Mary Makes It Easy

Jordan North has more will than skill when cooking, so he joins Mary for some simple recipes to impress his pals, and as a thank you takes her to the pub for a pint and game of darts.

Mary meets Anton Du Beke in sunny Bournemouth to teach him simple recipes, perfect for a total beginner, squeezing in time for a waltz along the pier and trip on the Ferris wheel.

Mary surprises Lorraine Kelly on the set of her show to teach her and daughter Rosie some delicious time-saving recipes, including a fragrant Thai-style beef stir-fry and sea bream with samphire.

Mary joins AJ Odudu on a beautiful local allotment to teach her the joy of stress-free cooking. AJ tries her hand at a luscious tiger prawn courgetti and a rich aubergine bhuna.

Mary shows keen cook Michael Ball how to be more daring in the kitchen, especially with desserts. On stage at Michael’s current West End musical, they make an easy key lime pie, while Mary also creates an incredible chocolate celebration cake.
