Mary Berry's Quick Cooking

Starting her travels in Italy, Mary makes her first ever visit to Rome. With a cuisine and cooking culture she has always adored, Italy’s vibrant capital city offers some of the world’s best food and produce. After a moped tour of the sights, she tries a delicious new take on traditional pizza, uncovers a hidden gem in Rome’s old Jewish quarter and cooks a speedy Roman classic with Michelin-starred chef Cristina Bowerman. Doing what she does best, Mary whips up a mouthwatering bruschetta on a beautiful central Rome rooftop, some super speedy pasta dishes and an irresistible tiramisu - all inspired by her Italian adventure.

Mary is joining the crowds and heading to her first ever music festival, but it is not the bands she has come for. She wants to explore the wonderful world of festival food pop-ups, seeing firsthand how these exciting outdoor cooks draw mega crowds as they whip up delicious delicacies in a flash. During her festival adventure, Mary enlists the help of one of the festivals headliners, Rick Astley, together making her speedy cheesy muffins all from her very own food truck. She also creates some surefire kitchen successes with her scrumptious rosemary lamb steaks, vegetable kebabs and a delicious rum and raisin ice cream.

Mary is heading to the hustle and bustle of Marrakech in Morocco. Immersing herself in the mayhem of the medina on a mission to explore every side of Moroccan cuisine, Mary is inspired by the aromatic flavours and smells and rustles up some quick dishes that make the most of them. From the mounds of olives and heady spices at the markets, to the slow-cooked tagines made in the heart of a family kitchen and the high-end delights of the country's greatest chef, Moha Fedal. In her own kitchen, she brings the fragrant flavours home cooking a speedy lamb tagine, a spicy carrot humus and a fresh summer salad.
