Adrian’s Welsh Bites 2017
In this series, it’s not just politicians that I’ve been cooking with. Sports stars, pop stars and weather presenters share their cooking skills with me. Funnily enough, mine aren’t getting any better. Watch me make soup and meringue with Ian H. Watkins of Steps fame here. Simon Weston here Colin Jackson is here Tanni Grey Thompson is here Sian Lloyd here and Neil and Christine Hamilton here.
Adrian’s Election Bites
I like to think I know the leaders of Wales’ largest parties well. Over the years I’ve covered their policy launches, their manifesto pledges; I know what their parties stand for and I know what their opponents think about them.
But that was before I spent time making omelettes with them, washed and chopped potatoes for them, grated parsnips for what felt like hours and stirred the sauces for Lasagne and Sloppy Joes.
I’ve now seen a whole new side to them, spending a few hours in the kitchen, outside (mostly) their comfort zones and mine, away from the Assembly chamber and the campaign trail.
