Jamie Oliver is back in the garden of his Essex home, to show just how easy it is to grow fantastic veg and fruit, and turn it into simple, tasty and delicious food. This time Jamie’s looking at strawberries. With the help of gardener Brian, Jamie has transformed his garden and discovered a passion for growing his own produce.
From perfect peas to superb salad, this series is Jamie’s straightforward guide to getting the best from Mother Nature. What was once most people’s favourite summer fruit has become available all year round and the taste has suffered accordingly. Well, there’s only one thing for it and that’s to grow your own. Jamie’s garden is bursting with strawberries from hanging baskets, a great way to grow them, and he picks them in situ to make a strawberry salad with speck and halloumi.
Not only are they good fresh, but Jamie also shows more inventive ways with the traditional strawberry: his take on a classic is grilled strawberries with Pimm’s. While there are a glut of strawberries in season, Jamie shows how to make the most of them by making a really simple, delicious strawberry jam, which he serves hot with a creamy rice pudding. As strawberries are everywhere in Jamie’s garden at this time of year, even Brian gets to take a break and enjoy a strawberry Bellini.
