Cooking: Simply and Well, for One or Many

Product Information

A beautifully written instant classic that is every bit as exuberant and delicious as the man himself!’ – Nigella Lawson Ingredients: allspice berries; whole cloves; coriander seeds; fresh ginger; mustard seeds; white wine vinegar; gooseberries; caster sugar I love a cookbook that teaches me new techniques. Simple ones, preferably. I found just this in the chapter on chard. Coincidentally, I had returned home earlier in the day with a glorious bunch of rainbow chard. I usually cook it like spinach and was surprised to find that Lee had done so too until being put right by an Italian friend who told him that ‘chard is best when cooked to look good and ancient’. I pondered on that sentence for a while, wondering what it meant. Then I tried it. It felt counterintuitive, cooking the leaves beyond the wilted stage. I was concerned they may taste like old tea leaves after simmering for 20 minutes, but I put my trust in Lee. I need not have worried. A short while later I had a pan full of well-cooked chard which was silky with a light bitter flavour and yet a touch of sweetness too. I set about preparing Lee’s chard, caper and lemon salad. Here, the cooked chard is combined with the peel of a boiled lemon, capers, cider vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. A gorgeous salad – greens, with a pop of citrus and another of salty caper. Well balanced and healthy too. You can find the recipe below. Ingredients: unsalted butter; caster sugar; vanilla pods; eggs; egg yolks; plain flour; ground fennel; oranges; fennel seeds

A beautifully written instant classic that is every bit as exuberant and delicious as the man himself!’ Nigella Lawson Ongoing Covid restrictions, reduced air and freight capacity, high volumes and winter weather conditions are all impacting transportation and local delivery across the globe. The recipe states 3 ‘soup spoons’ which I think is designed to covey the character of the book, but I find affected and not that useful. As it was, I needed to add more sugar than my soup spoons dished up. Other than that a nice dish. I could take or leave the ginger, and would add a bit more vanilla next time too. Served with the shortbread in the same book, with lemon curd as suggested and the flavours worked well.Ingredients: boneless pork leg; shallots; Roscoff onions; garlic; thyme sprigs; summer savory; Treviso; radicchio tardivo; sage Jeremy Lee is an absolutely brilliant British chef . . . This cookbook is extraordinary, don't hesitate to buy it' Stanley Tucci Place lid on the pan, reduce the heat and cook gently. It will take about 20 - 30 minutes for all the water to disappear on the bottom of the pan. This is when the chard is ready. You want no trace of water in the pan at which point the bottom of the pan will begin to colour a little. Now remove the chard. Chop the chard and place in a large bowl.

Lovely thin biscuits with a good snap once cooled. I thought there wasn’t enough mixture to get the stated amount, but because you cut it so finely I did. The spread further when cooking and get even thinner. I served with the baked rhubarb from the same book, as well as raspberries and cream. Went down well and would do again.Ingredients: unsalted butter; caster sugar; breadcrumbs; plain flour; ground blanched almonds; oranges
