BBC Two - Indian Food Made Easy, Series 1, Episode 6

Anjum Anand catches up with those featured in the series.

Anjum Anand hosts a party to see how people in the series have got on with their new cooking skills. Dishes include spiced roast leg of lamb, peshwari naan and mushroom pilaff.

Anjum Anand sees how well all the people in the previous episodes have got on with their new found cooking skills by holding a party in her garden. The catch - they all have to make an Indian dish for the others to try. 

First of all Anjum must prepare her contribution - a glorious spiced roast leg of lamb, commonly known in India as a raan. To get the best meat available she visits a top Halal butchers in South London, and gets to know her goat from her lamb.

Then she starts to re-visit her Indian food novices: good friend Alex is going to cook a classic side dish of paneer with spinach; glamorous Panthea is going to try her hand at a creamy raita; head chef Elisha from the health spa is going to whip up a fabulous mushroom pilaff, and Paul the firefighter is going to try and get to grips with peshwari naan.

With the sun finally coming out, and cocktail expert Ben Reed getting the party-goers in the mood, it is time for Anjum and the guests to see how they've all got on.
