Jamie Cooks Spring: Humax TV Tonight

Jamie Cooks Spring, tonight at 8pm on Channel 4

In this new series, Jamie Oliver takes us through the year, celebrating the gorgeous ingredients and what we can make with them as they come into season in the UK. He takes us on a delicious journey through the kitchen calendar, celebrating weird, wonderful, beautiful and wonky produce with inspiring recipes for when they're at their best - helping us to eat well for ourselves and the planet.

This series is a celebration of sustainable, seasonal produce and the re-awakening of the kitchen garden after winter, with the freshest new fruit and veg ready for picking and cooking.

In this week’s episode, Jamie rounds up the glorious spring offerings by planting some spuds for summer, then cooks up some Jersey Royal potatoes dressed in a wild garlic pesto served with a beautiful stuffed salmon, a proper celebration supper.

He makes a super-simple broad bean mezze, rustles up a beautiful lunch for himself and Jools using the freshest spring lettuces, served in a Roquefort cheese and crouton salad alongside a spatchcocked roast chicken. Jamie finishes it all off with a spectacular rhubarb and custard tart, with almond pastry and almond brittle on top, the perfect dessert for any springtime occasion.
