Mary Makes It Easy

The queen of baking meets the king of the dance floor, Anton Du Beke. Anton is a total novice when it comes to cooking but wants to learn so he can make food for the family. So far, the only thing he can make is eggs, and Mary is certain he can expand his repertoire.

The pair are meeting in sunny Bournemouth on a rare down-day from Anton's tour. He's performed here hundreds of times but never gets a chance to enjoy all this seaside town has to offer. Mary has some fun planned for them both, and of course some recipes to teach him that show just how simple cooking scrumptious food can be: crispy squid, smoked salmon linguine, beef cannelloni, chicken escalope and apricot Portuguese tarts.

Mary surprises Lorraine Kelly on the set of her show to teach her and daughter Rosie some delicious time-saving recipes, including a fragrant Thai-style beef stir-fry and sea bream with samphire.

Mary joins AJ Odudu on a beautiful local allotment to teach her the joy of stress-free cooking. AJ tries her hand at a luscious tiger prawn courgetti and a rich aubergine bhuna.

Mary joins Michael Ball on stage in the West End to teach him some new and exciting recipes - ideal for a keen cook who wants to be a little more adventurous.
