Three Course Meal

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall returns to Channel 4 with his new TV series Hugh’s 3 Good Things on Monday 12 November. In it he is joined by popular River Cottage chefs Gill Meller and Tim Maddams as well as exciting guest chefs from the country’s top restaurants.

The team will cook with three good things each day, following Hugh’s philosophy that all good things come in threes. All you need, he believes, is a trio of great ingredients to knock out the perfect plate of food, whether it’s sausages, mash and greens, or apricots, almonds and cream.

Showing Monday to Friday for five weeks at 5pm, every week will feature a different theme – from fish, meat and fruit, to vegetables and pulses and grains. Hugh and his guest chefs will be raiding the best of River Cottage’s kitchen garden, poly tunnels, fruit trees and larders to provide the finest, seasonal local ingredients, proving along the way that seasonal is best and simple ingredients make
the tastiest of meals.
