For the minty yoghurt sauce, I use fresh mint from the garden, and add ground cumin and chilli - for extra taste! This beautiful cookbook brings together over 100 of the nation's favourite recipes from the second series of BBC2's MUMS KNOW BEST. Meanwhile, back at the recipe fair, our food historian Gerard is on hand to give the historical context of some of the fascinating recipes and kitchen gadgets that turn up.

The premise of the series is to get mums to share their favourite recipes and ultimately showcase them at a recipe fair, rather misleadingly described as the Glastonbury of food (think school fête and you'd be closer). Si and Dave celebrate the picnic and make tasty treats that could make your picnic a veritable feast. We take pride in offering a wide selection of used books, from classics to hidden gems, ensuring there is something for every literary palate. Take Chicken Maryland chicken marinated in soy sauce, ginger and honey and served with bananas wrapped in bacon and sweetcorn fritters.In addition they are encouraged to bring along their indispensable, old- fashioned, dependable and sometimes unidentifiable kitchen gadgets: potato peelers, soda streams, meat mincers, pastry cutters. features a comic book full of c haracters featuring 42 real-life heroes, performing stunts and spectacles straight out of a movie, with a wardrobe of more than 100 costumes with characters from The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy series. From a classic cheese pie and 'rumpy-pumpy soup' to samosas and a world of fantastic cakes, the Hairy Bikers sample them all and, inspired by the cooking of these mums, they take a trip down memory lane to cook their own family favourite recipes.

I hate cooking, but sat looking at a friends Hairy Bikers book and felt some of the recipes sounded easy to make and looked good too. Inspired by the VIP Mums, the boys visit historical kitchens and great outdoor locations around the country to cook up some of their own family favourites and favourites of mums that they have visited round the world. They learn the secret behind a perfect baked Alaska and conjure up their own prized honey glazed ham. We provide a luxurious Purple 120gsm envelope embossed with a fancy shiny logo and if you fancy it, you can even include a personal message inside your card and we will send it directly to your recipient.

In this programme Si and Dave are celebrating 'family favourites' - those dishes that speak of home and childhood and love. Having tried some of the recipes they are precise they do not miss anything out not like some books they tell you this and that and the recipe does not work out and you are left with food that looks awful. At the heart of each is the Mums Know Best Banquet, catered by three ''VIP Mums' who showcase a great family recipe that needs to be shared with the nation. This wasn't just about food you had as a kid, it was about the whole history of British food, which, it turns out, is nowhere near as dull or British as you might think.
