Prue: My All-time Favourite Recipes

Product Information

A strong cast and great observations of the new feelings, hopes and fears in relationships for a divorcee and her young teen daughter. Not all of the recipes in this book appeal, I’m not going to lie, fish on toast is not for me. But many of the recipes do look and sound great, and they also use pantry and fridge ingredients that most of us, perhaps those of us who cook a lot, that is, will have on hand.

I have cooked and been around food every day for most of my life and there are almost too many recipes to choose from, which is the reason why there is no theme to the book.

The novel follows Lott’s growing passion and obsession with Maddon Park after she takes the post of Head Gardener there. Working for the millionaire Brody Keegan and his spoilt young model wife Amber, she finds herself on an emotional rollercoaster. Brody is ignorant but passionate about the gardens; Amber however is so uninterested that she thinks ‘Who needs a vegetable garden with Waitrose six miles away.’

By contrast, Peter, who is helping Lotte to research the history of Maddon Park, is gentle and a good friend to Lotte and the children. The author is a renowned British cooking person and the book resulted from a year-long column she did that, if I understood correctly, was solely the name of the "toast" with a photo and readers were left to themselves to recreate using just the title and picture.

I spent hours reading this while sitting in the shade in our city garden and that at Cranberry Cottage. It perhaps enhanced the feeling of this book to sit in a garden reading it. The author is all for using good quality ready-made items but does provide some staple recipes in the last section of the book if you're one who is adverse to store-bought ready-made products.
