A delicious new cookery book from one of our finest food writers with gloriously pretty colour illustrations by Flo Bayley..Simon Hopkinson's first book, Roast Chicken and Other Stories, was both hugely successful and highly acclaimed, winning both the Andre Simon and the Glenfiddich Awards. In Roast Chicken, he returns to that winning formula of chapters based round key ingredients and gives recipes for utterly delicious dishes using them. So, we have a chapter on apples with a perfect applie pie, a chapter on curry with Constance Spry's original Coronation chicken and a chapter on duck with Braised duck with olives and classic Roast duck and apple sauce. Here, too, you will find Pear and ginger sponge, 'a good' Waldorf salad, 'a nice' Chicken casserole, Armenian lamb pilaff, Linguine with browned garlic, chillies and pine kernels, Grilled whole plaice with lemon butter sauce and what is, quite simply, the best Bloody Mary. Roast Chicken is quintessential Simon Hopkinson; practical recipes for food you want to eat, whether it's a quick everyday supper dish or something for a more leisurely weekend meal.
