Good morning. I hope you are hungry

because we have 90 minutes of

0:00:080:00:12

top-class food to inspire you. I'm

Matt Tebbutt and this is Saturday

0:00:120:00:16

Kitchen live.

0:00:160:00:18

Welcome to the show. We've got two

brilliant Italian chefs joining us

0:00:380:00:43

today, Eleonora Galasso and Gennaro

Contaldo, and on the drinks it is

0:00:430:00:47

Lee Smith. Do you like our new

opening?

I love it! It is welcoming

0:00:470:00:52

and informal.

0:00:520:00:57

and informal.

This is going to set

the theme of the show. Eleonora, you

0:00:580:01:03

are cooking first.

Yes, I am cooking

a beautiful rice dish with soul food

0:01:030:01:09

and beautiful prosecco gravy. It is

a recipe from a 17th century, when

0:01:090:01:17

rice arrived in Naples and so it was

thought of in different ways.

We

0:01:170:01:21

have prosecco gravy as a little

twist, a lodge to Britain and nod to

0:01:210:01:26

Wales... Not to Wales? Mode to

Italy.

It is an hot much to you so

0:01:260:01:33

whoa but it is made with prosecco so

it is a nod to the region of Venice.

0:01:330:01:41

Gennaro, we are doing a celebration

of Antonio.

Yes, two simple pasta

0:01:410:01:48

dishes, one with mushrooms and

pancetta, and another one which

0:01:480:01:52

Antonio used to like, "Cook me

something quick!" I will do it with

0:01:520:01:59

garlic, chilli, olives.

Your best

friend and a great friend of ours.

0:01:590:02:06

Olly, you are on the wine, straight

off the boat from China.

Yes, I was

0:02:060:02:12

in northern China and it was minus

30. This is like a midnight feast

0:02:120:02:16

for me to drop it is marvellous! We

have lashes of fantastic wine and

0:02:160:02:22

depending on which we heaven and

hell swings we may have a British

0:02:220:02:26

beard it up as always we have some

films from Rick Steyn, the Hairy

0:02:260:02:30

Bikers, Wray blog and Nigel Slater.

Our special guest today has been

0:02:300:02:36

keeping audiences are retained for

20 years with shows from Drop The

0:02:360:02:40

Dead Donkey to DCI Banks. Today he

is mainly doing eating so I am

0:02:400:02:45

delighted to welcome Stephen

Tompkinson. Nice to see you. This is

0:02:450:02:53

your third time on the show.

It is,

perhaps trick.

Thank you for taking

0:02:530:02:58

time out of rehearsals for Art.

Yes,

it was the final day of rehearsals

0:02:580:03:07

yesterday and we start in Cambridge

next week for 17 weeks, touring the

0:03:070:03:11

nation.

You are happy with it?

Yes,

fingers crossed.

You know the score,

0:03:110:03:18

heaven and hell. What is your food

heaven?

Venison. It is something I

0:03:180:03:26

have always liked. That is a nice

alternative to stake.

And you love

0:03:260:03:33

wild mushrooms?

I do indeed.

He is

my friend!

What about hell?

It is

0:03:330:03:41

something I have never tried but I

don't like the look of...

You

0:03:410:03:47

haven't tried it?

No, I was going to

throw in at the deep end for tripe.

0:03:470:03:53

It is very brave of you. Tripe is my

hell.

0:03:530:04:01

hell. It is the smell, you know when

you get it into your nose?

Just that

0:04:010:04:07

little bit of mint on top!

0:04:070:04:14

little bit of mint on top!

Put a peg

on your nose and eat it?

As I've

0:04:140:04:18

never tried it, I thought I would

try a new experience and vomiting

0:04:180:04:22

live on television would be one!

If

the viewers give you have and I will

0:04:220:04:28

give you the perfect accommodation

of venison and wild mushrooms so I

0:04:280:04:31

will roast rack of venison and top

with cep crust and I will throw in

0:04:310:04:37

some venison tartare and some

sauteed wild mushrooms. If Stephen

0:04:370:04:42

gets Hell, I will make tripe, tripe

and more tripe. An Asian beef tripe

0:04:420:04:48

and coriander salad and a tripe stew

with some...

I don't like coriander

0:04:480:04:54

either!

Obviously you have to wait

to the end of the show to find out

0:04:540:04:59

which won the viewers vote for. Go

to the Saturday Kitchen website

0:04:590:05:03

before 11am to vote and we also want

your questions. Just dial 0330 123

0:05:030:05:09

14 10.

0:05:090:05:14

14 10. Get dialling now and, as

always, you can join the show on

0:05:140:05:18

social media. You can chip in what

you like. We are going to cook.

0:05:180:05:28

It is the way you walk! Let's start

off. We are making a beautiful rice

0:05:320:05:41

baked so we make making risotto.

They're going to be a lovely source.

0:05:410:05:48

We are making a stock. I am going to

start off with this one. I have

0:05:480:05:55

because it will add to some extra --

cloves.

It is an unusual addition.

0:05:550:06:04

You make vegetable stock and to

start with, Gennaro will agree with

0:06:040:06:08

me, when you go to a market in

Italy, whichever market you go to,

0:06:080:06:13

you always get for free the elements

that will help you make both stock

0:06:130:06:17

and soft free to for your week. You

will leave it in your fridge and add

0:06:170:06:24

to all of your recipes.

Celery,

carrots and onions you are always

0:06:240:06:30

getting free.

And you can have

potatoes and tomatoes in the stock.

0:06:300:06:37

There is no limit to the vegetables

you can put in. I see that you have

0:06:370:06:42

put onion into the pan but there is

whoa whether one should use union or

0:06:420:06:53

garlic. People always discuss about

it. I am for the money and so we

0:06:530:06:58

will chuck the garlic this is going

to have the air we are going to fry

0:06:580:07:13

the objective is to make it lovely

and crunchy for a before we at the

0:07:130:07:20

labels of stock and we are going to

cook it in a lovely way. We are

0:07:200:07:25

going to massage it around for about

two minutes, and then we are going

0:07:250:07:31

to add labels of stock and after

about 15 minutes, when this is going

0:07:310:07:36

to be lovely cooked, we are going to

add up some butter and some lovely

0:07:360:07:44

Parmesan.

I am making the source.

This is a basic rule and we are

0:07:440:07:49

going to use a bit of green. What

other spices?

We are using nutmeg,

0:07:490:07:56

rice paper. If you're feeling more

adventurous you can use black pepper

0:07:560:08:01

or chilli. No recipe is ever

prescriptive in Italy so you do it

0:08:010:08:04

with what you have. You improvise in

the kitchen, as you do in life. Life

0:08:040:08:13

is a celebration, that's for sure.

CHEERING

0:08:130:08:21

In with the green. This B covers of

your cookbook. -- this recipe comes

0:08:210:08:30

from your cookbook.

This is

something you can adapt with

0:08:300:08:32

whatever leftovers you have. If you

made the risotto last night, for

0:08:320:08:37

example, very easily you can

transform it and put it in a mould

0:08:370:08:42

so you are going to grease the mould

with some lovely olive oil. I like

0:08:420:08:48

the extra virgin olive oil, possibly

cold-pressed.

Is this a leftover

0:08:480:08:56

dish, a celebration dish?

It is a

leftover dish that becomes

0:08:560:08:59

tomorrow's dish so it is a never

ending dish with which you can

0:08:590:09:04

always celebrate it is there any day

in which you don't celebrate? I

0:09:040:09:09

don't really see it! We are going to

grease this so it will be important

0:09:090:09:12

for the olive oil to be the best

quality you can get because of the

0:09:120:09:17

smell and also because, when it is

cold-pressed it is actually

0:09:170:09:23

extracted, the juices extracted,

with unheated machines, hence you

0:09:230:09:27

have a lovely olive juice as opposed

to that sort of chemical

0:09:270:09:32

transformation you get with very

heated machines. It is a bit more

0:09:320:09:36

expensive but you get to go less to

the GP, so you have more time for

0:09:360:09:42

the lovely stuff in life, right?

You

have been away filming with Gennaro

0:09:420:09:48

and Jamie recently?

Oh, my God, that

was so much fun! We have been to

0:09:480:09:54

Rome to speak with the world

heritage that we have and they are

0:09:540:09:58

the unknowns, the grandmothers, and

that was some weeks before the pizza

0:09:580:10:04

became world heritage, you know?

# When the moon hits your eyes like

0:10:040:10:11

a big pizza pie

# That's a Mori!

0:10:110:10:15

Well, exactly.

0:10:150:10:21

Well, exactly.

That is all yours!

We

have made it already!

What do you

0:10:210:10:30

need me to do?

Basically, now I will

lead... This rise has been mixed up

0:10:300:10:37

with lovely Parmesan and butter and

with about two thirds of that gravy

0:10:370:10:43

source. What we will need to do very

simply is take this rice, that lets

0:10:430:10:48

say is left over from last night,

and put it in this mould, just chuck

0:10:480:10:55

it in, and then we are going to oven

bake it for 30 minutes and then

0:10:550:10:59

forget about it all.

So you put the

sole in raw and then bake it in the

0:10:590:11:07

other?

Exactly, and we are going to

make it with some citrusy fruits.

0:11:070:11:14

And you want a little julienne of

orange and lemon?

That's what I

0:11:140:11:19

would like, and also some lovely

parsley, flat leaf parsley, slightly

0:11:190:11:26

chopped, always roughly chopped. We

are never very precise! As you can

0:11:260:11:31

see, I do not wear a white hat, I am

not a chef, I am all about home

0:11:310:11:35

food. This dish that dates back from

the 17th century in Naples actually

0:11:350:11:41

arrived in Naples in the same period

in which rice arrived to. Rice was

0:11:410:11:45

somehow refused because maples was

all about macaroni and when rice

0:11:450:11:54

arrived, they said, "What shall we

do with it?" Basically, people would

0:11:540:11:58

use it just when they had stomach

aches as a cure. It was a good way

0:11:580:12:04

to have the kids eat something

nourishing, healthy, and that would

0:12:040:12:08

prevent them from getting sick. Now

it is something delicious. This

0:12:080:12:13

beautiful dish, you can make it with

any leftovers you have sitting down

0:12:130:12:18

board in the fridge. You can have it

with lovely stripes of courgette,

0:12:180:12:22

for example, you can have it with

pancetta, or lovely meatballs,

0:12:220:12:29

either big very small once. Do you

make it with meatballs and tomatoes,

0:12:290:12:34

Gennaro?

Had via a second. If you

would like to ask a question, give

0:12:340:12:40

us a ring now on 0330 123 14 10.

That's 0330 123 14 10. Calls are

0:12:400:12:47

charged at your standard network

rate. And continue!

Yes!

I want to

0:12:470:12:55

know how you make it.

With

meatballs, yes. With garlic, a

0:12:550:13:01

little bit of parsley, a bit of

Parmesan, fried, sauteed, fresh

0:13:010:13:06

tomato. Drop the meatballs inside,

cook the spaghetti or the

0:13:060:13:13

tagliatelle...

I'm fainting!

Please

don't faint! Shall we do this?

0:13:130:13:22

Together, right?

Ready?

OK. The show

must go on, mustn't it!

0:13:220:13:36

must go on, mustn't it! That is a

success.

There is your source, there

0:13:360:13:39

is your garnish.

It is going to be

nice and easy. We are going to put

0:13:390:13:45

our lovely prosecco gravy on top and

around, and then we are going to

0:13:450:13:52

garnish with beautiful orange and

lemon, all around, just the way you

0:13:520:14:01

see fit, and then a little bit of

parsley - why not? Let's not be shy!

0:14:010:14:08

This is a dish you seen before?

Yes,

not this particular one, but kind

0:14:080:14:14

of.

Shall I be mother?

Put it there.

Remind us what that is called.

That

0:14:140:14:23

is rice timbale with the sole and a

lot of love!

0:14:230:14:33

OK, let's go over here. Right, grab

a knife and some plates.

0:14:330:14:42

a knife and some plates.

It looks so

good. We must tasted.

How do you do

0:14:430:14:50

this?

Slice it like so? Yes, this is

one of those cases where you can

0:14:500:14:55

have your cake and eat it too.

Did

you follow that recipe, Stephen?

0:14:550:15:03

Yes, spectacular.

Because, if you

didn't, they are on the website.

If

0:15:030:15:10

ever there are some leftovers and

you make it for your family, the

0:15:100:15:13

following day you can do the

so-called the meal where you put the

0:15:130:15:21

rice in a pan and put it down with

the lid pretty much as you would

0:15:210:15:24

with an omelette, and then you would

eat it as if it was a cake, a rice

0:15:240:15:30

cake. In that case, you can fry it

with olive oil whereas here we have

0:15:300:15:34

used mostly but because rice, the

marriage of rice is usually with

0:15:340:15:38

butter.

Have a seat.

Can I try some?

It is beautiful.

So, with this we

0:15:380:15:50

are going to go with prosecute. An

absolute bargain, 799. It's very

0:15:500:15:58

good. Extra dry. A little more

fruity than the

0:15:580:16:06

fruity than the brut, and it is

slightly drier. I love this with

0:16:110:16:13

this kind of dish. It's great for a

party. Valentine's Day coming up,

0:16:130:16:19

it's a great option. And organic

prosecute from northern Italy,

0:16:190:16:23

lovely part of the world.

Oh my God,

what a marriage of food. Look at

0:16:230:16:30

that. It's so good.

It's real

Italian comfort food.

You find it in

0:16:300:16:39

homes but never in restaurants. You

have to divide this between a horde

0:16:390:16:43

of ravenous hungry people.

And it's

going to go a long way, isn't it? So

0:16:430:16:50

tomorrow you could do something

else.

Absolutely, I will fry it in a

0:16:500:16:54

pan. If you misbehave, I will just

throw it at you.

0:16:540:16:59

LAUGHTER

Cheers.

In Dublin last week, I heard

0:16:590:17:05

one fellow say, I'm going to Rome

for Easter, and he said, no, I am

0:17:050:17:12

going to roam around Baggot Street!

LAUGHTER

0:17:120:17:18

I love it.

Also the wine. It's so

perfect, so good, because each bite

0:17:180:17:31

you have, it is clean and fresh.

The

extra dry bid works well if

0:17:310:17:36

specially with a citrus in the dish.

It lightens it. This is kind of your

0:17:360:17:41

British...

It makes it feel quite

light and summary.

Now, Gennaro,

0:17:410:17:49

what's the next course?

It is going

to be tagliatelle with pancetta

0:17:490:17:53

mushrooms and thyme, linguine with

capers.

You will love it. We look

0:17:530:17:59

forward to that and if you want to

ask questions this morning, call

0:17:590:18:02

0330 123 1410 and lines close at

11am so get dialling the orange you

0:18:020:18:10

can tweet as. Don't forget to vote

for food had a or Food Hell on the

0:18:100:18:16

website. Now let's catch up with

Rick stein on another long weekend

0:18:160:18:22

in Lisbon, which is fast becoming

the biggest foodie hotspot. Take a

0:18:220:18:25

look at this.

0:18:250:18:31

Well, it's some time

since I've been to Lisbon,

0:18:450:18:47

but what I remember most

of all was the seafood.

0:18:470:18:50

But not just the wonderfully fresh

seafood, but the little

0:18:500:18:52

restaurants that sold it,

with, all the time,

0:18:520:18:54

a view over the water -

not the open sea but the River

0:18:540:18:57

Tagus.

0:18:570:18:58

And the other thing was the tiles -

everywhere the buildings seemed

0:18:580:19:01

to be clad in these beautifully

faded blue and green tiles.

0:19:010:19:04

I remember those particularly.

0:19:040:19:05

Just lovely.

0:19:050:19:06

And the other thing were the narrow

streets, often going up

0:19:060:19:08

and down some really,

really steep hills.

0:19:080:19:13

ALL:

Really?

0:19:130:19:14

Yes, really.

0:19:140:19:15

Not so good if you're carrying heavy

filming equipment, but fine for me.

0:19:150:19:19

I don't have to.

0:19:190:19:25

Now, this is a nice, practical,

ordinary sort of hotel.

0:19:250:19:29

It's not going to break the bank

and it has all the accoutrements

0:19:290:19:32

for my long weekend,

namely a bar.

0:19:320:19:38

How often does this happen to me?

0:19:390:19:42

Please work.

0:19:420:19:43

Don't make me have

to go back downstairs.

0:19:430:19:45

Oh, brilliant.

0:19:450:19:48

This is nice and modern.

0:19:480:19:53

A Japanese bathroom

with its little panes.

0:19:530:19:54

The bed looks nice.

0:19:540:19:55

Nice double bed.

0:19:550:19:56

Sofa.

0:19:560:19:57

That'll be good.

0:19:570:19:58

And the view.

0:19:580:20:00

A road and another hotel.

0:20:000:20:02

Well, you can't have everything.

0:20:020:20:05

No, you can't.

0:20:050:20:06

I'd much rather overlook this square

with a view of the River Tagus

0:20:060:20:11

or a view of the castle or this

square, but if, like me,

0:20:110:20:16

you happen to plan your weekend

around mid-June, you may find that

0:20:160:20:20

all the hotels are

booked in the centre

0:20:200:20:23

because of this man -

St Anthony.

0:20:230:20:25

Today is his day.

0:20:250:20:28

St Anthony's patronage is bountiful.

0:20:280:20:31

He is the patron saint

of fishermen, the poor,

0:20:310:20:35

amputees, travellers,

horses, pregnant women and swine

0:20:350:20:39

herds, to name but a few.

0:20:390:20:42

BAND PLAYS

0:20:420:20:45

Summer here

means warmer waters

0:20:450:20:47

and the coming of the sardines.

0:20:470:20:49

They're at their very best, full of

oil and extremely sweet and tasty.

0:20:490:20:55

Now when I have the luxury

of eating a grilled sardine,

0:20:550:20:58

no matter where I am in the world,

I think of Portugal.

0:20:580:21:02

They should be on the national flag.

0:21:020:21:05

SHE SPEAKS PORTUGUESE

0:21:050:21:08

I'm really

looking forward to this.

0:21:080:21:10

I just asked them how to eat this

on bread because, obviously,

0:21:100:21:13

there's loads of bones in a sardine.

0:21:130:21:16

I couldn't totally understand

what she was saying but I got

0:21:160:21:18

the general gist of it.

0:21:180:21:20

I think, basically,

you just take the skin off

0:21:200:21:22

and then you pull it apart.

0:21:220:21:23

It's very hot, but very fresh...

0:21:230:21:27

and very tasty.

0:21:270:21:30

And I noticed that she said,

now you pull out the backbone...

0:21:300:21:35

but you have to eat these bits here.

0:21:350:21:39

There is just something incredibly

wonderful about getting messy

0:21:390:21:43

eating food like this,

which is so good.

0:21:430:21:45

It is sort of part of the whole...

0:21:450:21:47

enjoyment of it.

0:21:470:21:51

You'd love this.

0:21:510:21:52

I promise that.

0:21:520:21:55

UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYS

0:21:550:22:02

'My very first breakfast

here in Lisbon has to be this -

0:22:230:22:26

'the famous pasteis de Belem,

'the most brilliant custard tart

0:22:260:22:29

you've ever tasted.' I'd go further

and say that these sweet,

0:22:290:22:31

mellow, warm, very gooey

and exceedingly tasty little tarts

0:22:310:22:34

were a real eye-opener for me.

0:22:340:22:38

And this cafe-cum-bakery

with its rabbit warren

0:22:380:22:39

of tile-encrusted rooms

is a sheer delight.

0:22:390:22:44

Naturally, the recipe

is a closely guarded secret,

0:22:440:22:48

and so from eight in the morning

until 11 at night,

0:22:480:22:51

the queues are always there.

0:22:510:22:57

Well, I'm extremely partial

to a custard tart, but they don't

0:22:570:23:00

get any better than these.

0:23:000:23:02

What makes them so special

is the extraordinary softness

0:23:020:23:06

of the custard and the crispness

and the lightness of the pastry.

0:23:060:23:13

Seriously, when you bite

into them, it's bliss.

0:23:130:23:17

But the other thing

is when you just put

0:23:170:23:20

a little bit of cinnamon -

not too much - and a little bit

0:23:200:23:22

of icing sugar on the top,

it just completes it.

0:23:220:23:27

Interestingly, these tarts

are a part of history,

0:23:270:23:30

because next door to here

is a monastery, and in

0:23:300:23:33

the 15th and 16th century,

monasteries were like hotels.

0:23:330:23:38

They were the only places that

you could actually get

0:23:380:23:40

a bed for the night,

and these custard tarts came out

0:23:400:23:43

of that and became so popular that

in about the 18th century,

0:23:430:23:47

this shop opened, and the rest,

of course, is history.

0:23:470:23:51

But what is so good, I think,

is food and history.

0:23:510:23:54

It's not just about the recipes

but it's also about the ingredients

0:23:540:23:59

because, as you know,

the Portuguese went everywhere

0:23:590:24:02

in the world and they brought sugar

cane back from the Americas,

0:24:020:24:06

and they brought cinnamon back

from the East Indies.

0:24:060:24:09

So there is a real food chain there,

and I think that's what makes

0:24:090:24:13

them so special as well.

0:24:130:24:19

Thanks for that, Rick. That custard

tart had a closely guarded secret

0:24:250:24:29

recipe.

This one hasn't so this is a

very British custard tart I'm

0:24:290:24:34

making, very simple recipe. Sugar,

double cream, a lot of eggs, vanilla

0:24:340:24:38

and nutmeg and that's it.

0:24:380:24:41

Very easy to make. I'm going to put

that with poached rhubarb and poach

0:24:420:24:47

it in stem ginger and blood oranges

which are knocking around at the

0:24:470:24:50

moment so what we need to do is

bring the cream up to simmer. With

0:24:500:24:57

some vanilla. I have two vanilla

pods going in there. One litre of

0:24:570:25:01

cream. Mix eggs and sugar and bake

it. It gets baked for about one hour

0:25:010:25:07

at 110, a low temperature because

you don't want it to bubble and

0:25:070:25:10

blister. And then B will pair it

with a rhubarb. Right, let's talk

0:25:100:25:15

about Art. It has been kicking

around since the early 90s?

Yes, it

0:25:150:25:24

was huge in London's West End. I

made my West End debut with it 18

0:25:240:25:30

years ago, so I am revisiting it.

It's fascinating you are back in it

0:25:300:25:34

taking it on.

The same part. Ivan.

Are you bring a different dimension

0:25:340:25:42

to it?

It centres around a

friendship of three guys, and so

0:25:420:25:53

revisiting it, it's a 25 year

friendship we are talking about. And

0:25:530:25:59

Serge buys a painting which looks on

first glance looks like a white

0:25:590:26:05

canvas.

Had you seen it?

Yes, in

Paris.

That is when it was first on

0:26:050:26:16

and Sean Connery was the producer,

his wife saw it, and then they got

0:26:160:26:20

in touch with David Pugh, who is

producing it to this day, so that

0:26:200:26:24

painting becomes a catalyst for this

25 year friendship, possibly

0:26:240:26:29

dissolving because one of the guys

thinks that his friend has gone

0:26:290:26:32

completely mad spending a small

fortune on a painting. He just does

0:26:320:26:37

not get it. My character, they are

like fire and ice, those two

0:26:370:26:40

characters. I'm like the bassist in

spinal tap, like lukewarm water.

0:26:400:26:48

It's a particular relationship,

isn't it? You have a relationship

0:26:480:26:53

outside of them. It's quite fragile.

Yes, his professional life has

0:26:530:26:59

always been a failure. He's about to

get married for the first time in

0:26:590:27:03

two weeks when you join the play,

and he's very henpecked by his

0:27:030:27:08

mother and it looks like he's about

to be henpecked by his new wife.

0:27:080:27:12

These other two guys are his

bedrock. When they seem to be

0:27:120:27:18

falling apart at the seams, then it

makes it all the more poignant. 18

0:27:180:27:24

years later, where would you start a

new 25 year friendship from?

Is

0:27:240:27:30

there anything new? Has it changed

since the early 90s?

I don't know it

0:27:300:27:34

has because modern art still

polarises people. You either love it

0:27:340:27:42

or hated, and if you don't like it

you can't understand why people do,

0:27:420:27:46

and vice versa.

This is kind of the

extreme of what a lot of young

0:27:460:27:51

British artists would do?

Yes.

There

was a lot of artwork coming out that

0:27:510:27:56

people would just amused by.

Yes,

exactly. It is a bit like the

0:27:560:28:04

emperors new clothes sometime. It

has an amazing effect on the

0:28:040:28:07

audience. Some people really like

the painting, some people don't get

0:28:070:28:10

it at all. There's a lot of people

who are in the middle but what

0:28:100:28:14

happens is the audience really,

really fall for these characters and

0:28:140:28:18

want this friendship to stay

together.

Right, so they are three

0:28:180:28:23

distinct characters?

With Denis

Lawson and Nigel Haver 's.

Great

0:28:230:28:28

cast. Do you know them?

Yes, I have

known them similar to the play for

0:28:280:28:35

over 20 odd years. It's lovely. Life

imitating art. You see how neatly it

0:28:350:28:42

fits together?

Back to the recipe,

my cream is simmering with the

0:28:420:28:49

vanilla. Going to turn that off. In

here put the sugar and the egg

0:28:490:28:53

yolks, and keep it moving because we

don't want scrambled eggs. Mix it

0:28:530:28:57

together and overhear I have got the

rhubarb, a little bit of sugar, some

0:28:570:29:03

blood orange zest, juice, and the

stem ginger.

Is this the season for

0:29:030:29:08

blood orange?

Yes, they are not

around for long, delicious, sweet,

0:29:080:29:13

but they are quite tricky to get

hold of. It's not a regular thing a

0:29:130:29:21

lot of greengrocers will have.

Right.

In Sicily.

Yeah, well, that's

0:29:210:29:30

handy! Thank you.

0:29:300:29:35

You love stage? Yes, especially with

the comedy because you get the

0:29:360:29:45

immediate reaction from the

audience.

Do you like that

0:29:450:29:47

immediacy? We know you from so much

big TV.

It is a while since I have

0:29:470:29:55

toured and it is a gorgeous way to

visit places.

It was interesting

0:29:550:30:00

what you were saying about

everything being shot out of order

0:30:000:30:02

when you are doing film and TV.

With

a play you have a bit more control

0:30:020:30:09

over the beginning, middle and end

and the audience are very much a

0:30:090:30:13

part of it and keep it fresh.

You

are on our screens at the moment, in

0:30:130:30:20

Trolleys. It is very funny.

It is

lovely and it is our supermarket

And

0:30:200:30:32

it is there all the time?

Yes, it

has been there for the last seven

0:30:320:30:40

years so we don't do any filming

outside of the supermarket and there

0:30:400:30:43

are known night shoots so it is the

nearest thing to a nine to five.

A

0:30:430:30:50

little tip, that is a blind baked

tart, put it in the oven at 110,

0:30:500:30:54

pour the mix of the middle and then

you won't slot it all over. So then

0:30:540:31:01

the rhubarb, you could leave it a

couple of hours or overnight and put

0:31:010:31:05

it into a warm pan, a bit of dessert

wine going in. Bring it up to heat,

0:31:050:31:12

put a lid on and turn it off.

This

is the season of beetroots now?

Of

0:31:120:31:22

beetroot?

I beg your pardon,

beetroot! It is the colours!

0:31:220:31:30

beetroot! It is the colours!

Root,

blood oranges, both lovely.

A 17

0:31:300:31:36

week run is a long time to be

focused on doing one thing every

0:31:360:31:39

single night. Is there something you

do every night to maintain that?

The

0:31:390:31:46

play is about an hour and 25 minutes

so it seems like it should be a

0:31:460:31:49

breeze but when it is just three of

your concentration levels are

0:31:490:31:52

fantastic. Doing a tour is

fantastic, especially with the

0:31:520:31:57

comedy, to see how it varies from

place to place. When the play is

0:31:570:32:01

performed in Paris, it is taken a

lot more seriously and the author

0:32:010:32:06

was quite perturbed that at won the

Olivier award for best comedy over

0:32:060:32:11

here, when it is treated very

different there and she sees it

0:32:110:32:16

different. It will be different

every night in whichever town and

0:32:160:32:19

city we play.

When you take it on

the road is there a marked

0:32:190:32:23

difference between the jokes people

laugh at?

Yes, and some audiences

0:32:230:32:29

are more reserved. Newcastle, for

example, is one of the best theatres

0:32:290:32:33

and audiences and I'm really looking

forward to going there.

0:32:330:32:42

forward to going there.

Wires that?

I don't know, they just love going

0:32:420:32:44

to the theatres and our game for

anything.

Do you get people who will

0:32:440:32:53

sit and ponder?

Yes and you think

you've lost them but they show it

0:32:530:32:56

with their applause at the end. Some

are a bit reserved with getting

0:32:560:33:01

their laughter out.

A big difference

between North and South?

There can

0:33:010:33:05

be, yes, indeed.

Here is the tart,

with a little bit of rhubarb.

Sums

0:33:050:33:16

up this show, a little bit of

rhubarb!

That is Matt Tebbutt's new

0:33:160:33:23

motto!

That is beautiful, with the

ginger as well.

A bit of a departure

0:33:230:33:33

now. Perfect timing to make a tart

because today is the 70th birthday

0:33:330:33:39

of somebody very special, our

cameraman on camera one, Lofty or

0:33:390:33:45

Phil The Fork, as he is often

called, because he is first in to

0:33:450:33:49

taste the food and has cutlery in

his back pocket. So, Lofty, downed

0:33:490:33:55

tools for just a second.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:33:550:34:00

You knew this was coming! Happy

birthday!

0:34:050:34:19

birthday! Can I just say, when we

looked at this Campbell, we wondered

0:34:200:34:24

how long it would burn for so we

looked at the instructions

0:34:240:34:27

instructions said," light touch

paper and retire immediately," which

0:34:270:34:32

I thought was quite presumptuous of

the makers to know how old you were,

0:34:320:34:37

so we don't need you to retire

immediately! Have you got your

0:34:370:34:42

cutlery in your back pocket?

I have!

It is posh Gold cutlery, all this,

0:34:420:34:51

you could use. This is more you!

What is going on?

Just a bit of live

0:34:510:35:01

TV!

Who is on camera one?

Don't get

used to it, he is coming back. Take

0:35:010:35:12

that back. That is for you.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:35:120:35:20

Watch the heart! I know that was a

surprise. What will I be making for

0:35:230:35:27

Stephen at the end of the show? Will

it be food heaven, a combination of

0:35:270:35:31

venison and wild mushrooms? I will

go all out with a roast rack of

0:35:310:35:40

venison and a brothel and tartare

and I will spoil him by adding wild

0:35:400:35:46

mushrooms and a crunchy cep grass.

If Stephen gets help, I will be

0:35:460:35:51

making tripe two ways. I will make

an Asian tripe salad with coriander,

0:35:510:36:00

served with fennel. Don't forget,

what you get is down to you, you

0:36:000:36:06

have 45 minutes -- 25 minutes left

to vote, and every vote matters. Go

0:36:060:36:14

to the website and have your say.

Enough excitement, it is time for

0:36:140:36:19

the Hairy Bikers, who are on the

hunt for something quintessentially

0:36:190:36:21

British.

0:36:210:36:22

It's quite good being

out here, isn't it?

0:36:360:36:38

Cos they don't it knock it our way.

0:36:380:36:40

It's brill.

0:36:400:36:41

Oh, crikey, it's like

watching paint dry.

0:36:410:36:43

It is, aye.

0:36:430:36:44

But there's nothing

so quintessentially British

0:36:440:36:45

as the thwack of leather on willow.

0:36:450:36:47

Freshly brewed tea in china cups.

0:36:470:36:48

A tranche of Victoria sponge.

0:36:480:36:49

Cucumber sandwiches.

0:36:490:36:50

Give over!

0:36:500:36:51

When was the last time that you ever

ate a cucumber sandwich?

0:36:510:36:54

Blargh!

0:36:540:36:56

We've gotta come up with something

better than a cucumber sandwich,

0:36:560:36:58

dude, at half-time or whatever

the flippin' heck they call it.

0:36:580:37:01

We better get a move on...

0:37:010:37:02

PLAYERS:

Oh!

0:37:020:37:03

..because the way this

lot are playing, it's

0:37:030:37:05

not going to be long.

0:37:050:37:09

Dude, it's gotta be something

quintessentially British.

0:37:090:37:11

Aye, I've got it.

0:37:110:37:12

A curry!

0:37:120:37:16

But with a particularly

British spice.

0:37:160:37:17

Howzat?!

0:37:170:37:18

Come here and I'll show you.

0:37:180:37:22

HE WHISTLES

0:37:220:37:25

CHEERING

0:37:250:37:26

Curry!

0:37:260:37:27

Yes!

0:37:270:37:28

Not half.

0:37:280:37:30

Right.

0:37:300:37:31

And this is a peculiar curry that

we've never cooked before.

0:37:310:37:33

No.

0:37:330:37:37

It's a new one in our repertoire-y.

0:37:370:37:39

It is and what a repertoire-y...

0:37:390:37:41

Shorshe...shorshe...

0:37:410:37:42

It's really hard to pronounce.

0:37:420:37:44

Shorshe Murgi.

0:37:440:37:45

Shorshe Murgi.

0:37:450:37:46

It means, translated,

"mustard chicken."

0:37:460:37:47

Oh, does it?

0:37:470:37:48

Yes.

0:37:480:37:49

Oh.

0:37:490:37:50

And this is what's

special about our curry.

0:37:500:37:52

This is what it's all

about - mustard seeds.

0:37:520:37:54

Yellow mustard seeds

and brown mustard seeds.

0:37:540:37:56

And that is the British ingredient.

0:37:560:37:57

Cos that's what you have

with your roast beef.

0:37:570:37:59

And now, of course, you've got

mustard with one of the best chicken

0:37:590:38:02

curries you're ever going to taste.

0:38:020:38:04

You know what you need

for a chicken curry?

0:38:040:38:06

A chicken.

0:38:060:38:08

First off, I take an onion,

peel it and chop it.

0:38:080:38:11

Everything starts with a peeled

and chopped onion, doesn't it?

0:38:110:38:13

Well, apart from

evolution, of course.

0:38:130:38:14

We started with the egg.

0:38:140:38:16

It didn't.

0:38:160:38:17

It started with the chicken.

0:38:170:38:18

I keep telling you, you cannot

have an egg without a chicken.

0:38:180:38:22

I want about a 5cm piece of ginger.

0:38:220:38:26

Do you know the little takeaway that

I use at home, the Tandoori Oven?

0:38:260:38:29

Yeah, yeah.

0:38:290:38:30

Poor old chef, he died.

0:38:300:38:32

Really?

0:38:320:38:33

Mm.

0:38:330:38:34

It was tragic.

0:38:340:38:35

He slipped in the kitchen

and fell into a "korma."

0:38:350:38:39

A-ha-hey!

0:38:390:38:40

Take four cloves of garlic.

0:38:400:38:44

My garlic and ginger.

0:38:440:38:45

This now needs to be

pureed into a paste.

0:38:450:38:48

Due to the fact that I'm

on the edge of a cricket field

0:38:480:38:51

and I've got no leccy,

I've got to improvise.

0:38:510:38:54

But I had an idea - bing!

0:38:540:38:56

Light bulb moment.

0:38:560:38:57

In Thailand they use a blending

method called pounding, you know.

0:38:570:39:04

Well, it's not a Thai pestle

and mortar but this little belter,

0:39:040:39:07

this'll sort this out.

0:39:070:39:12

DISHES CLATTER LOUDLY

0:39:120:39:20

So, the marinade.

0:39:240:39:25

Half a lemon, half

a teaspoon of turmeric.

0:39:250:39:30

If you can get it, use

Kashmiri chilli powder

0:39:300:39:32

because it's great for colour.

0:39:320:39:35

Look at how vibrant that colour is.

0:39:350:39:38

Every Bengali housewife's

favourite - the mustard oil.

0:39:380:39:42

Take the skin off the chicken

so the flavours can get

0:39:420:39:45

right into the meat.

0:39:450:39:48

Is it working, dude?

0:39:480:39:49

Yeah.

0:39:490:39:50

Works well, this.

0:39:500:39:51

Forget your processor -

buy a cricket bat.

0:39:510:39:55

Right, dude, marinade's in.

0:39:550:39:58

I need to make another paste

now, which is a mustard

0:39:580:40:00

seed and chilli paste.

0:40:000:40:04

You can use the dark

or the brown mustard seeds.

0:40:040:40:06

I want a spoon of each.

0:40:060:40:07

Right, go on.

0:40:070:40:13

Into that, I want some chillies.

0:40:130:40:18

Two of these little fiery devils.

0:40:180:40:21

And just give it a quick bash.

0:40:210:40:26

HE LAUGHS

0:40:260:40:27

Paste number two.

0:40:270:40:28

Maestro, the pan is yours.

0:40:280:40:30

Right, so you want about

a tablespoon of mustard oil.

0:40:300:40:37

Cinnamon.

0:40:370:40:38

Cloves go in.

0:40:380:40:39

Two black cardamoms.

0:40:390:40:40

Break those down a little bit just

so the oils can come out.

0:40:400:40:44

So half a teaspoon of nigella seed.

0:40:440:40:47

Two more little green chillies.

0:40:470:40:49

Just slash them like that.

0:40:490:40:50

I want the flavour

rather than the heat.

0:40:500:40:53

But when you want the dish you can

just pick the chillies out.

0:40:530:40:56

There will always be some burke

who'll go, "I can eat it."

0:40:560:40:59

Well, good luck to them.

0:40:590:41:00

When the cardamoms are popping,

the onions come a-rocking.

0:41:000:41:06

It really has worked rather well

with me cricket bat.

0:41:060:41:09

Oh, the mustard oil

with the cardamoms,

0:41:090:41:14

the chillies, the ginger -

it's everything I love about food.

0:41:140:41:16

Put the chicken in?

0:41:160:41:17

Mm-hm.

0:41:170:41:18

And this has been skinned,

which is what we want.

0:41:180:41:22

The reason that we want to make sure

this is on the bone is cos

0:41:220:41:25

it just adds flavour.

0:41:250:41:26

And in 15 minutes' time we pop

in the mustard paste and some water.

0:41:260:41:30

See you later.

0:41:300:41:37

# I don't like cricket

0:41:370:41:38

# Oh,

no

Oh, no

# I love it #

0:41:380:41:42

# I love it

0:41:420:41:43

# I don't like cricket...

0:41:430:41:47

Oof!

0:41:470:41:52

# I love it

0:41:520:41:53

# I don't

like cricket...

0:41:530:41:55

It'll go wrong.

0:41:550:41:57

Come here, you, ya lummox.

0:41:570:42:04

Oh!

0:42:040:42:05

Massive flavour.

0:42:050:42:06

That is a good curry

from Bengal to Birmingham.

0:42:060:42:09

Those that want a leg can

have a leg, those that want

0:42:090:42:12

a breast can have a breast,

but everybody is going

0:42:120:42:15

to want the sauce.

0:42:150:42:16

Garnish with coriander

and fresh chilli.

0:42:160:42:21

Right, that is like no other

cucumber sandwich I've ever seen.

0:42:210:42:27

Ooh!

0:42:270:42:28

Hey-hey!

0:42:280:42:29

Our shmoozy...sherti...shusheshe...

0:42:290:42:31

Shorshe Mur-Kingi - a Bengali curry

with a British twist.

0:42:310:42:39

Thanks, lads, that definitely beats

a cucumber sandwich. Still to come,

0:42:460:42:51

Nigel Slater has more simple

suppers, pork chops with Apple cider

0:42:510:42:57

plus metallic chowder. And as it is

through 20 suite we replace the

0:42:570:43:02

omelette child with a pancake

challenge so time for me to crack

0:43:020:43:08

out some great jokes. Let's have

Gennaro and Lenora and hope they

0:43:080:43:14

don't flip out and argue the toss

and there will be some batter even

0:43:140:43:20

if the pants fall flat it up will

Stephen get food heaven, venison

0:43:200:43:25

with wild mushrooms, or hell, tripe

with fennel and chilli? We will find

0:43:250:43:32

out later underdog but your pounds

down, guys.

0:43:320:43:42

We are doing two different pasta

dishes in honour of the great

0:43:420:43:45

Antonio Carluccio.

0:43:450:43:50

Antonio Carluccio.

In this

spaghetti, everything I am I02

0:43:500:43:53

spaghetti, especially handmade!

It

is like a kitchen takeover. What is

0:43:530:44:00

going on?

Cut about three sizes.

Just three?

Three and a half.

Why

0:44:000:44:18

these dishes?

This is in, is to

Antonio, you wanted to cook

0:44:180:44:30

something very quick and Antonio

used to be angry and used to say,

0:44:300:44:35

make something quick! Put them

inside there.

This was his go to

0:44:350:44:42

quick dish?

You can see, I am doing

two dishes instead of one.

I'm going

0:44:420:44:49

to speed up.

Put some salt inside. I

need some chilli for one. That is

0:44:490:45:01

garlic. I am going to do the other

one.

Have you got chilly in both?

I

0:45:010:45:08

have chilli and garlic in both.

0:45:080:45:13

Both these recipes come from your

last book?

Yes, from my last book of

0:45:130:45:18

pasta. OK, the garlic, give it a

little bit of a cake. As soon as it

0:45:180:45:26

starts to sweat, look at this one.

-- a bit of a cake. Some capers.

0:45:260:45:38

These sticks behind us, tell us

about this.

Antonio used to love

0:45:380:45:45

those sticks and we always used to

compete, I would carve my stick. We

0:45:450:45:57

used to go in the forest, in the

woods, to find mushrooms and we

0:45:570:46:03

needed something to look around. The

walking sticks were really, really

0:46:030:46:07

nice.

They are beautiful. How long

did it take?

About one week to make

0:46:070:46:14

one of them.

Really? Your friendship

is a very genuine one, wasn't it? A

0:46:140:46:22

lot of pairings on television is not

necessarily what you would expect

0:46:220:46:25

off-screen but yours was very

different.

Original. This is what we

0:46:250:46:30

used to be and this is what we are

now. I miss him, yes, I have to say,

0:46:300:46:35

I really miss him, quite a lot,

because I used to phone him up on

0:46:350:46:44

Sunday, and now I can't do that any

more. I used to insult him.

Who do

0:46:440:46:50

you insult now?

LAUGHTER

0:46:500:46:54

You can see how quick it is.

Garlic

and capers inside there. Pancetta

0:46:540:47:02

and wild mushrooms with chilli at

the last minute, I will put in some

0:47:020:47:06

wild mushrooms, porcini, in a little

bit of water. The Pasteur goes

0:47:060:47:13

straight in. I need you to chop some

parsley.

OK, just a little bit.

0:47:130:47:21

Jamie to you out recently for a

special birthday. Can we say how old

0:47:210:47:25

you are? 69?

You got it.

You are

nearly the same age as Lofty.

He is

0:47:250:47:40

younger than me.

He is 70.

Jesus!

I

saw on Instagram, there were the two

0:47:400:47:51

review in his restaurant.

He took me

to the shops. He bought me a suit.

0:47:510:47:58

Assured. A pair of shoes. Attire.

Pair of socks. And append.

0:47:580:48:10

Pair of socks. And append. -- a pen.

What does that say about your

0:48:100:48:16

sartorial elegance?

He said, "You

always look smart." They opened

0:48:160:48:22

especially for me.

And then he went

out for a lovely lunch?

We had lunch

0:48:220:48:29

and we really enjoyed it. Quality

time.

Nice to be able to do that.

0:48:290:48:39

What do you want me to do?

Saute

this one. Go. A squeeze of lemon.

0:48:390:48:48

Lemon zest, as well?

No.

0:48:480:48:56

Lemon zest, as well?

No. Look at

that.

Do you want some liquor, as

0:48:570:49:03

well?

A little bit.

Why are you

using linguine in one dish and

0:49:030:49:11

tagliatelle in the other?

It goes

well with seafood, linguine. This

0:49:110:49:20

one has capers, so it's a better

when you eat it. You get a lovely

0:49:200:49:26

sensation. With the other one, wild

mushrooms, there's a little bit of

0:49:260:49:31

juice and sauce inside and it stays

on top and you can enjoy it.

You are

0:49:310:49:37

still very busy every day in the

kitchen. Jamie's Italian.

Have you

0:49:370:49:43

been?

Yes, I love it, I took my

kids. The Pasteur, it does so much

0:49:430:49:51

to bring really, really good pasta

to such a wide audience.

We make

0:49:510:49:54

fresh pasta. Every single day.

Unless you go to a high-end

0:49:540:50:02

restaurant, that's very often

something you missed.

Yes, it is. We

0:50:020:50:06

have a passion for pasta. We have

special machines all the way from

0:50:060:50:13

Italy. Squeeze a bit of lemon. We

love what we are doing. A little bit

0:50:130:50:19

of oil.

I want to talk to buy the

capers. You are using salted as

0:50:190:50:25

opposed to the ones in brine. Why?

In brine, it has a touch of vinegar.

0:50:250:50:34

Sometimes it becomes very difficult

to remove it. When you use the salty

0:50:340:50:42

one, you leave it for a few minutes

inside the water, and then the salt

0:50:420:50:46

will disappear. But you still get a

lovely taste.

Is that clear?

0:50:460:50:55

LAUGHTER

Excellent. The breadcrumbs.

This is

0:50:550:51:01

just breadcrumbs, sauteed little

bit, because when you put inside

0:51:010:51:08

your mouth, crunch. It starts to

dissolve, it's so nice. And then you

0:51:080:51:15

get biting on it.

I do know what's

happening next. Quite frankly.

0:51:150:51:28

happening next. Quite frankly.

Some

nice Parmesan cheese. On top. This

0:51:280:51:34

is Peggy Arena. It's a lovely dish.

-- pecorino. I got this beautiful

0:51:340:51:45

olive oil, a drizzle on it. Don't be

afraid to use olive oil. Olive oil

0:51:450:51:52

is very, very good for you.

Put it

on the side. Beautiful. Two dishes

0:51:520:51:59

in six and a half minutes, something

like that, it's very good.

0:51:590:52:07

like that, it's very good. 69, you

can't be doing that any more. Watch

0:52:070:52:10

yourself.

Tagliatelle with pancetta

mushrooms and thyme. And linguine

0:52:100:52:19

with capers and olives.

Beautiful. A

drizzle of olive oil. That's it.

0:52:190:52:28

Come on. Come and have a lie down.

LAUGHTER

0:52:280:52:34

Right, here. Dies in wherever you

want to go first. -- dies in. --

0:52:340:52:45

shall we have a drink?

I found a

wine from Sicily. It is Nicosia Etna

0:52:470:52:57

Rosso. 11 quid from Marks & Spencer

is the quality of the wine I have to

0:52:570:53:02

say is absolutely stunning. Why is

so good from there? It's on the

0:53:020:53:09

volcano. It gives a real intensity

to lift the flavour of wine but

0:53:090:53:13

because its 700 metres above sea

level, you get freshness, so it's a

0:53:130:53:17

perfect pairing. A local grape. It's

a risky business. On a volcano. Mick

0:53:170:53:29

Hucknall from simply red had a

vineyard in there. Be used to grow

0:53:290:53:33

his own rape finds there. It's

increasingly fashionable. It is

0:53:330:53:37

southern Italy's answer.

Oh my God!

Amazing. Amazing. I love it.

0:53:370:53:52

Amazing. Amazing. I love it. Olly,

how do you manage to find the

0:53:520:53:55

perfect marriage of whatever we

cook?

Inspired by your cooking,

0:53:550:53:59

Gennaro, the only way.

What a lovely

man. Lifted up. Don't worry.

Good?

0:53:590:54:15

Beautiful.

Excellent. Cheers to you.

And cheers to Antonio. Bless him.

0:54:150:54:25

Right, that was delicious. As it's

Valentine's Day on Wednesday, who

0:54:250:54:28

better to give as a desert recipe in

his romantic French annex van

0:54:280:54:33

Raymond Blanc and it's his ultimate

chocolate tart.

0:54:330:54:46

There are hundreds

0:54:520:54:54

of varieties of chocolate

on the market and for Raymond,

0:54:540:54:56

100% dark chocolate is irresistible.

0:54:560:54:57

That is seriously bitter.

0:54:570:54:58

That's what I love the most.

0:54:580:55:00

It's got so many lovely qualities.

0:55:000:55:01

It melts in the mouth,

wonderful flavours.

0:55:010:55:03

When you feel melancholic, "Oh,

let's have a bit of chocolate."

0:55:030:55:05

You feel a bit under pressure, "Oh,

let's have a bit of chocolate."

0:55:050:55:08

You feel happy, you want chocolate,

so you must always, at all times,

0:55:080:55:12

have chocolate in your cupboards.

0:55:120:55:13

That's always de rigueur.

0:55:130:55:15

To test his office staff's taste

buds, he's taking them a selection,

0:55:150:55:18

ranging from a sweet milk chocolate

to the darkest chocolate available.

0:55:180:55:26

OK, Adam, let's see the girls.

0:55:260:55:28

See if they love their

chocolate, OK Hello!

0:55:280:55:34

I have decided...

0:55:340:55:39

Can I have your attention one

minute I have decided

0:55:390:55:41

to change the bonus system.

0:55:410:55:42

We pay by chocolate now.

0:55:420:55:43

OK, so you can do a bit

of testing of chocolate.

0:55:430:55:46

Who doesn't like chocolate?

0:55:460:55:48

Number nine is the cheapest,

containing just 20% cocoa solids.

0:55:480:55:54

So which one you prefer?

0:55:540:55:56

Number nine is beautiful.

0:55:560:55:57

Number nine, yes.

0:55:570:55:59

Number nine is brilliant.

0:55:590:56:00

It's like...

0:56:000:56:01

Yes, most of you have

loved the number nine.

0:56:010:56:04

Actually that's the worst chocolate.

0:56:040:56:06

It's very highly sweet,

very addictive, the sweetness.

0:56:060:56:13

It's got only 20% cocoa content.

0:56:130:56:17

I really feel so, so disappointed,

so from tomorrow we are going to hav

0:56:170:56:25

we are going to have

0:56:250:56:27

a chocolate tasting every day

at four o'clock exactly.

0:56:270:56:29

Hooray!

0:56:290:56:32

Adam!

0:56:360:56:37

I asked you bran flakes this morning

I was very clear about it.

0:56:370:56:41

Raymond's next recipe

is a chocolate delice,

0:56:410:56:44

a rich, dark chocolate tart

with a nutty, crunchy base.

0:56:440:56:50

The delice au chocolat is a bit

like a tarte au chocolat.

0:56:500:56:54

For the base, I've used bran flakes.

0:56:540:56:58

And you just...

0:56:580:57:03

crunch them up nicely,

and you have praline.

0:57:030:57:05

Praline you can buy in any shops.

0:57:050:57:07

You can also make it yourself.

0:57:070:57:10

Praline paste is easy to make.

0:57:100:57:13

All you need to do is blitz equal

quantities of roasted hazelnuts

0:57:130:57:16

and caramelised sugar in a blender.

0:57:160:57:21

Then you mix the flakes

to your hazelnut paste.

0:57:210:57:24

So simple.

0:57:240:57:32

And that's my base for my tart.

0:57:380:57:40

Taste it.

0:57:400:57:41

Really, really lovely.

0:57:410:57:42

Yummy.

0:57:420:57:43

Place the mixture between two sheets

of greaseproof paper

0:57:430:57:45

and get ready to roll.

0:57:450:57:46

Adam, can I have my

rolling pin, please?

0:57:460:57:48

I want a big one, a serious one.

0:57:480:57:50

That one, I find it a bit too thin.

0:57:500:57:52

Tres bien.

0:57:520:57:53

That's fine.

0:57:530:57:54

Tres bien.

0:57:540:57:55

It is wonderful, very nutty.

0:57:550:57:59

There's a nut texture here and, Adam

a better palette knife, mon petit.

0:57:590:58:04

Thank you very much, Adam.

0:58:040:58:07

And that, I'm going to

keep it in the fridge.

0:58:120:58:14

Ah, now, le chocolat.

0:58:160:58:20

Let's go.

0:58:200:58:21

Tres bien.

0:58:210:58:22

Next, the filling for

the chocolate tart.

0:58:220:58:25

I'm going to boil my milk

and my cream together.

0:58:250:58:28

The eggs...

0:58:280:58:31

Tres bien.

0:58:350:58:36

So our milk now is rising,

is rising, is rising up.

0:58:360:58:40

I'm going to pour it over my eggs.

0:58:400:58:44

The eggs are magical.

0:58:440:58:46

The eggs are bonding that cream,

and now all that I've got to do

0:58:460:58:49

is to add my chocolate.

0:58:490:58:52

Oh, la!

0:58:520:58:53

Beautiful chocolate.

0:58:530:58:55

Look at it.

0:58:550:58:57

Voila.

0:58:570:58:58

For this, Raymond's

using a dark chocolate

0:58:580:59:00

containing 70% cocoa solids.

0:59:000:59:07

You see?

0:59:070:59:08

Beautiful.

0:59:080:59:11

Yes.

0:59:110:59:12

When the mixture is smooth,

pour it into a pastry frame.

0:59:120:59:16

Voila.

0:59:160:59:21

Then put it in the fridge to set

for at least six hours.

0:59:210:59:25

Voila.

0:59:250:59:31

While the tart sets,

prepare the decorations that

0:59:310:59:33

will transform this simple dish

into a work of art.

0:59:330:59:38

First, make a caramel.

0:59:380:59:41

Melt sugar in a heavy

base pan until it's rich

0:59:410:59:44

and golden in colour.

0:59:440:59:46

What I want is a bit of darker

colour so I can give a bit

0:59:460:59:51

of flavour to my caramel.

0:59:510:59:52

Put a roasted hazelnut

on a cocktail stick,

0:59:520:59:55

dip it in the caramel and pin

in some Blu-tac to

0:59:550:59:57

produce a long tail.

0:59:571:00:03

Look at that - beautiful!

1:00:031:00:05

Next, a light coffee foam.

1:00:051:00:06

Add melted gelatine to some strong

coffee and a little sugar,

1:00:061:00:09

then whisk until frothy.

1:00:091:00:16

So you've got the richness

in the hazelnut, the praline,

1:00:161:00:18

and then the richness again

in the chocolate.

1:00:181:00:20

So I want a sauce which is like air,

you know, something so light.

1:00:201:00:24

OK?

1:00:241:00:25

Once the tart is set,

it's time to decorate.

1:00:251:00:28

Dust with some grated 70% chocolate.

1:00:281:00:31

Nice textures, no?

1:00:311:00:33

Icing sugar, please!

1:00:331:00:38

Tres bien.

1:00:381:00:39

Just very lightly...

1:00:391:00:40

It's so simple.

1:00:401:00:41

No sweat, no?

1:00:411:00:49

Here's just a tiny little garnish -

very pretty, very dainty.

1:00:551:01:01

Voila, tout simplement.

1:01:011:01:09

Thanks, Raymond. Simple as that. The

heaven and hell boat is now closed

1:01:171:01:22

and Stephen's fate is sealed.

1:01:221:01:26

Let's take some calls. First is

Richard.

I picked up a lobster from

1:01:261:01:35

the fishmonger this morning and I

would like some advice on what to do

1:01:351:01:38

with it.

1:01:381:01:44

with it.

Lobster can be an

untameable thing but you can tame it

1:01:441:01:46

by putting it in a pan with some

lovely tomatoes, some lovely

1:01:461:01:51

parsley, fresh sage, fresh basil and

you make a lovely source to

1:01:511:01:55

accompany your spaghetti, black and

white, and the day after, you

1:01:551:02:02

scramble a few eggs and you can have

your breakfast on a Sunday. Why not?

1:02:021:02:08

Taming lobsters. What do you drink

with? Lobster is a real treat.

1:02:081:02:13

Traditionally, French champagne has

been the dish of the day but any

1:02:131:02:17

sparkling wine.

Or a light white?

You could have an oak Chardonnay or

1:02:171:02:22

Burgundy would be delicious. I would

go for fizz!

Stephen, you have a

1:02:221:02:29

couple of tweaks?

Yes, the

appropriately named for this show

1:02:291:02:35

Janet garlic once Tono from Olly,

screw-top or Cork wine, is there any

1:02:351:02:39

difference on quality?

Hi, Janet.

Nothing to fear from the screw-top.

1:02:391:02:45

Gone are the days when they were

inferior. The screw-top is very

1:02:451:02:51

convenient, you can put it in the

fridge and it will keep well but

1:02:511:02:57

courts have their place, for fine

wine.

I have an inkling who might

1:02:571:03:03

answer this question. Do you have an

idea for an Italian winter salad?

1:03:031:03:11

Salads really grows in the winter,

lots different salads grow in the

1:03:111:03:16

winter. You have a rid Duccio and an

endive. Escarole... Extra virgin

1:03:161:03:24

olive oil and a squeeze of lemon

inside, salt and pepper.

And you can

1:03:241:03:31

get some fennel and you can pan fry

them and put them on top with some

1:03:311:03:36

lovely blue cheese.

Oh, my salad!

Our next call is Sue from

1:03:361:03:46

Worcestershire. What is your

question?

Good morning. I have a

1:03:461:03:50

hazelnut liqueur and I would like to

mail how to use it?

We have exactly

1:03:501:03:58

the same liqueur. It is incredible.

That his hazelnuts. Make a lovely

1:03:581:04:05

tiramisu. So simple. You need some

finger biscuits, some double

1:04:051:04:10

espresso, some mascarpone cream. You

make the coffee, you put the liqueur

1:04:101:04:16

inside with the coffee and the

sugar, you mix together at biscuits,

1:04:161:04:21

finger biscuits, sponge it, then you

can but some mascarpone on top,

1:04:211:04:30

great to shop over chocolate and

just enjoy it. It is Valentine! You

1:04:301:04:38

really love it.

1:04:381:04:43

really love it.

I was wondering what

was coming next! Thanks to everyone

1:04:431:04:46

who called and treated. This week,

Glyn Pernell is getting the chance

1:04:461:04:51

to prove his theory that Birmingham

is the centre of the culinary

1:04:511:04:55

universe. Let's see if he can

persuade us.

1:04:551:05:02

I've lived in Birmingham most of my

life and I think it is the centre of

1:05:051:05:09

the universe. Used to be the

culinary desert of Britain but now

1:05:091:05:11

is one of the most exciting cities

in Britain. I am going to show you

1:05:111:05:16

exactly why it is the best place to

eat. Markets are the heartbeat of

1:05:161:05:24

any city. This is one of my

favourite places in Birmingham. I've

1:05:241:05:28

been coming here since I was a kid

and I come down here to get food for

1:05:281:05:32

home and the restaurant. Nice to see

you. There is the head.

You have

1:05:321:05:41

head, belly, feet.

Pigs' Trotters

are one of my favourite things. When

1:05:411:05:47

I was a kid we got them as a treat

on a Saturday to drop my mum would

1:05:471:05:52

boil them, I would be in my pyjamas

watching Blind date.

We do about 25

1:05:521:05:59

pigs are weak.

Why would you say it

has become more popular?

The

1:05:591:06:03

diversity of our customers, from all

over the world. Chinese, Vietnamese.

1:06:031:06:09

The only thing we don't sell is the

squeal!

You can't sell the squeal!

1:06:091:06:15

These are one of my favourite little

treats at the market. Cockles, a

1:06:151:06:22

splash of vinegar and eight dash of

white pepper. Brilliant! Takes me

1:06:221:06:27

back to being a little kid coming

round here, a pot of cockles. Can't

1:06:271:06:32

beat it! How are we? Tracy, morning.

I'm here to showcase what fantastic

1:06:321:06:40

fish we've got in the Birmingham

market. Traditionally... Is at the

1:06:401:06:46

West Indians on the Chinese that

Brian?

The Caribbean, you got your

1:06:461:06:51

Chinese. There are 201 different

nations in Birmingham and we are

1:06:511:06:55

trying to get as much from around

the world.

Birmingham has an array

1:06:551:07:00

of fantastic produce but is also

famous for one dish, the balti.

1:07:001:07:06

This may be a bit of a cliche but if

you are in Birmingham you've got to

1:07:191:07:23

have a curry. This was created here

in the early 1960s for the western

1:07:231:07:28

Pallett and there are now hundreds

of balti houses serving 20,000

1:07:281:07:34

people a week. That is a lot of

curry! I don't need these. I am

1:07:341:07:38

going to eat it with these. You may

have yellow stained fingers for a

1:07:381:07:43

week afterwards but it is definitely

worth it. Birmingham isn't just

1:07:431:07:48

about balti is. Over the last 15

years we have seen a fantastic

1:07:481:07:52

change in the restaurant and food

seem to cocktail bars Michelins

1:07:521:07:55

stars and sushi. This is one of my

favourite places where we buy sushi.

1:07:551:08:06

We have been spoilt, boys!

1:08:061:08:13

We have been spoilt, boys! If you

would have told me you would have

1:08:131:08:15

cocktail bars and sushi restaurants

in Birmingham 15 years ago. Of

1:08:151:08:20

cocktail 15 years ago in Birmingham

was a cube of ice and a slice of

1:08:201:08:24

lemon! I told you that Birmingham

was the food capital of the world

1:08:241:08:28

and we have only scratched the

surface of what the city has to

1:08:281:08:36

Thanks for that. If you good tips.

You are performing in Birmingham.

1:08:361:08:40

Yes, a good few tips. There is a

restaurant outside Glasgow called a

1:08:401:08:47

balti Towers.

1:08:471:08:52

... Shrove Tuesday has crept up on

us so we are going to do a pancake

1:08:521:08:57

challenge.

Can our chefs toss their

way to glory. The aim is to flip the

1:08:571:09:01

pancake as many times as you can.

You both have the same batter, oil,

1:09:011:09:09

pounds, a level playing field.

1:09:091:09:15

I am ready for a challenge now I

don't have my scarf!

Are you ready?

1:09:171:09:22

Shall we start making pancakes?

Three, two, one, go. Not quite the

1:09:221:09:28

explosive start!

1:09:281:09:34

explosive start! Both of you need to

make a pancake. As soon as you have

1:09:341:09:37

made a pancake, we will start

flipping.

What is the secret? A warm

1:09:371:09:44

plan to start?

You need a nice

nonstick pan, a hot pan, and good

1:09:441:09:50

batter. Usually the first one messes

up and I throw it away. The tension

1:09:501:09:55

is palpable.

Do they do Shrove

Tuesday in Italy?

We make them like

1:09:551:10:01

a cannelloni, we make them with

better melted rock

Do you have a day

1:10:011:10:07

that celebrates them?

No, we don't.

We make things that only contain

1:10:071:10:15

flour, eggs and a bit of sorts.

There we go. That's cooking.

Are you

1:10:151:10:27

ready, Eleonora?

Yes, it is cooking!

That is an improvisation for you,

1:10:271:10:38

Matt.

1:10:381:10:43

Matt.

We are going to miss Shrove

Tuesday by the time...

Gennaro, you

1:10:431:10:48

are cooking so well!

Go! Flip!

Gennaro, help! Help!

1:10:481:11:01

Gennaro, help! Help! One. Two.

Three. Four.

I think I'm being

1:11:051:11:12

hypnotised by Gennaro's pancake!

1:11:121:11:20

hypnotised by Gennaro's pancake!

You

are a perfect gent, Gennaro.

1:11:201:11:26

Gennaro,

1:11:261:11:26

Gennaro, how many do you think you

got? 33. Four! That is for you,

1:11:261:11:36

fellow. Of all the achievements of

your life, that is going to be up

1:11:361:11:41

there. That is why we do the

omelette talent and nothing else!

1:11:411:11:48

Will Stephen get his food heaven,

venison, or food hell, try? We will

1:11:481:11:54

find out after Nigel Slater shows us

two more hearty simple suppers.

1:11:541:12:07

I'm going to be cooking pork chops

1:12:081:12:10

with apples and cider.

1:12:101:12:11

I'm very fussy about pork chops.

1:12:111:12:12

I like good, thick ones,

with plenty of fat,

1:12:121:12:14

so that as the chop cooks,

that fat makes the meat

1:12:141:12:17

really succulent.

1:12:171:12:18

Pork and apple works

on so many levels, you know.

1:12:181:12:20

It works because of the richness,

and the sharpness of the fruit.

1:12:201:12:23

But it also works on another

level altogether -

1:12:231:12:25

that idea of pigs, in an orchard,

crunching their way through windfall

1:12:251:12:28

apples in the grass.

1:12:281:12:32

And it just brings...

1:12:321:12:37

I don't know, a bit

of poetry to supper.

1:12:371:12:45

I don't think that's a bad thing.

1:12:481:12:49

I don't think we always have

to be quite so practical.

1:12:491:12:52

I like to give the rind a good

headstart to getting a bit crispy,

1:12:521:12:55

by just searing it in the oil.

1:12:551:12:57

Then, lightly fry each side -

about a minute or so should do it.

1:12:571:13:05

I'm going to put a little bit

of cider with these.

1:13:111:13:19

Once lightly browned on the sides,

pull out the chops, then bung

1:13:211:13:24

the onions into the hot pan.

1:13:241:13:25

Whilst they're browning,

chop up some dessert apples.

1:13:251:13:27

I'm using the Discovery

ones from my garden.

1:13:271:13:35

I'm going to carefully

add some sage.

1:13:361:13:38

Use it sparingly,

1:13:381:13:39

because it can overpower the dish.

1:13:391:13:40

Then squash some juniper

berries to add a fresh,

1:13:401:13:43

lemony quality to the dish.

1:13:431:13:50

I'm gonna pop the chops back.

1:13:591:14:01

These are such sweet little apples.

1:14:011:14:02

They're so cute.

1:14:021:14:03

I'm gonna pop a couple

of whole ones in as well.

1:14:031:14:09

Season to taste with salt and pepper

and add a good glass of cider.

1:14:091:14:12

Slide into a hot oven

for about half-an-hour.

1:14:121:14:16

What's great about this dish

is you can either cook it

1:14:161:14:22

quickly on high heat,

or leave it in the oven

1:14:221:14:24

for hours on low.

1:14:241:14:26

What's happened is that

all of the succulence from the meat,

1:14:261:14:29

and all of the juices,

all the flavourings,

1:14:291:14:32

just come together.

1:14:321:14:36

That, for me, is both

supper and a big treat.

1:14:361:14:39

Of course, the perfect drink for thi

dish is a glass of ice-cold cider.

1:14:441:14:52

We all have our favourite combos -

ingredients that work

1:15:021:15:05

perfectly together.

1:15:051:15:08

They're always on our shopping list.

1:15:081:15:11

The danger is that these favourites

can become a bit predictable.

1:15:111:15:14

Which is why I like to bring

something new to these

1:15:141:15:16

existing relationships.

1:15:161:15:18

Some of our favourite culinary

marriages are with the most

1:15:181:15:22

basic of ingredients.

1:15:221:15:27

Potatoes and leeks is one

that works very well.

1:15:271:15:30

So I want to bring them together

as the base of a sumptuous chowder.

1:15:301:15:37

Start by placing the chopped leeks

into a warm pan of butter,

1:15:371:15:43

and adding some thyme.

1:15:431:15:44

I want the leeks to cook very

gently in the butter.

1:15:441:15:47

I don't want them to brown.

1:15:471:15:50

And the best way to do that is to pu

a little bit of paper on top,

1:15:501:15:54

so that they actually steam as much

as they fry.

1:15:541:15:57

And I put the lid on as well,

so that none of the steam can escape

1:15:571:16:02

To give a little body,

add some potatoes.

1:16:021:16:10

Put my potatoes in.

1:16:101:16:12

Into this soup, or stew,

whatever you want to call it,

1:16:121:16:17

I'm going to put some smoked haddock

And I want the haddock to go quite

1:16:171:16:21

a long way, because it's not

the cheapest of fish.

1:16:211:16:24

So I'm going to use sweetcorn.

1:16:241:16:24

And the reason for that is

because the liquid in this soup

1:16:241:16:28

is actually going to be milk.

1:16:281:16:31

And sweetcorn loves dairy produce.

1:16:311:16:38

I've always cooked my

smoked haddock in milk.

1:16:421:16:44

I'm sure there's some very

technical reasons for it.

1:16:441:16:47

But I do it cos my mum did it.

1:16:471:16:53

Milk softens the smokiness

of the haddock.

1:16:551:16:57

It's also wonderful

with the sweetcorn.

1:16:571:17:00

Drop in a few bay leaves

and a sprinkling of peppercorns.

1:17:001:17:04

Your fish should be ready

in under ten minutes.

1:17:041:17:08

This is more than a single

marriage of ingredients.

1:17:081:17:10

It's actually a marriage

of the leeks and potatoes,

1:17:101:17:14

and the milk and the sweetcorn.

1:17:141:17:20

It all comes together.

1:17:201:17:23

Break the haddock into chunks,

drain some of the milk,

1:17:231:17:26

and resettle to the chowder.

1:17:261:17:30

Dishes like this, which are calming,

they've got a quality to them that

1:17:301:17:35

brings a sense of peace

into your supper.

1:17:351:17:40

There's something very gentle

and old-fashioned about these

1:17:401:17:42

flavours and these smells.

1:17:421:17:45

And especially these ingredients.

1:17:451:17:50

Everything in this dish has

a classic connection.

1:17:501:17:53

Leeks to potatoes, milk

to sweetcorn, and fish to some

1:17:531:17:56

freshly chopped parsley.

1:17:561:18:04

There are some recipes

I like to put on a plate,

1:18:051:18:09

and pop them in front of everybody.

1:18:091:18:12

And there's other recipes that

I like to put in the middle

1:18:121:18:15

of the table, with a big ladle,

and get people to help themselves.

1:18:151:18:20

And this is one of those.

1:18:201:18:24

It's bowl food.

1:18:241:18:26

As well as soul food.

1:18:261:18:32

It has to be the bond

between so many of the ingredients

1:18:391:18:42

in this supper that makes

it absolutely mouth-watering.

1:18:421:18:49

Thanks for that, Nigel. Time to find

out what Steve is going to get, Food

1:18:531:18:57

Heaven or food health. This is what

I'd deal of Heaven. Venison, all the

1:18:571:19:03

nice stuff. Your idea of how, tripe,

coriander. So nice.

What is that?

I

1:19:031:19:17

suspect there's a lot of tripe

eaters out there. Right, what do you

1:19:171:19:20

think they went for?

I'm hoping they

went for the venison.

65% of the

1:19:201:19:28

people... Went for venison.

APPLAUSE

1:19:281:19:32

We won't need to look at the tripe

again.

1:19:321:19:36

I will eat this tripe. I love it.

1:19:361:19:39

OK, Gennaro, sort out some wild

mushrooms, venison tartare as well.

1:19:441:19:53

Eleonora, dice up the Apple and

shall not. That is not for you,

1:19:531:19:56

Gennaro. -- shallot. I've got some

roasted bones. That's right, throw

1:19:561:20:08

that in there. Garlic. Juniper

berry. Just to give it a back taste.

1:20:081:20:16

Then some chicken stock over the

top. Summer it for about one hour.

1:20:161:20:21

It reduces. -- simmer it.

Do you do

a lot of cooking?

Not a great deal.

1:20:211:20:32

What sort of thing do you need on

the road?

Fortunately, the show

1:20:321:20:38

comes down about 9pm so there's

still time to go out and eat, so we

1:20:381:20:42

would get the local guidebooks out

and any recommendations would be

1:20:421:20:45

very gratefully received.

Right, I'm

going to make, flour, egg, and this

1:20:451:20:53

is dried cep. Put it in a coffee

grinder, and put in a little crust

1:20:531:20:59

on this venison.

Is it a relatively

cheap meat, venison?

Generally not.

1:20:591:21:10

Some people say it is dead deer!

Think about it!

1:21:101:21:18

LAUGHTER

Right, OK, let's have some

1:21:181:21:24

seasoning, actually. Flour, egg.

Finally, the cep crumbs, put it in a

1:21:241:21:34

pan and stick it in the oven for

about six minutes or so. You want it

1:21:341:21:38

nice and rare.

And the cep will form

the crust?

Yes, exactly.

1:21:381:21:49

the crust?

Yes, exactly. Now, going

from deer to Drop The Dead Donkey. I

1:21:501:21:53

enjoyed watching that. You won the

comedy award for that.

I did,

1:21:531:21:57

indeed.

Was it of its time or ahead

of its time?

I think ahead of its

1:21:571:22:04

time. The only other thing on there

that was as close to it was spitting

1:22:041:22:09

image. We were absolutely dependent

on what was happening in the news.

1:22:091:22:16

It was risky because a quarter of

the show was given to you in front

1:22:161:22:21

of a live audience.

We would record

it on a Wednesday night with a live

1:22:211:22:26

audience. Two of us would go in on

the Thursday to do Thursday's news

1:22:261:22:31

over the end credits. The latest

they got it to the channel before it

1:22:311:22:36

went on air was 40 minutes. A huge

amount of pressure. It was Andy

1:22:361:22:42

Hamilton and Guy Jenkins coping well

with it. They would leave gaps for

1:22:421:22:47

the topical humour and frame it

around whichever characters were on

1:22:471:22:50

screen at the time, so they shaped

it to those characters and I have no

1:22:501:22:54

idea how they did it.

I would say

it's ripe for bringing it back.

1:22:541:23:01

Especially in these times as well.

Yes, it's calling out for it.

You

1:23:011:23:08

could come back as gas. I loved him.

He was a great character.

You've

1:23:081:23:14

done so me different things,

voice-overs, radio, TV, all the

1:23:141:23:19

roles he played, is there one

particular one that makes you more

1:23:191:23:22

nervous than the other? What's the

most nervous you've been a

1:23:221:23:26

performance?

I'm doing a charity

show next Sunday in Newcastle, at

1:23:261:23:32

the Metro Arena, two shows in front

of two batches of 11,000 people.

1:23:321:23:40

That could be nerve-racking. Yeah. I

think the live radio play I did last

1:23:401:23:48

year for Valentine's Day, just

knowing that one slip-up was going

1:23:481:23:53

to be heard, that was terribly

nerve-racking.

I was going to talk

1:23:531:24:04

about Wild At Heart, but you crashed

a balloon in Australia?

Yes, we hit

1:24:041:24:08

the ground at 35 mph and got dragged

through a field full of rocks. Yes,

1:24:081:24:15

I broke two teeth. The cameraman

injured his back. That we are still

1:24:151:24:19

here.

All in the name of television.

The producers were thrilled! They

1:24:191:24:26

didn't show it. They hired a

helicopter that day to follow us, so

1:24:261:24:33

we went when we shouldn't have,

really, but they got some fantastic

1:24:331:24:37

footage.

They were very happy.

That's the main thing. Which teeth?

1:24:371:24:45

Two at the back.

This is venison

tartare. Dijon mustard, shallot,

1:24:451:24:55

capers.

1:24:551:25:00

capers. Sauteed mushrooms. Here we

have got the stock.

Stephen, you do

1:25:011:25:04

the voice-over where you are the

character of Bob the builder?

I was

1:25:041:25:09

his twin brother. Tom, the

zoologist, which does not scan as

1:25:091:25:15

well. I haven't got a single out of

it. It was a Christmas special. The

1:25:151:25:22

best Christmas ever, it was called.

I got to sing crocodile Rock with

1:25:221:25:29

noddy Holder. So that was a treat.

And also Pingu.

I was head right on

1:25:291:25:41

many theories and I have much

affection for the Penguin.

Great

1:25:411:25:46

dialogue.

It was all emotive and it

was good fun.

But you could tell

1:25:461:25:51

what they said.

Next week we have

got Stephen Mangan as a guest and

1:25:511:25:58

you have been working with him

recently.

Yes, six part show for the

1:25:581:26:03

BBC called The Split dealing with a

family of divorce lawyers, one of

1:26:031:26:10

whom moved to another company, hence

the split. It's a self-contained

1:26:101:26:16

story every week, written by Abby

Morgan, and there is a big divorce

1:26:161:26:20

which goes through all six episodes

between myself and Meera sial.

Happy

1:26:201:26:27

show?

Yes, people will be very

interested, I'm sure. I think it on

1:26:271:26:34

in April. The BBC.

There is the wild

mushroom tartare. Venison broth, and

1:26:341:26:43

after about five minutes or so,...

Let's carve that.... Bring the

1:26:431:26:50

venison out. Let it restful stop

take off a couple of chops.

Stephen,

1:26:501:26:57

preparing for a role, how long in

advance does it take for you to nail

1:26:571:27:01

the character?

If you are doing a

theatre show, it depends, it grows

1:27:011:27:08

in the rehearsal. And then more so

when the audience take on as well

1:27:081:27:13

because they are the missing

character for the few weeks you are

1:27:131:27:16

working away, so it's an interesting

thing when we start next week in

1:27:161:27:19

Cambridge.

Stephen, do you want to

try it?

Yes, thank you.

What are we

1:27:191:27:31

drinking, Olly?

Venison is a hearty

meat and they can cope with a big

1:27:311:27:34

flavoured wine so this is on offer

in Waitrose, this is Reserve Shiraz

1:27:341:27:41

St Hallett, £8 99, one of those

hearty winter warmers, and it's

1:27:411:27:46

superb. It has not been that

fashionable to have a big hearty

1:27:461:27:50

Australian Shiraz and I think some

of them are so brilliant. This

1:27:501:27:54

family have been doing it since the

1940s.

What are you doing with the

1:27:541:27:59

glasses? It is the anticipation of

what is happening. After a frenetic

1:27:591:28:06

show, it's quite a calm thing.

Yes.

I don't know why I'm putting the lid

1:28:061:28:12

on.

It's absolutely beautiful.

Good.

With the cold tartare. Beautiful.

1:28:121:28:20

Plenty of sunshine.

1:28:201:28:26

Plenty of sunshine.

Herding cuts. It

is so good. Delicious full stop good

1:28:261:28:32

luck with the tour. That all from us

from Saturday Kitchen Live. Thanks

1:28:321:28:39

to our studio guests. All the

recipes from the show are on the

1:28:391:28:42

website bbc.co.uk/saturdaykitchen.

1:28:471:28:52
