Kitchen Hero: Donal’s Irish Feast (programme five) Tuesday 23 June 2015 8.30pm RTÉ One

 

Donal Skehan returns with a second series of Kitchen Hero: Donal’s Irish Feast and travels to seven counties to find interesting food producers.  He visits counties Donegal, Antrim, Meath, Fermanagh, Cork, Down and Tipperary and selects a wide range of ingredients, including goat meat, apple brandy, chocolate, rape seed oil and craft beer from which he makes the delicious feasts.

 

Programme five: Tipperary.

Donal heads to Tipperary this week and meets the producers of O’Donnell Crisps which are made using Tipperary grown potatoes.

 

In Thurles he visits Irish Piedmontese Beef, producers of a lean, low fat beef, made from unique Piedmontese cattle, a breed that is originally from Italy.

 

And in Clonmel Donal enjoys Barmbrack from Hickey’s Bakery, where they make this traditional Irish fruit loaf with a unique recipe developed by the Hickey family who are fourth generation bakers in Clonmel.

Dishes served at Donal’s delicious FEAST in Inch House include  Rosemary Rib-Eye Steak with Horseradish Sauce and Fennel Salad, and Barmbrack Parfait with Whiskey Prunes.

 

The new series of Kitchen Hero is once again sponsored by leading Irish convenience retailer SPAR, which has partnered with Donal on the show since 2011.

 

Kitchen Hero:Donal’s Irish Feast is produced and directed by David Hare of InproductionTV for RTÉ and the series is sponsored by SPAR
