JAMES Martin’s Saturday Morning saw the celebrity chef have an uncomfortable exchange with his guest this weekend.
In the latest episode of the show, James welcomed acclaimed restaurateur Asma Khan into his ITV kitchen.
As the pair collaborated on a mouthwatering dish, things took a slightly awkward turn when Asma became concerned about a pan crackling nearby.
Eager to maintain control in his kitchen, James quickly told her: “Don’t worry, I’ve got it under control.”
Trying to ease the tension, Asma responded: “I’m not trying to stress you out. I’m just curious to see what happens next.”
Attempting to steer the conversation back to their cooking, James asked “Do you want this peeled?”
Known for her no-fuss cooking style, Asma replied: “No need to peel it.”
James agreed, adding: “I wouldn’t bother peeling it either.”
Their exchange took a more humorous turn when Asma joked: “There’s only so much torture I can inflict on you in your own kitchen.”
The two shared a laugh, and the atmosphere seemed to relax as they continued with their culinary task.
Despite the brief tension, the duo managed to deliver an entertaining segment.
James is now back on screens after taking a break to go on his summer holidays.
He took his relationship to the next level as he brought his new girlfriend Kim Johnson with him to an adorable B&B in France.
James and Kim were all smiles in a photo snapped at their holiday lodgings, the Le Jardin de Rose, as James placed a loving arm around his new love’s shoulders.
