Kiwi Kitchen - Series One

Television (Full Length Episodes) – 2006

Cook Richard Till hits the road, hunting down New Zealand's most iconic dishes and the homegrown experts who make them best. Throughout the series, he meets passionate home cooks and food lovers all around the country, eager to share their treasured recipes. He perfects everything from the classic Kiwi Sunday roast to the iconic backyard barbecue, dives into retro dinner party staples, and brings new life to beloved Tourist Hotel Corporation dishes. Till takes what he learns back to his own kitchen, where he proves great cooking isn’t about expensive ingredients — it’s about skill, tradition, and letting the simple things shine. For all the delicious food details, check out this episode guide.

I like the stuff I grew up with: you know, the ordinary s**t. I've done stacked up food, and I've done fancy bits and pieces, and I've done twiddly bits, and I've shaved parsnips, and I've deep- fried them, and I've tized them up — but in the end I like the ordinary stuff.   
– Cook Richard Till, on going back to basics in his cooking
