This is a marvellous, new, full-bodied cookbook, big on taste and without the pretension.

All of these wonderful recipes are complemented by Lucy's useful cooking tips and techniques, ideas for substitutions, menus for quick dinners and creative entertaining, and an eye for fresh tastes, healthy ingredients, and interesting flavours.
