This book is very close to my heart. It`s about no-nonsense, simple cooking with great flavours all year round. When I began writing it, I didn`t really know what recipes I would come up with, but something began to inspire me very quickly. . . my vegetable patch!

I came to realize last year that it`s not always about looking out at the wider world for inspiration. Being at home, feeling relaxed and open, can also offer this. I love to spend time at home in the village where I grew up, working with the boss, Mother Nature, in my garden and seeing all my beautiful veggies coming out of the ground.

Inside you`ll find over 100 new recipes, plus some basic planting information and tips if you fancy having a go at getting your hands dirty as well!
