As the sun comes up, Julius is starting the day feeding his adorable, bottle-fed lamb and goat Bramble and Hazel followed by a delicious breakfast of pan-fried Asparagus and Poached Egg on Toast with his own fresh laid eggs. He's hitting the veg garden building a brilliant mini veg plot, that we'll be tracking all summer. It requires no digging, showing what can be done with the minimum of space, then with the work done Julius is picking home grown green beans and fresh peas for a simple and very divine Garden Risotto. It's a blueprint for a recipe you can put your own spin on with whatever vegetables you have to hand. Then Julius is roping in his brothers Jocelyn and Lucian to help on the smallholding. He's exchanging a day's hard graft, fixing up the fences and moving his rams, the wildest animals on the farm, in return for a trip to the beach for an icy evening swim and flame grilled dinner in the great outdoors. He's making Herby Lemon Chicken Kebabs, with a great fool proof marinade, served with gorgeous Grilled Vegetables and even grilling the Lettuce. There's a tasty Chimichurri sauce and S'mores the classic American marshmallow and chocolate fireside treat. All the eats are cooked over open flame in a fire pit at the top of the hill behind the farm as the sun goes down and we join the brothers cooking, tucking into the BBQ and have fun joking with each other.See less
