Food & Drink - Season 3

Chef and pub landlord Tom Kerridge plays host to Britain's best cooks and chefs in a series highlighting all that is excellent in food and drink.

Tom challenges the Hairy Bikers to come up with a speedy meal to rival his hearty and wholesome sausage and bean casserole. Their baked salmon and posh eggy bread gives Tom a run for his money, and drinks expert Joe Wadsack surprises them all with his wine matches. Sandwiches are the ultimate fast food and a staple of the British diet. In afternoon tea, they're elevated to an art form. Arabella Weir goes behind the scenes at one of London's poshest hotels to discover the secret to making the perfect sandwich and taste-tests the ultimate £200 sarnie.

Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge is joined in the kitchen by MasterChef judge Monica Galetti - a chef who knows how to get maximum flavour with minimal fuss. They go head to head to come up with the best simple but spectacular recipe.

Monica's perfectly tender, honey-glazed chicken versus Tom's simple but sophisticated celery soup with poached egg and soda bread. Drinks expert Joe Wadsack taste tests the big daddy of booze-free drinks before we find out who has made the simplest but most delicious dish.

Forget your pilaffs and paellas - this edition is all about the best of British food. Tom is joined by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall - a passionate champion of British dishes. He cooks a classic roast chicken to go up against Tom's stew and dumplings. Oliver Peyton puts cured meats from Blighty under the spotlight, and drinks expert Joe Wadsack tastes a wine made in London, before we find out whether Tom's stew or Hugh's chicken is the best British dish.

Michelin-starred pub landlord Tom Kerridge is joined by Irish chef Richard Corrigan to go head to head and produce the best dish made from the unsung heroes of the British larder. Richard is a big fan of one of our least loved ingredients - offal. He has a job to do to persuade Tom that kidneys are ever worth the effort, while Tom cooks with one of our most ignored fish - hake - which he pairs with a button mushroom sauce. Drinks expert Joe Wadsack brings a German red wine to the table, and Arabella Weir gets the inside track on how a good kitchen knife should last a lifetime.

Michelin-starred chef and pub landlord Tom Kerridge is joined by Italian chef and restaurateur Angela Hartnett in an episode about how to make delicious, top-notch food on a budget. Angela brings along her dog Alfie for moral support in her cook-off with Tom to create the best value-for-money dish - her vanilla custard tart versus his beef and blue cheese risotto. Oliver Peyton discovers how to spice up his life on the cheap, Kimberley Wilson lifts the lid on how to make great grub out of waste food and drinks expert Joe Wadsack blows Tom away with his budget-busting wine matches.

Michelin-starred chef and pub landlord Tom Kerridge reveals how to reach the heady heights of happiness through healthy food. Award-winning Indian chef and one half of the Incredible Spice Men, Cyrus Todiwala joins Tom in the kitchen and is challenged to come up with an alternative take on a gut-busting curry to rival Tom's macho spice-crusted tuna salad. Self-confessed salad-dodger Arabella Weir tries her hardest to fall in love with lettuce, and drinks expert Joe Wadsack plays a blinder with his tips for healthy red wine before we discover which dish delivers the most health and happiness on a plate.

Michelin-starred chef and pub landlord Tom Kerridge challenges celebrated cook Ching He Huang to rustle up the perfect party food. Ching's chicken and mushroom pies and spicy salmon rice balls compete with Tom's chicken nuggets and carrot and pistachio baklava.

Drinks expert Joe Wadsack has some unusual drinks suggestions that would be a hit at any party, Oliver Peyton dons a lab coat to taste the ice cream of the future and Kimberley Wilson seeks out the meatheads at Europe's biggest barbeque festival.

Tom Kerridge is joined by fellow two-Michelin-starred chef Daniel Clifford in a head-to-head challenge to come up with their take on a luxury dish. Tom's toffee-coffee choux bun is a classic luxury desert, and Daniel makes a simple but sophisticated smoked haddock with Iberico ham and beurre blanc.

Drinks expert Joe Wadsack brings a white Rioja and an Australian dessert wine to the table, and Arabella Weir is taught how to make an upmarket chocolate treat by a British master patissier and chocolatier at the top of his game.

Tom Kerridge is joined by fellow Michelin-starred chef Raymond Blanc to cook two dishes using ingredients that have fallen out of flavour. Raymond recreates a favourite souffle from his childhood using semolina and heritage apples to rival Tom's old-fashioned mutton chops with cabbage and turnip gratin. Oliver Peyton gets the inside track on a distilling revival that's happening right under our noses, and drinks expert Joe Wadsack is pipped to the post when Raymond brings his own drinks match to the table!

Double Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge challenges fellow chef Glynn Purnell to create a brand new recipe from scratch to go up against his own new creation. Each chef has a set of rules to work by and from recipe slaves to those who make it up as they go along, by the end of the show everyone will know the secrets to cooking spectacular food from scratch.

Drinks expert Joe Wadsack persuades Tom and Glynn to be open-minded and try some wine from a surprising source and Arabella Weir meets a man who puts chefs to shame when it comes to experimenting with flavour.
