I was looking through this at my Dad's yesterday and it's actually really good. The recipes look nice and not at all difficult to make. Also at the end of each section there is a guide to growing that particular thing, such as courgettes, carrots, tomatoes, strawberries etc...

Might have to invest in this as a start to my garden growing this year!

Synopsis
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 realise 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!
