0:00:01 > 0:00:05You buy your ingredients and you're looking forward to some cooking.

0:00:05 > 0:00:08Which top chef will you turn to for inspiration today?

0:00:08 > 0:00:11We've got all your favourites -

0:00:11 > 0:00:15the nation's top TV chefs, all in one place, on The A-Z of TV Cooking.

0:00:32 > 0:00:36Today, we're looking at things linked to the letter N.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39Here's just some of what we've got on the menu.

0:00:39 > 0:00:43The taste of the takeaway, with the Hairy Bikers' Singapore noodles.

0:00:43 > 0:00:46Now, you almost have to knit the other ingredients into the noodles.

0:00:46 > 0:00:49The best way is with a fork or some chopsticks.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53The Greedy Italians make a ragu Napolitana.

0:00:53 > 0:00:57Oh, why I'm cooking so good?!

0:00:57 > 0:01:01Why you don't wait that we taste it before you say that? Proper ragu.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05'And Raymond Blanc's greengage nougatine.'

0:01:05 > 0:01:08It is not the simplest dessert that I've ever done.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12But it's worth the effort and you must try it at home.

0:01:15 > 0:01:20First up, one of my favourite cooking Ns - Nigel Slater.

0:01:20 > 0:01:26Although it's not him we're looking at, it's his delicious noodle soup, he's cooking up here.

0:01:28 > 0:01:33Sometimes I look at recipes and I see a great long list of ingredients

0:01:33 > 0:01:36At first, I'm tempted to turn the page.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38But then, if I have a closer look,

0:01:38 > 0:01:42I find that actually, it's just a long list of shopping,

0:01:42 > 0:01:45but the method is really quick and simple.

0:01:45 > 0:01:47This is one of those dishes.

0:01:47 > 0:01:52It's a sweet and spicy soup, with all those lovely Southeast Asian flavours,

0:01:53 > 0:01:57with chilli for heat and coconut milk for sweetness.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01First, I'll need chilli, garlic and ginger -

0:02:01 > 0:02:05then, one of my favourite ingredients, lemongrass.

0:02:05 > 0:02:09And if I can find some in the shops - a few lime leaves.

0:02:09 > 0:02:13I'm just going to break these up a little bit, want to crumble them.

0:02:13 > 0:02:18They're not essential, but they will give a lovely, citrus fragrance to the dish.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21I want to put some coriander in there.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25I'm saving the delicate leaves to add at the last minute,

0:02:25 > 0:02:29but the tougher stems can go in with the spices.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32Add a little oil, then simply blitz.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35This will keep in the fridge, so make in advance, if you like.

0:02:35 > 0:02:39I'm going to use about half that spice mix.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43The rest I'll keep in a little bowl in the fridge for another day.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45If you make a smaller amount,

0:02:45 > 0:02:48the blades won't engage with the food.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52Now I'll need some liquid.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54Water would do in a soup,

0:02:54 > 0:02:58but I think it's always good using a really good stock.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01I've got lots of spice in there.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03I want to add something sweet.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06I'm going to use coconut milk.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16This has a rich, nutty sweetness.

0:03:16 > 0:03:20Without it, this dish would just be a spicy soup.

0:03:22 > 0:03:25And I want this to be a sugar and spice.

0:03:25 > 0:03:29And that sugar, that sweetness, comes from the coconut milk.

0:03:31 > 0:03:35I love putting smooth, slippery noodles in a sweet and spicy soup.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38These are glass noodles.

0:03:38 > 0:03:42No cooking required. Just soak in boiling water for a few minutes.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47I want some other ingredients in there.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49I'm going to put some tomatoes in.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54I'm going to keep these pieces quite small.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56And they take seconds to cook.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01What else goes in the soup is up to you.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05It could be chicken, fish or vegetables.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08Today, I fancy some sweet, juicy prawns.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11Frozen are fine. Use grey, uncooked ones.

0:04:15 > 0:04:18As soon as they've stopped being grey,

0:04:19 > 0:04:24and have taken on a bit of pink colour, they're cooked.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26Now's the time for a quick taste,

0:04:26 > 0:04:30and an opportunity to adjust the flavours to how you like them.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33I'm adding a little extra sweet coconut milk,

0:04:33 > 0:04:37a splash of fish sauce and a squeeze of lime.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40It's what I really love about cooking.

0:04:40 > 0:04:44It's not following a set of rules - one, do this, two, do that.

0:04:44 > 0:04:50It's about tasting a dish as you go along and working out the changes that you want to make to it.

0:04:51 > 0:04:55Add the coriander leaves before putting everything together.

0:05:03 > 0:05:06And finally, a sprinkling of cooling mint.

0:05:17 > 0:05:21It's the heat from the chillies, the heat from the ginger,

0:05:21 > 0:05:24the sweetness from the coconut milk,

0:05:24 > 0:05:28and then this amazing freshness from the lime, the lemon, the mint.

0:05:28 > 0:05:33The classic Southeast Asian combination of spicy and sweet

0:05:33 > 0:05:35just works so well in this soup.

0:05:35 > 0:05:40The sweetness of the coconut marries with the heat of the chilli and ginger,

0:05:40 > 0:05:45and makes a few prawns and noodles into a very special supper indeed.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00'And more noodles coming up now, from the Hairy Bikers.'

0:06:00 > 0:06:03'They're trying to create their own perfect takeaway.'

0:06:03 > 0:06:06'So, take it away, fellas.' HE LAUGHS

0:06:08 > 0:06:12We tried to choose a dish that epitomises the takeaway,

0:06:12 > 0:06:15like the child of the takeaway.

0:06:15 > 0:06:19The dish we've come to terms with is the Singapore noodle.

0:06:19 > 0:06:22I think the Singapore noodles is a one-pot wok wonder.

0:06:22 > 0:06:25You're not wrong. Won't say that again. No, you won't.

0:06:28 > 0:06:33Singapore noodles - a takeaway staple that's nothing to do with Singapore.

0:06:33 > 0:06:37It's a Cantonese creation combining the best of Chinese flavours

0:06:37 > 0:06:39with a little bit of curry.

0:06:39 > 0:06:44What could be a better celebration of the great British takeaway than that?

0:06:44 > 0:06:49Our Singapore noodles, our take on it has this... Look at this.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52Beautiful loin of pork and I'm just going to trim that sinew off.

0:06:52 > 0:06:56And we've got some prawns. It's a pork-and-prawn vibe.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58And it's very, very lovely.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00I'm going to prepare that and the marinade.

0:07:00 > 0:07:05I'll trim this sinew off first. The pork is a like char siu pork -

0:07:05 > 0:07:09the pork you get in Chinese food, that's got that red frill round it.

0:07:09 > 0:07:13But there's no food colouring. All the flavour, none of the chemicals.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15Let's talk noodles.

0:07:15 > 0:07:20Use egg or rice noodles, as long as they are really thin, like vermicelli.

0:07:20 > 0:07:24Soak them in hot, but not boiling water, for about three minutes.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Then they're ready to use.

0:07:26 > 0:07:30I'm going to prep this lovely marinade, it's very simple.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33We start with three tablespoons of soy - it's the light soy.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36And two of sherry.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40One way to use up the leftovers when the vicar's gone home.

0:07:41 > 0:07:45Finish it off with two teaspoons of soft, light brown sugar,

0:07:45 > 0:07:49and half a teaspoon of five spice powder and give it a good stir.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52I'm going to put the pork loin into that marinade,

0:07:52 > 0:07:56coat it and leave it for about half an hour.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59What's going to happen is, the meat's going to open up slightly,

0:07:59 > 0:08:03and draw all those lovely flavours into it.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06So when we cut it, we should get that lovely...

0:08:06 > 0:08:10You get that lovely char siu, the red bit round the edge.

0:08:10 > 0:08:12Ooh, it's lovely.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16While it's marinading, drain your noodles

0:08:16 > 0:08:20and dress them with a glug of oil to stop them sticking together.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22Well, that's half an hour.

0:08:22 > 0:08:26It's changed colour and appears to have absorbed some marinade. Lovely.

0:08:26 > 0:08:30Next, drain the pork. Place it in a foil-lined baking tray,

0:08:30 > 0:08:32and lightly coat it with oil.

0:08:32 > 0:08:36Then it's into the oven at 200 degrees Celsius, for 12 minutes.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40Keep the leftover marinade for later. You don't want to lose any flavour.

0:08:40 > 0:08:44And that gives us time... To do the mise en place.

0:08:44 > 0:08:49The big thing about Chinese cookery is you prepare everything ready,

0:08:49 > 0:08:54because your cooking, the final push happens very quick.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56It's a wokking and a wolling, that's what it is.

0:08:57 > 0:09:01Chop one red onion, a bunch of spring onions, and a red pepper.

0:09:01 > 0:09:07All your veggies and everything should be the size to be picked up with a chopstick.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09Slice 100g of shiitake mushrooms

0:09:09 > 0:09:13and grate a chunk of ginger and two cloves of garlic.

0:09:13 > 0:09:17That's a wonderful thing about the cosmopolitan nature of British food.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19The reason for that is,

0:09:19 > 0:09:24you want that ginger to pervade what is quite a quick cooking process.

0:09:24 > 0:09:30It's actually better to have it like that, than in chunks, in our view.

0:09:30 > 0:09:34I love Chinese food. I come from Barrow, a provincial Northern town.

0:09:34 > 0:09:38But we've had Chinese takeaways there since I was a little boy.

0:09:38 > 0:09:42One of my favourite restaurants has been there for 30 years.

0:09:42 > 0:09:46Prior to that, the only access to Asian food I had was a Vesta.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49It was like a box of sawdust rehydrated.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53Then I'd go to the carryout, and see chop suey, chow mein, egg foo yung.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55And I thought "This is brilliant!"

0:09:55 > 0:10:01Because Chinese cuisine has been part of our culinary heritage for such a long time,

0:10:01 > 0:10:05you actually lose sight of what the real cuisine is.

0:10:05 > 0:10:11It's been so anglicised over so many years, because it's been here for such a long time.

0:10:11 > 0:10:14You mean like Singapore noodles? It's true, though.

0:10:14 > 0:10:20I think that's the wonderful thing about the cosmopolitan nature of British food.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23It's got its own identity now.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25It's tasty, and to be honest, I love it.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28Once all the components are chopped,

0:10:28 > 0:10:31it should be time to get the pork out of the oven.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34We're off, mate. We're on.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36Beautiful. Oh, look at that.

0:10:37 > 0:10:40That's perfect. About half that in our dish?

0:10:40 > 0:10:43I think so. And the other half for nibbling.

0:10:44 > 0:10:48Oh-oh-ha! And this - don't waste that lovely fat.

0:10:48 > 0:10:52What we'll do is, we'll stick that in the wok.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00Now, I'm just going to put some heat into that wok.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02Little bit more oil.

0:11:03 > 0:11:07The heat in the wok... At this point we want it over a medium heat.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Not a mega-nuts high heat.

0:11:09 > 0:11:13What we'll do is stir-fry off these lovely shiitake mushrooms,

0:11:13 > 0:11:16the onion and red pepper.

0:11:16 > 0:11:19Feels like a proper takeaway. Dave-Si Chinese Takeaway.

0:11:19 > 0:11:23I can see it. It's a future. I wouldn't mind that.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25Let's get stir-frying.

0:11:28 > 0:11:32Once your ingredients are in the pan, keep them moving.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35By tossing and stirring them in the wok, it stops them burning

0:11:35 > 0:11:37and gets them all nicely browned.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41While that's cooking, I can prep the pork.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44I want little half-moons, so let's cut this in half.

0:11:44 > 0:11:48It's just juicy on the inside, but it's cooked through.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50We'll cut that like so.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54Like so. Oh, Dave. See all that juice?

0:11:54 > 0:11:56Yeah, I know. O-o-oh!

0:11:56 > 0:11:59I'm going to nick a bit. Sorry, cannot resist. Oh!

0:12:00 > 0:12:02Ah, it's fabulous.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08Next. The ginger and the garlic.

0:12:08 > 0:12:12Mix them in and continue to stir-fry for a minute or so.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15Keep an eye on the garlic, though. You don't want it to burn.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18Then add two teaspoons of Madras curry powder.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21You can add more if you like it extra hot,

0:12:21 > 0:12:23or one less if you prefer it milder.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26Oh, yes! Now it's starting... It is, isn't it?

0:12:26 > 0:12:30It's starting to smell like Singapore noodles we know and love.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32In with the pork!

0:12:35 > 0:12:37In with the prawns!

0:12:38 > 0:12:41These are just frozen prawns. They're pre-cooked, frozen.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Nothing fancy.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47Spring onion. Lovely.

0:12:47 > 0:12:51Look at that. Look at the colours, though.,

0:12:51 > 0:12:53Fabulous, aren't they? Yeah.

0:12:53 > 0:12:58Just keep moving it around so it doesn't stick at the bottom, cos that heat's pretty intense.

0:12:58 > 0:13:00Time for the noodles!

0:13:01 > 0:13:06Just separate these out. I put some oil in so they would be like this.

0:13:06 > 0:13:11Now you almost have to knit the other ingredients into the noodles.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14The best way is either with a fork or some chopsticks.

0:13:14 > 0:13:18You may have noticed, there's no salt or soy gone in there.

0:13:18 > 0:13:23That's because we'll use the reserved marinade and meat juices to dress this with.

0:13:23 > 0:13:28Should I? Yes, please. And this'll just give us a bit more moisture.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34Should I keep going at it? That's it.

0:13:34 > 0:13:38There you are, Kingy-san. How about that? Lovely.

0:13:38 > 0:13:42Once all the noodles are coated and piping hot, we are done.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44Oh, look at those!

0:13:45 > 0:13:49Dish it up and garnish it with a few pieces of chopped chilli.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53There you are. Singapore noodles. Singapore noodles, via Hong Kong,

0:13:53 > 0:13:58via every other high-street takeaway in the country. Look at that!

0:13:58 > 0:14:03Singapore noodles. Everything that's great about a takeaway -

0:14:03 > 0:14:06quick, easy and a fantastic fusion of flavours.

0:14:06 > 0:14:10Succulent prawns and pork with a kick of exciting flavour.

0:14:12 > 0:14:16'Our next N is one of the traditional Indian staples,

0:14:16 > 0:14:19that have now been completely embraced here.'

0:14:19 > 0:14:22'Here's Anjum Anand, telling us how to make naan.'

0:14:27 > 0:14:31'Along with chapatis, naan is the most basic accompaniment to Indian food.'

0:14:31 > 0:14:34'The shop-bought version is convenient,

0:14:34 > 0:14:37'but tends to be more cake-like than the traditional variety.'

0:14:37 > 0:14:39'And nothing beats making it yourself.'

0:14:40 > 0:14:42So...

0:14:42 > 0:14:44My favourite.

0:14:44 > 0:14:48The thing about this... It is just so easy to do. Great.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50I know you love naan. I do.

0:14:50 > 0:14:54I've got some simple flour, baking powder. Uh-huh.

0:14:54 > 0:14:56Sugar or salt?

0:14:57 > 0:15:00Salt. Half a teaspoon. OK.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04Sugar. Now, naan is sweeter than it is salty,

0:15:04 > 0:15:07so maybe a teaspoon and a half. Yeah?

0:15:07 > 0:15:09OK, mix that all together.

0:15:09 > 0:15:12So that is all your dry ingredients.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Now, I'm making a well.

0:15:14 > 0:15:19And just milk and a little bit of oil, to keep it soft.

0:15:19 > 0:15:21I'm pouring it in the middle.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23I want you to put your hand straight in,

0:15:23 > 0:15:26and really slowly keep mixing and just move your wrist.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29Keep drawing the flour down from the sides. Oh, I see.

0:15:29 > 0:15:32You just gradually get a larger circle. Exactly.

0:15:32 > 0:15:36What you're looking for is a soft dough, but not sticky. Right.

0:15:36 > 0:15:40This is a very forgiving dough. Say you put in too much liquid, add more flour.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Too dry, add a bit of liquid.

0:15:42 > 0:15:47So at some stage, tip that onto the counter and have a good knead.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50Have you kneaded bread before? I've eaten it, I haven't kneaded it.

0:15:50 > 0:15:54It's a matter of pushing it away and bringing it back.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58Make it a nice rhythmic action, like you're giving a massage.

0:15:58 > 0:16:02We want the naan nice and soft, so it requires kneading - about 10 minutes or so.

0:16:02 > 0:16:05Let me have a feel. That's good.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08This is the only hard work involved.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11And I think it's a really good stress buster.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14This sort of thing - is it freezable?

0:16:14 > 0:16:16Dough freezes really well, actually.

0:16:16 > 0:16:20You could make up the naan, then freeze it and warm it in the oven.

0:16:20 > 0:16:24Really? I like the way that looks. That looks quite good to me.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27Nice ball. So, now it just needs to rest.

0:16:27 > 0:16:31I'll just put some oil in the bowl so it doesn't stick. Right.

0:16:31 > 0:16:37We've given the dough a fair pounding. So now it needs an hour to rest in a warm spot.

0:16:37 > 0:16:42This allows it to rise a little and gives me the chance to melt some butter to spread on top.

0:16:44 > 0:16:48Has it increased in volume? It has, yeah. OK, cool.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55Paul, here's your naan. Here's your rolling pin. Uh-huh.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58What is your topping of choice? I do like coriander.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00Coriander. Coriander it is.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04How do you get that to stay all in place?

0:17:04 > 0:17:08I'm going to do this. Good. I can do that.

0:17:08 > 0:17:12And what I do also like to do with naan is to...

0:17:12 > 0:17:14..prick it. Uh-huh?

0:17:14 > 0:17:17Sometimes it stops it fluffing up like a pitta bread.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20Right. And that's it. That's naan.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23Well, almost. Now it has to be cooked.

0:17:24 > 0:17:26Take your naan...

0:17:27 > 0:17:29..and slap it down.

0:17:29 > 0:17:33'Traditionally, this is done using a super-heated tandoor oven,

0:17:33 > 0:17:36but that doesn't mean you can't do it at home.'

0:17:36 > 0:17:40As you can see, I've been heating up a baking pan.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43And I put the grill on to as hot as it can get.

0:17:43 > 0:17:46And basically, just leave it. It will cook by itself.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49It takes just, like, a minute. That quick? That quick.

0:17:49 > 0:17:55You don't want the whole naan to be coloured. It should be white with lots of lovely brown. OK.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Looks very nice.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02Looks lovely.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05Done. All right, shall we have a taste test?

0:18:05 > 0:18:09Oh, yes, please. Oh, it's hot. Asbestos fingers, you said?

0:18:09 > 0:18:11That's it.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15Mm. Very nice.

0:18:15 > 0:18:19And that was so quick to do. Yeah. Very impressed.

0:18:19 > 0:18:21And I'm really impressed too.

0:18:21 > 0:18:27Now, whilst cooking this recipe, Rachel Khoo keeps saying it's not that easy on the nose.

0:18:27 > 0:18:29In fact, it's a bit whiffy.

0:18:29 > 0:18:32But they look fantastic.

0:18:32 > 0:18:36N is for nests, or, as they say in France, nids.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45Tartiflette is a dish which was created in the 1980s,

0:18:45 > 0:18:48by the Reblochon cheesemakers.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52Reblochon is a smelly French cheese.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57Yes, it's pretty smelly, but super yummy.

0:18:58 > 0:19:02You need about half a kilo of waxy potatoes.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04I'm going to julienne my potatoes,

0:19:04 > 0:19:08make them into little matchsticks on my mandolin.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12If you don't have a mandolin, you could slice it by hand.

0:19:15 > 0:19:19You can see... It looks a bit like a twig.

0:19:20 > 0:19:25I find that potatoes sliced on a mandolin make the best-shaped nests.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31Finely chop an onion.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33Whack them in the pan.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36Garlic.

0:19:36 > 0:19:39Smelly work, this.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41Smelly onions, smelly cheese, smelly garlic.

0:19:41 > 0:19:44But it makes for an extra tasty dish.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46Let's put this on the hob.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51I'm going to throw in a bay leaf too.

0:19:51 > 0:19:55While that starts cooking, I'm going to cut up my lardons.

0:19:59 > 0:20:04While that's sizzling away, I'll cut up my stinky Reblochon cheese.

0:20:04 > 0:20:08Look at that! Kind of squashy in the middle.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11Yum.

0:20:11 > 0:20:15You'll need 250g of Reblochon, which comes from the Alps.

0:20:15 > 0:20:19If you don't like Reblochon, you could use a Brie, Camembert.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21OK, that's the cheese done.

0:20:22 > 0:20:27I'm going to throw in 100ml of dry white wine.

0:20:27 > 0:20:31You want to cook that until there's about a tablespoon of liquid left.

0:20:34 > 0:20:38My wine's reduced down and I'm going to add my potatoes.

0:20:38 > 0:20:42I'm going to pour this into the bowl.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45And I've got to fish out the bay leaf.

0:20:45 > 0:20:49This is what you should do BEFORE you add the potatoes.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Ah, yes! Found you.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53OK, throw in the cheese.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55Look at all that cheese.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58You only live once. That's what they say.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01Give it a stir. Grab your tin.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03The tins are already buttered,

0:21:03 > 0:21:06so just load up each section.

0:21:06 > 0:21:10Overfill it, because it kind of shrinks a little bit.

0:21:11 > 0:21:13Might not be the prettiest of dishes

0:21:13 > 0:21:16but when it tastes this good, who cares?

0:21:16 > 0:21:19In the oven they go.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21And I'm going to clean up.

0:21:23 > 0:21:27After about 15 minutes, they'll be cooked.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31It smells certainly quite cheesy now.

0:21:31 > 0:21:35Let's have a look. Ooh, it's bubbling away.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38They look amazing. Oh, yummy.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41Good stuff. All right, I'm going to scoop one out.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43Scoop it all out.

0:21:44 > 0:21:47It's like heaven on a plate.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52So there's like the Reblochon cheese which has melted,

0:21:52 > 0:21:57smokey bacon flavour, bit of crunch from the potato on the top,

0:21:57 > 0:22:01but then it's all kind of soft and cooked in the middle.

0:22:01 > 0:22:03Delicious.

0:22:03 > 0:22:07What these little tartiflettes lack in looks, they make up for in taste.

0:22:07 > 0:22:10A delicious springtime lunch.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16'The N in this next dish comes from the recipe's place of origin,

0:22:16 > 0:22:19'the beautiful city of Naples.'

0:22:19 > 0:22:22'It's an absolute classic, cooked by those two Greedy Italians -

0:22:22 > 0:22:24'ragu a la Napoletana.'

0:22:29 > 0:22:33Ragu in Italy is like the Sunday roast in Britain.

0:22:34 > 0:22:38What are you doing here? Neopolitan ragu.

0:22:38 > 0:22:40The little sausages. Pork sausages,

0:22:40 > 0:22:45which I will cut it in quite large chunk.

0:22:48 > 0:22:51Then this is spare ribs, pork spare ribs,

0:22:51 > 0:22:54which I cut them in half.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58Be careful with your hands when you cut it.

0:22:58 > 0:23:02Then, here I have this fantastic beef,

0:23:02 > 0:23:04with a bit of fat inside as well.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06A bit of grease is nice, big fat which is good.

0:23:06 > 0:23:10And I'm going to cut it quite rough.

0:23:10 > 0:23:15This particular one you can make with any kind of cheap cut of meat.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18Cheapest meat you have, better taste,

0:23:18 > 0:23:20because there is a nice bit of fat inside.

0:23:20 > 0:23:23When it slowly, slowly cooks, it melts,

0:23:23 > 0:23:25giving such a flavour of the meat.

0:23:25 > 0:23:28And if there's too much fat on top, you can cook it out.

0:23:28 > 0:23:31Then I'm going to seal the meat.

0:23:31 > 0:23:35SIZZLING Let me explain what seal the meat is

0:23:35 > 0:23:39Seal the meat - what you do,

0:23:39 > 0:23:44you make sure that the meat is browned all outside,

0:23:44 > 0:23:46and then we'll cook.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49It actually seals outside,

0:23:49 > 0:23:54but slowly, slowly, when it actually cooks, release all the goodness from inside.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57May I stir the pasta, because it's overboiling?

0:23:57 > 0:24:00Let me seal it. May I keep an eye on it?

0:24:00 > 0:24:02Yeah, keep an eye on it.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05You have to be careful the shirt.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08Now what I want to do now, I want to put a bit of salt.

0:24:10 > 0:24:12Salt. Just a little pepper.

0:24:12 > 0:24:16Why do you put the salt now? Because I balance it better,

0:24:16 > 0:24:18to put them inside the salt.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21Then, bit of, uh, pepper.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23Double P, yeah.

0:24:23 > 0:24:27And now, while she's still cooking, I will put an onion.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30Stir the pasta properly. Yeah.

0:24:30 > 0:24:35Now, I chop onions... You see the onions are chopped very rough,

0:24:35 > 0:24:38cos it's going to cook for a couple of hours.

0:24:38 > 0:24:42Cooking for a couple of hours, so the onions almost melt,

0:24:42 > 0:24:45then you have them inside - make sure it's rough onions.

0:24:45 > 0:24:49I am hungry. It takes a couple of hours to do that.

0:24:49 > 0:24:51I'm going to have some wine inside.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Then, I need to now...

0:24:56 > 0:25:02..to evaporate this little bit of wine which is inside.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05So simple.

0:25:05 > 0:25:09You need now some... puree. Tomato puree.

0:25:09 > 0:25:13Then I will put some water inside.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15Nice bit of water.

0:25:15 > 0:25:19And now the alcohol... Yeah, it's gone.

0:25:19 > 0:25:23It's almost gone, so I stir this one nice and...

0:25:23 > 0:25:26But you have to make sure that you do stir it.

0:25:26 > 0:25:30Don't just put a big lump inside. Make sure you dilute it properly.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32Then you have them inside.

0:25:34 > 0:25:37Then you get three tins of nice tomatoes.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40It's all chopped up tomatoes, look.

0:25:40 > 0:25:44All goes in. Chunks as well, and juice. Chunks as well.

0:25:44 > 0:25:46This is going to cook for two hours.

0:25:46 > 0:25:52Last, we're going to give it a little bit of what we call garden flavour.

0:25:52 > 0:25:56So, get a nice handful of basil.

0:25:57 > 0:26:00Break it. Push them inside.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05And then you get... Lovely smell. Yeah, you can really smell.

0:26:05 > 0:26:10Then you get the pot. Here I've done one about two hours, two and a half hours ago.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13You ready, Antonio? Yeah, I'm ready. He can't wait. Look.

0:26:13 > 0:26:17And it's all bubble along. It looks very good, I must say.

0:26:22 > 0:26:26Then I'm going to put all the meat inside, everything melted.

0:26:26 > 0:26:30The meat becomes so tender. The sausages, of course.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33My goodness.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35Oh! Now I can put the pasta, then.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37Sure.

0:26:38 > 0:26:42Oh, why I'm cooking so good?!

0:26:42 > 0:26:46Why you don't wait that we taste it before you say that? Proper ragu.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50And a bit of meat. Just a second.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57It looks very good.

0:26:57 > 0:27:01Even the bone has gone so soft.

0:27:03 > 0:27:07Because it's two courses here. You have a starter, which is the pasta.

0:27:07 > 0:27:10Then all different cuts of meat, which you can have later.

0:27:10 > 0:27:12You can have a lovely salad.

0:27:12 > 0:27:16Little bit of juice and sauces, you can dip the bread inside.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20'Now, N is of course for nuts.'

0:27:20 > 0:27:26'Before we cook something delicious, Yottam Otolenghi investigates the great British walnut.'

0:27:29 > 0:27:32It's true that nuts normally grow in warmer climates,

0:27:32 > 0:27:36but cobnuts or walnuts do grow perfectly well in this country.

0:27:36 > 0:27:39They are nice when fresh. There's nothing like a fresh nut.

0:27:39 > 0:27:42It doesn't have the dustiness of the imported varieties.

0:27:42 > 0:27:47When I was growing up, my friend and I used to climb a neighbour's tree and get walnuts off it.

0:27:47 > 0:27:51Our hands used to turn completely brown, it was quite awful,

0:27:51 > 0:27:57but there's nothing like a fresh walnut when it comes off a tree and is in season.

0:27:57 > 0:28:01However, Britain's quietly forgotten the taste for its native nuts.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03'I want to help you rediscover their flavour,

0:28:03 > 0:28:06'so I'm taking a road trip around southern England,

0:28:06 > 0:28:10'to uncover an overlooked heritage, starting with British walnuts.'

0:28:10 > 0:28:14'Alan Olley has been growing them for over 30 years,

0:28:14 > 0:28:16'but how long have they been in Britain?'

0:28:16 > 0:28:18Well, supposedly the Romans brought them.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21There does appear to be evidence of this

0:28:21 > 0:28:26from shells having been found in excavations et cetera,

0:28:26 > 0:28:28and they probably came from Persia or that direction.

0:28:28 > 0:28:33Then, nothing much is known about them until the 16th-17th century,

0:28:33 > 0:28:37when most farmsteads had walnuts,

0:28:37 > 0:28:40and of course the big houses had them as well,

0:28:40 > 0:28:45but they were never grown commercially.

0:28:45 > 0:28:48'If you thought the only way to eat a walnut was the dry, husky thing

0:28:48 > 0:28:53'you get in a bag in a supermarket at Christmas, think again.'

0:28:53 > 0:28:56Alan, tell me a bit about the flavour of the walnuts.

0:28:56 > 0:28:59There are basically three stages of picking them.

0:28:59 > 0:29:03You can pick them green and use them for pickling... Yes.

0:29:03 > 0:29:08And the next stage? Next would be wet walnut, straight off the tree,

0:29:08 > 0:29:10when they're ripe, but not dried.

0:29:10 > 0:29:16The wet walnut is sweet and juicy and fruity. Yes. I remember eating those when I was growing up.

0:29:16 > 0:29:19You pick it up off the tree and it's so delicious. Yup.

0:29:19 > 0:29:23You've got to peel the skin off. It's like a party in the mouth.

0:29:23 > 0:29:26Tell me about the next stage, when they're completely dry?

0:29:26 > 0:29:30Completely dry, yes. Well, it's difficult to describe, really.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32It's a... a nice, nutty flavour.

0:29:32 > 0:29:36And it's quite complex compared to other nuts. Yes.

0:29:36 > 0:29:40I find there's a lot going on. Yup. With those nuts.

0:29:40 > 0:29:47It seems like most of the nuts that we consume in this country come from abroad.

0:29:47 > 0:29:49Yes, California, mainly. California.

0:29:49 > 0:29:52So there seems to be a commercial market.

0:29:52 > 0:29:57Is there a future for growing nuts here for use? Oh, yes, I think so,

0:29:57 > 0:30:02now that it's warming up a bit here, definitely there will be a future.

0:30:04 > 0:30:10'So there used to be lots of wonderful walnut trees around, but they were never commercially grown.'

0:30:10 > 0:30:13'But according to Alan, they could be, and guess what?'

0:30:13 > 0:30:18'There's demand for them, especially in the form of a peculiarly British product.'

0:30:19 > 0:30:23'Pickled walnuts were a totally new British delicacy to me

0:30:23 > 0:30:25'when I moved over from Israel.'

0:30:25 > 0:30:27'I'd never seen them before.'

0:30:27 > 0:30:30'Created in the 1800s, they were so popular,

0:30:30 > 0:30:35'even Victorian domestic goddess, Mrs Beeton, told her readers how to preserve their homegrown walnuts.'

0:30:35 > 0:30:41'I've come to see a family company that's got into a real pickle with walnuts.'

0:30:41 > 0:30:44Pickled walnuts is a very British eccentricity, isn't it?

0:30:44 > 0:30:48When does it start? It's mentioned in the Pickwick Papers.

0:30:48 > 0:30:52And it was essentially a Victorian product.

0:30:53 > 0:30:56The Victorians used to do home pickling.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59They harvested the walnuts in June and July,

0:30:59 > 0:31:02they put them in jars, and were used at Christmas.

0:31:02 > 0:31:06They're generally used on Boxing Day with the cold turkey

0:31:06 > 0:31:08and other salad products.

0:31:08 > 0:31:12But we do have a market throughout the rest of the year,

0:31:12 > 0:31:14and all the supermarkets will have them throughout the year.

0:31:14 > 0:31:18I think it's fascinating. I know a lot about pickling cucumbers,

0:31:18 > 0:31:24I know about pickling other vegetables, cauliflower, turnip, beetroot.

0:31:24 > 0:31:28How do you pickle walnuts? We take them and trim them,

0:31:28 > 0:31:31where we look for shells or any defects.

0:31:31 > 0:31:35We steam them, we put them in tanks, to reduce the salt level.

0:31:35 > 0:31:40And we pack them into jars and then vinegar is applied,

0:31:40 > 0:31:44and then they're capped and pasteurised and labelled.

0:31:44 > 0:31:48It's the most wonderful condiment, cos they are sharp and nutty,

0:31:48 > 0:31:54so I can see it with something fatty, like a blue cheese, Stilton,

0:31:54 > 0:31:58Stilton. I can see how the sharpness cuts into that fatness.

0:31:58 > 0:32:01Would you just take one and pop it into your mouth?

0:32:01 > 0:32:05You can, if they're small enough, but it's best to cut it into four.

0:32:05 > 0:32:08HE GROANS Where do your walnuts come from?

0:32:08 > 0:32:12Most of them come from France and some from Italy.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15But there is some UK production now.

0:32:15 > 0:32:21Obviously, if we can improve the UK production, that's good.

0:32:22 > 0:32:27This is fascinating. I've just walked out of a factory that makes a product that is essentially British.

0:32:27 > 0:32:31It's pickled walnuts. It can't get any more British than that.

0:32:31 > 0:32:37But only a minority of the walnuts that are used in this factory are locally grown.

0:32:37 > 0:32:42We are in the heart of Kent, an ideal climate for nuts in general,

0:32:42 > 0:32:45and walnuts, and most of them actually come from France.

0:32:45 > 0:32:47It's a real shame.

0:32:48 > 0:32:52'Thanks, Yottam. And now for a sweet nut dish.'

0:32:52 > 0:32:54'Pecan is our nut of choice

0:32:54 > 0:32:59'and Levi Roots hopes to bowl us over with his brilliant brownies.'

0:33:01 > 0:33:04I'm teaming up with a group of local sportsmen,

0:33:04 > 0:33:08'to show Yorkshire folk how to bring sunshine cookery into their lives.'

0:33:09 > 0:33:13'Yep! I am the newest signing at the Leeds Caribbean Cricket Club.'

0:33:14 > 0:33:18'Umpire Glen English set up the club 60 years ago

0:33:18 > 0:33:22'and remembers it creating a stir at the stumps and in the kitchen.'

0:33:22 > 0:33:27Sunday matches were great, because we used to meet the local people.

0:33:27 > 0:33:33The youngsters used to run round asking if we were members of the Caribbean team.

0:33:33 > 0:33:37They used to say "Are you Mr Sobers?" THEY LAUGH

0:33:37 > 0:33:42It's not all been about cricket, because the food here is something..

0:33:42 > 0:33:46Well, this developed as we got older and people began...

0:33:46 > 0:33:50There started to be restaurants around selling West Indian food.

0:33:50 > 0:33:54The visitors, the first thing they want is rice and peas and chicken.

0:33:54 > 0:33:59And they used to put their orders in straightaway.

0:34:04 > 0:34:11'Well, I might not get mistaken for West Indian cricketing legend Gary Sobers, but I can cook.'

0:34:11 > 0:34:17'And I'm going to blow the opposing team away with a sunshine version of the traditional cricket tea.'

0:34:18 > 0:34:21I'm going to cook a fantastic Caribbean treat -

0:34:21 > 0:34:24my ginger, pecan and rum chocolate brownies.

0:34:24 > 0:34:27It's a tropical makeover for this king of cakes.

0:34:27 > 0:34:30Pecan nuts and ginger add texture and bite,

0:34:30 > 0:34:36balanced by the sweet heat of Jamaican rum - optional, of course.k

0:34:36 > 0:34:40This is such a great cake to make. 15 minutes and it's in the oven.

0:34:40 > 0:34:42No worries.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46First, I've got plain, dark chocolate

0:34:46 > 0:34:50and I'm going to mix that with 250g of butter.

0:34:51 > 0:34:55I'm going to melt these two together over gently simmering water.

0:34:57 > 0:35:01In this big bowl, I'm going to mix dark muscovado sugar and five eggs.

0:35:06 > 0:35:10Cricket was such a big thing for me in the Caribbean when I was a boy.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12We listened to it on the radio all the time

0:35:12 > 0:35:15and all my role models were cricketers.

0:35:19 > 0:35:22I'm mixing my eggs and sugar together,

0:35:22 > 0:35:25beating lots of air into it.

0:35:25 > 0:35:28And at the end, it should be thick and creamy.

0:35:31 > 0:35:35'Put your mix to one side, while you chop up the chewy bits.'

0:35:36 > 0:35:40'The pecan nuts will bring a toffee-like taste.'

0:35:40 > 0:35:43'And stem ginger adds crunch and heat.'

0:35:44 > 0:35:47So easy, isn't it? Just pour that in there.

0:35:47 > 0:35:50'And you're ready to put it all together.'

0:35:50 > 0:35:54'Pour your melted chocolate and butter into the eggs and sugar.'

0:35:54 > 0:35:57'Then 150g of plain flour into the lot.'

0:35:57 > 0:36:00It's important to fold it in.

0:36:02 > 0:36:05Smell that lovely chocolate flavour coming through.

0:36:05 > 0:36:09Next, my pecan and the ginger.

0:36:12 > 0:36:16And now, for my final special ingredient, my rum.

0:36:18 > 0:36:21'Pour every last dollop into a brownie tin.'

0:36:21 > 0:36:23Get it all in there. Everything.

0:36:24 > 0:36:28'And bang in the oven to bake at 180 degrees,

0:36:28 > 0:36:30'for 25 minutes.'

0:36:30 > 0:36:32MUSIC: "I can see clearly now"

0:36:32 > 0:36:37# I can see clearly now the rain has gone

0:36:40 > 0:36:45# I can see all obstacles in my way

0:36:45 > 0:36:47Man! That smells absolutely fantastic.

0:36:48 > 0:36:50'Dusted with icing sugar,

0:36:50 > 0:36:53'the ginger, pecan and rum brownies are the trophies

0:36:53 > 0:36:55'in my Caribbean high tea.'

0:36:55 > 0:36:57# Bright, bright

0:36:57 > 0:36:59# Sunshiney day #

0:36:59 > 0:37:04'We've just got time for one more pudding, courtesy of Raymond Blanc.'

0:37:04 > 0:37:06'Here he is, with his greengage nougatine.'

0:37:06 > 0:37:09I've done a mistake. Can you give me another tray like that?

0:37:09 > 0:37:13'To finish, one of Raymond's signature desserts.'

0:37:13 > 0:37:17Desserts are fun. That's the only part in the whole meal,

0:37:17 > 0:37:19where as a chef, as a cook, you can have fun.

0:37:19 > 0:37:23You cannot do that with a starter or main, you've got to be very serious.

0:37:23 > 0:37:27'An edible bowl, made from almond and caramel nougatine,

0:37:27 > 0:37:29'filled with greengage compote,

0:37:29 > 0:37:33'poached meringues and a sabayon cream.'

0:37:35 > 0:37:37It is not the simplest dessert I've ever done,

0:37:37 > 0:37:41but it's worth the effort and you must try it at home.

0:37:41 > 0:37:44First step is to make your nougatine.

0:37:45 > 0:37:48'Add roasted almond flakes to caramelised sugar,

0:37:48 > 0:37:50'and spread on greaseproof paper to set.'

0:37:50 > 0:37:55The next stage, to break it down, into that machine, into a powder.

0:37:55 > 0:37:57Break it in pieces here.

0:37:57 > 0:38:00Oh, that's going to be very noisy.

0:38:01 > 0:38:03Hugely noisy.

0:38:06 > 0:38:10So I want to break it down to a fine powder, south of France kind of sand

0:38:10 > 0:38:13OK, just very, very fine.

0:38:14 > 0:38:19'Sieve onto a silicone baking mat, which you can buy in cookery shops.'

0:38:19 > 0:38:23You want about a good millimetre of thickness.

0:38:24 > 0:38:28So, of course, if you have a minion in your kitchen,...

0:38:28 > 0:38:31It's a joke! It's a joke. HE LAUGHS

0:38:31 > 0:38:35It's a very bad joke. The French don't have any sense of humour.

0:38:37 > 0:38:40You know that?

0:38:40 > 0:38:45'Put the ground nougatine in the oven for four minutes at 160 degrees centigrade.'

0:38:45 > 0:38:47Thank you, Adam. OK, chef.

0:38:55 > 0:38:57Is it ready or not?

0:38:58 > 0:39:01Yeah, I'd say... No. No? It's not ready.

0:39:01 > 0:39:07What you're looking for is completely shiny... and you know the caramel has melted down.

0:39:07 > 0:39:10And the best way is a tiny little bubble.

0:39:10 > 0:39:13Don't be impatient. Wait. Wait.

0:39:14 > 0:39:18'To shape the nougatine, Raymond uses a metal ring,

0:39:18 > 0:39:20'a bowl and a ladle.'

0:39:20 > 0:39:22So I want to cut a shape of nougatine,

0:39:22 > 0:39:25then press it over this.

0:39:26 > 0:39:31'When the nougatine is blond in colour, leave it to cool until it's hard enough to cut.'

0:39:31 > 0:39:35If it's too hot, it's going to be sticky,

0:39:35 > 0:39:38you're going to drag the caramel around.

0:39:38 > 0:39:41If it's too dry, too cool, it's too brittle -

0:39:41 > 0:39:44that means it's not supple, you cannot work it.

0:39:47 > 0:39:49It makes a lovely little noise when it's ready,

0:39:49 > 0:39:53a lovely little noise of crunchy...

0:39:54 > 0:39:57Actually, I should wear my glasses.

0:39:58 > 0:40:02Ah, that's better! I was missing my round, my circle. Doesn't matter.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07Voila.

0:40:10 > 0:40:13Here's my little handles.

0:40:14 > 0:40:16Tres bien. So you warm them up.

0:40:17 > 0:40:22'Heat the shapes in the oven for two minutes, until soft enough to mould'

0:40:22 > 0:40:26So now, you've got a hot cassolette. You must move quite fast now.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28'Start with the base.'

0:40:29 > 0:40:33You can see it's cooling down already.

0:40:33 > 0:40:37So if you're not fast enough, you end up with something quite funny.

0:40:37 > 0:40:38Voila.

0:40:39 > 0:40:41Voila.

0:40:41 > 0:40:45You can actually see through. And that's the joy of this dessert.

0:40:45 > 0:40:46Voila.

0:40:46 > 0:40:49Now the lid.

0:40:49 > 0:40:53You've got a stick of caramel here. You're going to stick the handles.

0:40:54 > 0:40:58'Melt a piece of caramel to weld the pieces together.'

0:40:59 > 0:41:01Voila.

0:41:02 > 0:41:06That's all, but you can use nougatine as well.

0:41:07 > 0:41:10This is so fragile, this is so beautiful.

0:41:10 > 0:41:14That's fine, so all we need to do is put something in it. Lovely.

0:41:14 > 0:41:18'For the filling, make a seasonal fruit compote.'

0:41:18 > 0:41:20'Raymond's using greengages.'

0:41:20 > 0:41:23They have lots of wonderful sugar, wonderful flavour.

0:41:23 > 0:41:2510 gram of sugar.

0:41:26 > 0:41:30I'll put a bit of ascorbic acid, vitamin C, to prevent oxidation.

0:41:30 > 0:41:35Lemon juice. My spoons, which my lovely Adam has prepared for me.

0:41:36 > 0:41:39Men don't like sentiments.

0:41:40 > 0:41:44'In a pan, caramelise some sugar and add a knob of butter.'

0:41:44 > 0:41:46That much, no more.

0:41:47 > 0:41:49Slowly, now. Slowly.

0:41:49 > 0:41:52About 12-15 minutes. Slowly.

0:41:52 > 0:41:55Top on. Boom.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03They go directly into the blender.

0:42:03 > 0:42:07'Puree some of the compote to make a coulis to decorate the plate.'

0:42:10 > 0:42:12Voila.

0:42:12 > 0:42:17It has some little bits inside, but we are at home, OK, between friends.

0:42:18 > 0:42:19Place...

0:42:21 > 0:42:23Just put in...

0:42:23 > 0:42:26They're barely warm. If too hot, they'd go through the nougatine.

0:42:26 > 0:42:30These are little poached meringues. The same as the floating island.

0:42:31 > 0:42:33Voila. This morning's sabayon.

0:42:37 > 0:42:40Pistachio. Crunchy almonds.

0:42:41 > 0:42:43Voila. Simple.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54Break it!

0:42:54 > 0:42:56Chew it! Voila.

0:42:56 > 0:43:00That's the way to do it. I can see the gourmand here.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02First, is it enjoyable? Very good.

0:43:02 > 0:43:06What do you mean, "Very good"? Very, very good, or... very good.

0:43:06 > 0:43:09Very good. Rate, one out of ten? Ten.

0:43:09 > 0:43:11You're smart, you.

0:43:12 > 0:43:14You're a smart guy.

0:43:16 > 0:43:19That's all the cooking we've got time for today.

0:43:19 > 0:43:22A big thank you to all our wonderful chefs.

0:43:22 > 0:43:26And please join me again for more magical cookery moments,

0:43:26 > 0:43:28here on The A-Z of TV Cooking.
