West Suffolk

In the fields of west Suffolk Cyrus and Tony extoll the virtues of rapeseed oil. They then use it to cook Cinnamon, Ginger & Red Chilli Chicken Wings. At the beautiful stately home, Melford Hall, in Long Melford, Tony and Cyrus persuade the National Trust to allow them to spice up their traditional afternoon tea. The Trust provides the basic ingredients for cucumber sandwiches and Victoria sponge which Tony and Cyrus transform, adding a salt and chilli blend to the cucumbers and a delicious fennel and orange butter cream to the Victoria sponge. Forty sceptical members of the local Women's Institute turn up for tea. The green fields of West Suffolk are dotted with ruby-coloured cows, the traditional Suffolk breed, Red Poll. Tony and Cyrus meet Denise Thomas, from Lavenham Brook Farm, who tend a herd of Red Polls and learn that the slow-growing grass-fed herd produce wonderful meat and milk. Next an exercise in painting with spices.
