You Know It Makes Sense
Nigella's week is a jumble of whipping up fast food and more leisurely cooking at the weekend. There are ravenous kids who want their food now, people dropping round after work and a kitchen full of hungry people of all ages on Saturday and Sunday but whoever & whatever Nigella has it covered with her totally decadent peanut butter cheesecake, her Mother's Praised chicken, a chic easy Roast Seafood feast for friends and a child friendly, steaming bowl of Small pasta with Salami. You know it makes sense.

Inspiration Everywhere
When it comes to cooking Nigella finds inspiration anywhere and everywhere. San Francisco inspired the saintly sourdough croutons that adorn her Spatchcocked Poussin with baby leaf salad. TV inspired the fabulously kitsch and kooky Grasshopper Pie, and for a spectacularly quick and tasty supper Nigella brings you Korean Calamari a recipe that came to her whilst partaking in another favourite pastime, shopping.

Rags to Riches
Truly heavenly meals don't have to start life with painfully expensive ingredients - Nigella's got a host of sublime recipes that hale from far more modest beginnings. Pork Knuckles may not be the prettiest bones in the butcher shop, but beer braised with apples and potatoes, they are totally divine and cheap to boot. You'd never guess a stunning vegetable curry can be made from the wilting contents of your Monday morning fridge raid or a Pantry Paella can be made entirely from the contents of your treasured store cupboard... or eggs and bacon can be turned into such a delicious salad. Nigella shows us how.

Kitchen Comforts
Nigella's idea of a perfect break is a weekend culinary staycation in the kitchen.

Followed by strawberry and almond crumble - so comforting there's not even any need to chew.
