The chef prepares an all-vegetarian menu of curries with a selection of side dishes for a gathering of NHS junior doctors and midwives enjoying a well-deserved night off. On the menu are fragrant coconut squash curry with chickpeas, ginger and spices, golden paneer curry served with a spinach and green chilli sauce, and a smoky aubergine dal, served with fluffy coconut rice infused with cardamom, lemon and saffron milk, and buttery soft fennel naans.
The chef prepares a feast for people doing voluntary work through the pandemic, from helping at food banks and vaccination centres to sewing PPE. The centrepiece of the meal is salmon decorated and flavoured with rosemary, chillies, capers and anchovies, served with a lemony potato salad and extra sweet oregano and garlic roasted tomatoes. Jamie also serves up cheesy puffs as canapes, strawberry and prosecco cocktails, and a summer pudding made with strawberries, cucumber and Pimm's.
