Good morning. We have a star- studded line-up of incredible food | :00:10. | :00:20. | |
:00:20. | :00:36. | ||
for you, put your feet up and Welcome to the show. Cooking with | :00:36. | :00:42. | |
me live are two of the finest chefs in Britain. First, the man who's | :00:42. | :00:48. | |
turned the road underneath the Clifton Bridge on the A52 outside | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
Nottingham into one of the world's gastronomic hot spots, Sat Bains. | :00:54. | :01:03. | |
Next to him a man with two Michelin stars, the food he serves at | :01:03. | :01:09. | |
Hibiscus is some of the most innovative in the country. It's | :01:09. | :01:19. | |
:01:19. | :01:21. | ||
Claude Bosi. Sat, what are you doing. Salmon with cabbage. | :01:21. | :01:28. | |
have pickled turnip. Follow that then, Claude. Celeriac risotto, | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
with no rice. Winter truffle, very simple. The celeriac, the idea is | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
you finely dice it and you have got some winter truffles because the | :01:39. | :01:49. | |
:01:49. | :01:49. | ||
season's about to change. Because we think with Chinese grapefruit, | :01:49. | :01:56. | |
at the same time. The celeriac will be shape of rice. You do that. | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
Thanks very much! Two top-class recipes from the boys and we have a | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
great line-up of classic films from the archive for you to also enjoy. | :02:05. | :02:12. | |
They're from Rick Stein, and Keith Floyd. Now our special guest is a | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
genuine American Rock 'n' Roll star, his hits Wicked Game and Blue Hotel | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
gave his success all over the world. Please welcome the brilliant Chris | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
Isaak. Great to have you on the show. Good to be here. You are a | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
keen cook then, do you fancy those dishes? I can cook. I cook one dish. | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
That's it, right? I live by the ocean. I am surfing all the time. I | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
notice there's mussels around where I surf so I started taking them | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
back to my house and cooking them up. Sounds good to me. The first | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
two times it wasn't very good but about the third time starting to | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
sound good. Congratulations on your new album by the way. Thank you. | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
was out last month. It's been out about a month. We are having a ball | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
playing it live. All over the world as well, because you are touring | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
again in the US next week. I never like to look ahead, I will get | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
tired if I do. You are actually touring next week in the US, of | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
course you are here to eat. Food Heaven or food hell. It will be | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
something based on your favourite ingredients or nightmare | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
ingredients. It's up to our guests and some viewers to decide which | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
which one. Food Heaven, which would it be? It's kind of strange but I | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
like sardines. Not strange for me. It's not a real popular dish, when | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
I talk to other people. A lot of people have them in tins. If you | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
get fresh they're delicious. I will eat them you out of the tin, I like | :03:44. | :03:50. | |
them double layered. I don't like the greasy ones. I am on the road | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
all the time travelling and my suitcase has sardines in it. What | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
about dreaded food hell? It's not something most people would dread | :03:57. | :04:03. | |
but mint is not - I don't like the flavour. It should be saved just | :04:03. | :04:09. | |
for chewing gum. There you go. Sardines or mint for Chris's food | :04:09. | :04:16. | |
Heaven or hell. Something Mediterranean, you are a fan - the | :04:16. | :04:22. | |
fish is filleted and layered with potatoes, marjoram and baked in the | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
oven served with rocket on the top, how does that sound? I will take it. | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
Food hell Chris could be facing that mint to make a stunning | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
dessert, a peppermint and chocolate parfait. The mint is used to infuse | :04:35. | :04:41. | |
into a custard made with milk, eggs and cream, and put in the freezer | :04:41. | :04:48. | |
and served with a praline custard. That's not good. That can make kids | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
very sick I think. Children tonight shouldn't be eating that. Exactly! | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
Thank you very much. Bigging up my dish. You have to wait to see which | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
one Chris gets. Let's meet the other guests. They're two viewers, | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
Kim you wrote in, who have you brought with you? My daughter, | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
Hannah. You are doing what most people are doing in the moment, we | :05:09. | :05:16. | |
have this big explosion with bacon. Everybody is making cuptakes -- | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
cupcakes. I would probably try that par frustrate that sounds -- | :05:21. | :05:27. | |
parfait that sounds nice. I did home-made ice-creams. What's the | :05:27. | :05:34. | |
best dish, Hannah. Confit of duck. Slowly cooked. If you have any | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
questions don't hesitate, fire away. Two star Michelin chefs on the show | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
and you get to sty what -- help to decide what Chris will be be eating. | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
I will be nice to them! I will sing right to you. If you would like to | :05:48. | :05:58. | |
:05:58. | :06:02. | ||
ask a question on the show you can A view of you will be able to put | :06:02. | :06:10. | |
your questions to us us liver later -- live later. Right, let's get | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
cooking. First a Nottingham man behind one of the best restaurants | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
in Britain, you are going to enjoy this dish, you are not going to be | :06:16. | :06:22. | |
able to follow it but you will enjoy it. It's the brilliant sat | :06:22. | :06:30. | |
sat -- Sat Bains. This is a really simple dish. Go on then. It's | :06:30. | :06:36. | |
salmon, organic. Good source. It's just poached in a confit of duck, | :06:36. | :06:46. | |
:06:46. | :06:46. | ||
done in oil. I am going to make a teabag with spices. Puree of this. | :06:46. | :06:52. | |
Little bit of brassicas. Cabbage juice, which is amazing and make a | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
ketchup. You want to get on and start that. I am going to do the | :06:56. | :07:06. | |
:07:06. | :07:09. | ||
this one of the dishes from your your restaurant? It's on the menu | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
at the moment. The season is changing, it's visually beautiful. | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
The contrast is incredible. It's a beautiful fatty piece of salmon and | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
that's cooked slowly, around 45 degrees and as soon as we get the | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
pan up to temperature we just pull it off. A lot of people will be | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
worried about cooking things that low. Well, in fairness fish does | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
cook at that temperature and it will be tender. I am going to | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
infuse this first. There is the salmon, took the skin off the | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
bloodline. This is the oil. Tops of the leeks, spring onions and chives | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
in there, plain oil. Here is the oil I am going to poach in. Pine is | :07:51. | :07:59. | |
very very citrus. Some thyme and juniper and coriander seeds and | :07:59. | :08:09. | |
:08:09. | :08:12. | ||
wrap this up. I call it a teabag because I am from Nottingham. | :08:12. | :08:17. | |
is tree pine. We are going to tie that up. The idea is we infuse it | :08:17. | :08:24. | |
in the actual oil and the idea is you leave that for a - up to about | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
three or four hours and reheat up to 45. I have done that already. | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
You are infusing the oil before you cook the salmon. You want that | :08:31. | :08:38. | |
perfume. If you are worried about the blender, don't, because it's | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
only just started. About another ten more to go. If you taste this | :08:42. | :08:52. | |
:08:52. | :08:54. | ||
now, James, you will see. It's quite arrow matic. It's like a | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
really good olive oil. That's the salmon there. Pop that into the one | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
at the back. You want me to do a little turnip pickle. I like to | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
play with lots of acidity. This ketchup here is an old traditional | :09:10. | :09:16. | |
dish where things like ketchup was from an old age. You used to have | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
mushroom ketchup and cucumber. This is one with red cabbage. I have | :09:21. | :09:28. | |
mirin in here, sweet acidic rice wine. Some soy. We have some agar, | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
a setting agent, as soon as it comes up to simmer, you take it | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
straight off and it sets in the fridge like a nice jel. We have had | :09:37. | :09:44. | |
this on the show before you pwts -- but it's not like cornflour. This | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
is seaweed-based and sets at a higher temperature. Also the | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
melting point is a high temperature, as well. It's really good for doing | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
things like purees because it suspends the liquid in the actual | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
puree. It's good for jellies. Without a doubt. That goes in here. | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
That's come up to simmer. Again the secret is you have to taste this. A | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
lot of people will be going urgh! Cabbage juice, but it's delicious | :10:07. | :10:16. | |
actually. Urgh! It's delicious. It's about 80 dollars this cabbage | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
juice. Tell us about your restaurant. You have rooms with it | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
as well. Eight bedrooms. You have recently got your second star. | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
did, yeah. We were blown away by it all in terms of the accolade. I | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
have always said it from day one, it's a massive team effort. What we | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
do at the restaurant, we are in a strange location as you pointed out, | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
but we try to celebrate that by also doing things that are rustic. | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
We celebrate the region, the locality of the produce from that | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
region and hopefully puts us on the map for the right reason. | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
getting two stars changed in terms of - it must have changed business. | :10:52. | :10:58. | |
Without a doubt. It puts you on the map. That's what - it's a massive | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
accolade. We are off the beaten track, under the A52 flyover, | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
what's nice is drawing people there and what is drawing them is the | :11:07. | :11:12. | |
food. The food has got more complicated? Not at all. This is | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
the simplest dish I have ever done. Right, I have lost it. Broccoli | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
cooking there. This is the actual one that's set. That needs to be | :11:20. | :11:27. | |
pureed. Show us the difference. Let's look at this. You can warm | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
that up? Not now, once you add the agar. I can't remember which | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
blender it was, James. This one. That's for the broccoli. It's got a | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
great colour with this. This is the point T looks like a ketchup, and | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
when you taste it it's acidic and tart and this lovely cabbage | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
flavour which is something that's very much in season and you want to | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
celebrate that. Spring is around the corner, it looks vibrant. I | :11:53. | :12:03. | |
:12:03. | :12:07. | ||
love it. It's one of those dishes... Brassicas get a bad rep. Talking of | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
that, broccoli. Just blend it. Nothing, just blend it. That's | :12:12. | :12:17. | |
cooking away. As well as doing the restaurant, you are working on your | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
first book. That comes out in September. It took us two years. | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
Everyone keeps asking when it's out. It's because it's our first book, | :12:25. | :12:31. | |
the pressure is on to get it right. We are self-publishing it and the | :12:31. | :12:34. | |
idea is it's dishes from the restaurant we have done over the | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
last seven or eight years. I wanted to be honest and all the dishes, | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
the way they're photographed they're done in real photography | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
terms. It looks like what you get in the restaurant. We haven't a | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
food stylist. What you see in the book is what you would get at the | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
restaurant. Sounds good to me. we have florets of cauliflower, | :12:54. | :13:02. | |
purple sprouting broccoli and again it adds texture to the dish. Purple | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
sprouting is in season. There is the oil. Look at that, that's the | :13:06. | :13:11. | |
tops of the leeks, that's the spring onion and chives blended | :13:11. | :13:16. | |
with normal oil. That's a brilliant job. Better than ours. Thank you, | :13:17. | :13:21. | |
chef. Now you are going to ruin it! Warm chicken stock and that gives | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
body to the dish and warm that oil through. What you end up with is | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
amazing split dressing. That adds a great depth to the dish itself. | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
am going to use the other blender here to blend up my broccoli with | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
this juice as well. If you would like to ask a question you can call | :13:38. | :13:46. | |
this number: A few of you will get to put your | :13:46. | :13:52. | |
questions to us live later. You can find all the recipes on today's | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
show at our website. Don't ask me what I am doing, I am lost! That's | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
the turnip you pickled. That's what it looks like after two hours. So | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
you want to do that in advance. That's the one I am going to use. | :14:06. | :14:12. | |
We have a puree in here. Another one. This is the broccoli. We are | :14:12. | :14:18. | |
nearly there. How are we doing? Getting there, I think. Do you want | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
salt in there or something? Taste it, because I put a lot of salt in | :14:21. | :14:31. | |
:14:31. | :14:32. | ||
the water. OK. The salmon itself is very soft. I am going to get it out | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
with a spoon. The idea is that it should be very soft textured, | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
almost like a confit. It looks as if it's not cooked. Because we have | :14:42. | :14:48. | |
kept it below 45 degrees. Anything over that it starts getting white. | :14:48. | :14:55. | |
Smell that now, all that pine is in there, been there two and a half | :14:55. | :15:01. | |
hours. Smells good. Little caramelisation there. We turn these | :15:01. | :15:11. | |
:15:11. | :15:19. | ||
off to save a bit of gas. Ready when you are. That's it. Yeah. | :15:20. | :15:25. | |
feel like I am on a shopping channel. Let's have a look. Done | :15:25. | :15:32. | |
with that one. Look at that. It's smooth, look at that. That's | :15:32. | :15:40. | |
cabbage water. That's very nice. Cabbage ketchup. I am trying to | :15:40. | :15:47. | |
make it sound lovely. I am impressed with that. All we do, a | :15:47. | :15:57. | |
:15:57. | :15:59. | ||
little bit on the base. I am doing two because the salmon is quite | :15:59. | :16:09. | |
:16:09. | :16:09. | ||
small and I know Claude is at the end, he does like a nice portion. | :16:10. | :16:16. | |
That's just cauliflower and broccoli that you have sauteed. | :16:16. | :16:22. | |
Then just sit the puree here, which is very nice, and textured. | :16:22. | :16:27. | |
there a lump in it? No, not at all. It's beautiful! Just get it on the | :16:27. | :16:34. | |
plate. One of the best purees I have ever seen. Thank you. There we | :16:34. | :16:41. | |
Again we put this little purple sprouting here. Lots of different | :16:41. | :16:46. | |
textures, roasted cauliflower. That sits there. As you bite into it you | :16:46. | :16:55. | |
have the warm, cold, pickled, puree. Lovely salmon that's really juicy. | :16:55. | :17:03. | |
Do you cook all fish like that? Just salmon for this. I have this | :17:03. | :17:11. | |
lovely pickled turnip. Have a taste, again sweet and sour. Good to me. | :17:11. | :17:19. | |
But it's still crunchy, that's the beauty. Just going to finish it | :17:19. | :17:27. | |
with my sauce. I have you some radishes there. This is the onion | :17:28. | :17:34. | |
oil, very vibrant. Lovely acidity to it. It almost splits that. | :17:34. | :17:44. | |
:17:44. | :17:46. | ||
splits with the actual chicken stock. Lovely dressing. Remind us | :17:46. | :17:56. | |
:17:56. | :17:59. | ||
what that is. Salmon poached in pine and thyme oil and brassicas, | :17:59. | :18:04. | |
pureed ketchup and lovely turnips and radishes over. Looks good to me. | :18:04. | :18:14. | |
:18:14. | :18:16. | ||
How do you it at home, I haven't a Right, you take one and I will take | :18:16. | :18:24. | |
one. Chris can have one. Dive into that. I will put one here, dive | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
into that one. Tell us what you think of that. I don't know whether | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
this will be the second dish that you ever create, but the difference | :18:33. | :18:36. | |
in textures and that's what you are known for. The salmon looks like | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
it's raw but it just melts in the mouth. You need to leave that for | :18:41. | :18:48. | |
about two hours. You could reuse that oil. Over and over. Happy with | :18:48. | :18:54. | |
that? Very good. I know a lot about cooking salmon, my pwutdy -- buddy | :18:54. | :19:00. | |
in Acas ka -- Alaska sent me a full salmon, it was frozen when I got it, | :19:00. | :19:05. | |
I cut it up into steaks in my garage and every night I would take | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
a steak out and put it in a plastic bag and stick it in the microwave | :19:10. | :19:20. | |
:19:20. | :19:21. | ||
and it was delicious. You can't screw it up, it's salmon. Serve it | :19:21. | :19:27. | |
with cabbage water and you will be all right. I might be pushing it, | :19:27. | :19:33. | |
but I think you are doing better. High praise indeed. We need some | :19:33. | :19:43. | |
wine to go with this, we sent our wine expert to Cambridgeshire this | :19:43. | :19:52. | |
I am at Peterborough cathedral, spring is springing and we have | :19:52. | :20:02. | |
:20:02. | :20:04. | ||
culinary ar artiste in the kitchen and we need wine. Sat's salmon is | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
colourful and theatrical in style you might think it's a little bit | :20:08. | :20:11. | |
bonkers but you would be wrong because while it's original, it's | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
also totally seasonal and utterly delicious. What it's not is easy to | :20:15. | :20:25. | |
:20:25. | :20:25. | ||
match a wine to. So you could go for a cool slug of vodka or Schapps | :20:25. | :20:35. | |
:20:35. | :20:43. | ||
or carry on with the gin and tonic. I have found a bargain over wine | :20:43. | :20:53. | |
:20:53. | :20:53. | ||
this week, it's from New Zealand, it's Sauvignon Blanc and it's the | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
fabulous Composite. Sometimes it's not just about picking out | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
individual flavours, it's about the overall feel of a dish and I know | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
Sat, you say this is designed to make you feel light and ready for | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
spring and that's exactly what this wine does. It's beautifully tangy, | :21:10. | :21:20. | |
it's scented to tie in with that lovely tprag rant oil -- fragrant | :21:20. | :21:25. | |
oil. It's lovely and earthy on the finish with those brassicas and | :21:25. | :21:31. | |
root veg. It's an inspired dish, all I can do is raise a glass. | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
It certainly is inspired. I know it's going well there. What do you | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
reckon to the wine? Fantastic. Reminds me of spring. A bargain | :21:39. | :21:45. | |
this one under �6. Claude, what do you reckon? I like it. What about | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
the ketchup? Just missing some chips with it. Another compliment | :21:49. | :21:54. | |
for you! Later Claude has a stunning recipe, remind us what it | :21:55. | :22:02. | |
is. One dish made with risotto, with no rice, just celeriac. | :22:02. | :22:07. | |
guess who is chopping it! Now it's time to catch up with Rick Stein, | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
today he is championing one of my favourite things, watercress. But | :22:10. | :22:20. | |
:22:20. | :22:33. | ||
first necessary Dorset looking for complete without including Hardy's | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
During World War II, the farmers weren't allowed to make vinney. | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
They were under strict instructions- to produce a hard, durable cheese that was easy to transport. | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
To think that we almost lost these local skills, like cutting curds and draining the whey. | :22:43. | :22:49. | |
Stories abound about the making of blue vinney. | :22:49. | :22:51. | |
It's widely believed that sweaty horse harnesses were thrown into the curd to create the mould. | :22:51. | :22:58. | |
Until Mike revived it, what we were- really all buying was second-rate Stilton sold on the cheap. | :22:58. | :23:04. | |
As some said, "You could buy the real thing, but only by moonlight." | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
It was so mysterious that peopleused to put in an order and then itwould just end up on your doorstep. | :23:08. | :23:15. | |
And nobody knew who made it or where it came from. Well, that's how the story goes. | :23:15. | :23:22. | |
She's spiking the cheese with mould. "Vinney" is Old English for mould. | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
I have noticed their real sense of pride in the cheese's rarity. | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
We have seen it in Harrods' coolers. | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
And, yes, it's pride, thinking, "I've had part of that." | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
If I was a vegetarian, which thankfully I am not, this would be sort of dish I'd like, | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
because it's light, it's full of colour, it's full of flavour and above all I think it's exciting. | :23:43. | :23:50. | |
It's a tart of oven-dried tomatoes,- blue vinney cheese and rocket. | :23:50. | :23:56. | |
So, first, to oven-dry the tomatoes. | :23:56. | :23:59. | |
They need to go into a low oven for a long time - about an hour and a half. | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
The purpose really is to dry them out, to concentrate the flavour of the tomato. | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
The cheese is lovely and crumbly blue vinney, ideal for the tart, | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
because it's easy to sprinkle over the top. Bake some puff pastry- and layer it with the tomatoes. | :24:15. | :24:22. | |
Now you sprinkle the cheese over the top and add lots of thyme. | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
Thyme is a strong herb and it works- very well with that strong cheese, blue vinney. | :24:27. | :24:32. | |
Finally, sprinkle with olive oil and pop it back in the oven. | :24:32. | :24:38. | |
Now, you can use cheeses other than blue vinney. Feta, for example, works very well. | :24:38. | :24:44. | |
But there is something about blue vinney, it's the mould in it, the slight taint which makes it special. | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
Finish the tart off with some lovely, fresh, peppery rocket and more virgin olive oil. | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
The combination of the freshness of- the rocket and the warm, crisp tart- makes this a wonderful dish. | :24:57. | :25:04. | |
TRAIN WHISTLES | :25:05. | :25:12. | |
The Watercress Line cuts through the chalky meadows of the Meon Valley. | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
I am on my way to a watercress farm- owned by Neil Allen. | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
Neil restored these abandoned growing tanks and, although he is surrounded by huge cress farms, | :25:22. | :25:29. | |
you can only get HIS watercress at the local farmers' markets in Winchester and Romsey. | :25:29. | :25:35. | |
Watercress thrives in very cold, pure, swift-running water. | :25:35. | :25:41. | |
Springs that well up through the chalk are one of the few places in the country where this is plentiful. | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
What do you like to eat it with? Cheese and Marmite sandwiches. | :25:43. | :25:44. | |
I find it terribly calming in a way, | :25:44. | :25:46. | |
watching people that, without thinking, are doing something incredibly skilful. | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
It's like watching a good fish filleter. | :25:50. | :25:53. | |
I once watched a guy carve a whole tuna with such surgical precision. | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
And the the way he's operating his knife, it's the same thing. It's sort of poetry to me. | :25:58. | :26:04. | |
How should the best watercress taste? As hot as possible. | :26:04. | :26:11. | |
It's a member of the mustard family so it should be hot. The bigger, the better, the hotter it gets. | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
I love seasonality in vegetables. The trouble is you can get everything from anywhere now. | :26:13. | :26:19. | |
Well, yeah. You to the supermarkets anywhere andthe watercress comes from Portugal. | :26:19. | :26:25. | |
What, watercress? Yes, they bring it in from SouthAfrica, Portugal, all over the place. | :26:25. | :26:31. | |
It's crazy. I mean, it's a natural native plant. It's ridiculous. Yes. | :26:31. | :26:36. | |
This is the sort of watercress you are likely to buy in supermarkets -- small-leafed and lacking in flavour. | :26:36. | :26:43. | |
THIS is the sort of watercress that Neil would like you to be able to buy. | :26:43. | :26:49. | |
It's much longer, it's more mature and it's got a lovely pepperiness to it. | :26:49. | :26:55. | |
Steak's often sent out with watercress like this. What's the point? It tastes of nothing. | :26:55. | :27:00. | |
It's just like a silly garnish. | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
But if you sent it out with this, it's very peppery and horseradishy,- and just what you need with beef. | :27:03. | :27:09. | |
Also I would use this for is one my favourite soups - potato and watercress soup. It's so simple. | :27:09. | :27:19. | |
:27:19. | :27:22. | ||
What immediately springs to mind when I think of Hampshire is wild brown trout, and watercress! | :27:22. | :27:24. | |
But it's also a great county for game. 90% of the time I just roast pheasant. | :27:24. | :27:30. | |
But here I have turned it into a rather pleasing, modern hot and cold, I suppose, first course. | :27:30. | :27:37. | |
I am just using the breasts and I am frying them quite gently in a black skillet, | :27:37. | :27:41. | |
having seasoned them very well with- salt and pepper. I want to keep them nice and moist in the middle. | :27:41. | :27:46. | |
It's a good idea to have a little skewer to push into the centre of a piece of meat like this. Pheasant. | :27:46. | :27:52. | |
Just touch it on your lip and you can tell very easily whether the thing is cooked or not. | :27:52. | :27:58. | |
It just needs to be warm in this case because you want pink inside. If it's hot, it's well done. | :27:58. | :28:03. | |
If it's cold, it's not cooked. | :28:03. | :28:06. | |
Now I am going to make a dressing with the juices from the pan. | :28:06. | :28:11. | |
I take the breasts out and keep them warm on a warm plate and add some balsamic vinegar to the pan. | :28:11. | :28:16. | |
I do what they call deglazing, | :28:16. | :28:19. | |
which just means scraping around the bottom of the pan to collect all those nice caramelised juices. | :28:19. | :28:24. | |
I put them into bowl and add chopped garlic and onion and then chopped chives. | :28:24. | :28:29. | |
Now, two oils. First, a small amount of walnut oil. | :28:29. | :28:33. | |
The nuttiness in that combines well- with pepperiness of the watercress. | :28:33. | :28:38. | |
And then a lot more olive oil. | :28:38. | :28:41. | |
And now slice the pheasant. | :28:41. | :28:44. | |
I am doing it quite thinly and I am doing it on the diagonal. It looks better sliced like that. | :28:44. | :28:50. | |
To assemble the salad, first watercress, then some slices of pheasant, then some saute potatoes. | :28:50. | :28:56. | |
That is a really interesting thing in a salad. This is a guaranteed way of enjoying pheasant. | :28:56. | :29:03. | |
Quite often when it's roasted, it's- dry, disappointing and tasteless. But this couldn't be more different. | :29:03. | :29:09. | |
And that's it. It's pretty appetising. | :29:09. | :29:13. | |
And I just love that combination of warm things and salad leaves. | :29:13. | :29:18. | |
It's a sort of variation of what the French call a "salade tiede". It's really good. | :29:18. | :29:28. | |
:29:28. | :29:37. | ||
Thank | :29:37. | :29:37. | |
Thank you, | :29:37. | :29:37. | |
Thank you, Rick. | :29:37. | :29:40. | |
Thank you, Rick. The less said about you and that film this week | :29:40. | :29:45. | |
the better. Instead I am going to give you a masterclass on something | :29:45. | :29:50. | |
that you will have in a jar in our fridge, it's mayonnaise. | :29:50. | :29:53. | |
Traditionally this would be done with vegetable oil and also with | :29:53. | :29:57. | |
normal egg yolks but the way you can change the flavour of this, not | :29:57. | :30:00. | |
by changing the recipe itself, is by changing the type of eggs that | :30:00. | :30:05. | |
you use and I am going to use organic egg yolks and you can see | :30:06. | :30:09. | |
the colour already. They go in there. Also I am going to change | :30:09. | :30:14. | |
the oil. Traditionally mayonnaise would be done with vegetable oil | :30:14. | :30:18. | |
and just plain eggs and we end up with this paler colour here, | :30:18. | :30:22. | |
nothing wrong with that and the flavour is vinegar or lemon juice, | :30:22. | :30:27. | |
but what I am going to do is change this differently and use rapeseed | :30:27. | :30:32. | |
oil. The guys there are a fan of. They used to - I don't know if you | :30:32. | :30:37. | |
have heard of this, they used to use this as pig feed, bigging it up | :30:37. | :30:44. | |
really! They cold press it now and use it as biofuel. It's yellow in | :30:44. | :30:49. | |
colour and you can see the colour. Gradually you pour the oil on to | :30:49. | :30:53. | |
the egg yolks using a blender like this and slowly pour it in. The | :30:53. | :30:57. | |
more oil you add the thicker it will become, but like making | :30:57. | :31:03. | |
anything that's egg yolks in it, it's emullsifying it, so you add it | :31:03. | :31:06. | |
slowly. Too quickly and it will split. You can never really go too | :31:07. | :31:10. | |
slowly. The more oil you add the thicker it becomes and you can | :31:10. | :31:13. | |
loosen it down with a touch of water or you have a little bit of | :31:13. | :31:18. | |
vinegar in here. I am going to use a touch of vinegar and mustard but | :31:18. | :31:22. | |
some chilli sauce, dipping sauce. And some of this, you were in Japan | :31:22. | :31:30. | |
for a while, this is yuzu juice. Just smell that, amazing smell. | :31:30. | :31:40. | |
:31:40. | :31:40. | ||
It's a cross between a satsuma and Mandarin. I boxed in Japan so I can | :31:41. | :31:44. | |
barely smell anything. You can change this to many different | :31:44. | :31:54. | |
:31:54. | :31:59. | ||
sauces. This one is tartare, this one here is Mary Rose. Brandy in | :31:59. | :32:09. | |
:32:09. | :32:10. | ||
there does give it a nice kick and and cayenne pepper. It's thought to | :32:10. | :32:14. | |
be Spainish of origin really. It's used all over the world, but | :32:15. | :32:20. | |
gradually you slowly added oil. I am going to mix this and serve it | :32:20. | :32:30. | |
:32:30. | :32:32. | ||
with chicken goujons which I am I was reading about you. Your | :32:32. | :32:38. | |
mother was part Italian. Your father was part German. Yeah, I am | :32:38. | :32:42. | |
German and Italian background, I don't really speak either language. | :32:42. | :32:47. | |
I know when I am being yelled at. Music was a huge influence in your | :32:47. | :32:51. | |
life, listening to stuff on the radio. When I was growing up my dad | :32:51. | :32:57. | |
had just just got out of prison and he had one box of records that was | :32:57. | :33:06. | |
all just great singers, Johnnie Cash and Elvis and Orbison. He | :33:06. | :33:10. | |
would let us play them, you are kids, you think you would be | :33:10. | :33:14. | |
scratching them up and they would be yelling at you. My dad was so | :33:14. | :33:19. | |
cool he would just say go ahead. But music wasn't the first thing | :33:19. | :33:24. | |
for you, reading about you, you went on to be a light heavyweight | :33:24. | :33:34. | |
:33:34. | :33:35. | ||
boxer. I boxed - it's the staoupest -- stupidest idea ever, they have a | :33:35. | :33:39. | |
police athletic league and police take kids they think tphr danger of | :33:39. | :33:45. | |
becoming delink kwrepbts and teach them how to throw an overhand right. | :33:45. | :33:49. | |
It worked, they taught me something. Music was a big thing for you, like | :33:49. | :33:53. | |
you said. That led you to come back to the UK after doing a little bit | :33:53. | :33:56. | |
in Japan. When I was reading about you, you say it was one moment you | :33:56. | :34:00. | |
went into an old record store and bought an old record and it changed | :34:00. | :34:05. | |
your life. It's weird how your life turns on a dime. I think back and I | :34:05. | :34:09. | |
go if that day had done different, I don't know. I walked by a record | :34:09. | :34:15. | |
store and every day I walk by they had a white guitar in a window and | :34:15. | :34:19. | |
to a red neck like me that was really classy, I couldn't afford | :34:19. | :34:24. | |
the guitar and I went in the shop and they had an album called Elvis | :34:25. | :34:29. | |
Presley Sun Sessions, I didn't know what that was but I bought it and | :34:29. | :34:33. | |
at the time I had a flat-top haircut, it was about as long as | :34:33. | :34:39. | |
yours. I went, the next day to my boxing coach, I don't want to cut | :34:39. | :34:44. | |
my hair any more, you said you have to, to be on the team. I can't do | :34:44. | :34:48. | |
it then, he said you can let it grow as long as you win. I was | :34:48. | :34:54. | |
fighting to keep my hair. That was Rock 'n' Roll. Coming back to the | :34:54. | :35:00. | |
US and San Francisco, you set up your band, Silverstones. Yeah. | :35:00. | :35:07. | |
played every pub and gig going to get a record deal. Yeah. I - we | :35:07. | :35:13. | |
played bars, any place that you could set up - any place that had a | :35:13. | :35:18. | |
beer or urinal, we played. still play with the same band. | :35:18. | :35:22. | |
have had the same guys for 27 years, I am looking for better musicians, | :35:22. | :35:29. | |
I just can't find them! They're good guys. You mentioned Roy | :35:29. | :35:32. | |
Orbison, it must be incredible to work with these guys having | :35:32. | :35:36. | |
listened to them when you were younger. Looking back I don't know | :35:36. | :35:43. | |
how I got to do it but some luck in my life, the people that I loved | :35:43. | :35:50. | |
and grew up listening to, I got to work with Johnny Cash, friends with | :35:50. | :35:55. | |
Roy Orbison, I went to his house and at one point he goes I like the | :35:55. | :35:59. | |
way you sing that part, you sound like Buddy when he did that, I said | :35:59. | :36:04. | |
oh, yeah, and as I was walking out of the house later I went buddy | :36:04. | :36:10. | |
Holly! Like, it blew your mind to think who he knew and hung out with. | :36:10. | :36:14. | |
It must have been incredible. Is that why you have done the album | :36:14. | :36:19. | |
now, you have picked all the greats, it must have been an album you | :36:19. | :36:23. | |
always wanted to do. This is music I love and the guy who discovered | :36:23. | :36:32. | |
all those artists, Elvis, Jerry Lee, you know, Orbison made Sun Studios | :36:32. | :36:37. | |
and that is still there and I took my guys to Memphis and we recorded | :36:37. | :36:41. | |
at the studio and they would open up at midnight, open up the diner | :36:41. | :36:45. | |
next door and we would go in and make hamburgers and stuff. It was | :36:45. | :36:53. | |
just like recording in 1953. Incredible. We first knew new the | :36:54. | :36:58. | |
UK from about your third album, The Wicked Game that really launched | :36:58. | :37:03. | |
your success. Together with a film Wild at Heart. You went into acting | :37:03. | :37:10. | |
as well. Silence of The Lambs you were in. I have been in films, I | :37:10. | :37:14. | |
love doing films, it's a lot of fun. I have done television shows. But | :37:14. | :37:22. | |
when I go home I don't don't stand in front of the mirror and do | :37:22. | :37:28. | |
Othello or something. I grab a guitar. You need to grab your | :37:28. | :37:34. | |

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.- You're a little bit pushed for time- this morning. | :41:15. | :41:17. | |
We have three hours in order to get the lunch ready. | :41:17. | :41:24. | |
Each team must devise their own menu | :41:24. | :41:25. | |
from a range of ingredients including chicken, minced beef, pork, | :41:26. | :41:30. | |
a range of vegetables and a selection of tinned fruit. | :41:30. | :41:40. | |
:41:40. | :41:42. | ||
I'm thinking aboutdoing shepherd's pie. Sounds good. And vegetarian curry. | :41:42. | :41:44. | |
That sounds perfect. They absolutely love curry. Oh, OK. we're on to a winner there, I think. | :41:44. | :41:48. | |
Rhubarb crumble for dessert. Yeah. Sounds good. Sounds perfect. Sounds really good. | :41:48. | :41:58. | |
:41:58. | :42:00. | ||
On the other team, Margi and Aggie have started cooking before getting the go-ahead from the chef. | :42:01. | :42:10. | |
What were you planning to do for your menu? Bolognese, spaghetti Bolognese... | :42:10. | :42:13. | |
pasta Bolognese. Right, OK. There is a slight problem there, because Tim will be using the beef. | :42:14. | :42:23. | |
:42:24. | :42:42. | ||
GGG | :42:42. | :42:42. | |
PPP | :42:42. | :42:42. | |
:42:42. | :42:52. | ||
:42:52. | :42:54. | ||
My daughter loves it. I invented this dish myself | :42:54. | :43:01. | |
With Aggie in charge of the meat dish, Margi has taken responsibility for the vegetarian option | :43:01. | :43:02. | |
and is making a lentil bake. They are yet to decide on a dessert. | :43:02. | :43:02. | |
Right, right, right, right. | :43:03. | :43:09. | |
I've listen to John and Gregg. And the method here, what I'm trying to do... | :43:09. | :43:11. | |
I'm going to do all my ingredients first. | :43:11. | :43:16. | |
That's the way to success. | :43:16. | :43:21. | |
I'm kind of getting my head down and just doing it and trying not to panic. | :43:21. | :43:29. | |
I've never seen you this calm before, Shobu! | :43:29. | :43:33. | |
I'm changing. | :43:33. | :43:35. | |
The other guys seem to be about cooking, cooking, cooking, and you guys are doing what? | :43:35. | :43:39. | |
- My theory was an hour to prep, an hour to cook. - I like the idea of it. | :43:39. | :43:47. | |
Across the kitchen Aggie and Margi are already cooking. | :43:47. | :43:50. | |
I must remember to put the salt and pepper in. | :43:50. | :43:56. | |
You've got Margi making lentil bake but she hasn't done all thepreparation and then made six dishes. | :43:56. | :43:59. | |
She's making every dish at one time.- One goes in the oven, she starts the next one. | :43:59. | :44:05. | |
Why don't you just cook it allat once and put them all together? | :44:05. | :44:08. | |
I didn't fancy that idea because I'm doing the 30, | :44:08. | :44:11. | |
and I know if I do six of those dishes, that's the 30. | :44:11. | :44:16. | |
So, six dishes...you're going tocook the same dish six times over? | :44:16. | :44:20. | |
I just trust it more this way because I'm terrible at numbers. | :44:20. | :44:28. | |
She has no idea what's going intoeach dish, there's not going to be any consistency, | :44:28. | :44:30. | |
and that's the point with large-scale catering... it's got to be consistent. | :44:30. | :44:35. | |
Meanwhile Aggie has her own problems. | :44:35. | :44:37. | |
I'm a bit discombobulated because I decided I was going to make Bolognese sauce, | :44:38. | :44:41. | |
and it was going to be delicious, etc, etc, and then Tim's gone off with the beef, so... | :44:41. | :44:46. | |
Then I had to quickly think of something else. | :44:46. | :44:54. | |
Aggie's got a lovely dish of chicken and rice but she is running around all over the place, | :44:54. | :44:57. | |
really tense, loads of mess... Too much...too much energy in the wrong direction. | :44:58. | :45:05. | |
Calm down, Aggie! | :45:05. | :45:08. | |
Interesting way of doing it... | :45:08. | :45:09. | |
I don't understand why you don'ttake all your chicken off the stove,- put them in the trays, | :45:09. | :45:14. | |
get your garnishes done like yourpeppers and onions, then your sauce, and finish them all off at once. | :45:14. | :45:19. | |
Cos you've got 8 or 9 on there, you've got about 12 on here... | :45:19. | :45:25. | |
I know, but this is a bigger one... | :45:25. | :45:26. | |
And you've got 9 on... | :45:26. | :45:27. | |
Ah! How can you work like this? | :45:28. | :45:29. | |
Strewth! | :45:29. | :45:33. | |
You have roughly two hours left to service. Right. | :45:33. | :45:39. | |
Tim and Shobu are still doing their prep. | :45:39. | :45:42. | |
I'm sorry, but this really isn't fun- at the moment. I've just chopped for an hour. | :45:42. | :45:47. | |
All I'm doing is chopping! And I have absolutely no idea if I'm making enough carrots here or... | :45:47. | :45:51. | |
or whether I'm making enough potatoes. I just don't know. | :45:51. | :45:59. | |
That's why I don't use butternut squash! It's impossible to cut. | :45:59. | :46:06. | |
There's so much. This is impossible! | :46:06. | :46:08. | |
Are you OK with your curry? | :46:08. | :46:10. | |
Yes, I've got to cut a bit more, two more celeriac, a few more courgettes...so I'm still... | :46:10. | :46:15. | |
It's looking like you're getting a bit stuck for time. | :46:16. | :46:18. | |
So you just concentrate on making sure that you've got your dish ready. | :46:18. | :46:24. | |
I think I'm remaining calm under pressure. | :46:24. | :46:27. | |
I don't know if that could be a bad- calm because, you know, if I don't get the job done, that's a bad calm. | :46:27. | :46:35. | |
Tim finally gets his cottage pie going, but they still haven't started their rhubarb crumble. | :46:35. | :46:40. | |
Right, Tim, how long do you think you'd estimate your pudding needs to cook? | :46:40. | :46:48. | |
20 minutes. I'd probably give it a little bit longer than that. I'd maybe try about 40. 40? | :46:48. | :46:57. | |
Crumble in first. | :46:57. | :46:59. | |
I don't know how to make crumble. | :46:59. | :47:09. | |
:47:09. | :47:10. | ||
With just over an hour until service, Tim gets to work on his first-ever rhubarb crumble. | :47:10. | :47:17. | |
I assume it's... | :47:17. | :47:20. | |
..flour and... | :47:20. | :47:23. | |
..topping, right? It's flour and marge and oats and sugar. | :47:23. | :47:29. | |
Right, get that mixed quickly. A bit more marge. | :47:29. | :47:32. | |
I reckon the more sugar I put in it,- the nicer it's going to taste. | :47:32. | :47:36. | |
Whoa! | :47:36. | :47:45. | |
I'm all right. Thanks, honey. It'sa mess, but I should be helping you with that crumble and I'm not. | :47:45. | :47:53. | |
Have you decided what pudding your team's going to do? No. | :47:53. | :47:56. | |
I think we're doing rhubarb crumble,-aren't we, Aggie? Well, I'm afraid they've already pipped you to it. | :47:57. | :48:01. | |
A word of advice, they like traditional puddings, so anything stodgy, sponges... | :48:01. | :48:09. | |
pastries, you know... OK. ..Like pies... | :48:09. | :48:11. | |
Er... | :48:11. | :48:15. | |
Apple crumble?Well, it better come with a decent amount of custard, ladies. | :48:15. | :48:25. | |
:48:25. | :48:25. | ||

Sardines. Next, cooking next is the man behind the Michelin starred | :49:24. | :49:29. | |
London restaurant Hibiscus, it's Claude Bosi. Tell us about the dish. | :49:29. | :49:39. | |
A customer call it no-sotto. Celeriac, you are going to peel, we | :49:39. | :49:44. | |
are going to make stock to cook the risotto. English winkles to finish | :49:44. | :49:54. | |
:49:54. | :49:54. | ||
it, some parmesan. You want me to do the celeriac, we are going to | :49:54. | :50:04. | |
:50:04. | :50:07. | ||
utilising veg in a different way. love vegetable. I was there last | :50:07. | :50:15. | |
week and you do a dish with tarmarind. A weird flavour but | :50:15. | :50:20. | |
incredible taste. It's an aspiration we found in Singapore, I | :50:20. | :50:24. | |
can't remember exactly when, and we find this flavour and I just fall | :50:24. | :50:28. | |
in love with it. I thought it was absolutely fantastic. It's a hard | :50:28. | :50:36. | |
dish to do, a long dish to do, not a hard dish but very long. But it's | :50:36. | :50:42. | |
really, really interesting flavour. As well as loving veg you don't | :50:42. | :50:47. | |
like lamb? I hate lamb. You hate lamb? Sorry, but I absolutely hate | :50:47. | :50:51. | |
it. I just hate the flavour. It's never going to be on your | :50:51. | :51:01. | |
:51:01. | :51:01. | ||
restaurant? I don't cook with it, I don't eat it. Way I see it, if you | :51:01. | :51:09. | |
can't eat it don't cook it for your customer. They can go to Sat's. | :51:09. | :51:14. | |
They have lamb. I just don't like it. What have we got in the pan? | :51:14. | :51:19. | |
Celeriac. A bit of salt. Bit of butter and get the water coming out | :51:19. | :51:29. | |
of the celeriac. I love that, fantastic skin. You can use that | :51:29. | :51:39. | |
:51:39. | :51:42. | ||
skin if you want to. You often get a lot of sugared skin... Candied | :51:42. | :51:47. | |
stuff. This is instead of using wine? Instead of using wine is what | :51:47. | :51:53. | |
you are prepping here. We are going to make a puree. When it's finished | :51:53. | :51:57. | |
we are going to mix it with vinegar. You put celeriac in it. Put the | :51:57. | :52:04. | |
juice and you cook it, not a lot. Make sure the stock is hot. Like | :52:04. | :52:09. | |
basic risotto. We have the skin for the stock, the dice there we are | :52:09. | :52:13. | |
going to blend in a puree and you have the fine dice instead of the | :52:13. | :52:21. | |
rice for the actual risotto. see the seg rplt -- segment of the | :52:21. | :52:27. | |
pomelo. They are are quite sharp that fruit. It's a distinctive | :52:27. | :52:37. | |
:52:37. | :52:40. | ||
flavour. It's not as sharp as grapefruit or orange. You try to | :52:40. | :52:46. | |
keep the celeriac with a bit of a bite, like you have with rice. Cook | :52:46. | :52:56. | |
:52:56. | :53:01. | ||
it really slowly. Although classically trained, you take ideas | :53:01. | :53:05. | |
from all over the world. From the Far East. Travel is important for | :53:05. | :53:11. | |
you? Very much so. If not you get used to doing the same thing all | :53:11. | :53:17. | |
the time and so much to see outside of the way you live and it's very | :53:18. | :53:23. | |
important to open your eyes, see what is on the other side. Talking | :53:23. | :53:28. | |
of techniques, tell us about these things. Winkles. These have to be | :53:28. | :53:31. | |
prepared in a certain way. Like snails, I love them. You boil them | :53:32. | :53:41. | |
:53:42. | :53:42. | ||
first in vinegar to take, how can I say, impurity. Take all of that off. | :53:42. | :53:48. | |
After that put them back in a pan with broth, carrot, onion and cook | :53:48. | :53:57. | |
it for for, and you get like this. It's got lovely texture. Fresh ones, | :53:57. | :54:03. | |
don't use pickled ones for these ones. You can if you want for | :54:03. | :54:10. | |
sharpness. It's not too much of an issue. Right, we have puree here, | :54:10. | :54:19. | |
just a little bit. Another blender! But just one. We could do a | :54:19. | :54:24. | |
masterclass on mixers today. Getting there. This doesn't take | :54:24. | :54:34. | |
:54:34. | :54:34. | ||
very long to cook then. Very easy. Mascarpone. A lot of people - I | :54:34. | :54:39. | |
finish my risotto with mascarpone. I find the parmesan brings it all | :54:39. | :54:44. | |
together, whereas the mascarpone helps a little bit. The winkles, | :54:44. | :54:48. | |
they're cooked, just to warm them up a bit. You serve this as a | :54:48. | :54:55. | |
garnish in the restaurant. Yes. it with cod? With cod and truffle. | :54:55. | :55:03. | |
You try to mix classic and bit of modernity. On your travels you ask | :55:03. | :55:08. | |
a lot of two and three Michelin star chefs about their travels and | :55:08. | :55:11. | |
they say Japan is a place to go, would you say that? Yes, you have | :55:11. | :55:15. | |
the respect of produce, the simplicity of it and they have some | :55:15. | :55:19. | |
of the best produce in the world and the way they work with it and | :55:19. | :55:26. | |
respect them is just fantastic. It's the simplicity side of it? | :55:26. | :55:29. | |
purity, everything tastes so healthy, if you are very good about | :55:29. | :55:36. | |
yourself and you eat Japanese food. When we go there - the way they | :55:36. | :55:39. | |
work and see the food, everything they do is for a reason. They're | :55:39. | :55:49. | |
:55:49. | :55:50. | ||
not doing it for the sake of it. Have you put any of this in it? | :55:50. | :55:58. | |
am going to finish at the end to bring... Parmesan cheese. | :55:58. | :56:03. | |
mascarpone. What is that? Chicken. Heavily reduced chicken stock. If | :56:03. | :56:08. | |
people were buying that you would get one of these tubs of chicken | :56:08. | :56:13. | |
stock. You can get those tubs and reduce it down and put it in the | :56:13. | :56:19. | |
fridge. Do you want this seasoned with salt? Should be fine. As well | :56:19. | :56:23. | |
as doing all that you are involved in a little venture with your | :56:23. | :56:31. | |
brother. Yeah, a pub with my brother in Wimbledon, The Fox and | :56:31. | :56:37. | |
Grey. It's busy there. We are just doing good local food. English food. | :56:37. | :56:43. | |
It's very popular. Is there lamb on the menu there? Yeah, because I am | :56:43. | :56:53. | |
:56:53. | :56:56. | ||
not cooking it. In with the herbs. Herbs? Parsley, chive and chervil. | :56:56. | :57:05. | |
You have to be a bit like risotto, with texture. Celery we are going | :57:05. | :57:12. | |
to finish on top. If we get the puree again. The bit I made. Sorry, | :57:12. | :57:19. | |
beautiful puree! Vinegar in there as well? Yes, to get the acidity of | :57:19. | :57:27. | |
it. Instead of using white wine. like drinking wine, don't get me | :57:28. | :57:37. | |
wrong, wine in cooking is not really for me. Ancilliary tops | :57:37. | :57:41. | |
there -- and the little celery tops there. You get the sharpness from | :57:41. | :57:47. | |
it as well. And the texture. can also make this into a jelly | :57:47. | :57:57. | |
:57:57. | :57:59. | ||
like what you used that agar for. Try to get the balance. That's the | :57:59. | :58:03. | |
celery, to get back to the celery flavour. Finally we have here the | :58:03. | :58:07. | |
truffle. Seasons are changing at the moment. You want to put a | :58:07. | :58:17. | |
:58:17. | :58:22. | ||
little bit of that on. And olive oil. That's it. Oil on the top. | :58:22. | :58:28. | |
That's it. Remind us what it is again. It's risotto with no rice | :58:28. | :58:38. | |
:58:38. | :58:38. | ||
and English winkles made with celeriac and pomelo. Makes my | :58:39. | :58:43. | |
chicken goujons look a bit simple! It looks good, I know it tastes | :58:43. | :58:47. | |
fantastic. Have a seat here, Claude. Dive into this. The food just keeps | :58:47. | :58:56. | |
coming. Tell us what you think of It's an unusual combination with | :58:56. | :59:02. | |
the winkles and truffles. What?! Stop looking at me. Get a life! | :59:02. | :59:10. | |
What do you reckon? It's dam good. I don't think any of these guys are | :59:10. | :59:17. | |
going to get any. Let's go back to Peterborough to see what Peter has | :59:17. | :59:27. | |
:59:27. | :59:29. | ||
chosen to go with Claude's riceless Claude's cooking is brilliantly | :59:29. | :59:34. | |
playful and inventive. This dish is a subtle interplay of flavour with | :59:34. | :59:37. | |
offbeat but complementary ingredients. So, we need a white | :59:37. | :59:43. | |
wine and grownup one at that, something that marries seemlessly a | :59:43. | :59:50. | |
richness with he will tkpapbs and fresh -- elegance and freshness. | :59:50. | :59:55. | |
This brilliant value chardonnay from South Africa is a great option. | :59:55. | :59:59. | |
Let's forget chardonnay for once. I found a belter of a wine that's | :59:59. | :00:09. | |
:00:09. | :00:11. | ||
different from the norm, like this dish, it's the quite wonderful | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
Cornet Collioure from France. It's grown in the beautiful | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
Mediterranean hills north of the Spanish border. It can be made from | :00:19. | :00:25. | |
weird and wonderful grape varieties. What these wines can be is | :00:25. | :00:29. | |
undiscovered gems. This one is beautiful. It's not particularly | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
arrow matic but it smells gently of nuts and warm earth and herbs which | :00:33. | :00:43. | |
:00:43. | :00:44. | ||
will work well with the celeriac and parmesan and truffle here. It | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
Finally, very importantly, it's refreshing and uplifting in flavour. | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
It's what we need for the pomelo and so the flavours don't claw. | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
It's a brilliantly original dish and here is a wonderful wine to go | :00:58. | :01:03. | |
with it that's a little bit different, too. | :01:03. | :01:09. | |
Well, everybody's diving into that and it's going down a storm. I like | :01:09. | :01:18. | |
it. I love the wine. It's got this sit sit -- citrusy. Beautiful, yeah. | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
And at �9 a bargain, compared with the amount of truffle over that. | :01:24. | :01:30. | |
The winkles are lovely. That fruit is unusual. It's pure Claude Bosi. | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
It's one of those dishes that if you saw on a menu you wouldn't pick | :01:34. | :01:44. | |
:01:44. | :01:46. | ||
it because the truffles and winkles, but tasting it... Let's go back to | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
Celebrity Masterchef to see if those ambulance workers actually | :01:49. | :01:59. | |
:01:59. | :02:11. | ||
hundreds of ambulance staff It is frightening. | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
Today I thought they were going tocome up one more step, but right now- I am really, really worried. | :02:13. | :02:22. | |
Where's the veg curry? I've got all the bits over there. | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
I've just put the onions in. I need to put in my spices, | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
and then put in the tomatoes, make the paste...the base, | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
and then put in all the veggies and let them cook. | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
That's loads and loads! Loads and loads of what? Loads and loads of work! | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
Can you get this done in 30 minutes? | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
What can I do? It's not cookingany faster. It needs to cook faster! | :02:39. | :02:46. | |
The vegetables aren't cooked. She's got vegetables like that, and half an hour... Where? | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
Where are the veg, Shobu? They're all there. All right, don't... | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
Get your veg on, get them in.I put this in? No, put it in after. Put your vegetables first. OK. | :02:55. | :03:05. | |
:03:05. | :03:10. | ||
I'm really behind time. | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
I've got to get the potatoes boiled,-mashed, on top of the cottage pie, under the grill, taste, eat, | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
beautiful...! | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
With about 20 minutes to go, the real issue here is Tim and Shobu. | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
There's not much more I can do now. I can't speed up the process. | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
OK, ladies and gents, can we focus,- please? You have 15 minutes left. | :03:26. | :03:34. | |
Oh, my God! | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
Oh, wow! That is seriously burnt! | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
Is that us? Is this the apple? | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
Is it one of yours? Yes, it wasn't cooking at all,and I put it on the top shelf. OK. | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
And then, next thing... | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
..it's charred. OK. Right, get as much of that off as possible, yeah? | :03:55. | :04:03. | |
Right now, behind that wall, it is carnage, | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
absolutely, unmitigated carnage. | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
I'm quite concerned about what's going on here, to be honest. | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
We've a few minutes to spare, but it's going to be really tight. | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
The sooner I can step in there, | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
then the more chance that we have. OK? Good luck. Right. | :04:21. | :04:31. | |
:04:31. | :04:31. | ||
It's like the opening night of a show. Everything is on the actor, everything's on the performer | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
and the chef in the kitchen. | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
When the curtain goes up, all the actors have got a nice smile, ready to begin. | :04:38. | :04:44. | |
John, there are 300 people in this building, so at least 200 of them are going to come down for lunch. | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
These guys work in the emergency services! They've got to get back and man the phones. | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
It's a very strict timetable. | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
Right, they're queuing at the door now, ladies and gents. | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
We need to make sure we push this out in the next couple of minutes. | :04:59. | :05:07. | |
Tim, get it in. Well done. Let's get it in. | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
Is it ready to go now? Yeah. It was ready to go half an hour ago. | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
How's the crumble coming on? The crumble's in the oven. | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
Don't open the oven. Don't open the oven. Two of the crumbles or maybe all three are in the oven. | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
Tim actually made them, I just put them in the oven. So we'll see... | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
Despite the chaos, Margi and Aggie have their dishes at the pass. | :05:26. | :05:33. | |
Tim has also got the pie up. | :05:33. | :05:43. | |
:05:43. | :05:43. | ||
Oh, your potatoes... Everything's really quite hard, isn't it? | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
That's going to be at least 10, 15 minutes yet. | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
10, 15 minutes. | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
Basically, what it means is you're going to miss out on some customers, so you're not selling your dishes. | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
OK? | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
We're about to open the doors, guys. | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
Please make sure that you have all the equipment you need. | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
Can I have a spoon for my crumble, please? | :06:10. | :06:20. | |
:06:20. | :06:23. | ||
What would you like? | :06:23. | :06:24. | |
Vegetarian? | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
Enough for you? It's really nice with salad. Right. | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
What can I get you? Bon appetit! | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
Can I have chicken, please? | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
All the early orders are for Margi and Aggie. | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
- Can I get the lentil bake, please?- - Yes. You certainly can. | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
What would you like? | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
Go on, then. I'll have the potato pie. | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
Yeah, at last! | :06:45. | :06:45. | |
I'll have the same. | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
Yeah, I'll have the cottage pie as well, please. | :06:47. | :06:54. | |
I've not served it very well,but I think it'll taste all right. | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
Can I have cottage pie, please? | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
Despite the slow start, Tim's cottage pie is selling well. | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
I had the cottage pie. It's quite good. It's yummy. | :07:04. | :07:14. | |
:07:14. | :07:15. | ||
Oh! It's cooked! | :07:15. | :07:16. | |
Wee-hee! | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
15 minutes late, Shobu's vegetable curry finally arrives. | :07:18. | :07:24. | |
- What are the choices? - Cottage pie, lentil bake... | :07:24. | :07:25. | |
- There you are. - Oh! Or vegetable curry. | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
- Oh, wow! - What would you like? | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
I'll have the vegetarian curry, please. | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
Well, I do hope that you enjoy it,and I hope it doesn't blow the lid off your mouth. | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
Tim, can you get the gentleman a curry? Curry and rice. | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
What's this one? Curry. | :07:43. | :07:50. | |
I've gone for the curry and the rice. and it's really good, actually. | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
The heat kicks in after you've swallowed it.And it's not too powerful. It's good, | :07:52. | :08:01. | |
Both main courses get the thumbs-up, | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
but Tim's first-ever attempt at rhubarb crumble is not going down so well. | :08:03. | :08:09. | |
I had the rhubarb crumble for pudding. | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
It was OK overall, but the rhubarbwas a bit undercooked...overcooked, I think. | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
There was way too much crumble. | :08:16. | :08:23. | |
Halfway through service and Aggie's- chicken, herb and vegetable tray bake has almost sold out. | :08:23. | :08:31. | |
Lovely. Thank you, darling. | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
That's going good guns. | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
- Chicken, isn't it? - Here you are. | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
It's really nice. The rice is cooked perfectly.The chicken is really nice and juicy. | :08:39. | :08:48. | |
And Margi's homemade recipe for cheesy lentil pie is also flying out. | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
It's got red peppers, mushrooms, onions and a cheesy topping. | :08:52. | :09:00. | |
I've never had lentils with cheese, but it's actually a really nice combination. | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
- I'll have the apple crumble. - There you are, my dear. | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
- Thank you very much. - What would you like? | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
Now it's just their rescued pudding- that needs to impress. | :09:11. | :09:17. | |
I chose the apple crumble, apple crumble being one of my favourites anyway... | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
Nicely cooked, nice soft apples, nice flavour. Really good. | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
All things considered, I know it got a bit hairy there towards the end, | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
but we managed to do it by the skin- of our teeth and I think you've all- got a lot to be proud of. | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
Thank you very much for today. Thank you. | :09:33. | :09:42. | |
You | :09:42. | :09:42. | |
You can | :09:42. | :09:42. | |
You can see | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
You can see the celebrities face more challenges on next week's show. | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
It's time to answer some of your foodie questions. Each call | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
certificate going to help decide what Chris will be eating for lunch | :09:53. | :09:59. | |
at the end of the show. First Maureen from the Isle of Lewis, | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
what's your question for us? I have some pigs trotters and I wouldn't | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
mind knowing what to do with them. Pigs trotters. Great dishes you can | :10:09. | :10:17. | |
make. You braise them for a long time, take the bone off. Put it in | :10:17. | :10:26. | |
a tray, let it set. Cool it off, breadcrumb, fry it, with tartare | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
sauce. Slow cook them in water with vegetables and that kind of stuff, | :10:30. | :10:36. | |
take them off the bone. It's hard work but take all the the bone off. | :10:36. | :10:44. | |
Put it in a tray, cold. Breadcrumb, deep fry. Beautiful. We are all | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
round your house for dinner if you have a go at that. What dish would | :10:48. | :10:56. | |
you like to see, Heaven or hell? Sorry, hell, please. Sean from | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
Durham, are you there? What's your question for us? What's the best | :11:01. | :11:10. | |
way to cook a leg of lamb? Claude! Don't cook it! Sat? There is a | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
brilliant recipe I have done before, seven-hour lamb, loads of herbs and | :11:15. | :11:21. | |
garlic and slowly roast it with water on a treufet and probably | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
around 120 degrees and it's absolutely delicious. I think we | :11:24. | :11:30. | |
could convert him. I have been doing it in hay, cooking it in hay. | :11:30. | :11:36. | |
If you get hay from a pet shop. Not out of the rabbit hutch. From the | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
pet shop and put that in the dish. Put the lid on it and cook it for | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
two hours, it's delicious. There you go, two dishes. I will leave | :11:45. | :11:50. | |
Claude to sulk. What would you like to see, Heaven or hell. Sorry, I | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
love mint. It's got to be hell. might need to get the guitar out | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
again. Jill, from Croydon, are you there? I would like to know how to | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
cook a couple of pork shanks. Different to lamb. I have done them | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
in a pressure cooker before for about 40 minutes and you get a | :12:09. | :12:13. | |
lovely glaze with cloves and honey and roast them on a high heat. | :12:13. | :12:19. | |
treat them like a mini tkpwapl Monday. -- gammon. Without a doubt. | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
Would you leave them in water? can soak them if you want to, it's | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
up to you. In a pressure cooker. would, 40 minutes, done, tender and | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
then glaze in a hot oven about ten minutes. I can't beat that recipe. | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
Did the song work for you, food Heaven or hell? Food Heaven. At the | :12:37. | :12:42. | |
moment it's 2-1 to hell. Let's get down to business. All the chefs | :12:42. | :12:48. | |
battle it out against the clock and each other to see how fast they can | :12:48. | :12:54. | |
make a three-egg omelette. Sat, 19.32. Respectable time. Claude, | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
who would you like to beat on the board? You are not bothered. Three- | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
egg omelette as fast as you can. Ready. Put the clocks on the | :13:03. | :13:13. | |
:13:13. | :13:35. | ||
that's the key. Two different ways it. That's not an omelette. Chris, | :13:35. | :13:41. | |
you might not have seen this before, but it's simple, three eggs. You | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
can have guys fighting on this show. Especially this guy, he opens the | :13:44. | :13:52. | |
book, he gets two Michelin stars. He does that egg and great, lovely! | :13:52. | :13:59. | |
Let me finish it for you. That's burnt, get off! I have seen worse, | :13:59. | :14:09. | |
:14:09. | :14:09. | ||
James. Really, where? That one over there. It's perfect, seasoned as | :14:09. | :14:19. | |
:14:19. | :14:31. | ||
Sorry, I have to have a drink at this point. Right. Claude. Come on, | :14:31. | :14:41. | |
:14:41. | :14:46. | ||
be nice. It's my first time. Next to Daniel? Where? No, Clifford. | :14:46. | :14:51. | |
Here? Even if he is not just... chance. I will let you go there, | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
just for now. But you are nowhere near there. You did it in 26.88. | :14:57. | :15:05. | |
Pretty respectable. Right next to Alain Roux. Stephen Terry there. | :15:05. | :15:15. | |
:15:15. | :15:17. | ||
Sat. No way. It's a respectable omelette. Really?! That?! I have | :15:17. | :15:23. | |
seen worse. Stop having sour grapes, you are so tkpwhreurb! -- English! | :15:23. | :15:31. | |
You did it greater than 19. It's not an omelette. Unbelievably quick. | :15:31. | :15:38. | |
16.40. It puts you... Come on. There is not a chance you are going | :15:38. | :15:44. | |
on that board. Will Chris get his idea - I love it, you have so much | :15:45. | :15:50. | |
power on this show! Will he be getting food Heaven or hell? The | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
guys in the studio have yet to make their minds up. We will find out | :15:54. | :16:00. | |
what he is having after a wet and muddy performance from the pioneer | :16:00. | :16:05. | |
of food TV, Keith Floyd. He is in Somerset, he is fishing, but | :16:05. | :16:11. | |
there's no boat, just miles of mud. And a wooden sledge. Brilliant | :16:11. | :16:21. | |
:16:21. | :17:00. | ||
Look, in these, what I am is a cook, not a mud togonnist, or whatever. | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
It is horrible conditions, there you are. It's all mud flats, 6,000 | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
acres and it's like this all over. All over. Why don't you have a boat | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
like everybody else? It would seem to be the nice to have a boat, but | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
treacherous conditions here with the tide, eb and flow, we found it | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
doesn't work. This is the only answer? This is the only answer. | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
It's very primitive but effective. How long have you been doing this? | :17:24. | :17:31. | |
I have done it all my life. My father and his father and great- | :17:31. | :17:33. | |
grandfather and of course it was going on long before that. Let's go | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
for it. Are you all right? course I am all right. I will have | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
to push you. I think that will be the answer, if I get back I will | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
cook you something nice to eat. Take it out of there, Keith, if you | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
like. It's difficult to get out of there, I expect. How does that work | :17:49. | :17:59. | |
:17:59. | :17:59. | ||
then? He went in there for a few shrimps. He was a greedy little | :17:59. | :18:05. | |
monkey. Feels quite plump. This is so fresh it's unbeefable. I will | :18:05. | :18:10. | |
cook -- unbelievable. I will cook you this if we get back. There is a | :18:10. | :18:18. | |
couple there. The point is here we are actually not going to hang | :18:18. | :18:23. | |
around too much, we are helping this man, actually we are hindering | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
him doing his job. The tide is going to come whizzing in, in a | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
minute and we have about 15 minutes to get out of it. | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
That was one of the most strenuous bits of filming I have ever done. | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
It's OK for Brendan, he has been doing it every day for - how many | :18:42. | :18:50. | |
years? 45. Like a little fairy he is, hops over the mud. I found it | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
heavy going. It does make you hungry this fresh air and we could | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
have gone into his cottage and done it in a nice oven and extractors | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
and things like that, but we felt like a good snack and you couldn't | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
have a fresher piece of cod than this. You saw us pick it off the | :19:05. | :19:11. | |
net. Brendan's filleted it. We try that in a bit of butter. If you -- | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
fry that in a bit of butter. If you weren't this mud skater what would | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
you do? Anything else? You have done this all your life and your | :19:19. | :19:25. | |
father before you, is there anything you ever wish? No, I don't | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
think there is really. There's something about this fishing, it | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
gets hold of you and it's the element of surprise and what you | :19:33. | :19:40. | |
are going to get on the next tide. Like you said, if you won half a | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
million, we all wish that, everybody on the land wish that, | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
but I still think I would like to go out and see what was on the next | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
tide. Something about it. Maybe if you were working in a factory you | :19:52. | :19:56. | |
would run from the back door and wouldn't ever want to go back again. | :19:56. | :20:06. | |
:20:06. | :20:06. | ||
With the fishing it's one of those things. It's very cold, I am | :20:06. | :20:16. | |
:20:16. | :20:18. | ||
standing by the river, which is rising. You know, this is the | :20:18. | :20:24. | |
kingdom of the eel. This is an elver net. Observe it closely, also | :20:24. | :20:30. | |
by the way, observe me, dressed as I should be in the fine gentleman's | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
attire of a fisherman. Notice the jacket, the waders, survival kit | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
very important and this essential thing. However, back to the net. | :20:37. | :20:42. | |
It's very important. It isn't just a thing you can do with a | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
television crew, you know, it's something that you get handed down | :20:46. | :20:55. | |
from generation to generation. Although I will plunge this in, be | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
patient, because it's going to drag me away. You also have to be quite | :20:58. | :21:08. | |
:21:08. | :21:13. | ||
Look, I am a fairly straight guy and do tell you the truth. It is | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
1.00am, it is March and it's freezing. We don't have a car avan | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
full of -- caravan full of home economists, we could have gone to | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
the pub and used their cookers, but no we caught them so we cook them. | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
You beat up some eggs as I am saying like that. I have already | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
blanched these elvers in boiling hot water. They go into the egg | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
mixture as well. I am having to stand in this curious cramped | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
position, it's not because I have a bowel disorder, but it's because I | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
am trying to stop the wind from blowing the gas out, you see what I | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
mean. You whisk those around like that. You season them with a little | :21:52. | :22:02. | |
:22:02. | :22:08. | ||
pepper. A little bit of salt. This is how the wind is, you can see it. | :22:08. | :22:14. | |
Then, if this pan is hot enough and up to me a second, please, Richard, | :22:14. | :22:19. | |
the bacon fat traditionally was the best thing to use, should be piping | :22:19. | :22:27. | |
hot because these should cook quickly. They sizzle. That will | :22:27. | :22:32. | |
form a beautiful little elver omelette. Many of will you be | :22:32. | :22:37. | |
wondering, because I spoke earlier about the survival kit, there it is. | :22:37. | :22:44. | |
You see, out it comes. That is the water. That is the whisky. That is | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
the gin. Only for emergencies, I hasten to add because what you | :22:48. | :22:56. | |
really drink with elvers at 1.00am is a glass of cider. Good Somerset | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
cider. You also wondered, no, they're not quite ready yet. Hold | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
on a second, I will put a lid on those. | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
And tell you something and break from a kind of tradition we have | :23:08. | :23:13. | |
had in our many series now, I am not a political man, but I want to | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
tell you that up and down this river there are 40-50 people | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
fishing elvers here all providing happy plates of food for people in | :23:22. | :23:26. | |
Spain, Holland, Germany, everywhere except this country and they won't | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
and can't appear on this film because they're afraid of the exise | :23:30. | :23:35. | |
man. You would have thought they were smugglers, not fisherman. | :23:35. | :23:42. | |
There we are. A little bit of lovely elvers nicely cooked. It | :23:42. | :23:47. | |
looks like spaghetti and eggs. Look at that, what could you have better | :23:47. | :23:57. | |
:23:57. | :24:00. | ||
on a cold March morning? Oh boy, There will be more from Keith Floyd | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
on next week's show. Now it's time to find out whether Chris is facing | :24:04. | :24:11. | |
food Heaven or hell. Heaven would be these sardines, prepare with a | :24:11. | :24:17. | |
potato style pizza sort of thing, a one-pan dish. Alternatively a pile | :24:17. | :24:23. | |
of mint there, and chocolate chip parfait. How do you think they've | :24:23. | :24:30. | |
decided? I love it, very fresh. was 2-1 at people at home for the | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
mint. I am hoping they've picked the sardines. The song worked I | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
think. That's what you have got. We will Roz these out of the way. -- | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
lose these out of the way. We will show you thousand prepare these | :24:43. | :24:53. | |
:24:53. | :24:55. | ||
sardines -- show you how to prepare do this remove the head, first of | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
all. The head should be eaten separately. All you do is place it | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
and press down the backbone. You push it down here. Claude needs to | :25:05. | :25:10. | |
watch this. I am doing it. You are going to be doing it in a minute. | :25:10. | :25:15. | |
All we do is take your fingers and just remove this bone out. It's a | :25:15. | :25:22. | |
lot like lamb. You keep the fish in tact, you see. Snip that bone off | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
there. All the bones come out here and you can trim this off. | :25:27. | :25:33. | |
So it's nice and flat. The idea is we want all six of them like that. | :25:33. | :25:38. | |
Thank you very much. You are welcome. There you go. Quickly wash | :25:38. | :25:44. | |
my hands and we get the base of this on as well, using potatoes. I | :25:44. | :25:48. | |
mentioned earlier your album, but we didn't give it a name. It's | :25:48. | :25:53. | |
called Beyond The Sun. That's due to the fact it was in the studios. | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
Recorded a lot at Sun Studios in Memphis. You start touring, | :25:59. | :26:02. | |
obviously I mentioned you were touring in the States. We are back | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
to London on October 9th and I want a sreser racial for that -- | :26:06. | :26:09. | |
reservation for that restaurant in town, there is sa good one here, I | :26:09. | :26:18. | |
think. Hibiscus. Then we are going to Wolverhampton, is there a decent | :26:18. | :26:26. | |
restaurant nearby? Anything out there? There's one that does really | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
good microwave salmon. Don't choose the omelette. Someone has lamb? | :26:30. | :26:36. | |
Maybe an omelette, some lamb. in Nottingham, I know that one. | :26:36. | :26:43. | |
have the sardines there. The pesto, it's much better if you make it | :26:43. | :26:48. | |
using a pestle and mortar. I am not doing anything, I am going to play | :26:48. | :26:56. | |
the theme song. Faster, guys. he is playing I am going to put the | :26:57. | :27:03. | |
potatoes in the pan. And olive oil. This is quite good, I could get | :27:03. | :27:09. | |
used to this. # Come in my kitchen, don't touch my pan, my name's James | :27:09. | :27:15. | |
Martin, I am a cooking man. # I love you, baby, but you got to wash | :27:15. | :27:25. | |
:27:25. | :27:27. | ||
your hands. Done it! # I got me a restaurant but I don't serve lamb. | :27:27. | :27:37. | |
:27:37. | :27:52. | ||
# That's just the way I am. # should use any size guitar you want | :27:52. | :27:58. | |
and a little bit of pepper. Slice the potatoes through there. Careful, | :27:58. | :28:04. | |
careful, careful. If do you it fast you get a little bit of meat at the | :28:05. | :28:13. | |
end. That's savory! Thank you very much for that. In with the olive | :28:13. | :28:19. | |
oil. Now take the sliced potatoes and this is where we use this as a | :28:19. | :28:29. | |
:28:29. | :28:33. | ||
girlfriend, come here you little tartlet! Pop that in there. | :28:33. | :28:39. | |
Straight in here. You make this just thin, keep it on | :28:39. | :28:44. | |
the heat. If you can use an ovenproof pan it works. You can | :28:44. | :28:51. | |
going to cook all this in the same pan. Sardines. Yes, ready. Put the | :28:51. | :28:58. | |
sardines on there. These are the slow roasted tomatoes, we slowly | :28:58. | :29:06. | |
baked these and they are sundried. The idea is the tail in the middle, | :29:07. | :29:13. | |
Claude. Really, I didn't see the picture. Yeah, you can do it your | :29:13. | :29:23. | |
way if you want. I like it. Happy with that? Yeah. That's enough. | :29:23. | :29:29. | |
Lovely. Tail in the middle. A bit of salt. Touch of black pepper. | :29:30. | :29:35. | |
Then we have some of this, marjoram over here as well. Sprinkle it over | :29:35. | :29:45. | |
:29:45. | :29:50. | ||
the top. You can learn thousand cook, you | :29:50. | :29:55. | |
see. Two dishes. Mussels and sardine. Cabbage juice and all that | :29:55. | :29:59. | |
sort of stuff. Winkles and stuff like that. The idea is we cook this | :29:59. | :30:02. | |
until the potatoes start to turn. You should be able to see that. | :30:03. | :30:06. | |
They just start to colour a little bit. This is where you keep it in | :30:06. | :30:09. | |
the pan at this point. Obviously the sardines are not going to cook, | :30:09. | :30:14. | |
I have set the oven about 300 Fahrenheit, about 150, so a low | :30:14. | :30:17. | |
oven, otherwise we overcook everything. These are the tomatoes | :30:18. | :30:21. | |
that have gone in the oven. If you have one of those warming drawers | :30:21. | :30:25. | |
you can put those in there. I have a warming drawer. Do it before | :30:25. | :30:29. | |
tkpwu on tour, back after the tour. My shoes are in the warming drawer. | :30:29. | :30:35. | |
You have sundried tomatoes, you see. There isn't much sun in the UK, so | :30:35. | :30:41. | |
we have to use the oven for these ones. The longer you keep them the | :30:41. | :30:47. | |
drier. You You want half and half. You can use dried herbs, all we do | :30:47. | :30:51. | |
is place that on here. There we go. | :30:51. | :30:56. | |
The whole lot can go straight in the oven now. It's a good dinner | :30:56. | :31:02. | |
pie dish. He likes that one, you see. This one goes in the oven. | :31:02. | :31:06. | |
You could if you wanted to finish these under the grill, but I just | :31:06. | :31:10. | |
like them as they are and this is where do you need a lit of olive | :31:10. | :31:14. | |
oil on here and if the potatoes are not coloured enough just leave them | :31:14. | :31:17. | |
on the stove and that way they'll start to crisp up on the base. But | :31:17. | :31:23. | |
the idea is you end up with chips and crisps underneath, so it's like | :31:23. | :31:31. | |
a pizza, but no bread. Good out olive oil. You are back in the UK | :31:31. | :31:36. | |
in October? October 9th. That's right. Are you playing a mixture of | :31:36. | :31:46. | |
:31:46. | :31:46. | ||
old and new songs? He is off again! # No one could save me but you, | :31:47. | :31:52. | |
Hannah, strange what desire - wake up! They're waiting for the | :31:52. | :31:56. | |
sardines. We play old songs and a bunch of stuff off the new record | :31:56. | :32:01. | |
and people seem to love Johnnie Cash and I do, too. I am going to | :32:01. | :32:06. | |
give this to these guys. They can slide it out, I think it's stuck. | :32:06. | :32:12. | |
Cheers, chef. Slide it out on the plate. It's supposed to look like | :32:12. | :32:19. | |
the picture. Where is that picture? Hide it. Go on, chef, slide it out. | :32:19. | :32:26. | |
It's going to look something like it. Do I get my omelette time back? | :32:26. | :32:30. | |
No, it's supposed to look similar to that, roughly. Squashed a little | :32:31. | :32:36. | |
bit. Then we have some of this basil. You see the difference with | :32:36. | :32:40. | |
this and if you get yourself one of these, look at the colour, to the | :32:40. | :32:44. | |
stuff you make in a a blender and you can get this colour if you | :32:45. | :32:50. | |
leave it once you have blended it. Like a bile colour. Similar sort of | :32:50. | :32:55. | |
thing, yeah! We have some rocket over the top. And then do you want | :32:56. | :33:00. | |
to grab some knives and forks, guys. This is where you get to dive in. | :33:00. | :33:05. | |
There you have it, sardine little pizza. Some wine to go with this. | :33:05. | :33:15. | |
:33:15. | :33:23. | ||
Girls, bring over the glasses, please. We have Charte Dassemblage. | :33:23. | :33:27. | |
I will cut it for you, we have literally 20 seconds of the show | :33:27. | :33:30. | |
