Episode 5

BBC Two - Simply Nigella, Episode 5

Recipes include a chicken shawarma and a liquorice and blackcurrant chocolate cake.

Part of the balance of life lies in understanding that different days require different types of eating, so Nigella Lawson shares a menu to help get that balance in the kitchen.

As Nigella says, 'Part of the balance of life lies in understanding that different days require different types of eating'. So in this episode, Nigella shares her favourite menu to help get that balance in the kitchen. 

For the days when something light and luscious is needed, Nigella's salad of salmon, avocado, watercress and pumpkin seeds fits perfectly. 

For the occasions that call for something a bit different, there is Nigella's chicken shawarma with an array of spices, sauces and flatbreads. Inspired by a spit-roasted Lebanese kebab, Nigella's oven-roasted version is fun, tasty and prefect for feeding a crowd. 

There has to be chocolate in the balance and Nigella shares two of her latest treats - a glossy liquorice and blackcurrant chocolate cake and her chocolate chip cookie dough pots - freshly baked pots of gooey cookie dough served with a dollop of ice cream or creme fraiche.
