Five of the country's brightest scientists and future engineers turn out to be shambolic shoppers and cooks. Spending 250 pounds a week between them, Cambridge students Jonny, Didi, Adam, Duncan and Charlie are slaves to their nearest convenience store, living on tinned, microwaveable and packet food. They only shop when they're hungry and never cook and eat together. These boys are about to go into the world with not the foggiest idea how to shop or cook a simple, healthy and economic meal. Can Paul and Allegra save them?
With recipes like spicy lamb shish kebab, veal ratatouille, fish pie, and meatball-and-chorizo stew, there's something for cooks of every level to enjoy.
