Fresh, bold and bright, Saturday Kitchen is packed with exciting features and mouth-watering recipes. When James Martin is in the kitchen it’s like being at a trendy catering college – albeit with a very dishy private tutor. But he’s not just a pretty face! The cookery on Saturday Kitchen is well-judged – food that can be bought and cooked on the day, and grace the dinner table that night. The energetic James plays host to guest chefs and celebrities. As they undergo a series of culinary challenges, will they be voted into ‘food heaven’ or consigned to ‘food hall’? The international cast of chefs all undertake the omelette challenge, a hilarious race against the clock where Michelin stars don’t mean anything! Some star chefs take it so seriously they practice for hours beforehand. Guest chefs include MasterChef’s John Torode, Si King and Dave Myers from Hairy Bikers Cookbook and one of Australia’s leading cooks Bill Granger.

Great programme,not sure what the omelette challenge adds to it.What has happened to the two guests,are they no longer part of the show,a pity,I was thinking of applying.Could do with less of John and Gregg shouting and screaming at their already stressed pupils-is this reality TV gone too far.Give us more of Keith Floyd,he was a legend.Keep up the good work James,only cookery show worth watching,I also enjoy Sunday am best bites.

Great program...except for the omelette challenge...embarrassed chefs pretending to hit each other with saucepans making ... omelettes that James Martin deserves a medal for tasting..come on Saturday Kitchen the time could be much better used
Why do they insist on showing the faces of people been interviewed instead of what james is cooking?
in my opinion James Martin is one of the best live tv presenters on any channel . He copes magnificently with interviewing celebrities and chefs while at the sme time cooking quite complicated recipes.Thank God AWT decided to 'seek success' elsewhere because his departure gave us James. Our whole family love him and the programme .No other chef could do what he does.Thankyou James
Watched show sat 30 Oct and caught tail end of a beef soup with cabbage. Cannot find recipe. Would love to make this - so please help Rita Brown
The recipes used on the show do not always tie up to the recipes published on the net ie crab cakes on the show crab croquets on the net two different recipes?
Dear James, How would you like a food challenge, to cook me a meal that i can eat as i have multiple allergies. I watch your program every week . Cathy Grant. please reply back. Thank You.

Can you please tell me what did the chef crashed the spices with, and where to buy it?. It's the indian dish
It would be nice if we didn't have so many repeats of the two fat ladies as we all know there is only one it spoils the show and I don't like the horrible varnished nails looks disgusting
enjoyed the show today 12/12/09 with especially crispy skin duck and the coleslaw with Paul Rankin

I enjoy the programme for its good recipes and relaxed style but especially to see and hear James! I'm glad I don't have to taste the three egg omelets - good luck with those!

It would be great to get the show that wasn't a couple of years old. You do all the normall food, how about cooking a goat recipe?
Love the show; watch it every Saturday however cannot always find the recipes. Presume the shows we watch here in Australia may be old and thus recipes are not easy to find.
hello james. i watch your programme every week without fail, not that i get to hear much of it with our 4 and a half year old. could i ask a huge favour. could you please cook a lamb recipe which is not red in the middle. the amount of times you've cooked it just looks awful. would just love to see lamb well and truly cooked! p.s our little boy has got the same name as you.
what was the recipe for smoking trout saturday 31 january 2009
My wife and I have been watching this show for a while now, even though it has changed time slot we still watch. Love the way the chef's are so relaxed and happy to share. Like others, would like the recipes to be on this site if possible. We love James Martin and his easy going style and note he is very conscious of cleanliness and presentation. Great Show...
I saw a small part of the "Saturday Kitchen" for the first time today also FANTASTIC......LOVE IT!! I was SO impressed by the raspberry & white chocolate cheesecake recipe, but unfortunately I can not find it:( Love the show!!!
I found the recipe on bbc.co.uk... recipe search... http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/database/bakedraspberrycheese_86567.shtml
I also saw "saturday kitchen" for the first time today and loved the recipes for both the Gymkhana chicken pie and the cheesecake. Found it difficult to find the recipes though. Eventually did by using the advanced search engine and only entering one word ie cheesecake. This then came up with the Baked Raspberry cheesecake and boozy berries recipe. If the recipes could be sourced through the lifestyle food page would be so much easier. Otherwise great show .. keep it up. Regards
I saw a small part of the "Saturday Kitchen" for the first time today and was so impressed by the raspberry, white chocolate, cheesecake recipe, came direct to the Lifestyle information on the computer to see if I could get the recipe, but could not, if it is going to be there, not added as yet,,,,,,but with all that aside, I was impressed with the show, how it was presented and the recipe looked delicious. I will watch for the show and the recipe, again. Thank you . Regards
