The Country Cookbook: Seasonal recipes from my kitchen

Description

Let The Country Cookbook transport you to a simpler place and time- a place where neighbours leave boxes of surplus vegetables on the doorstep, winter provides an excuse to make a pie with the windfall apples, and there's time for a cup of tea and a slice of homemade cake. Inspired by the bountiful produce at her local farmers' markets, Belinda Jeffery chronicles the changing seasons and shares the recipes that punctuate her days. Whether you want to make a fine winter dish of chicken, slow-cooked onions and lemons, an autumnal pecan and maple pie to share, a fragrant coconut salmon in banana leaves on a hot summer night or a last-minute Christmas cake, The Country Cookbook will bring a taste of the country into your kitchen - and into your life.
