The Hairy Bikers: Mums Know Best

The Hairy Bikers: Mums Know Best

Alfresco (2x3)


:

Nothing connects you to home like the smell of the food your mum used to cook, so the Hairy Bikers visit three mums to share their unique taste of home. The Bikers go in search of three mums who love cooking and eating outdoors. Rebecca's Spanish family recipes are perfect for an al fresco feast - tapas - and her tortilla, garlic prawns and meatballs don't disappoint. Lots of European countries have an outdoor eating culture, so the Bikers visit brother and sister Karl and Marika, whose Hungarian roots provide inspiration for huge family picnics. The third mum, Jayne, is a pudding queen, bringing the taste of the outdoors inside with vivid fruit flavours. Along the way, the bikers rustle up old-fashioned potted beef and potted salmon - the perfect food to eat while you are messing about in boats. At the Bikers' recipe fair they cook minced beef pinwheels, and food historian Gerard Baker sets the boys and three visitors a skills challenge - sushi rolling. After all that hard work, the perfect foodie day closes with a classic al fresco banquet.
