:43 | |
That adds another level of texture in the mouth. | 0:51:43 | 0:51:46 | |
That's a very good dish. | 0:51:46 | 0:51:48 | |
-Thank you. -Well done. | 0:51:48 | 0:51:50 | |
For their main course, they're serving Oskar's poached cod | 0:51:52 | 0:51:55 | |
with a lemon and dill breadcrumb crust, Jerusalem artichoke puree, | 0:51:55 | 0:52:00 | |
crispy carrots and pea sauce. | 0:52:00 | 0:52:02 | |
Oh, that's exactly what I'm after. | 0:52:06 | 0:52:09 | |
You can see every single flake. | 0:52:09 | 0:52:12 | |
That fish... | 0:52:21 | 0:52:22 | |
..is absolutely lovely. | 0:52:24 | 0:52:26 | |
It's exactly what I was hoping it would be like. | 0:52:26 | 0:52:30 | |
The crust is very good, | 0:52:30 | 0:52:32 | |
and that pea sauce has such a strong flavour! | 0:52:32 | 0:52:35 | |
-Mm. -That really brings it alive. | 0:52:35 | 0:52:38 | |
I wouldn't mind being your neighbour. | 0:52:38 | 0:52:40 | |
Technically, perfect. | 0:52:40 | 0:52:42 | |
I like that sweetness to come through. | 0:52:42 | 0:52:44 | |
That pea and the crust really works very, very well. | 0:52:44 | 0:52:48 | |
This is a very accomplished dish. | 0:52:48 | 0:52:52 | |
Not only have you impressed the neighbours, | 0:52:53 | 0:52:55 | |
but I guess you've impressed the judges as well today. | 0:52:55 | 0:52:58 | |
Thank you. | 0:52:58 | 0:53:00 | |
-NADIYA: -The Charles family starter is Betty's crab and prawn ravioli, | 0:53:04 | 0:53:07 | |
served in a seafood bisque. | 0:53:07 | 0:53:09 | |
So, how are you? | 0:53:11 | 0:53:13 | |
-Bag of nerves. -I think the last 15 minutes would have scared | 0:53:13 | 0:53:17 | |
the neighbours more than impress them. | 0:53:17 | 0:53:19 | |
Absolutely. | 0:53:19 | 0:53:20 | |
Silky, al dente, perfect pasta. | 0:53:32 | 0:53:36 | |
Perfect pasta. | 0:53:37 | 0:53:39 | |
A little bit grainy and under-seasoned, the stuffing. | 0:53:40 | 0:53:44 | |
I would expect it to be a little bit more smooth, | 0:53:45 | 0:53:48 | |
but the flavours are there. | 0:53:48 | 0:53:49 | |
I agree with Giorgio with the filling - | 0:53:49 | 0:53:51 | |
little bit grainy, but also dry. | 0:53:51 | 0:53:53 | |
If you didn't have that bisque there, it would be a problem. | 0:53:53 | 0:53:57 | |
I really like the touch. | 0:53:57 | 0:53:59 | |
-Oh, it's good. -And the little bit of the samphire. | 0:53:59 | 0:54:01 | |
-It's really good. -Thank you. -Thank you. -Well done. | 0:54:01 | 0:54:05 | |
For their main course, | 0:54:05 | 0:54:06 | |
they're serving saltimbocca with roasted garlic mash, cavolo nero, | 0:54:06 | 0:54:11 | |
Marsala sauce, and pear crisps. | 0:54:11 | 0:54:14 | |
You cooked the meat very, very well. | 0:54:26 | 0:54:27 | |
Unfortunately, you messed up on that sauce. | 0:54:30 | 0:54:32 | |
The sauce is greasy, split. | 0:54:35 | 0:54:37 | |
And it makes everything a bit greasy. | 0:54:37 | 0:54:39 | |
Melting the butter before, that was wrong. | 0:54:41 | 0:54:43 | |
Put the Marsala, put the juices, | 0:54:43 | 0:54:45 | |
reduce, then you put your butter in it... | 0:54:45 | 0:54:48 | |
-OK. -..instead of bringing together the sauce as a separate dish. | 0:54:48 | 0:54:53 | |
I'm maybe more disappointed than you about this. | 0:54:54 | 0:54:57 | |
Definitely not. | 0:54:57 | 0:54:59 | |
Very disappointed. | 0:54:59 | 0:55:00 | |
Unfortunately, it's too fatty. | 0:55:00 | 0:55:02 | |
-It's greasy. -OK. | 0:55:02 | 0:55:04 | |
With all three challenges completed, | 0:55:06 | 0:55:08 | |
the judges must now decide which family | 0:55:08 | 0:55:10 | |
to put through to the semifinals. | 0:55:10 | 0:55:14 | |
This is a really tough decision. | 0:55:14 | 0:55:15 | |
It's going to be very difficult, | 0:55:15 | 0:55:17 | |
because we need to take everything into consideration. | 0:55:17 | 0:55:20 | |
We know we could have done better. | 0:55:20 | 0:55:21 | |
-100%. -We know... Yeah. It's just so annoying. | 0:55:21 | 0:55:25 | |
The first challenge with the risotto from the Charleses was amazing. | 0:55:25 | 0:55:28 | |
That was one of the best risottos I've ever had in my life. | 0:55:28 | 0:55:31 | |
At their home, the chicken was incredible, | 0:55:31 | 0:55:33 | |
but also, so was the dessert. | 0:55:33 | 0:55:35 | |
-Today... -I was disappointed with their main course. | 0:55:35 | 0:55:38 | |
We could've done the Marsala with half an hour to go. | 0:55:38 | 0:55:41 | |
Just silly things to forget. | 0:55:41 | 0:55:43 | |
Too much in the last few minutes. | 0:55:43 | 0:55:45 | |
-We have to hope that they'll give us a chance. -Yeah. | 0:55:45 | 0:55:47 | |
The Marks' meatballs, I thought they were very good. | 0:55:50 | 0:55:53 | |
-But, Rosemary, meatballs are meatballs, come on. -I know, I know. | 0:55:53 | 0:55:57 | |
The fish soup was very disappointing. | 0:55:57 | 0:55:59 | |
-Hm. -But their apple crumble, I still remember it. | 0:55:59 | 0:56:02 | |
They really raised their game today. | 0:56:02 | 0:56:04 | |
That fish was amazing. | 0:56:04 | 0:56:06 | |
-Is it good or is it bad? -I don't know. I can't figure it out. | 0:56:07 | 0:56:11 | |
I felt that they praised us here. | 0:56:11 | 0:56:13 | |
I think both families have made amazingly good food. | 0:56:15 | 0:56:18 | |
Food that comes from the heart. | 0:56:18 | 0:56:20 | |
Families, after a lengthy discussion, | 0:56:31 | 0:56:34 | |
the judges have come to a decision. | 0:56:34 | 0:56:36 | |
The judges have taken into account all three challenges, | 0:56:39 | 0:56:42 | |
and let me tell you, they have found it extremely difficult. | 0:56:42 | 0:56:45 | |
So, this is it. | 0:56:47 | 0:56:50 | |
The family who are staying in the competition and going through | 0:56:50 | 0:56:54 | |
to the semifinal are... | 0:56:54 | 0:56:57 | |
-The Charles family. -Oh, my God! | 0:57:02 | 0:57:04 | |
No, wait, wait. Sorry, sorry. | 0:57:08 | 0:57:10 | |
-Congratulations. -Well done, guys. Well done. | 0:57:10 | 0:57:12 | |
-Bless you. -I'm so happy for you. I'm so happy for you. | 0:57:15 | 0:57:20 | |
-I'm all of a doo-dah. -You are! -I can't believe it. | 0:57:20 | 0:57:23 | |
-I'm all of a doo-dah. -I can't believe that. -Oh, wow. | 0:57:23 | 0:57:28 | |
It was a really hard decision today, | 0:57:28 | 0:57:30 | |
but I think we take the right decision. | 0:57:30 | 0:57:32 | |
The Charleses, they had little wobble today, | 0:57:32 | 0:57:35 | |
but were good all the way through. Consistently. | 0:57:35 | 0:57:37 | |
We're disappointed, but I'm really happy for the Charleses. | 0:57:39 | 0:57:41 | |
-But that's life. -I think it's... you know. -They're lovely. | 0:57:41 | 0:57:44 | |
We'll be rooting for them, definitely. | 0:57:44 | 0:57:46 | |
Oh. | 0:57:47 | 0:57:49 | |
The Markses have done incredibly well. | 0:57:49 | 0:57:52 | |
They've certainly upped their game today, | 0:57:52 | 0:57:54 | |
but it was just a little bit too late. | 0:57:54 | 0:57:57 | |
-DAN: -We absolutely can't wait to come back and do it all again. | 0:57:57 | 0:58:00 | |
We've had the best time. | 0:58:00 | 0:58:02 | |
I can't believe it. I can't believe it. | 0:58:02 | 0:58:04 | |
I can't believe it. | 0:58:04 | 0:58:06 | |
-There's some love going on, baby. -It's pizza with love. | 0:58:11 | 0:58:15 | |
Brussels sprouts should not be on pizzas. | 0:58:15 | 0:58:18 | |
-Why not? -Make sure the meat goes in the pot, please! | 0:58:18 | 0:58:22 | |
Who are you talking to? | 0:58:22 | 0:58:24 | |
Does she not know you're the boss? | 0:58:24 | 0:58:25 | |
Don't panic. | 0:58:25 | 0:58:27 | |
LOUD CRASH | 0:58:28 | 0:58:30 |
