Mairi shows us her recipe for the perfect macaroni cheese covered in crispy bacon and breadcrumbs, and she shows us how to make rhubarb crumble, the ultimate comfort food pudding.

But comfort food doesn't always have to mean a well-known recipe followed by the book. In Skye Mairi meets two fantastic cooks who have put their own spin on traditional comfort foods. They show her the perfect rice pudding spiced up with just a grating of nutmeg and a crunchy caramelised sugar topping, and a delicious, zesty bread and a butter pudding using panettone slathered with marmalade.
