The Cook & The Chef

In the latest series of The Cook and The Chef, Simon and Maggie begin with a celebration of the summer season and refreshing summer food. From fresh seafood, summer greens and delicious fresh fruit, Maggie and Simon are covering all of our seasonal favourites.

Food legend and seafood aficionado Rick Stein will also feature in the series when he meets up with Maggie and shares his secrets on the art of cooking mouthwatering fish. Maggie and Simon will also celebrate their 100th episode with a visit from Peter Cundall from Gardening Australia who gives The Cook and The Chef some great advice for growing vegetables.

    Hi Maggie and Simon I would like to compliment you both on your exciting and innovative show that I love to watch and say that you two of the more respected and iconic masters of great Australian cuisine and nary a swear word or abusive bullying comment expressed. Gordon could certainly take a leaf out of your cook book about how one can conduct oneself with gracious warmth, humour and what appears to be very real respect for each other’s skills and abilities. I enjoy your show along with Mark Olives because you all cook with a passion, intelligence and creative flair whilst marrying some pretty diverse ingredients with great Australian cheeses, meats, poultry, seafood vegetables and fruits etc. The biggest compliment that I can say is that you make ones mouth water and nostrils flair with imagined aromas when producing some truly amazing and flavoursome meals and recipes. If you ever need a taste tester I would jump at the opportunity lol. Keep producing these excellent TV shows and wishing you great success in bringing your passion to the people. Kind regards Julie aka Bossyk

    It's so sad that the show is ending at the end of '09. Terrible news! Is this true????

    We find it very strange and a bad image for professionals in kitchens that professionals of your standard use the same forks and spoons to taste and re taste food. Surely using serving spoons and forks putting your food onto tasting plates would project what most people expect fro
    m food preparers.

    Why doesn't Simon have celebrity status as a Celebrity Chef on this site? He is a creative, generous and modest man who surely deserves his own fan club.

    I love the show, most of the recipes I have tried work, especially the butterflied leg of lamb on the BBQ. Love Maggie and Simon, however, would love to see lots more of Maggie's good friend Stephanie Alexander as well, perhaps these two grand food heros of Aussie food need to collaborate.

    I absolutely love this show. I cant get enough of it. I would like you to show at some stage simple receipes that a person can cook when they live on there own. But apart from that keep up the good work. Congratualtions on becoming the Senior Citzens of Australia. Well Done.
