Mary explores the comfort of home cooking, making a hearty bolognaise bake.

Mary explores the dishes that remind her of home and whips up some of her own family favourites, including a hearty bolognaise bake with a burrata and heritage tomato salad.

For many of us, nothing hits the spot quite like those dishes that evoke memories of home. Whether it is recreating family favourites, keeping traditions alive or celebrating with festive feasts, this is the food that makes us feel safe and sound.

In this episode, Mary is off to explore how different families use food to create their own wonderful sense of home.

Mary meets a father-and-daughter team who have taken their home cooking to the streets with their own food van and a family who have created a slice of Sicily in north London.

Mary spends a magical day and evening with a family celebrating Diwali, helping them to prepare the feast and decorate the home. And Mary also makes some of her own family favourites, including a hearty bolognaise bake with a burrata and heritage tomato salad, paneer and roast vegetable curry, roast chicken with melting onions, and a wild bramble mousse.
