I'm in love.. I lo..ove Jamie Oliver - the michelin star chef with a kind heart. I have been watching his shows for the last month or so on an Indian channel. I think it also has a lot to do with the fact that I love European food unlike A who prefers south east asian or chinese.
So far he has me hooked to polenta and homemade desserts- he made this fabulous citrusy chicken flavoured with sage in his last show and served it over polenta. I was hooked! I told SIL to send me some. I usually try out his recipes within a day or two of watching the show so that I don't forget.
I love his casual, boy next door, 'cooking is so easy' effect.
Cooking is something you can't teach anyone. oh there is a lot of studying a chef has to do but despite all the trainng you can either cook or not cook. A chef who says he/she 'watches what he eats' and is obviously not fond of food or not adventurous is not a real chef. Cooking is a blend of an art and science and one has to be naturally sensitized in order to cook well. more on cooking in the next post...
