Episode 2

In the second part of this gastronomic adventure discovering how Britain eats its way through Easter, Mary explores the wonderful foods that bring each different community together on Easter Sunday, the most symbolic and meaningful feast in the Christian calendar.

As well as sharing her own family favourites, like mouthwatering roast lamb, Mary discovers how the Greek Orthodox community break the fast with tsoureki bread, spends a day with the archbishop of York, John Sentamu, cooking up a storm in his kitchen, and discovers Filipino and Italian Easter specialities. All the time, Mary is gathering ideas and inspiration for her own Easter Feast, where she will invite all the cooks and families she has met to her local church hall to share a celebration that puts all their dishes on one table.
