Tip the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for a few minutes. Roll the dough out into a 22 x 32cm rectangle. And like the rest of us, he also ended up doing far too much home cooking. "To the point that I was told by Sarah, my other half, to stop cooking because she was getting annoyed with me." The silent millions of reluctant home chefs have been waiting for decades for Oh Cook! the cookbook that, finally, drives a blunt meat skewer through the burgeoning pseudo-intellectualism of foodie media.’ – James May Taking readers on a culinary tour (around his kitchen), James builds upon his cookery skills, recreating dishes from his travels as well as rediscovering some nostalgic childhood favourites along the way.

Now add the peppers, carrot, baby corn, mangetout, bean sprouts and the leftover marinade. Stir-fry for three minutes until everything is cooked but not soggy. Every time we do something, somebody in the eight or 10 assembled people in the room pipes up with, 'Have you thought about doing it like that? Well why don't you do it like this?' I just think, 'Well, why don't you just shut the f*** up?'" The only vegetables book you'll ever need reveals hundreds of ways to cook nearly every vegetable under the sun.If you're coming to Coles by car, why not take advantage of the 2 hours free parking at Sainsbury's Pioneer Square - just follow the signs for Pioneer Square as you drive into Bicester and park in the multi-storey car park above the supermarket.

To his happiness, it comes with a tractor. "I thought I might plough a little bit of it and have a go at growing potatoes or parsnips, something that I imagine would be quite easy – it probably isn't."

Ohhh that’s made me so happy! I was worried you wouldn’t do another one. Will there be a new book to go with it?”

This is different, because I can’t cook. Usually, with these TV/cookbook tie-in jobs, the book comes first and then selected bits are filmed for the show. The idea behind Oh Cook! is to learn on screen and then put the successful bits into print. Will we get another cookbook to compliment it? If so than I shall own 2 cookbooks— Big Tum Tum (@OxBellows56) March 10, 2023 The Prime Video series was a massive success, garnering a 4.5-star rating out of 5, much like May’s travel series ‘ James May: Our Man In Japan.’ He has a great interest in the latest models, but would throw all of his money at a rusty old French classic and a 300ZX.

In advance: Put the oil in a large bowl. Add the ginger, soy sauce, chilli and steak strips. Mix up and leave in the fridge, covered, to marinate for at least 10 minutes. Half a day is even better.

Remove the meat from the marinade and wipe dry. Reserve the marinade. Add the beef to the wok and stir-fry for five minutes. James May is here to prove that really anyone can cook. On his journey to becoming a more accomplished home cook, he makes use of his favourite trusted gadgets and ingredients and through some traditional trial and error so that you can avoid all the common pit falls at home.

Remove the pudding from the oven, unwrap the kitchen foil, then snip the string and unwrap the parchment. Adoro James May dai tempi di Top Gear e lo apprezzo ancora di più quando si occupa di cose che non sono automobili, perché ha un approccio sempre molto concreto e "umano".

He has however, "become very sympathetic to them" as a telly species. "I used to occasionally watch a cooking programme and think, 'Oh Gordon, stop being such a big diva, standing around swearing'. But now I've had a go at doing it, I realised what the problem is," says Bristol-born May, 57. This is not a fantasy recipe book for food fetishists, full of soft-focus pictures of improbable art food. This is more of a workshop manual; a how-to guide for beginners that will become smeared with gravy and ketchup stains through constant service in the kitchen.’ – James May The silent millions of reluctant home chefs have been waiting for decades for Oh Cook! the cookbook that, finally, drives a blunt meat skewer through the burgeoning pseudo-intellectualism of foodie media.' - James May

He says it's "not for accomplished chefs, or celebrity chefs or people who collect recipe books. This is a book designed to be propped up on the worktop and used like a Haynes Manual for beginners, and once you've made the stuff in this book, you should give it to Oxfam and move on." The healthy eating has not quite translated to him joining the grow-your-own movement – yet. The former Top Gear presenter has a "little hobbity cottage" in the countryside in South Wiltshire, where he has recently embarked upon buying the field next door, "just because I've always quite fancied having a field". Filled with James’ handy hints and tips, you, too, will be able to host a curry night, fix a mean breakfast, build a Victoria sponge and master the barbecue. While there are more Grand Tour episodes ahead, May has – alongside his newfound telly cheffing career – just bought "half a pub". He's now the co-landlord The Royal Oak in Swallowcliffe (near his cottage), after its fate appeared to be in peril. "I thought, 'I really like this pub'," he explains, and so helped save it. "I don't want to be in a village where there isn't a pub within walking distance, that would make life utterly pointless."
