I hate making TV documentaries.

I love roasting because you can give it love, get it in the oven and go and play with the kids or whatever you've got to do, and then hours later you've got a lovely dinner.

I hate making TV documentaries.

I never get tired of talking about food. I do getting tired of fighting governments when they are so clearly not putting the best interest of the children forward.

Just because the Americans are so good at rattling out accessible and cheap junk food, nobody looks twice when it comes to their food. But there are golden nuggets everywhere.

I think authenticity is important whichever homeland you're from but one of the lovely things about British cooking is that we adopt great food and dishes from all of the lovely people who come from overseas to live in our country. We're a magpie nation - we take the best bits of other cuisines and embrace them as our own.

I've made a few nice dishes in my time, but this must be the best I've ever made.
