In this episode we celebrate Chinese New Year — the Year of the ‘Fire’ Horse, - by tucking into some Prawn Crackers, debating whether fusion food and mixing cuisines is magic… or madness (do Korean tacos and sushi burritos really deserve a place at the table?) and is it really a trend or been around for centuries. Six varieties savoured but only one winner. Find out who and join us (the two rabbits) for some fun, flavour and relishing.

Welcome to Relish Lifestyle — where curiosity meets the kitchen table.

You’ve heard of Valentine’s Day… but what about White Day?
Or even Black Day — a whole celebration of being single?

Did you know grapefruit was once called the ‘forbidden fruit’?
And that fibre is having something of a moment?

This week we’re sprinkling a little Michelin stardust, slicing into something citrusy, sampling sweet Portuguese treats and proving that February can be full of flavour, fun and a few surprises.

So pour yourself something zingy and come and relish it with us.

We’re sharpening the knives, celebrating roasts, and dipping into the fascinating history of carving (it’s dramatic - consider ‘disfigured’ peacocks and ‘splatted’ pike!) As always we share recipes, practical tips, and this week we add a burst of citrus as it’s the season for Seville oranges so Charlie’s been chopping, mashing and stirring up his marmalade. Oh and we can’t not mention the Bake Off shake-up — plus plenty of our usual kitchen banter. So grab a cuppa, pull up a chair, and come join us.

It’s January — and while Veganuary is everywhere, we’re beefing things up. In this episode of Relish Lifestyle, we’re leaning into flavour, comfort and wholesome winter cooking. We talk British beef, brilliant cuts that reward slow cooking, and how to make meat go further.

With Burns Night just around the corner, we also chat haggis — why it’s such a clever, comforting winter dish and why it deserves a bit more love. Add in a very lively tomato ketchup tasting (because why not?), plenty of recipe chat, that leans into our annual shout out — Try January — and you’ve got an episode full of warmth, curiosity and good food.

No rules, no guilt — just proper cooking, great conversation, and a delicious way to start the year.

This episode feels a bit special — because we spent Christmas somewhere very different. We’re talking all about our festive trip to the Algarve, where winter sunshine, long days and good food set the tone for a slower, more relaxed Christmas.

From our time in Olhão and Christmas Eve supper, to paddling on Boxing Day and discovering how the Portuguese celebrate, we share what we loved, what surprised us, and what we ate along the way — including a traditional Alentejo meal in historic Évora.

Back home, it’s ‘game on’ as you’ll find out as we chat about the dishes we cooked for New Year’s Eve and take a little look at what’s coming next.

We’re back — and this episode is all about easing into Christmas, Relish style, with a good dose of nostalgia, laughter and the usual kitchen table chat.

Now do you remember the Delia effect? That moment when a single TV recipe could empty supermarket shelves overnight and send sales of the simplest ingredients through the roof. We’re reminiscing about the recipes we still turn to, and how food memories have a way of sticking with us.

We’re also giving Brussels sprouts some long-overdue love (there’s so much more to them than boiling), sharing what Charlie got up to for his birthday, and starting to gear up for a Portuguese Christmas. And because it wouldn’t feel festive without a bit of silliness, here’s a cracker joke ‘What is Santa’s favourite sport?’

To find out grab a drink, get comfy, and join us as we kick off Series 3 — cosy, festive, and fully relishing life.

It’s the Series Two finale — and we’re signing off in true Relish style: chopping, stirring, baking and fully savouring everything we’ve loved this season.

We’re looking back at the moments that made us smile, debating turkey or no turkey, and giving the humble onion the glory it deserves — because honestly, can you imagine cooking without it?

So join us for another warm, lively, flavour-packed episode to end the series … keep your ovens warm, your glasses topped up and keep relishing life — we’ll be back before you know it.

In this episode, we’re diving into the comfort season, by celebrating the British pudding. We chat about why we feel the draw of the kitchen and the joy of cooking more as the days get shorter and why November feels so deliciously familiar.

Charlie shares his take on the ultimate rice pudding — slow-cooked, creamy, and deeply comforting — and we uncover a few fascinating facts about the ‘good old’ British pud. From the old-school classics we remember from childhood — the school dinner favourites with questionable custard — to the proper homemade treats that still bring joy today.

There’s plenty of laughter, a touch of nostalgia, and that familiar feeling of comfort that comes from good food and good company — especially when there’s pudding involved.

So join us as we sit by the fire, sharing stories, stirring up memories, and celebrating the simple joy of pudding season. It’s cosy, it’s chatty, and it’s very Relish.
