Tom Kerridge's Proper Pub Food

Episode 3: Celebratory Food

Duration: 29 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Two HDLatest broadcast: on BBC Two HD

Tom Kerridge, famed for cooking food that has won him two Michelin stars in his own pub, shows how to cook dishes inspired by food you would order in a decent British pub to celebrate a special occasion. These dishes are slightly showy, decadent and indulgent, yet still really simple to make.

There is an elegant starter of asparagus served with Tom's ultimate salad dressing made with duck egg yolks for extra richness. For a fancy alternative to your usual roast dinner, Tom shows how to cook the perfect slow roast duck with delicious aromatic crispy skin. Served up with his potato pancakes and braised lettuce, this makes a real show-stopping meal.

Tom heads to Whitstable, famous for its oysters, and teams up with Stephen Harris who serves exceptional food at his famed pub The Sportsman. Together they collect seaweed from the local beach and Tom whips up a seaweed mayonnaise which he uses as a dip for some deep-fried oyster fritters - a great celebratory starter or appetiser.

If you are looking to impress with a romantic meal for two, Tom's spiced monkfish with smoked aubergine puree is one that is sure to get you in the good books. And for a boozy but refreshing dessert, Tom's gin and tonic granita is a great way to finish off a celebratory meal. To find the right gin Tom embarks on a tasting session at London's Ginstitute where he is more than happy to taste their vast array of flavours and learn more about his favourite spirit. Show less
