Mexico has given the world some of the world's most loved ingredients including tomatoes, chilies, avocado, vanilla, chocolate or that most staple of ingredients; corn, but never has Peter seen them all used quite like this! From tacos to tamales, salsas to sizzling pork, Peter discovers it all before creating his own versions. Filmed in some of the most spectacular locations Peter has ever ventured to, Mexican Fiesta with Peter Kuruvita is a sensory overload for the eyes and taste buds.

Guided by some of Mexico's most intriguing and colourful local characters, passionate farmers and indigenous tribes, Peter travels south from the US border by all modes of transport - truck, train, boat and even a rickety old car. From the deserts of the north to the jungles down south, Mexico's forever changing landscape provides a backdrop like no other. In a world bursting with the celebration of life and food, Peter finds inspiration in the rich traditions and native ingredients of this diverse and ancient land.
