Marcus Wareing, who was born in Southport, will be launching his new BBC Two show, Simply Provence, tonight at 6.30pm.
A Lancashire-born celebrity chef and Masterchef: The Professionals judge is on a mission to show viewers the joys of simple seasonal food across the Channel. He will be looking at the reputation of British food and how it compares against that of our closest neighbours. Being a lover of both British and French dishes, Wareing is on a mission to show viewers the joys of simple seasonal food across the Channel, as well as adding a British twist to some of their treasured traditional dishes.
He meets producers, chefs and farmers who give him a hands-on experience and allow him to learn more about where the food comes from. Then, after he has gained the locals’ trust and got them to share some of their precious secrets, Marcus whips up his own versions of French classics and dares to serve them up to the region’s most dedicated Francophiles, farmers, chefs and producers. It’s fair to say that their opinions of the outsider’s dishes vary.
