With a little help from Valentine Warner

I was browsing the cookbook section on amazon.de when I spotted two Valentine Warner cookbooks. I don't know how much they are in the UK but the German versions cost me 4,99 Euros each and that is a real bargain for a hardcover book no matter whether a cookbook or a novel.
I really like Valentine Warner's concept of using fresh seasonal ingredients to maximise the taste and perhaps I even more appreciate that his recipes are easy and quick to make. Don't get me wrong, cooking is great but I just don't have the patience to spend my whole day in the kitchen.

So here they are.








Yes, the last picture shows vegetable chips. :) I love them and this is another product I can't buy here in Germany - ok, let me specify this, I can't buy them at a reasonable price. So hopefully this cookbook will teach me how to make them myself!
During my last visit to the UK I bought every variety Tyrell's make. I really like the packaging. It's quite retro.








I know a lot of people loathe beetroot but I really like it - especially fried! :)

See you soon and have a nice evening!

  1. Beetroot? Intwesting! I'd like to taste this one, I can't imagine it but I love vegetable chips and I love salt so I'm ahead already.
