'You are what you eat'...aired 11th October

[lea-lea]

Does anyone who watched the programme tonight remember the recipe for the seasame balls she made? I looked on the offical website and it doesn't say. I also just searched the net for the recipe and it says they should be deep fried, not baked. In the show they were baked and I want to know if that means that some of the ingredients would have been different?

Yes, Im also posting this question in the food and drink section before anyone tells me!
