Who is your favourite TV cook?

Mine is Nigel Slater - his 'Simple Suppers' is very down to earth. The best episode was when he put in far too much chilli and his eyes were watering. He simply commented [not verbatim], 'that was a bit hot.' You could almost hear the TV crew laughing.

  • Keith Floyd was my favourite too, I learnt so much from watching him, all the stuff about layering flavours and why to do things, not just blindly following instructions.

    I like Raymond Blanc too, he's always so funny and a bit happless with gadgets forgetting to plug them in and stuff.

    I watch things like Masterchef and Bake Off, but other wise there seems to be a bit of a dearth of cookery programs, they all seem to be doing to same stuff with the same ingredients that I either don't like, don't eat or can't get hold of.
