Food writer and cook Nigel Slater takes a tour of the diversity in modern British home cooking. Nigel explores the flair and flamboyance of noodles.

Nigel's tour of modern British home cooking explores the flair and flamboyance of noodles, from his own rustic take on old-fashioned spaghetti bolognese to the German art of noodle making from scratch, which Steffi shows him using a traditional spaetzle board. Nigel finds a Spanish favourite, fideua, that's as exuberant as the lady who makes it, and learns from Mickey not only how to make khao soi noodles, but also that even in Wimbledon, Buddhist food traditions are at the very heart of the Thai community.
