The camp Indian chef was in a program called Reza in Africa. I had never seen it before but I have Freeview and its probably been on Sky for years.
He was in Botswana and cooked a pizza in a wood oven adapted from an anthill and the Africans cooked bread in a Dutch oven made out of an oil drum - only used embers on the top.
They still sell cast iron Dutch ovens in France - never seen anyone use one though!
He then cooked an Indian pizza in UK kitchen making a spicy sauce, used mozzarella cheese and Panner. He topped with lots of red onion to which he had added salt and lemon juice - to take away the onioness???

Tonights episode saw Reza visit Nelson Mandelas house to see his cook. Large lady - cooked chicken with herbs and spices - "No oil or fat she said Nelson must look after his health" after being in oven 45 minutes she added a large jar of mayonaise and some sweet peach chutney!
She then cooked a healthy two bean dish with spices and added half a pack of butter.
Get down to the bookies and get a bet on Nelson Mandela dying from a heart attack!

I have sky TV and looked everywhere for the programme today. Maybe I just didn't look hard enough, but couldn't find it anywhere on my channels. Big shame as I'm a massive fan of Reza.
First saw him on a series on French living, where he partnered an English Chef (can't for the life of me remember his name) to start an Indian restaurant in France.....I've been a fan of him ever since. There are not many people that can be flamboyant and overthetop with their character......that idiot Laurence arty farty Bowen comes to mind....an utter ar*ehole.......but Reza can flaunt his stuff all day and get away with it......and I love it!!....shame I can't find this programme on sky.....oh bugger!!!
