Mary Berry Makes It Easy

Channel: BBC Lifestyle (DStv 174)
TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Food

Mary Berry Makes It Easy

Join bestselling cookbook author Mary Berg in her home kitchen as she shares easy and delicious recipes that make cooking stress-free.

In each of the 13 half-hour episodes, Mary provides tips and tricks that remove any fear or intimidation in the kitchen.

From ideas on what to make with a fridge full of leftovers, to lackluster chicken emergencies, Mary has the solution to every cooking challenge.

No matter what a home cook's skill level is, Mary's step-by-step guidance is all that is needed for confidence in the kitchen.

Throughout the series Mary helps eliminate kitchen worries, whether someone is bored of their recipe repertoire, or scared to try something new, she demystifies cooking techniques, breaks down meal planning, and shares winning recipes that will make any cook the star of the kitchen.

From preparation to serving, Mary will help make it all as easy as possible.

Chicken is the focus of the premiere episode, one of the most versatile ingredients, this protein can lack flavour, and is easily overcooked if not prepared properly.

Mary teaches how to make it shine in four different ways, including a classic roast chicken, comforting chicken noodle soup, savoury chicken stir fry and cheesy, crispy chicken parmesan.

Chicken will never be boring or dry again.

In the series premiere: Mary is joined by her dear friend of over 20 years, Mel Giedroyc, for a joyful camping trip.

Both love spending time with their families in the great outdoors, but Mel is stuck in a rut when it comes to cooking for them, and she's relying on Mary to inspire her with some simple and delicious weekend wonders - a hearty chicken tartiflette, a speedy veg ragù and some creamy raspberry parfaits.

TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Talk Show, Afrikaans

Laataand by Rian 3

Rian van Heerden is back with his talk show in which he not only talks to newsmakers, but also to interesting people he has come across.

All of this happens around a plate of food in his eatery in Pretoria, called Delizioso.

There are two guests in every episode and the second guest is always a surprise for the first.

The first guest is someone who is in the news, but the second guest is usually an eccentric or extraordinary person who is invited to keep the conversations in a light vein, to serve as a surprise or to take the conversation to the next level.

When it comes to the newsmakers, for example, the guests are not all from the political world.

Among the guests who last visited Rian are Thys die Bosveldklong, Whitey Basson, Tereza Troskie-Herbst and Dricus du Plessis.

In the third season, Rian talks to everyone from comedians and singers to pranksters and firebrand politicians.

You can look forward to conversations with the radio personality Amore Bekker, the former hostage Gerco van Deventer, the Minister of Correctional Services, Pieter Groenewald, and the former lawyer Peet Viljoen.

In the Season 3 premiere: Rian welcomes ActionSA's leader, Herman Mashaba, who explains why he turned down the GNU's invitation and states his case about the drama in the Tshwane Metro.

Killer Cakes looks cool - a creative twist on the baking show genre that I'm appreciating for the first time.

You always see them making these elaborate concoctions but don't fully realise what goes into it unless you bake yourself. Details, details are important, like the type of pan you use and how it responds to heat.

I've just experienced this after trying to bake banana bread for the first time. The outside keeps burning and now I've discovered it's because the pan is so dark.

I've googled and see many people talking about this, how the colour of the pan can impact on the heat distribution.  

Ali Wong's stand-up special could be fun too considering her excellence in Beef. So long as it's not watered down or obsessed with what people say about her on Twitter - I found Ricky Gervais' Netflix special to be like this - too preoccupied with the socialz.
