Rick Stein's Mediterranean Escapes
Sardinia and Sicily
S1 E2:
In Sardinia, Rick watches as the local fishermen catch mullet using methods that date back to Ancient Roman times. He then boards a ferry for Sicily. In Palermo, he finds one of the best pasta dishes he has ever tasted. Rick then rustles up a simple vegetarian pasta with tomatoes, capers and mint using capers from the island of Pantelleria, and pasta alla norma, with aubergines, tomatoes, chilli and ricotta salata cheese from Catania on the east coast of Sicily.
