Episode 1

In the first episode, Nigella begins with her take on bhorta, a dish of fried and mashed vegetables mainly associated with Bangladesh, to which she introduces a very British - but very familiar - ingredient. After creating a warm, spicy and aromatic dish of lamb shanks with wide noodles, Nigella uses very ripe bananas to make a rich and gooey chocolate tahini pudding, and then goes on to create a warming curry with a surprising ingredient.
