Squeeze bottles (£2.97 Lakeland) More info

If there’s anything that makes a fella feel like a pro, it’s wielding dual squeeze bottles. All they’ll need now is a holster. I can’t help you there.

Stainless steel cooking rings (£5-8 The Cooks Kitchen) More info

For the home cook who likes their food to look as good as it tastes, here’s a selection of different sized cooking rings. Made from polished steel they’re ideal for entrees, vegetables and desserts and give a plate the professional touch.

Chef’s Checks Apron (£13.69 Lakeland) More info

Throw away the comedy apron, it’s time to get serious. This one makes any man look the business and is a great place to wipe grubby hands. Mine keeps meaty and onion smells off my clothes!

Tender: volume 1 -A Cook and His Vegetable Patch (£15 Waterstones) More info

The first in a new series, this heavy and beautifully presented recipe book is from one of the best chefs around. In this book, containing over 400 recipes, Nigel Slater shows how best to cook with vegetables and shares some of his classic recipes. It’s a very good read for anyone interested in cookery.

Creme Brulee Gift Set (£24 John Lewis) More info

We’re getting serious now. This creme brulee gift set comes with it’s own flamethrower. Perfect for caramelising a creme brulee, or lighting a cool cigarette.

Le Creuset 26cm Fry Pan (£51.67 Argos) More info

Get a workout while you cook with this cast iron Le Creuset frying pan. They’ve got a hardened non stick coating and are very heavy. Wimps or girls won’t be able to handle them.

Jimmy’s Farm Meat Hamper (£95 House Of Fraser) More info

It’s a meat hamper, full of the finest selection of prime cuts. Is there anything more to say?

A day course at The River Cottage (£100+ River Cottage H.Q) More info

Hang out at River Cottage H.Q and pick up new skills at one of the day courses. With everything from baking bread to curing meat, there should be something to please any foody fella. Prices vary depending on the course and they sell out quick!

Logitech Squeezebox Boom (£179.99 Amazon) More info

This little box, which is around the size of a loaf of bread, allows you to wirelessly stream all your music from a desktop or laptop computer. Not only that but it seamlessly connects to a huge range of Internet radio stations or the BBC iPlayer Listen Again service - perfect for rocking out in the kitchen, or catching up with The Archers.

Six Piece Global Knife set (£337.50 John Lewis) More info

Made from a single piece of ice tempered carbon steel, these knives will stay sharp for years. Perfect for speed dicing an onion, or gutting a fish. Perfectly balanced and well designed, once you’ve got the set you’ll never need another knife again.
