Food: Delia's How to Cook - Part Two 8.30pm BBC2
There are two irresistible reasons to join the second phase of Delia Smith's cookery course. First, she empties out her store cupboard and ranges through the ingredients that go into a lifetime of interesting dishes. Then she makes the "easiest, most exotic and quickest recipe I know" - oriental pork casserole. In between, there is sound advice on what to keep in the cupboard to bring out the best flavours in your food, quick recipes, and tips for everyone from the complete beginner to the experienced cook. As Delia Smith devotees know, she cooks in such a down-to-earth and detailed way that she puts new worlds of flavour within easy reach. (GE)
