Yotam Ottolenghi has revolutionised Mediterranean and Middle-Eastern food in the UK and made the flavours of the region more accessible and desirable than ever before. Brought up in Jerusalem at the crossroads of conflicting food cultures, he embraces... different culinary traditions with a passion and creative restlessness unmatched by any other chef around.

In this series, Yotam will take us on a culinary journey through the sun-soaked Lavant, from the spice markets of Morocco to the exotic eateries of Istanbul, a part of the world that has captured his imagination since childhood.

Beautifully photographed mouthwatering meals will be one of the benchmarks of the series. But this will not just be a succession of stunning recipes; every one of Yotam's concoctions tells a story. The aim here is to decode history on a plate, and delve into the creative conflict between tradition and innovation that is at the heart of Mediterranean and near East culture and food, both past and present.

Beyond an exciting culinary odyssey, then, this will be a personal journey of discovery; a cultural, anthropological road trip. But at its simplest, Yotam's Mediterranean Feasts will be a tantalising; original food show from a part of the world that defines the new aspirations of Britain's home cooks today.
