Nigella always impresses me because she manages to remain so calm and unruffled throughout it all, lol. Only thing is I find there's too much emphasis on alcohol in her recipes; obviously it's understandable because she's a kaafir, but there are some recipes that sound lovely and it's impossible to find an ingredient to replace the alcohol. In some things you can avoid red wine/sherry etc by using stock for example, but there are others where it just doesn't work!
I'm not sure if I know who you're talking about, although the name souns vaguely familiar...there's one Italian guy who often features on Saturday Morning Kitchen who I really like - nice simple recipes that are utterly delicious and very easy to adapt to your own tastes. Mmmm!
