How do you cook the perfect baked potato? What's a good midweek dinner party menu? And what do you cook for tea when you're married to TV food critic Giles Coren? Our guest Esther Walker answers all these questions and more.

Listen now or subscribe via iTunes.

We talk about Esther's fab books, Bad Mother and Bad Cook, and her blog, Recipe Rifle. There's some chat about who would win in a fight between Nigella and Jamie, and one of the Scummy Mummies reveals she has actually cooked a Yotam Ottolenghi recipe.

It's another highbrow episode as we have our first ever live fart on the podcast, and Esther reveals something about her husband that will make you feel physically ill.

Do check out Recipe Rifle for more from Esther and follow her on Twitter - @estherwalker.

If you want to see us live, we're appearing at the Ivy House, Nunhead on Thursday 7 May. It's an Election Cabaret Night so instead of the usual t*t jokes, you can expect cutting-edge political satire! I.e. Lots of jokes about Nigel Farage being a t*t. Early bird price is £8.50 so get your tickets now from We Got Tickets.

Thank you for listening!
