Cooking for a Drinks Party

Mairi MacRitchie meets some of the country's finest cooks, who share with her their recipes. In this episode Mairi gathers recipes for a drinks party.

Tha Màiri NicRisnidh air chuairt eile tron Ghàidhealtachd is nan Eilean a' coinneachadh ri sàr-chòcairean a sheallas dhi am biadh is fheàrr leothasan a dhèanamh.

Anns a' phrògram seo tha Màiri ann an Ìle agus Leòdhas, a' lorg mireanan blasta a nì i airson partaidh le deoch, do charaidean is chàirdean. Agus tha na còcairean is aithne dhi deiseil le molaidhean air leth math: bho pasgain bheaga filo làn sitheann circe ann an sabhs satay, gu slisean arain sòda le cais'-uachdrach agus bradan smocte. Greimeannan a fhreagradh sònraichte math air
glainne fìon no fiù's drama.

Agus bithidh na criomagan a' cheart cho blasta ma bhios iad milis. Tha Màiri a' coinneachadh ri bèiceirean ealanta a chuireas iomadh greim grinn mu a coinneamh: macaronaichean Frangach, làn gruthach liomaine is mascarpone - agus baklava, taois filo ròiceil le cnòthan is siorap. Aon rud cinnteach, cha bhi na h-aoighean a' gearain.

Mairi MacRitchie is in the Highlands and islands meeting some of the country's finest cooks and bakers, who share with her their favourite and most treasured recipes.

In this programme, Mairi is in Islay and Lewis gathering tasty recipes for a fabulous drinks party. Her cooks are on hand with suggestions that will make any tummy rumble, from little filo parcels filled with chicken and a satay sauce to crusty slices of homemade soda bread with smoked salmon cream cheese. These little morsels are the perfect accompaniment to a glass of wine or dram.

Canapes at a drinks party don't always have to be savoury, and Mairi meets some skilled bakers who show her how to make some dainty little sweets. She's treated to macarons, deliciously chewy with a lemon curd and mascarpone filling, and baklava, a syrupy, nutty filo pastry slice. Your guests certainly won't be complaining.
