Hello and welcome to Table Manners. I'm Jessie Ware and I'm here in my kitchen with my mother. Hi mum. Hi darling. That's a different lip that you've got on. It's my hourglass red. I like it. Do you? How are you mum? I'm okay darling. I'm pretty tired. I bet you are. Because we have been going around the UK promoting my album. And selling thousands and thousands of copies. How many thousands of copies did you sell? We did over 18,000, which I'm really proud of. So thank you to everyone who bought it. Wow, is that the most you've ever sold in one week? Yes, it is. Wow, darling. So it's an amazing achievement. I'm very, very proud. But I'm also a bit tired. Are you platinum yet? No, I think it takes a while to be platinum.
Okay, darling. But I am a bit tired, so I have to explain. I was at a record store yesterday till about 10 o'clock at night. So I have called in help today. And please forgive me. I did exec the choices. Yeah. But my sweet Rosie has helped me today. Because I'll never lie to you, Table Manners. I'll never lie. But we've done... We. She has. A mob kitchen... recipe from their cookbook comfort mob and it's a baked sea bass that's got lemongrass in there it's beautiful you put crispy onions on the top limes um ginger and like a chili sauce on the side and then we're going to do it with coconut rice and then a lovely easter bell fridge which i've done before this kind of maple lime sesame seed um salad so it's all quite fresh because it's gorgeous week it's been really nice weather and you've made pudding yeah i remembered this week great i've made a chocolate coconut cake oh wow
and that goes well with this yeah I think so I love coconut I thought I had two big packs of desiccated coconut I hadn't so I had to buy more but I bought shredded coconut which I've toasted and put on the top of it I hope it's nice recipe is it it was a Sainsbury's recipe and it's they said it's like eating a cake and a bounty bar all in one I hope he likes bounty bounties are very divisive I I think if he comes from Kerala, Coconut will be something he likes.
