The method of cooking I find most rewarding is using up what I have, creating recipes based on seasonal produce, what meat I have in the freezer and any fresh herbs that I can get my hands on. My recipes should be used as a guide but if you prefer feta to goats cheese or beans to courgettes use them, play with a recipe until they’re your own. Most of my recipes are adaptations of old classics I’ve loved and experimented with for years.
