Extract

This is the way I cook at home – a wander around the garden to find the flavours for our evening meal! Even if it's just a bunch of mint or parsley, our everyday dinners get a fresh and vibrant lift.

Spring

The promise of spring is unveiled in fat fruit buds and fragrant blossom. Soldier–like spears of asparagus emerge from the bare, cold earth while seeds that have lain dormant and seemingly lifeless for months spring to life, banishing winter in a flush of soft green growth. It's hard not to feel some sense of wonder. How does a lettuce become a lettuce and not a tomato or a bean? The magic within each seed, in a carefully coded blueprint, has evolved over millenia for survival and success. Emerging from the cocoon of winter, we savour the first delicate tastes of the new season in food that is light, fresh and revitalising.
