I made a few things from Blue Peter back in the day and I've also cooked a fair few recipes especially from Delia Smith and Lorraine Pascal.
Oct 15, 2008 · Never fear, Blue Peter showed viewers how to make a tabard and matching legwarmers by cutting the arms off their mother's old sweaters. Other fashionable suggestions...

Turkey’s worldwide reputation as the home of the simple kebab is misleading: the country is much more than a nation of meat lovers. Dig into the culture and history of Turkish cuisine, and the kebab myth is so far from the simple truth. In households around Turkey, families eat salads, soups and vegetable dishes, which stems from generations of far...
I have vivid memories of joining a family in the annual Kurban Bayram religious festival. We sacrificed an animal, cut it up to distribute meat for the poor, friends, and family. Not wanting to offend or ignore traditional values, I was unsure of what meat to save and what was waste. I asked the mother what I was holding in my hands, and she deligh...
Turks dislike waste and offal dishes are plentiful in Turkey. One version sold everywhere as street food is Kokorec. This combination of offal stuffed into intestines with spices is grilled on a spit. Once ready, the chef chops it into small pieces and serves it in a donor wrap or between two slices of crusty beard with lettuce, salad, and tomato. ...
Tavuk Gogsu is hard to wrap your head around. The concept of chicken served in a dessert dish is strange, yet it is a famous recipe from the Ottoman era. Boiled chicken is stripped down to its bare fibres, and any good Turkish cook will say it is impossible to taste its flavour. Most foreigners say that despite its strange combination of ingredient...
The wet burger is famous in the Taksim area of Istanbul after a night out partying. Said to be the perfect food for soaking up alcohol, soggy bread might not appeal to many but most people who have tried it, swear by it. Burger buns are doused with a rich tomato and garlic sauce and then placed in a glass steamed cabinet. Served with the meat burge...
Also originating from the Ottoman Empire, Turks call Cilbir an ideal comfort food. Eggs and yoghurt together reminds me of a sloppy mess, but if cooked right, the egg yolk is runny but still firm and once fused with the yoghurt and paprika, the flavours blend well together. Other versions also include garlic sauce, or melted butter poured on top.
Often compared to steak tartar or the Armenian dish Chee Kufta, Cig kofte is a combination of ground, raw lamb or beef mixed with herbs and spices into a small shaped firm ball. Drizzled with lemon juice and wrapped with a leaf of lettuce, chopped bulgur, onions and tomato paste can also be added. This dish attracted safety concerns because it incl...
Iskembe Corbasi may not seem weird to earlier UK generations who remember tripe as a staple part of the working man’s diet. But many other nationalities and the younger UK population, wouldn’t dream of eating tripe. In Turkey, tripe soup is another well-known hangover food, often consumed after the nightclubs close. The popularity is reminiscent of...
Although it is a drink, Salgam makes your taste buds work on full fuel. Popular in the Southeast cities of Turkey, the weird combination of pickled carrot juice, mixed with the ferment of bulgur rice flour and turnips does not appeal to most foreigners, but if you want to try it, the famous floating fish boats of Galata Bridge in Istanbul sell it. ...
Delicious Turkish Mezes:These appetisers are the perfect start to any meal and thanks to regional and cultural influences, are mouth-watering. Including vegetables, seafood, and many other choices, Turkish mezes are also healthy.
