Anjum's Australian Spice Stories - Season 1

Season 1

Episodes

Getting Started
Anjum gives us a lesson in essential Indian spices, putting them to use in a ginger masala chai that she cooks over an open flame in the countryside. She also spices up some proper punjabi samosas, shows us the secrets to tandoori style chicken and infuses a simple yoghurt dessert with a delicate saffron fragrance.

Street Food
Anjum hits the bustling night markets of Melbourne to sample the delicious hawker-style food before returning to the kitchen to showcase her favourite Indian street foods.

The Picnic
In this episode Anjum decides to create some holiday memories for her family by putting an Indian spin on a classic picnic. Kicking off with a traditional homemade Indian cheese known as paneer, she also makes a delicious five-seeded potato salad and some spicy salmon parcels cooked outdoors.

Comfort Food
It's cold outside so Anjum shows us how to warm our souls with her take on Indian comfort food. From a rich lamb bhuna to a spicy baked spinach ricotta to her kids' favourite, Indian-inspired jaffles... perfect for that winter night in front of the fire.

Coastal Cooking
Anjum conjures up flavours of the Indian coast with a coconut beef stir-fry, Malayali fish curry and spice-infused glazed pineapple.

Indian Flavours
From garlic, red chilli and tomato chutney to proper date and tamarind chutney, in this episode Anjum shows us the secret to her favourite Indian chutneys and how they can add instant flavour to an Indian dish.

Light and Healthy
Determined to break the myth that Indian food is heavy and indulgent, Anjum sets out to show us the light and healthy side of Indian cuisine with a South-Indian haddock and corn chowder and a shikanji granita to wow the girls!

Indian Tapas
There's not a curry in sight when Anjum serves up a selection of contemporary, bite-sized Indian snacks that both look and taste delicious. From Goan prawn and coconut cakes to salmon roe and avocado pani puri, this it the ultimate menu for entertaining guests.

A Day in the Life...
Anjum takes us through a day in her life – one meal at a time. She kick-starts the day with a masala omelette, followed by a barbecue in the Australian countryside where she grills a hearty vegetarian lunch of spice-roasted butternut squash. For dinner it's roast chicken, Indian-style, and for dessert a family favourite, semolina halva.

Traditional Favourites
While Anjum loves to put a modern twist on Indian cuisine, she is also passionate about holding onto those traditional favourites. In this episode she shares her Mum's beloved punjabi chicken curry recipe and shows us how easy it is to whip up homemade paratha. Anjum even her kids get involved when it comes to rolling out the sweet Indian treat gulab jamun.

Anjum's Twist
Anjum puts an Indian twist on some much-loved English and Australian favourites with her inspired take on a meat pie and fish and chips.

The Final Banquet
Anjum finishes off her Australian holiday with a bang seeking out the perfect produce for the ultimate outdoor banquet for family and friends.

The Answers
Based on Catherine Lacey's novel of the same name, The Answers is set in the near future, where a heartbroken young woman joins an enigmatic experiment that promises to hack love, but after moving into an idyllic, secluded location with her fellow female participants, she and the other women start questioning what's really happening in the experiment, and why they've all been tasked with dating the same mysterious man.

EastEnders
Set in the East End of London, the show focuses on the tensions between love and family with stories ranging from hard-hitting social issues, to personal, human tragedies. And there's plenty of funny moments too.
Classic characters old and new across thousands of episodes have shared a drink in The Queen Vic, shed tears of despair or joy, sat on Arthur's bench in the Square... and at some point or other they probably crossed paths with Ian Beale.

Rick and Morty
Rick is a mentally gifted, but sociopathic and alcoholic scientist and a grandfather to Morty; an awkward, impressionable, and somewhat spineless teenage boy. Rick moves into the family home of Morty, where he immediately becomes a bad influence.

Bookish
London, 1946 is the dynamic, dangerous and chaotic setting for this stylish new detective drama, with the eccentric Gabriel Book at the very heart of the story: a self-appointed consultant detective to the local police. The thousands of books that line the shelves of his shop provide him with all the knowledge he needs.
Book has gathered around him a host of lovable, damaged misfits whom he informally protects, cajoles, and mentors. His wife Trottie runs the wallpaper shop next door. She's a charismatic adventuress whom Book loves deeply but not physically, for they are in a 'lavender' marriage to help conceal Book's sexual orientation in a time when it was illegal to be gay.
Bookish marries post-war nostalgia with the reckless and life-affirming atmosphere of the times, creating a fast-paced and stylish detective drama.

Bergerac
Bergerac is based on the original series created by Robert Banks Stewart, which starred John Nettles and ran for nine series on the BBC between 1981 and 1991. The modern re-imagining will honour the iconic detective drama, but with a contemporary twist. Unlike the original hit from the 80s, the new series will see one character-led murder mystery run across all six episodes, in place of a new storyline each episode.
Viewers will meet Jim Bergerac as a broken man, grappling with grief and alcoholism following his wife's recent death. His mother-in-law, Charlie, is concerned Jim isn't putting his daughter Kim first and, when a woman from a wealthy Jersey family is murdered, Jim must fight through his personal struggles to become the formidable investigator he once was.
With a troublesome convict resurfacing from his past, Bergerac is required to call on his sharp investigative instincts and past successes to navigate the intricate family dynamics, and watchful eyes of the police force, in order to solve the case.
