Cawl with Broadcaster and Musician Cerys Matthews

In this episode of The 5 O' Clock Apron Podcast, Claire cooks with musician, author and broadcaster Cerys Matthews. Cerys hosts and programmes an award winning radio show on BBC 6 music every Sunday, the Blues Show on BBC Radio 2 each Monday at 9pm and co-hosts Radio 4’s new music show ADD TO PLAYLIST each Friday at 7.30pm. Cerys had a broken arm when we recorded this episode back in February, Claire chops and Cerys instructs on how to make a classic, at least, classically Cerys version of this Welsh classic. With quite a bit of veg to chop, Cerys and Claire discuss how to correctly prep a leek, deep-frying turkeys in Nashville, charity shopping in disguise, peppermill shame and Dolly Parton. Claire gets a quick lesson in Welsh and Cerys reads from her own cookbook, Where The Wild Cooks Go. Navigating a fast flowing river and some angry looking swans to get to Cerys’ house, this cookery conversation is a gorgeous one, thank you Cerys, we’ll be back to make those banana fritters with you some day soon.
