Simply Puddings,  Feast Days and Holidays and Quick Cookson Carlton.  However, guest appearances also include Channel 4’s The Richard and JudyShow, Ready Steady Cook, Battle of theChefs, Channel 5’s Open House with Gloria Hunniford andThe Terry and Gabby Show, Quick Cooks, Eastenders Revisited, BBC1’s Value for Money, Animal Park, Club Vegetarian, Ideal Home Cooks with Nanette Newman, and Kate Humble’s Webwise programme, where she told the world a thing or two about Tudor food.

In October 2006, Lotte fulfilled a dream by opening her own English Country Cookery School. One-to-one cooking days, cookery and gardening days, traditional cheesemaking, food and wine matching are just a few of the days on offer at her delightful country cottage in Buckinghamshire.

Lotte is one of a small group of specialised and authorized AGA Demonstrators. If you have just acquired an AGA and are not yet used to its company, or would just like some new ideas, then Lotte is the one to help!

The Hope Foundation, an Irish charity set up to help the street children of Kolkuta has just registered in Britain. Lotte is now one of the directors and is currently helping with its launch over here.
