Ep 5 | Zero Waste

Episode 5 of our new BBC Food series, Thrifty Cooking in the Doctor’s Kitchen, is all about zero waste as Dr Rupy is joined by good friend Melissa Hemsley.

Melissa, a self-taught chef, best-selling cookbook author, food activist and sustainability champion, is passionate about spreading the power of feel-good food. In this episode, Melissa pulls up a stool and shares her tips on how to stop being wasteful in the kitchen, and the importance of community.

Dr Rupy cooks up a pick-me-up soup, a seasonal pie full of green goodness and a zero waste, maximum flavour pot roast chicken.

The whole series is now available to watch on iPlayer, with recipe edits available on BBC Food’s Facebook, Instagram and Twitter platforms:
