Gregor MacLeod is passionate about local produce. From his home on the Isle of Lewis, he shows us the people and places he goes to for the finest ingredients.

In Stornoway, Gregor visits the last place on the island to make kippers. There he lends a hand before taking his prized produce home to cook up Spanish-inspired kipper croquettes with home-made mayonnaise.

Gregor is the proud owner of 16 chickens who provide him with eggs aplenty. This often means a glut of fresh eggs. Gregor shows us how he puts them to good use in his showstopping pavlova tower. 'Waste not, want not' is his mott, so he turns the remaining yolks into a bright purple bramble curd to go between each layer of marshmallow pavlova.

Something sweet to accompany a coffee is a must. Gregor is a trained barista, so to go with his flat white he makes wafer twirl biscuits dipped in chocolate and hazelnuts.

Tha Gregor MacLeòid dealasach mu bhiadh ionadail. Bho dhachaigh ann an Leòdhas, tha e a’ sealltainn dhuinn na daoine agus na h-àiteachan gum bi e a’ dol airson a’ bhìdh as fheàrr.

Tha Gregor ann an Steòrnabhagh ag ionnsachadh mu bhith a’ dèanamh chioparan. A’ tilleadh dhachaigh, tha e a’ dèanamh croquettes chioparan le dreach Spàinneach is am mayo aige fhèin.

Tha Gregor gu math pròiseil mu na 16 cearcan a tha ga sholarachadh le pailteas uighean. Tha e a’ sealltainn dhuinn mar a tha e gan cuir gu feum anns an tùr phabhlòbha iongantach aige. Gus nach tèid càil a dhìth, tha e a’ cleachdadh nam buidheagan a th’ air fhàgail airson curd soileir-purpaidh a dhèanamh le smeuran. Thèid seo eadar gach filleadh dhen phabhlòbha.
Feumar rudeigin milis le cofaidh. Tha Gregor a’ dèanamh briosgaidean uafair air am bogadh ann an teòclaid is cnòthan-calltainn airson a ghabhail le flat white.
