Most experts and other self-styled critics blame TV for tearing the modern family apart. But one of the ways that my family relax and come together is by watching TV - and not just any TV mind you: music game shows and cooking shows. Seriously!
Usually on watching cooking shows, you might find some inspiration but you'll find some excuse not to recreate the masterpiece on-screen - source of ingredients or equipment, seems like too much effort, lack of training - people will find excuses for pretty much anything. Which is why we watch (in particular) the shows of Jamie Oliver and Nigella Lawson - my personal cooking heroes.
This past weekend we indulged in the adventures of 'Jamie in Britain'. His exploration of how foreigners have influenced and contributed to 'classic' British dishes - culminating in the Jamie's Great Britain cookbook. Now, I'm not going to give away any spoilers - you are more than capable of tracking down the book and show yourself. What I will be doing is taking things a little bit further by adding my personal touch on what I remember of his recipes and see what I come up with.
Stay tuned for some Jamie inspired experiments
