It's time for 90 minutes of sizzling hot sensational food! | :00:00. | :00:34. | |
I'm Matt Tebbutt and this is Saturday Kitchen Live. | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
We've got some absolutely outstanding dishes | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
Making her debut on the show, Tonia Buxton is creating a fantastic | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
Greek feast and Fernando Stovell is dishing up his take | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
on contemporary European cuisine with a Mexican twist. | :00:46. | :00:47. | |
Your first time here, are you nervous? A little. | :00:48. | :00:59. | |
What are you making for us? It is lamb kofta with spicy tahini dip. | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
Nice. Is that party food? Finger food? You can make it into finger | :01:04. | :01:15. | |
food or burgers. It is versatile. And Fernando? I am making | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
char-grilled, grain fed Lake District beef fillet, brassicas, | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
truffle marsh and ox tail jus. Is it a Mexican take? No, it is 100% | :01:21. | :01:30. | |
British. That looks very British? I am half British half Mexican. | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
So looking forward to celebrating both. | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
And we've got some brilliant clips from some of the BBC's biggest | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
food stars: Rick Stein, Nigel Slater, The Hairy | :01:42. | :01:43. | |
Our special guest today is an actress, award winning | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
She's currently starring in the hit BBC series Silent Witness, please | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
welcome the hugely talented Liz Carr! | :01:51. | :01:51. | |
Liz, good to have you here! Liz, hugely talented! Nice to have you | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
here. Good to be here. | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
Now, we are talking about all things Silent Witness. You have been there | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
a long time? Five years. But, importantly, you are going to face | :02:07. | :02:13. | |
your food heaven and food hell? Yes. What is your food heaven? It is the | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
crab. I become a different person when eating it. It is like a craft | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
and activity. I like doing something! But always a bit risky | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
but I Reich that. Also an excuse to have hot butter. I like that, pretty | :02:28. | :02:34. | |
much any seafood, apart from oysters. | :02:35. | :02:36. | |
My hell is keen war. Why? I mean the word for a start is | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
enough. It is already up itself! So it already knows, it's an arrogant | :02:44. | :02:50. | |
food. -- Quinoa. I didn't like it for that | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
reason. Plus, it is healthy. I don't like superfoods or raw foods. I like | :02:59. | :03:06. | |
foods, I know I possibly don't look it! But let's get it out there, I do | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
love a good meal but I can't put weight on. | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
Some people think that is a blessing. | :03:15. | :03:25. | |
So, for your food heaven I am making crab claws. | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
For your food heaven I am going to make deep fried crab claws | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
I'll mix prawns, ginger and garlic together and then wrap this mix | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
around the crab claws and deep fry, and serve with ravioli filled | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
with crab meat and Nduja paste in a crab stock with coriander. | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
Nduja piece is a spicy sausage. You like that? Sounds great. | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
But if you get hell, then it will be quinoa. | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
A 'healthy eating' dish of quinoa, raw kale, chickpeas, | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
which I'll dress with a peri-peri sauce and serve with slices | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
of chargrilled pork shoulder and scatter over fresh nuts, | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
But you'll have to wait until the end of the show to find | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
If you'd like the chance to ask any of us a question today then call: | :04:06. | :04:16. | |
If I get to speak to you, I'll also ask you if Liz should | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
face her food heaven or her food hell. | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
You can also get in touch with social media using | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
What can we do? I will get you to do shopping. | :04:25. | :04:50. | |
Can you chop the herbs for me. Sure I am making a simple kofta | :04:51. | :04:57. | |
recipe. You can use any meat but lamb is very Greek. To that I am | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
adding a sweet potato. Is this a traditional recipe? It is | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
quite traditional. But the way I look at thing, you have to keep | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
traditional but use the ingredients that you have in the country you are | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
in. So maybe in Greece we don't use sweet potato so much as we can't get | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
it there but I like sweet potato, so I decided to Serb it up a little | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
bit! Great. I do like coriander. | :05:32. | :05:39. | |
So this is very Hershey? You want lots of herbs, and spice and | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
flavour. If you imagine in Greece, the taste of the herbs, it is | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
amazing. They are grown in sun light, unlike the herbs you grow on | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
your window sill here. They do taste well but not the same. | :05:59. | :06:09. | |
Are you in Greece a lot? Yes. I cook at a real The Real Greek restaurant. | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
We have been sourcing produce from small producers. So we have been | :06:16. | :06:23. | |
using wines from Greece, from Santorini, looking at herb producers | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
and bean producers. It is a very exciting time. Go think Greek food | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
is well represented in London? Or getting there? It's getting there. | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
It's getting there. I'm using a garlic marsher. Don't look! Is that | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
a favourite of yours? It is because it is fast. When you are cooking at | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
home, I'm a mum, I cook for four, this is easier than chopping. Not | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
that I have anything against the way you do it but I prefer my moment. | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
That is fine. It is your moment. Instead of using meat can you use | :06:58. | :07:05. | |
fish? You can, tuna, white fish, which I sometimes steam off. | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
You can do it all very quickly and throw whatever you want in. | :07:11. | :07:19. | |
Sometimes if I have left over broccoli, I even add that in. | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
Greek yoghurt? Seriously, now, is there another type of yoghurt that | :07:26. | :07:35. | |
is worthy apart from Greek yoghurt?! It is high in nutrients, it is the | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
best flavour in the world. Is that your stance on Greek food? | :07:41. | :07:46. | |
The thing is that the Greeks have been here since 1600 BC, and | :07:47. | :07:53. | |
anything you do, it is all Greek, even from the Italians, it has all | :07:54. | :08:00. | |
been copied from the Greeks. I could have an argument with that? | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
I have fantastic arguments with the Italians. | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
The Italians are very good at that. During the classical Greek empire, | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
the Romans came after, they stole our recipes and ideas, that is where | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
a lot of their cocking comes from. You see yourself as the dad on My | :08:21. | :08:27. | |
Big Greek Wedding. You are the dad, Gus. Do you | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
remember the line? Don't worry, I cook lamb! I have a story about | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
that. My brother brought a friend back. She insisted that she feed | :08:40. | :08:52. | |
him. I said, did you like the ribs, that he had there but he had been | :08:53. | :09:00. | |
vegan for five years. Right, I need favour, I need you to | :09:01. | :09:09. | |
make these up while I make the Tahini. | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
And you also rot a book that claimed that Greek food was good for your | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
sex life? I knew that would come up! I wrote a book all about healthy | :09:21. | :09:28. | |
eating and how to improve your lives through eating healthy. One of the | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
chapters, was to eat Greek for a week to improve your libido! And it | :09:35. | :09:44. | |
can! So, what went into this? We have sweet potato, parsley, | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
coriander, mint, dried cumin and fresh coriander and cumin, salt, | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
purpose and pork and no, lamb! Lamb! My goodness! So, in here I am making | :09:57. | :10:11. | |
a Tahini sauce. We have three tablespoons of Tahini, a pinch of | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
salt and garlic and lemon juice. I almost also adding Greek yoghurt and | :10:16. | :10:21. | |
chilli to pimp it up a bit. Greek food in Britain now has such a | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
good name, don't you think? Yes. Every single one of the chefs in | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
every single restaurant has a Greek style of something. So I think we | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
have done a good job of getting Greek food out there. | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
It is becoming more widespread? Yes, and appreciated. Before you would | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
think of a greasy kebab with garlic sauce and chips on top but actually | :10:46. | :10:52. | |
Greek food has a lot of vegan and vegetarian recipes. We are working | :10:53. | :11:00. | |
on lots of vegetarian recipes, at The Real Greek, because of the Greek | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
fast that is coming up. You told me of this earlier, I | :11:05. | :11:11. | |
thought Greek was a meat-based diet? It is now that they are wealthier, | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
in my mother's day, they could not afford it, it would be a very | :11:18. | :11:19. | |
vegetarian style cooking. If you'd like the chance to ask any | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
of us a question today then call: Calls are charged at your | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
standard network rate. There are lots of people on social | :11:29. | :11:38. | |
media are saying that pronunciationst of kofta is pretty | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
terrible. Well, to see it in the Greek way it | :11:42. | :11:57. | |
is said... And apparently Nduge is wrong as well. | :11:58. | :12:05. | |
How do you say it? Nd you cans uge... I don't know, I'm from Wales! | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
Now, I just need to taste this before I serve it. | :12:12. | :12:18. | |
OK, did you put chilli in the Tahini as well? Yes, sir, I'm putting | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
chilli in. How long are these in for, Tonia? 20 | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
minutes in a hot oven. That should do them. Depending on the size. If | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
they are burger size a little more, if they are smaller a little bit | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
less. Shall I start to plate them up? | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
Could you, I will add some more lemon juice to my Tahini sauce. | :12:45. | :12:51. | |
These are so simple, versatile but what makes them is the Tahini sauce. | :12:52. | :12:59. | |
I like the idea of calamari. Calamari, you can use the egg to | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
bind it. I want to go back to the pronounce | :13:03. | :13:14. | |
air strikes Fernando... Calamari! Yes, with the hands! I am my | :13:15. | :13:27. | |
mother's daughter, what can I say! -- pronounciation We have done this | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
in fancy way with the lettuce but you can put them in a wrap or a | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
burger. Whatever you fancy. | :13:39. | :13:48. | |
Right, beautiful. Remind us of what this is? In your best Greek... Lamb | :13:49. | :13:55. | |
kofta with spicy tahini dip! Very nice, very nice! Right, let's see | :13:56. | :14:02. | |
what Liz thinks. Right, here we are, Liz. | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
After telling me before going on air, you were not massively keen on | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
meat. But, lamb is my Sunday lunch. | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
Oh, is it? Yes, I do love it. Knife and fork or fingers? I think | :14:20. | :14:26. | |
if you are doing it the Greek way, it would be with the fingers. Well, | :14:27. | :14:33. | |
I will do it the Greek way. This is what the Mexicans copied the | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
Greeks to make! Everything stems from the Greek! Susie Barrie is | :14:39. | :14:47. | |
picking up the wine this week, she's in Hayesle mere. | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
She's in Haslemere, but before she made her choice she visited | :14:53. | :14:54. | |
Today I'm at the incredible sculpture Park in the rolling Surrey | :14:55. | :15:05. | |
Hills. Before I choose this week's winds and going to get my culture | :15:06. | :15:10. | |
fix and check out some of the 600 sculptures on display. | :15:11. | :15:28. | |
In the depths of January, what could be better than a taste of summer, | :15:29. | :15:34. | |
which is exactly what Tania has dished up for us with her delicious | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
lamb kofta. And if we are talking summer, one option surely has to be | :15:41. | :15:47. | |
a glass of rose, something like this Peter O'Dwyer which works | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
brilliantly with lime. But there's much more to this day stand just | :15:51. | :15:57. | |
lamb. With the tangy dip and the crunchy lettuce and not to mention | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
the lovely fresh herbs, we are actually in white wine territory. | :16:03. | :16:10. | |
And so I've chosen the thoroughly Mediterranean 2015 Atlantis | :16:11. | :16:13. | |
Santorini. A little-known secret that the beautiful Greek island of | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
Santorini produces stunning white wines, largely based on the local | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
grape variety. These are world-class white wines. Ooh, that's a wonderful | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
combination of white peach fruit with lemon zest and then heady wild | :16:28. | :16:34. | |
herbs. It really is summer in a glass. There's plenty of sun ripened | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
fruit here to balance the savoury lamb and the spicy dip. But it's | :16:40. | :16:46. | |
also fresh and dry and pithy enough to cut through the rich elements of | :16:47. | :16:53. | |
the recipe. And finally a salty, sea breeze tang, very typical of this | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
grape variety. If you close your mind for a moment it almost | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
transports you to that island in the sun. Thank you, Tonya, for bringing | :17:01. | :17:07. | |
a flavour of Simon Marcil to this chilly January morning, and for | :17:08. | :17:09. | |
giving me an excuse to do exactly the same. STUDIO: How are you liking | :17:10. | :17:16. | |
that? I really liked this wine and I love the fact she got a great | :17:17. | :17:23. | |
variety indigenous to Greece. And Santorini is renowned for its wine. | :17:24. | :17:29. | |
In order to grow vines, it is so harsh, they have to grow them in a | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
basket so the grapes grow inside and the vines are outside and the leaves | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
are on top protecting from the winds and harsh conditions. Really? Can | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
you get hold of Greek wine quite easily? It's difficult, but we are | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
starting to bring more and more over and that's one of the things I'm | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
interested in doing, supporting local suppliers. You can get it in | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
some of the larger supermarkets. Have you tried that? I have. How is | :17:55. | :18:02. | |
it? It's nice. I'm not really a big wine drinker. You're not really a | :18:03. | :18:11. | |
big wine drinker? Yeah, the red meat thing, now the wine. All wine tastes | :18:12. | :18:20. | |
a bit the same to me. Sacrilege! Cuts the acidity and the fact must, | :18:21. | :18:27. | |
delicious. Impressed with that. What are you doing later? My take on beef | :18:28. | :18:36. | |
Wellington. How are you with pastry? The pastry sounds great! I'm joking. | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
And there's still time for you to ask us a question. | :18:42. | :18:48. | |
We're going to need your calls by 11am, please. | :18:49. | :19:00. | |
Time now to join Rick Stein, on his trip around the Far East. | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
He's in Cambodia visiting a coconut farm to before whipping up | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
Marco Polo said he preferred coconut milk to wine. I wouldn't go as far | :19:07. | :19:16. | |
as that but I recall a saying from the South Pacific, a man who plans | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
coconut plants food and treat, vessels and clothing, home for his | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
family and heritage for his children. Coconut is also the | :19:28. | :19:34. | |
foundation of this lovely dish made predominantly with pork and | :19:35. | :19:40. | |
pineapple. First I chopped some shots. This is fresh turmeric and I | :19:41. | :19:48. | |
must say it's a bit of a revelation to me. I'm just used to using the | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
powdered stuff, but it's so wonderfully fragrant. And it's the | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
main constituent of the Cambodian curry paste, the other being lemon | :19:56. | :20:01. | |
grass. One of the things I've really learnt about my journey through the | :20:02. | :20:04. | |
far east is that these pastes are so important. You've got various | :20:05. | :20:14. | |
different pastes in Cambodia, Thailand, red curry paste, green | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
curry paste, in Indonesia you've got the basic curry paste the use | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
everywhere, and in Malaysia, they are all different. The trouble with | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
turmeric of course is that you walk around for days with yellow fingers, | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
it looks like you are a chain smoker. So all this lemongrass, lime | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
zest, can feel lime leaves, turmeric, all go into my trusty food | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
processor along with a drop of water, some salt and of course the | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
all-important shrimp paste. In Cambodia they use a mortar and | :20:51. | :20:53. | |
pestle but that would take a long time to pound down into a paste. And | :20:54. | :20:59. | |
this, after all we are in the West, is the quick way of going about | :21:00. | :21:06. | |
things. Oh well, plainly taking your time is the best thing, and cooking | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
should never be rushed. I have to admit I made a bit of a mistake, | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
apart from burning out my grinder, and also cut the lemongrass too | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
long, and it's really woody. The reason I did that is because in | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
Cambodia they use the whole thing but it's not as dry, I think. But we | :21:23. | :21:29. | |
all live and learn, even me. Now I great the fresh coconut which is so | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
important to this dish. You get a lovely subtle background flavour and | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
it sickens me sauce. I fry off the pork which is very lean. People | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
don't like the idea of pork stew but when you come to pork curry, | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
anything with lots of spice in it, it's a whole different manner. They | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
use pork a lot in south-east Asia. I think the point is, because there is | :21:55. | :22:01. | |
so much aromatic flavour going with it, it works a treat. Also anything | :22:02. | :22:08. | |
sharp works really well with pork. The fact we've got pineapple in this | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
makes it very satisfying. And I'm using grated coconut to thicken the | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
curry at the end. The secret to all this cooking in this part of the | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
world is the curry paste. It transfers any cut of meat or fish | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
into something exotic. I must say I'm very happy about this because I | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
was a bit worried about that lemongrass, it hadn't sort of been | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
pulverised enough with the mortar and pestle, but I think it looks | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
quite rugged. There I say it it looks a bit bloke-y. I don't like | :22:42. | :22:48. | |
things too neat and tidy. After one hour the pork should be nice and | :22:49. | :22:51. | |
tender. Looks extremely nice and it's smelling wonderful. Now I'm | :22:52. | :22:58. | |
going to add the grated coconut. You don't need a lot of it but as I said | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
earlier you can see how it binds the dish together and it tastes so good. | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
These are tiny aubergines, but they are still quite unusual in the UK. I | :23:09. | :23:13. | |
have to say I got these in Saint Austell, of all places. Things are | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
changing. The little tiny ones, you might have seen them, they are | :23:21. | :23:23. | |
called pea aubergines, partly because they are so small, and they | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
are a little firmer than normal. I'm going to put them in the curry and | :23:29. | :23:31. | |
they'll be done in about ten minutes. These little aubergines are | :23:32. | :23:35. | |
really nutty and they stay firm in contrast to the pineapple which | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
softens and gives so much sweetness to the dish. I suppose you could use | :23:39. | :23:44. | |
pins but they are so easy to buy fresh and they make the kitchen | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
smell so good. And now coconut milk. People often ask me what the | :23:50. | :23:54. | |
difference in Cambodian food, what makes it so special? I think this | :23:55. | :23:58. | |
dish says it all. It's incredibly fragrant, it's really rich, with the | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
yellow turmeric colour it's lovely. And actually it's not particularly | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
hot, and that is a typical characteristic of Cambodian food. | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
They always serve lots of Chile of course, but the dishes themselves | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
are not searingly hot. At its very fragrant, and if you compare this | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
with something like a sort of curry from northern India, this is sort of | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
light and floury. And the other ingredients, the coconut, those | :24:27. | :24:28. | |
little aubergines, and the pineapple. And I'm going to finish | :24:29. | :24:34. | |
off with some tamarind, fish sauce and palm sugar, everything that | :24:35. | :24:42. | |
actually grows in Cambodia. Take a little bit more. It's very | :24:43. | :24:48. | |
concentrated, fish sauce. I don't need to put much in, probably about | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
another teaspoon. And now for some palm sugar. You always get that | :24:52. | :24:57. | |
combination of sweet and sour in both Thai, Vietnamese and Cambodian | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
cooking. Teaspoon, maybe a bit more, I'm just guessing. The tamarind has | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
an acid flavour which adds so much fresh tartness to the dish. I'm | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
using BCF to pulp without the seeds. It's such an important part of the | :25:14. | :25:24. | |
cooking -- I'm using the sieived pulp without the seeds. It's a | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
combination of the fish sauce, tamarind and sugar, it's easy. | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
That's what's so nice about south-east Asian food, it is so | :25:36. | :25:39. | |
easily put together. Get the basil in and we are done. All that's left | :25:40. | :25:47. | |
now is to allow these fresh leaves to wilt into the dish. There's an | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
old saying that you should always tear basil and never cut it. I think | :25:52. | :25:56. | |
it's because steel blackens the cut edges. I'm using holy basil here, | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
with its incense like smell, many people consider it to have religious | :26:03. | :26:06. | |
significance. Finally, because it's a mildly spiced and fruity curry, I | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
had a few little red jewels of finely chopped chilli. And that's | :26:11. | :26:12. | |
it. He's back next week with more foodie | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
stories from the far east! Rick cooked a very traditional | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
coconut and pineapple curry and I'm now going to use coconut | :26:23. | :26:24. | |
and pineapple in a very I'm going to make coconut tart. I | :26:25. | :26:35. | |
resurrected this from a dish I used to make a long time ago, from the | :26:36. | :26:42. | |
90s, from the sugar club, and I've forgotten his name, it's gone | :26:43. | :26:44. | |
completely out of my head but I'll come back to you in a minute. That's | :26:45. | :26:50. | |
terrible. Recapture. I'm going to make coconut tart and a little | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
caramel with some pineapple and some chilli, star anise and vanilla. | :26:55. | :26:59. | |
Peter Gordon, there you go. That's live for you. Let's make this | :27:00. | :27:08. | |
caramel. Now, Liz, tell me about Silent Witness. I've been in it for | :27:09. | :27:16. | |
five years, the character is good at forensics, quite sarcastic, as you | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
might gather. Very cutting. It's not a massive acting leap. It's not a | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
big stretch? It's not, to be fair. I'm kind of gauging that. She made | :27:27. | :27:33. | |
perfect sense to me. I find her a little bit terrifying? Are you | :27:34. | :27:38. | |
finding the terrifying? No, no. You seem slightly on edge. This is not | :27:39. | :27:49. | |
that easy! I've noticed. Although I make it look easy, yes, thank you, I | :27:50. | :27:53. | |
think that's what you meant. But she really knows her stuff and she takes | :27:54. | :27:57. | |
apart all the rest of the characters? She does. How do you | :27:58. | :28:02. | |
swot up on that? You just learn the script, really. And if you really | :28:03. | :28:09. | |
need to know how something works, you do your work, you do your | :28:10. | :28:11. | |
investigation, get your own forensics and do it. You have a lot | :28:12. | :28:18. | |
of experts? We do, everything is checked and verified as much as | :28:19. | :28:22. | |
possible. But it is not a documentary, sometimes there is | :28:23. | :28:26. | |
artistic license. You'll notice we don't always wear the latex gloves, | :28:27. | :28:30. | |
we rarely wear the white coats, and that is for the camera's point of | :28:31. | :28:35. | |
view, it looks more interesting. But in terms of doing the forensics it | :28:36. | :28:40. | |
is all real and research and we have them on set advising us at all | :28:41. | :28:45. | |
times. I spoke to my wife last night, very interesting that there | :28:46. | :28:47. | |
has been a huge rise in the number of young girls and women studying | :28:48. | :28:52. | |
forensics and pathology because of these role models they see on TV? | :28:53. | :28:58. | |
Apparently Silent Witness is the longest-running crime drama anywhere | :28:59. | :29:01. | |
in the world, 20th anniversary this year. In that time these programmes | :29:02. | :29:12. | |
like CSI, we are fascinated by forensics. Yes. I can understand | :29:13. | :29:17. | |
that, I think it's brilliant getting more women into science, into | :29:18. | :29:20. | |
universities, absolutely. Got to be a good thing. What can you tell us | :29:21. | :29:25. | |
about the next storyline? I'm so excited. What is always said on the | :29:26. | :29:30. | |
Silent Witness website is, very little is known about Clarissa's | :29:31. | :29:33. | |
past life, and I think that's because they did not know what to | :29:34. | :29:38. | |
say, think they were just being a bit lazy. I just thought they had no | :29:39. | :29:42. | |
imagination, I'll be quite honest, and they weren't very creative. | :29:43. | :29:46. | |
Let's hope they're not watching! I think they are. After five years, | :29:47. | :29:54. | |
come on, she does have a life. So I sort of pushed a bit. So in Monday | :29:55. | :30:00. | |
and Tuesday's episodes we get to meet Clarissa's long-term husband, | :30:01. | :30:05. | |
Max. And will he play a big part going forward? He is, actually. And | :30:06. | :30:12. | |
what's great, through somebody else, we see her different meat, because | :30:13. | :30:15. | |
you are always different with a partner. A softer side? I think you | :30:16. | :30:25. | |
do. A more fun side. She is sarcastic but he makes her laugh in | :30:26. | :30:29. | |
a way the others do, and I think you see a more vulnerable side we have | :30:30. | :30:31. | |
not seen before and that's important. But he comes in as part | :30:32. | :30:34. | |
of a case. Are you all right, there? OK! Normally, they say I'm the fire | :30:35. | :30:54. | |
hazard! Nervous laughter! That will be on the front of the Mail now! | :30:55. | :30:58. | |
Relax, it's fine. OK. Recap. In here is sugar, lemon | :30:59. | :31:06. | |
zest, lemon juice, grated coconut. In here is sugar, a bit of Chinay, a | :31:07. | :31:11. | |
star anise, and vanilla. Beautiful. Looking forward to it. | :31:12. | :31:17. | |
Good. I'm glad you're paying attention. | :31:18. | :31:22. | |
Forensic detail in everything I do! Now, tell bus this, when I read | :31:23. | :31:27. | |
about it, I did chuckle but it is quite dark. Your musical? I have | :31:28. | :31:36. | |
rained am performing in a musical, assisted suicide. It sounds a riot! | :31:37. | :31:41. | |
It is. The most controversial part is probably the title but I have the | :31:42. | :31:47. | |
view whereby I'm opposed to assisted suicide, I have decided I'm a | :31:48. | :31:53. | |
campaigner but Lts I'm a performer and a committeeda, could I combine | :31:54. | :32:00. | |
them? We were at the Royal Albert Hall, oh, my goodness, it went a | :32:01. | :32:04. | |
little wrong technically. Then I was on stage, trying to make it work but | :32:05. | :32:09. | |
we got a standing ovation. It was amazing. | :32:10. | :32:12. | |
Do you prefer the stage stuff to the TV stuff? There is something amazing | :32:13. | :32:20. | |
about getting that immediate feedback. And if you are an extrow | :32:21. | :32:28. | |
verity, it is incredible. If you can make a connection with an audience, | :32:29. | :32:32. | |
either on TV, or live, that is what you aim to do, to impact on people. | :32:33. | :32:39. | |
Are you all right? There is a little bit of stuff on there. Quite a lot | :32:40. | :32:49. | |
down there on your shoes! Have you always enjoyed come Eddy, or did | :32:50. | :32:53. | |
that come from a place where you have to laugh through adversity? I | :32:54. | :32:57. | |
think it's a bit of everything. My mum and dad are very funny. They are | :32:58. | :33:07. | |
a bit Morecambe and Wise. But then my mum is quiet and mild-mannered | :33:08. | :33:12. | |
but comes out with killer lines. So I grew up, I think, with a lot of | :33:13. | :33:17. | |
come Eddy. But you are right, putting people at ease. People are | :33:18. | :33:21. | |
scared around disability. They are not quite sure. There is a lot of | :33:22. | :33:26. | |
ignorance, because we don't see it quite so much or come into contact | :33:27. | :33:32. | |
with it but for me, if you have a joke or whatever, it really does put | :33:33. | :33:39. | |
people at ease. It breaks down barriers? It really | :33:40. | :33:43. | |
does. Just a slice for me. It looks gorgeous. | :33:44. | :33:49. | |
Right, this went in, I shall stop waving this knife around! It's like | :33:50. | :33:54. | |
an episode... But I think we know who did it! Bake in in the oven for | :33:55. | :34:01. | |
40 minutes. Bring it out, let it cool. | :34:02. | :34:09. | |
In here is the sauce, the chilli, star anise, vanilla, the aniseed | :34:10. | :34:17. | |
taste, and that's it, right, let's see if you like it. | :34:18. | :34:23. | |
You are funny, you are nervous! Well, I have a sense you are going | :34:24. | :34:28. | |
to be brutally honest, which is never a great thing on live telly! | :34:29. | :34:34. | |
We are just going to go for this. This is really hot. I'm not going to | :34:35. | :34:38. | |
use this one. This is the stuff, it really is. | :34:39. | :34:43. | |
I don't want to scare you but I'm going to stand up. It's not a | :34:44. | :34:48. | |
miracle! She's cured! I'm good but I'm not that good! Oh, my God, she's | :34:49. | :34:56. | |
cured. It's the power of food. Or the power of you, you touched me and | :34:57. | :34:59. | |
I stood. I stood up! Right, OK. It's what I | :35:00. | :35:04. | |
do. There we go. Right, try that. | :35:05. | :35:13. | |
Can I get a drink! Anyone got any more rum?! I really like it. | :35:14. | :35:22. | |
Is it properly nice? I promise you. It is full of sugar and caramel it | :35:23. | :35:30. | |
is breakfast pudding. I'm eating breakfast pudding and drinking wine. | :35:31. | :35:35. | |
I am really happy. Everybody is loving you this morning | :35:36. | :35:38. | |
on social media. Are they? It is quite nice, as | :35:39. | :35:42. | |
everyone thinks I'm Clarissa! It is quite nice, as everyone | :35:43. | :35:47. | |
thinks I'm Clarissa! So what will I be making for Liz | :35:48. | :35:49. | |
at the end of the show? For your food heaven I am | :35:50. | :35:52. | |
going to make deep fried crab claws I'll mix prawns, ginger and garlic | :35:53. | :35:55. | |
together and then wrap this mix around the crab claws and deep fry, | :35:56. | :35:58. | |
and serve with ravioli filled with crab meat and Nduja paste | :35:59. | :36:01. | |
in a crab stock with coriander. But if you get hell, | :36:02. | :36:04. | |
then it will be quinoa. A 'healthy eating' dish of quinoa, | :36:05. | :36:06. | |
raw kale, chickpeas, which I'll dress with a peri peri | :36:07. | :36:10. | |
sauce and serve with slices of chargrilled pork shoulder | :36:11. | :36:13. | |
and scatter over fresh nuts, But you'll have to wait | :36:14. | :36:15. | |
until the end of the show to find And what is happening on the | :36:16. | :36:27. | |
subtitling for quinoa? Apparently they've been coming out as "keen | :36:28. | :36:37. | |
wire"! Now is that good? That was really bad timing. | :36:38. | :36:42. | |
Now it's time to catch up with Nigel Slater who's using up | :36:43. | :36:46. | |
left overs in a chicken and cous cous salad and some | :36:47. | :36:49. | |
Better than quinoa, do you think? Yes! Let's take a look. | :36:50. | :37:07. | |
Heaven is opening the fridge and finding the remains of somebody's | :37:08. | :37:11. | |
roast chicken. In my book, leftovers should be a joy, not a core. | :37:12. | :37:20. | |
With all this chicken, I'm going to make a salad for Monday night. But | :37:21. | :37:25. | |
not just one of those salads that is a bit of left over meat and a few | :37:26. | :37:29. | |
leaf but something really interesting. I wanted to have | :37:30. | :37:35. | |
substance to it. I could use rice, lentil, or cracked wheat but I'm | :37:36. | :37:40. | |
going to use couscous. So my Monday night supper is a warm chicken salad | :37:41. | :37:47. | |
with couscous. As my main grant is the left over chicking, it will need | :37:48. | :37:54. | |
help to make it into a tasty dish. Now these are leftover but it is | :37:55. | :37:59. | |
very important that they don't taste like leftovers. I want something | :38:00. | :38:05. | |
vibrant and bright to shake them up. So I'm making a dressing with citrus | :38:06. | :38:12. | |
juice. Squeeze into a new bowl the juice of two lemons and two oranges. | :38:13. | :38:18. | |
Add some oil and season with salt and pepper. Then I put the dressing | :38:19. | :38:23. | |
on to the couscous and let it soak up. To compliment the tangy dressing | :38:24. | :38:29. | |
add some good-sized chunks of orange. When you use leftovers, the | :38:30. | :38:34. | |
whole generosity thing is important. Otherwise it looks mean, and you're | :38:35. | :38:38. | |
aware it is something you found lurking in the fridge. I want them | :38:39. | :38:43. | |
to be juicy pieces when I'm eating my salad. I always grow fresh herbs. | :38:44. | :38:49. | |
It's really easy to do and it makes such a difference. Chives and basil | :38:50. | :38:54. | |
are ideal for this dish. If you like lots of basil, or you | :38:55. | :39:00. | |
like lots of coriander, then put lots in - it's your supper, it's up | :39:01. | :39:06. | |
to you. Put everything into the same bowl and mix gently, it's that easy. | :39:07. | :39:12. | |
But don't overmix! It's all about the lightness of touch. I'm quite | :39:13. | :39:18. | |
happy with that but I just feel it needs something very lush, and green | :39:19. | :39:23. | |
and fresh-tasting. I have some pea shoots outside. You can grow all | :39:24. | :39:28. | |
sorts of fresh ingredients in pots, that can make a real difference to | :39:29. | :39:34. | |
your dinner, sprouted seeds are one of my favourites. There has always | :39:35. | :39:40. | |
been bean shoots, as well as peas but no-one thought to grow them. | :39:41. | :39:48. | |
They are so easy, pop them in dry soil, water them and a couple of | :39:49. | :39:52. | |
weeks later, you have these wonderful pea shoots. When you eat | :39:53. | :39:58. | |
the pea shoot it is like eating the lovely, fresh, garden pea. It's a | :39:59. | :40:04. | |
wonderful flavour. I could milk them up with the salad but I think it is | :40:05. | :40:10. | |
nice to have them as a bed for the chicken and the couscous, so you | :40:11. | :40:14. | |
find them at the bottom. It is just about adding something really green, | :40:15. | :40:25. | |
and fresh and vibrant. Then add that to the chicken you | :40:26. | :40:31. | |
found in the fridge. You know I really don't mind | :40:32. | :40:35. | |
spending money on food. I'm happy to pay for good food. But I do like to | :40:36. | :40:40. | |
use every little bit of it. I heat the idea of wasting things. There's | :40:41. | :40:44. | |
always something in the fridge that needs using up. | :40:45. | :40:49. | |
I know there's a mashed potato in the fridge. I could put anything in | :40:50. | :40:55. | |
that. I could make them into spicy cakes with just a few onions and | :40:56. | :41:00. | |
some spices. I always seem to have left over marsh in the fridge. So | :41:01. | :41:05. | |
tonight I'm going to make bubble and squeak cakes. | :41:06. | :41:10. | |
I want some sort of savoury base for my mashed potato. | :41:11. | :41:17. | |
Simply add spring onions to a hot pan with a good wedge of butter and | :41:18. | :41:21. | |
a drop of olive oil to stop the butter from burning. | :41:22. | :41:27. | |
I want something spicy to off-set the sweet, Buriness of the onions. | :41:28. | :41:33. | |
Not hot, just something warm and aromatic. First up is cardamom. | :41:34. | :41:38. | |
Break out the black seeds and grind them finally. I'm using a pestle and | :41:39. | :41:44. | |
mortar but you could use a plastic bag and a rolling pin. Then follow | :41:45. | :41:51. | |
it with coriander seeds and cumin. I don't want these to be too fine. I | :41:52. | :41:56. | |
don't want them ground to a complete powder. I want the nuttiness and | :41:57. | :42:02. | |
texture in there. I love coming across a bit of coarsely ground | :42:03. | :42:06. | |
spice. I'm just going to pop those in. | :42:07. | :42:15. | |
Cook everything together until the onion is a pale golden brown but | :42:16. | :42:20. | |
before they start to burn and crisp up. Mix in the mashed potato and | :42:21. | :42:30. | |
make some little potato cakes. I want them a bit crisps on the | :42:31. | :42:35. | |
outside, so they are going back in the pan. These are wonderful with | :42:36. | :42:44. | |
bacon. So grilled bacon rashers or even gammon steaks with these on the | :42:45. | :42:56. | |
side. Cook the cakes until crisp and brown on each side. I could serve | :42:57. | :43:01. | |
them as they are but I fancy a little extra something. I would like | :43:02. | :43:06. | |
a sauce with those-something that goes with the spices. Sometimes you | :43:07. | :43:11. | |
go to so much trouble to make a sauce and other times you want | :43:12. | :43:16. | |
something that is just so simple... So I'm going to put freshly chopped | :43:17. | :43:22. | |
coriander and some cream into a hot pan. That's pretty much all there is | :43:23. | :43:29. | |
too it. Some herbs, some cream, some salt, some purpose. | :43:30. | :43:35. | |
It's almost a cheek to call it a sauce. | :43:36. | :43:50. | |
-- some pepper. The warm aromatic spices in these | :43:51. | :43:55. | |
cakes are what makes this dish so delicious. Don't short cut the | :43:56. | :43:57. | |
spices! Thanks Nigel and there's more | :43:58. | :44:05. | |
of his fabulous recipes from Nigel next week | :44:06. | :44:07. | |
Still to come on today's show: Tom Kerridge is busy in the kitchen | :44:08. | :44:09. | |
He's making another one of his best ever dishes, | :44:10. | :44:12. | |
spicing up a Barnsley chop and served with | :44:13. | :44:14. | |
a courgette and feta salad And it's almost omelette challenge | :44:15. | :44:16. | |
time, and today's puns are in honour of our | :44:17. | :44:21. | |
guest Liz, so here goes. The EVIDENCE will be in the tasting, | :44:22. | :44:26. | |
when I EXAMINE DISSECT them - Will your omelettes prove to be | :44:27. | :44:38. | |
POSITIVE or NEGATIVE? Oh! That's over. | :44:39. | :44:52. | |
You didn't write those jokes? No, you wouldn't have done that?! | :44:53. | :44:55. | |
And will Liz get her food heaven, crab claws or food hell, quinoa! | :44:56. | :44:59. | |
We'll find out at the end of the show! | :45:00. | :45:01. | |
Beef Wellington, cabbage on the bottom, on top, puff pastry, | :45:02. | :45:15. | |
mushrooms on the site. And then grilled beef fill it. If you don't | :45:16. | :45:23. | |
mind, first things first, we brushed the puff pastry. I like your | :45:24. | :45:32. | |
glasses. They are made out of wood. They are quite Joe 90. The beef is | :45:33. | :45:40. | |
already cooked. I don't think we've got enough time to get it medium | :45:41. | :45:44. | |
rare cooked. We are going to cook both of them. One of them is three | :45:45. | :45:55. | |
quarters there. We always season the beef a la minute. Use one dry hand | :45:56. | :46:00. | |
so you do not have cross contamination from raw to cooked, | :46:01. | :46:05. | |
and then you wash your hands. This one is three quarters cooked. And | :46:06. | :46:20. | |
I'm doing the cabbage? Please. Just julienne it. This has been kicking | :46:21. | :46:29. | |
around quite a long time? 17 years. I started taking care of kitchens in | :46:30. | :46:38. | |
two private members club's. I've always liked classic dishes. This | :46:39. | :46:49. | |
beef Wellington, a mixture between a classic beef fillet with a very | :46:50. | :46:54. | |
heavy jus, and what else does he have? And obviously beef Wellington | :46:55. | :47:04. | |
has a crust. But no foie gras? Just chicken liver pate. I was under the | :47:05. | :47:09. | |
assumption that you made Mexican food? I am very proud to be 50% | :47:10. | :47:18. | |
Mexican, 50% British. We need mushrooms as well. The garnish, | :47:19. | :47:25. | |
mashed potato, same quantities of butter, potatoes, cream. That is a | :47:26. | :47:35. | |
very famous chef's recipe. Very rich mash. This is a very unhealthy dish | :47:36. | :47:41. | |
but very tasty. Liz will like that you had me at butter! You are a big | :47:42. | :47:47. | |
fan of Mexican food? Absolutely, loved it. My wedding was Mexican day | :47:48. | :47:55. | |
of the dead inspired, so the food was all Mexican. And five years on | :47:56. | :48:07. | |
we went to Wahaca and learnt to make mole and tamales, and is it | :48:08. | :48:12. | |
grasshoppers estimate they were gorgeous. I think it is the food of | :48:13. | :48:19. | |
the future. I don't think I will have a lot of you as if I cook that. | :48:20. | :48:26. | |
But they are delicious. With the cabbage, if we can put some cream | :48:27. | :48:32. | |
and cover it, that would be great. OK, so do you want these mushrooms | :48:33. | :48:38. | |
sauteed? Please. And just to finish, salt, pepper, and a little bit of | :48:39. | :48:44. | |
mustard with it. Very important with meat, after its cooked, just to | :48:45. | :48:49. | |
rest. Depending on the size, it's always very good to rest your meat | :48:50. | :48:56. | |
nicely. So going back to what you asked about Mexico and the style of | :48:57. | :49:08. | |
food that we cook. The style food is 90% onward, we use five different | :49:09. | :49:16. | |
types. Type of wood has a lot of sugar content. People would think | :49:17. | :49:20. | |
wood just cooks at at the same time it seasons. With fish, citrus wood | :49:21. | :49:27. | |
and a little bit of olive wood. That is all the rage now but you've been | :49:28. | :49:31. | |
doing it quite some time. One of my closest friends, his restaurant is | :49:32. | :49:37. | |
supposed to be one of the best in the world, and he cooks 100% in | :49:38. | :49:45. | |
wood, so I learnt most of the skills with wood with him. We do our own | :49:46. | :49:51. | |
charcoal. That is quite hard going. It is. That's a total sort of | :49:52. | :49:57. | |
different disciplines. It is. My head chef, the first one to arrive | :49:58. | :50:03. | |
to the kitchen actually makes the charcoal himself. One of the first | :50:04. | :50:08. | |
things we have to do in the kitchen. I am resting the meat now. A very | :50:09. | :50:16. | |
good trick is to use aromatic, a mix of Thai, rosemary and garlic. Put | :50:17. | :50:22. | |
your herbs on top. Is that just for resting? Correct. It's just finishes | :50:23. | :50:28. | |
the flavour nicely. And just crush some garlic on top. And pour a | :50:29. | :50:35. | |
little bit of olive oil. In your restaurant, our people readily | :50:36. | :50:38. | |
accepting of those Mexican inspired flavours? Lot of people were | :50:39. | :50:45. | |
confused that we were a Mexican restaurant, but we are not. I love | :50:46. | :50:50. | |
to bring a lot of my background. My mother is English, my grandmother is | :50:51. | :50:55. | |
Austrian, on my dad's side, Cuban, and my dad was Mexican, so I have a | :50:56. | :50:59. | |
massive combination of so many different flavours. But the food | :51:00. | :51:06. | |
that we cook is modern European with some indigenous ingredients from | :51:07. | :51:10. | |
Mexico. I think Mexico this year worldwide is going to get stronger | :51:11. | :51:14. | |
and stronger. I've had the privilege of getting over there a couple of | :51:15. | :51:17. | |
times in the last couple of years and it's a fascinating place. It's | :51:18. | :51:22. | |
amazing. The real grassroots cooking is just brilliant. It's amazing. | :51:23. | :51:27. | |
Very regional, like great French food, all the areas you go in | :51:28. | :51:31. | |
Mexico, very fascinating. The further north you go, the more | :51:32. | :51:38. | |
earthy, and the more Southee go, you get the tam that you mentioned -- | :51:39. | :51:47. | |
tamales. In the south we cook with corn husks. And we use a fungi that | :51:48. | :51:57. | |
grows on the corn itself, and it is delicious. We've got a ravioli on | :51:58. | :52:02. | |
the menu which has been rated very highly by reviewer to. I'm stepping | :52:03. | :52:06. | |
in and doing quite a lot of your cooking. I'm so sorry. | :52:07. | :52:12. | |
And if you'd like to try Fernando's or any of our studio recipes | :52:13. | :52:17. | |
then visit our website: bbc.co.uk/saturdaykitchen | :52:18. | :52:19. | |
So to recapture on equal quantities of cream and butter. Pretty much | :52:20. | :52:25. | |
saying for the mashed. The mushrooms have a spoonful of English mustard? | :52:26. | :52:33. | |
Correct. Sauteed cabbage off. Do you want to finish that with a little | :52:34. | :52:36. | |
bit of cream? Tiny bit of cream just to steam it. Perfect. We will take | :52:37. | :52:46. | |
that off the heat. Mushrooms are done, seasoning on the mushrooms. | :52:47. | :52:51. | |
Mash is ready. We are ready to plate, really. What do you think | :52:52. | :52:57. | |
will be the hero Mexican ingredient that will make it over here? Well, | :52:58. | :53:06. | |
chipotle is already the hero. There is a lovely, earthy ingredient. It's | :53:07. | :53:11. | |
a seed and you can marinate wonderful things with it. I think | :53:12. | :53:15. | |
it's a lovely ingredient. You can mix that with orange juice, goes | :53:16. | :53:20. | |
really well with pork. So that could be the next big thing. I actually | :53:21. | :53:27. | |
found that in the wild in a Mexican forest, and it's brilliant stuff. | :53:28. | :53:35. | |
Just delicious. A lot of people use it with chocolate which is really | :53:36. | :53:38. | |
unusual. It's kind of an earthy, savoury thing. In the puff pastry we | :53:39. | :53:45. | |
make a little hole. Do you want me to fill that? Thank you. You do the | :53:46. | :53:52. | |
rest. I'll start plating the dish. I need a spoon. I'm trying to help. | :53:53. | :54:00. | |
Thank you, chef. You put the oxtail jus on. That the cabbage, then the | :54:01. | :54:13. | |
oxtail jus, then the puff pastry. This is sort of quite fiddly, I | :54:14. | :54:18. | |
didn't expect this from your kind of cooking. It's also very French. It | :54:19. | :54:22. | |
is very French. But we've got a little bit of everything. Today we | :54:23. | :54:30. | |
celebrating 100% British. Good, good. And we sliced this. And you | :54:31. | :54:41. | |
want the truffles on as well? Yes. Thank you, chef. How generous are | :54:42. | :54:51. | |
you with your truffles? Very. That's enough! Do you like truffles? You | :54:52. | :55:00. | |
know the red meat and wine thing... No, I do like trouble is. Beef | :55:01. | :55:05. | |
Wellington, sad void cabbage, black truffles. | :55:06. | :55:12. | |
OK, let's go, you bring the match. Ayew ready? Ready. | :55:13. | :55:19. | |
I'm ready for the first incision. See what I did there? Oh, come on. | :55:20. | :55:30. | |
Let me give that a try. That looks delicious. It is sort of | :55:31. | :55:37. | |
deconstructed. A lot of people call it deconstructed beef Wellington. | :55:38. | :55:42. | |
And the meat is cooked to order. It is popular for a reason? I take it | :55:43. | :55:47. | |
off the menu and they ask me to put it back. Pate, truffles and beef, | :55:48. | :55:54. | |
what's not to like. How is it, nice? Yes. | :55:55. | :55:56. | |
Okay, let's head back to Haslemere to find out which wine Susie Barrie | :55:57. | :55:59. | |
has picked to go with Fernando's fabulous fillet of beef! | :56:00. | :56:19. | |
Fernando's dish is like the most spectacular deconstructed beef | :56:20. | :56:26. | |
Wellington I've ever tasted. And it need a really top notch red wine to | :56:27. | :56:30. | |
drink with it. Now, it's tempting to think with such ahead and mystic | :56:31. | :56:33. | |
plate of food we are going to think a powerful, full throttle red such | :56:34. | :56:46. | |
as this one with a dense, creamy texture and quite a lot of alcohol. | :56:47. | :56:50. | |
Although the Fergus is a terrific wine, when you have a dish with this | :56:51. | :56:55. | |
much richness, you need less weight and more acidity to refresh your | :56:56. | :57:02. | |
palate between mouthfuls. Debt up Lava Aglianico. If you want to try | :57:03. | :57:07. | |
something exciting and different that is great value for money, then | :57:08. | :57:13. | |
a little Aglianico from the ancient volcanic soils is hard to beat. When | :57:14. | :57:20. | |
you smell it, it's a mix of dark fruit with savoury, leafy aromas. | :57:21. | :57:23. | |
Although I've chosen this one specifically because it is not too | :57:24. | :57:27. | |
heavy or powerful, it certainly has enough weight to stand up to | :57:28. | :57:32. | |
everything on Fernando's plate. The right, black cherry fruit, and hint | :57:33. | :57:37. | |
of almond, are ideal for the beef and mushrooms. The freshness of the | :57:38. | :57:40. | |
wine will help to cut through the richness of the pastry, the chicken | :57:41. | :57:46. | |
liver pate and the jus. On the finish there's just a leafy note | :57:47. | :57:51. | |
that ties in perfectly with that crisp time. Fernando, I hope you | :57:52. | :57:58. | |
enjoy this wind just as much as I enjoyed tasting your incredible | :57:59. | :58:03. | |
dish, Cheers. STUDIO: How are you finding the wine? Delicious, ten out | :58:04. | :58:09. | |
of ten. A little bit chilly, but that is the studio. This one is red, | :58:10. | :58:16. | |
isn't it? Nice combination? Red wine and beef? Yeah, apparently that's | :58:17. | :58:19. | |
what you have, isn't it? It's now time to catch up | :58:20. | :58:23. | |
with The Hairy Bikers, Si and Dave. They're delivering us some more feel | :58:24. | :58:26. | |
good food with their take on the Escoffier classic dish sole | :58:27. | :58:29. | |
Veronique! Now with the best of British kitchen | :58:30. | :58:42. | |
we are going to be cooking up an old-fashioned culinary classic using | :58:43. | :58:45. | |
two ingredients guaranteed, whitefish and grapes. It's sole | :58:46. | :58:54. | |
Veronique, and we think it's time to revive this simple but beautiful | :58:55. | :59:02. | |
recipe. Sole Veronique, the epitome of feel-good food. It's one of those | :59:03. | :59:06. | |
dishes that you want to recuperate with, isn't it? It is. Poached fish | :59:07. | :59:12. | |
is easy to die just, it's delicious, and grapes, everybody knows they | :59:13. | :59:17. | |
make you feel better. Dover sole, not just the King of fish, it's the | :59:18. | :59:21. | |
absolute emperor. These Dover Sole fillets need skilling. But they are | :59:22. | :59:30. | |
splendiferous. To skin a fill it, put its skin side down, grab the | :59:31. | :59:35. | |
tail, get your knife underneath it, and just put the knife down there, | :59:36. | :59:42. | |
and just jiggle it to the end. And the last thing we want is any of the | :59:43. | :59:47. | |
meat to be left on the skin. That is beautiful. What we do very simply is | :59:48. | :59:56. | |
fold like that. And the thing about this dish, a feel-good dish, it is | :59:57. | :00:00. | |
very easy to eat. There's no bones, no skin. There's just lovely sweet | :00:01. | :00:07. | |
fish. You tuck into it, it digests easy, it's just so special. And the | :00:08. | :00:12. | |
grapes go together superbly with the fish. | :00:13. | :00:18. | |
On to your gently folded fish, pour some vermouth and 200 millitres of | :00:19. | :00:34. | |
stock. And a dot of butter and a bay leaf. | :00:35. | :00:43. | |
I have a couple of these Escoffies are recipes at home. | :00:44. | :00:49. | |
You think of this type of food as using lots of cream and brandy but | :00:50. | :00:56. | |
it wasn't. You have this very mouth, the fish | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
stock, the broth from the Dover sole, that will go with the cream, | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
the grapes and it will make a wonderful Dover sole sauce. | :01:06. | :01:11. | |
Cover the fish with buttered tin foil and put into an oven for 160 | :01:12. | :01:19. | |
degrees in a fan oven and cook for 15 to 20 minutes. | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
Half the grapes and deseed them, unless you are able to get seedless | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
grapes, as we did. What should we serve this with? It | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
should be something clean and comfy? Potatoes. New potatoes. | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
And asparagus. Yes! When the fish is done, remove | :01:41. | :01:50. | |
it tonne a plate and cover it in tin foil to keep warm. | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
That is just goodness. No mystery, no skin, no surprise, no bones. Just | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
abject yum factor. Now pour in the cooking liquor. All of that lovely | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
fish stock and vermouth and the Bury juices in a pan. It is a good tip to | :02:08. | :02:15. | |
do this in the frying pan, base, the stock will reduce quickly. | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
We have to reduce the stock by half. It's a beautiful thing to watch. You | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
never know, if we stair into it long enough, we may become refined as | :02:25. | :02:31. | |
sole Veronique! I feel that the sole Veronique, it's a fine classic dish | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
but its flavours, they're not overpowering. It's simple, | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
classical, and the flavours they enhance the Dover sole without | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
overpowering or strangling it. In fact, I would say it's a perfect | :02:45. | :02:55. | |
balance! Good! I'm chuffed for you! That's reduced by about half. | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
Looking nice. Lovely. | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
I'm stirring in double cream. A little bit of tarragon chopped up in | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
the sauce is really nice. Tarragon is lovely with fish, isn't it? It? | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
Beautiful. Now, there is a scout teaspoon | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
there. Put that in there. Then we add our grapes and we cook those for | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
about a minute in the sauce. That's going to release the sugars in the | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
grapes. Check for the seasoning eh? | :03:29. | :03:30. | |
Absolutely. That's amazing. | :03:31. | :03:38. | |
It is so good. Escoffier, God love him. That is beautiful. I had | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
forgotten how nice it is. Wouldn't it be vulgar to have black pepper in | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
that sauce... White purpose! It is gothic. | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
Beautiful. The fish is done. | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
Let's plate it up. I have some new potatoes and | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
asparagus here. I think centre stage, do you? Oh, | :04:04. | :04:10. | |
without a doubt. Absolutely superb. Over the top. And some on those. Oh, | :04:11. | :04:19. | |
look at that. Now look at that plate of food. If | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
you would deliver that to somebody who's in their bed, or a bit poorly | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
sat in the chair, that's going to make you feel better straightaway. | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
That instant emotion of "that looks great." | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
That plate of food would lift the most morose of spirits. It would | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
make you want to dance with joy. It would make the apathetic want to do | :04:48. | :04:49. | |
stuff. Yep. | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
It is positivity on a plate. It feels so good! Can I add that? | :04:55. | :05:01. | |
You should. Oh, yeah, our sole Veronique, | :05:02. | :05:08. | |
whoever Veronique was, she is living immortal on a plate. | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
What's so lovely is the grape with the fish, it just cuts through the | :05:14. | :05:22. | |
buttery, creamy sauce. You're dead right, mate. And it | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
would work with place and if you're a bit skint, it would liven up a | :05:28. | :05:34. | |
piece of haddock as well. You don't get Dover sole every day of the | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
And there's more from Si and Dave next week. | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
First up it is Elaine from the to some of you at home. | :05:45. | :05:53. | |
First up it is Elaine from the Wirral. What is your question? I | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
have a rib of beef. I would like the best way to cook it. | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
Fernando? I would marinade your rib of beef with a little bit of | :06:05. | :06:12. | |
oregano, olive oil and lemon zest. A little bit of pepper and then grill | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
it. Cut it into slices, about 120 grams and cook it on each side. | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
Not as a whole piece? There are many ways to do it but grilling the way I | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
like it the most. Good luck. Elaine, what would you like to see, heaven | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
or hell? Heaven, please. That's because I'm from the Wirral as well. | :06:37. | :06:46. | |
You have a tweet for us? Please ask Tonia for a good recipe for | :06:47. | :06:58. | |
skordiala? It is a Greece sauce? It is, using lots of garlic and olive | :06:59. | :07:06. | |
oil, and just beat it until it becomes really, really creamy. | :07:07. | :07:15. | |
Another one? Yes, can you do something for curry using chicken, | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
please. What would you do with that? I would | :07:19. | :07:26. | |
usually mix ketchup, mustard, honey, a little stock and leave the skins | :07:27. | :07:35. | |
of the chicken on. Put it in the oven and cook that gently. | :07:36. | :07:41. | |
Is this for the staff, this food? Yes, why not. It's very nice! And | :07:42. | :07:50. | |
now another question. From Nicola fr. | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
I would like to know the best recipe for a Greek salad. I have tried many | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
but it does not taste the way it does in Greece. | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
Fernando?! The main thing is vegetables. Getting them grown in | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
the sun. It gives it a different flavour. But chunks of tomato, feta, | :08:14. | :08:30. | |
olives. Chillies? No chillies. That trilogy of salt, lemon juice, and on | :08:31. | :08:36. | |
you go. What time of tomatoes? My | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
grandmother picked whatever tomato is growing in the garden. Whichever | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
have the most flavour. Those are the ones you need. | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
Heaven or hell? Heaven, please. Zara from Cambridge. I would like a | :08:53. | :08:59. | |
recipe for loin steaks. When I cook them they tend to be hard. | :09:00. | :09:06. | |
Pork loin steaks? I would make a Greek wine and coriander dish. | :09:07. | :09:13. | |
Marinade it over night with red wine, olive oil, salt, coriander | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
seeds that have been crushed and marinade it overnight. Then cook it | :09:18. | :09:24. | |
slowly. Nice. I would try that one. And heaven or hell? Heaven, please. | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
Excellent. Going well! Fernando you're on 21.16, Tonia, | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
how's your omelette making skills - Your first time? It is. Nervous? Yes | :09:31. | :09:49. | |
but can I tell you that Greeks do things slowly. | :09:50. | :09:50. | |
You both know the rules - You must use three eggs but feel free | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
to use anything else from the ingredients | :09:56. | :09:56. | |
in front of you to make them as tasty as possible. | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
The clocks stop when your omelette hits the plates. | :10:00. | :10:01. | |
Let's put the clocks on the screen for everyone at home please. | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
Fernando, you are very competitive. . He is so competitive! Oh, look, | :10:05. | :10:14. | |
the shell is on. Do you want to try one of these, Liz? You know what, | :10:15. | :10:25. | |
no! That looks terrible, Fernando! I don't think it is going on the | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
board. Are you kidding me! You can keep | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
that music going for a while! We can have a chat. | :10:34. | :10:35. | |
There we go. Very nice. | :10:36. | :10:42. | |
Right, let's turn that off. OK. I don't know why I'm doing this, I am | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
going through the motions. We are going to charge you for that pan. | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
You have taken the nonstick off it. I can't taste that. It has shell on | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
it. It's not cooked. That ain't going on. Right, this looks | :10:58. | :11:04. | |
lovely... Oh, no! That's really nice! Very good. | :11:05. | :11:13. | |
Yeah but how long?! Tonia... Oh, dear. Am I the longest? 40.40. So | :11:14. | :11:20. | |
that is going right down here somewhere. Ferrando, that was a | :11:21. | :11:26. | |
shocker. That is not going anywhere. What's the music today? | :11:27. | :11:35. | |
# When the going gets tough... It's Billy Ocean's birthday, it is happy | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
So will Liz get her food heaven, crab claws or Food Hell, Quinoa? | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
We'll find out the result after Tom Kerridge treats us | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
to his brilliant take on a Barnsley chop recipe! | :11:48. | :12:00. | |
For a great mid-week meal, lamb chops are hard to beat. If you're | :12:01. | :12:07. | |
like me and want a proper manly cut of meat for tea, then the famous | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
Barnsley chop is one of the best. To turn this northern cut of meat | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
into something a little more exotic, I'm using a couple of my favourite | :12:16. | :12:22. | |
spices - coriander seeds, and to go with the coriander seeds, cumin | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
seeds, whole. This gives it a kind of Indian, north African feel that | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
goes with lamb so, so well. Toast it on a medium heat. When they have a | :12:33. | :12:38. | |
nice even brown colour, I pour them on to a plate and leave them to | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
cool. Now time for the lamb. Which I've tied together like a little | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
present. To get the most out of this cut, you have to render out the fat. | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
Just keep the chop fat side down. Once it's crispy all the way around, | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
lift out this bad boy to cool for a couple of minutes. Smells delicious. | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
Save the left over lamb fat for something special later. Now back to | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
your spices. These guys have cooled down. I'm | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
going to stick them in the heaviest pestle and mortar in the world. It's | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
the spicy crust that's going to take this chop a whole new level. Give it | :13:19. | :13:27. | |
a good bash. Just get rid of the husks. Look at the lovely spices on | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
the plate. Give your Barnsley chop a gorgeous spicy coating on one side. | :13:34. | :13:39. | |
You can see it already, it is giving it a lovely crust it almost looks | :13:40. | :13:45. | |
cooed but it ain't, though, you have to cook it. Pop the chop in the hot | :13:46. | :13:56. | |
pan, after ten minutes turn it over. Then turn it over and leave it for | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
another two. OK, look at the lovely colour on | :14:01. | :14:08. | |
that! Add a knob of butter. That foam will give it another nutty | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
flavour going on to the lamb. And a good squeeze of lemon juice. | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
Then all you need to do is love it and care for it. Massage it, and add | :14:19. | :14:24. | |
a little bit of foaming butter. And that's it. Cooked. Just pour over | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
some of those nutty spices juices. Look at that. Cooking don't get much | :14:30. | :14:36. | |
better than that. Just give it ten minutes to relax and right before | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
serving add a touch of orange zest. That is going to make that, the | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
Barnsley chop beauty. grapes go together superbly with the | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
fish. Now, I'm not really a salad kind of | :14:50. | :15:00. | |
guy, but I've got a recipe that a great partner for your lamb chop. | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
This is going to be the ultimate salad to go with my LAN. A little | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
bit like Nicoise using black olives, salty kick from using some feta, bit | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
of a chilly spice using red and green chilies. Here's what makes | :15:18. | :15:25. | |
this the best salad ever. This is the land fat from the Barnsley chop. | :15:26. | :15:32. | |
This is full of lamby flavour. Perfect for frying courgettes in. | :15:33. | :15:36. | |
Sliced courgettes nice and thick, so when you fry them they will stay | :15:37. | :15:40. | |
quite firm and not go all soft and floppy. I know it might seem a bit | :15:41. | :15:47. | |
odd but using this lamb fat will make all the difference. They will | :15:48. | :15:54. | |
fry and take on all that lamb fat flavour. All they need is a couple | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
of minutes on each side. There you go, just getting a nice brown | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
caramelised Asian on top of the courgette. Just about soft enough to | :16:03. | :16:13. | |
eat -- Laurent Miquel Vendanges Nocturnes Viognier. Give them a | :16:14. | :16:15. | |
pinch of sea salt and whilst the next batches on the go you can give | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
them a pinch salad. This gem lettuce has a nice crunchy snap to it which | :16:22. | :16:27. | |
comes from the court in the middle. I'm going to build those layers of | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
flavour and texture. Just dice up some crisp green pepper. Not too | :16:32. | :16:37. | |
fine. You still want crunchy texture in your mouth. Now for some heat if | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
you can handle it. Don't just go them on without knowing how hot they | :16:43. | :16:47. | |
are, you've got to taste it. That way you know how hot it is and how | :16:48. | :16:53. | |
much to use. In this case, I'm only going to use one Laurent Miquel | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
Vendanges Nocturnes -- I'm only going to use one chilli | :16:57. | :17:06. | |
because it's hot. Perhaps I will tone it down a bit. The red is never | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
normally as spicy as the green, but you've still got to try it. This one | :17:13. | :17:20. | |
is not as hot. Just scattered the chilli over the top and for a taste | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
of the mad at some black olives and feta cheese. The great thing about | :17:25. | :17:31. | |
feta, it has a fantastic salt content, you don't really need to | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
seize on this salad. Add some coriander and mint leaves and you | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
are ready for your courgettes. The heat that is coming from them will | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
just slowly wheeled the lettuce leaves and the mint leaves around | :17:43. | :17:49. | |
them. -- slowly wilt. Not hot, but warm, and it will slowly bring | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
everything together. A little bit like being in a steam room. Pour | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
over a bit of sherry vinegar to turn this into a really tasty dinner. | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
Grab those precious meat juices. Just going to drizzle some of this | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
flavoursome oil all over the salad. I know it's not your normal olive | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
oil dressing but using that lamb fat and that flavour takes it to the | :18:15. | :18:16. | |
next level. Do it, people. Right, time to find out | :18:17. | :18:29. | |
whether Liz is getting her food I'm quite nervous... Not. This was | :18:30. | :18:44. | |
your idea of heaven, crab claws, prawns. A little bit of the spicy | :18:45. | :18:51. | |
sausage, some ravioli. Here is the superfood hell, clean eating health. | :18:52. | :18:59. | |
What is this thing? What is this. We've got quinoa, here. We've also | :19:00. | :19:09. | |
got some raw kale, and the pork chop as well. So listen, we'll go through | :19:10. | :19:15. | |
the motions but basically everyone, all our callers went for heaven. | :19:16. | :19:21. | |
Guys, you can't change it. It's heaven. Definitely heaven. Which is | :19:22. | :19:28. | |
great because we all want to eat this. 5-0 heaven. Clear that. Get | :19:29. | :19:37. | |
the healthy stuff away. Wedded distrust of healthy food come from? | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
Just life. I think life is too short, we should eat nice food. I'm | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
not saying healthy food isn't bad. Partly it's because I don't trust | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
the name of something, and so when things suddenly appear and I get a | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
bit suspicious of them, they are a bit faddy. I like good food. There | :20:00. | :20:06. | |
was just something about the quinoa, the raw food. I like but and I like | :20:07. | :20:19. | |
carbs. -- I like butter. What is food like onset of the Silent | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
Witness? It's really good. You get your main meal that at lunchtime and | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
then you've got another six hours to film. So you've got to be really | :20:27. | :20:34. | |
careful. I do love carbs, but if you go too carb-heavy, you fall asleep. | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
You are just doing some high-tech sluicing that everything is a bit | :20:41. | :20:47. | |
slow and difficult. Something we did not talk about earlier, you did a | :20:48. | :20:55. | |
law degree? Yes, I did. I'm not sure what you want me to tell you about | :20:56. | :20:58. | |
that. I just find it quite interesting, really. Do you know | :20:59. | :21:08. | |
what? I did the law degree and then went out and started to break the | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
law. So you know how to get away with it? It's very useful for that. | :21:13. | :21:18. | |
I did quite a lot of direct action. I'm going on the women's march | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
today. I saw that on Twitter earlier. I'm heading there after | :21:24. | :21:29. | |
this. You are a big activist? I am, I like a bit of a protest. We've got | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
a voice, we have democracy, we should use it and speak out. There's | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
lots of people that can't soak if we can I think we should use that. Are | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
you marching along with a lot of women in Washington as well? That's | :21:45. | :21:50. | |
where it began, the day after the inauguration, I know we might not | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
want to talk about that, but the inauguration yesterday. Women are | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
really concerned that under Trump women's rights aren't going to get | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
represented, they are going to be diminished. And so there is a march | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
in DC today and all over the States and actually all over the world, | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
something like 62 countries. All over the UK. Central London, loads | :22:12. | :22:17. | |
of women. And you don't have to be a woman, anyone can go. Just to say | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
that we are here, don't ignore us. So you are going to need your | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
calories. I need filling up. How long is it? I think it kicks off | :22:28. | :22:34. | |
around the American Embassy at noon and then I think there is a rally at | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
Trafalgar Square at around 2pm. So I will be there. Quite some time, | :22:40. | :22:45. | |
then. Yes. So going back to Silent witness, why do you think it has had | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
such longevity? Is it the writing? It has been going for 20 odd years. | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
Good stories, great stories. I think the two hours, what it is now, two | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
one-hour episodes, we think that's kind of a film now. It's not just | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
one hour and you know where it is going. There are real cliffhangers. | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
Even if you watched the first one you probably never going to know who | :23:11. | :23:13. | |
it is until the very end of the second one. I've got the script and | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
I don't always know who it is! So I watch them and kind of get surprised | :23:18. | :23:24. | |
by them every time to be honest. But do you read things and go, Clarissa | :23:25. | :23:31. | |
would never do this? Absolutely. The great one coming up that I really | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
like, in the second episode on Tuesday there is a bit of a | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
heart-to-heart between Clarissa and Jack. We have a real great bond and | :23:43. | :23:48. | |
friendship. And we've managed to shoehorn in a Pretty Woman film | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
reference into the script. I don't think they knew what it was. So I'm | :23:53. | :24:03. | |
just putting it out there. We were just, let say that. I'm trying to | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
think of them now. And this is on Tuesday? This is Tuesday night. So | :24:09. | :24:15. | |
we do have fun with that. Sometimes you think, Clarissa would never say | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
that, or let's just make it more real. The way Clarissa and Jack talk | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
is very much how real people do and that's how we want it. So when you | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
take on a character like that for so long, how much does that cross over? | :24:31. | :24:37. | |
When you are in their filming it quite a lot it is quite weird. I | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
don't think it is for all actors but I find it, because you are thinking | :24:44. | :24:47. | |
in a certain way, acting in a certain way, and you look different. | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
She has different hair, different clothes, different sensibilities. So | :24:52. | :24:58. | |
I think some people find it easy to jump in and out. I didn't, | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
necessarily. But I do find her quite easy to play, she is a joy. When | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
filming is it back-to-back, week on week? Clarissa, as people have often | :25:07. | :25:13. | |
messaged in order to eat it, it does feel like she never leaves the Lyell | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
Centre. If they ever take me on to location it's sort of a miracle. I | :25:19. | :25:22. | |
tend to do one or two weeks out of five weeks. The other guys out and | :25:23. | :25:28. | |
about will do about five weeks but I normally do two. We film from April | :25:29. | :25:34. | |
to November. It's pretty intense. Personally I get enough time to do | :25:35. | :25:37. | |
all the other stuff. Can you tell us if there is a new series on the way? | :25:38. | :25:47. | |
I think there is. After your comment earlier, maybe there won't be? Can | :25:48. | :25:53. | |
you imagine? It's popular. I did think it was like, we'll get to the | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
20th series and that will be it. It is popular enough that I think the | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
demand is there to bring it back. Whether I come back is another | :26:01. | :26:08. | |
question. Well, we'll wait and see. After Max turns up. You might swap | :26:09. | :26:15. | |
out. That might be it. Let's recap this. We've all done things very | :26:16. | :26:20. | |
quickly. So this is the heaven dish. I've got some white crab meat. We | :26:21. | :26:23. | |
made three little ravioli with someone torn papers which are a good | :26:24. | :26:34. | |
cheat -- with some wonton papers. Some brown crab meat, white crab | :26:35. | :26:39. | |
meat, sealed together. This is crab and prawn stock with a little bit of | :26:40. | :26:43. | |
chicken stock or fish stock boiled together. Little bit of brandy as | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
well. Over here is a deep-fried crabs claw. Which Fernando lovingly | :26:49. | :26:55. | |
put together here. Remind me, minced prawns, little bit of soy sauce, | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
garlic, ginger in there. Bit of sherry. That was pretty much it, | :27:00. | :27:07. | |
wasn't it? Soya sauce. Couple of the ravioli. I was going to say, do you | :27:08. | :27:17. | |
want me to do anything to help? Just stand there and relax. You've got a | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
big old much later. That's right, I've got to keep my energy up. Is it | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
almost ready question mark I'm quite hungry. It is. I've got places to | :27:26. | :27:33. | |
go, marches to do. Excuse me, I'm marching. I'm really glad you went | :27:34. | :27:40. | |
offending at saying marching. Some people think, can't say marching, | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
she is in a wheelchair, might get offended. I just find it's better to | :27:46. | :27:49. | |
bluster my way through. I've noticed. And you didn't call me | :27:50. | :27:50. | |
funny bones. I'm going to get some wine to go | :27:51. | :28:00. | |
with this. So, what have we got here? To go with this crab, this is | :28:01. | :28:11. | |
a reasoning from Baily and Baily, ?8.49 from Waitrose. Don't drink too | :28:12. | :28:17. | |
much otherwise you'll be swerving all over your March. Are you working | :28:18. | :28:26. | |
tonight? I am. It's got a lovely kick to it. Is that OK? It's | :28:27. | :28:34. | |
beautiful. Really? Good, you like that? I'm happy at last. Good. | :28:35. | :28:37. | |
