James Martin returns to ITV1 this Tuesday, 10 June, at 2 PM UK time with another helping of culinary delights on James Martin’s Midweek Menu. Filmed at his Hampshire home, Martin revisits some of his Saturday Morning favorites, adding a few new twists along the way. This week, he’s whipping up pasta and artichokes for chef Lesley Waters, while Michelin-starred chef Tommy Banks contributes a dessert featuring the unlikely pairing of potato and chicory root.
But the main course is where the real action happens. Madness frontman Suggs joins chefs Daniel Galmiche, Dipna Anand, and Alysia Vasey for a taste test of Martin’s coq au vin. Expect kitchen banter, strong opinions, and maybe even a singalong if the wine flows freely.
As always, Midweek Menu isn’t just about celebrity guests—it’s a masterclass in simple, satisfying cooking. This time, Martin’s giving viewers a lesson in the art of onion prep—because even rock stars need to know the basics. For fans of no-fuss food and good company, this episode looks like another solid entry in Martin’s ever-expanding cookbook.
“James Martin’s Midweek Menu” airs Tuesday on ITV1 at 2:00 PM UK time.
