During a 24-year television and publishing career he has sold nearly 50 million books worldwide, and his TV series are watched by millions of people around the globe. His portfolio of successful restaurants now spans 22 countries around the world across 70+ restaurants, and his growing range of quality food and kitchen products features everything from pans and utensils to pasta, ready-to-eat grains, curry pastes, and much more.

I find him a tad annoying on the television but to watch the meals being prepared tempts you into trying them, with great results.
The roasted shoulder of lamb was a success but the smashed veg were a little weird, just reminded me of lumpy mash but this is easily solved.
The pappardelle with braised leeks and porcini pangratta was very flavoursome and will appear on my repertoire again.
The bubble and squeak, sausages & onion gravy was also beautiful but the amount of balsamic vinegar recommended was too overpowering for my tastes.
With a few very tiny alterations to the recipes I can highly recommend it
I made the Eggy Breakfast Crumpets for my husband one lunchtime (It's the only Piece of "crumpet" he's allowed at home!), and it's one of the quickest, easiest and economical things to make and can be used as a meal for any time of the day.
My three year old twins took an interest to it and I made a total of eight crumpets for breakfast the following morning, omitting the chilli, using bacon and sausage and my daughter polished off nearly three of them! What a successfull recipe. We are looking forward to trying some more recipes very soon.
On the positive side, the book is good when it comes to using the seasonal vegetables you have growing in your garden and his enthusiasm for using these is clear to see. The cookbook is definitely best for using during the summer months and I look forward to using some of the vegetable-based recipes. So, overall a three star rating which I hope is fair..
As for the recipes, they look great on the page and sound easy, but me being a bit of a coward in the kitchen, I wasn't sure if I could attempt them - Well how wrong was I !!! I am now a wizard at pizza including the base and the sauce and found them really easy and satisfying to do. I have cooked things that I would only ever normally buy ready made from a shop and it tastes sooooooooooo much better and I know exactly what is in it.
Love it - buy it !!!
Not enough pictures
Book a bit disappointing - why have all the lovely artwork for the TV series and not put it in the book. Ah well, still useful growing info in there.
