Andalucía
Sunday 25th July 8 pm More4
Andalucía in Southern Spain, is all about having celebrating ingredients and produce. Jamie, based around Ronda and Estepona, joins trainee bullfighters practising in Spain's oldest bull ring – with a trolley with horns.
He eats Heavenly Cakes cooked by nuns from a closed order, cooks rabbit stew with gypsies, joins in the festivities as a giant statue of the Madonna is carried from a church by 100 men to the sea and cooks a giant paella for a whole village. He cooks Garden Gazpachio, Fish Baked in Salt, 'Pimped' chorizo and tomato salad and a quails’ egg breakfast.
