Quick 'n' Easy Cooking using the simplest ingredients and the least number of utensils.
Having spent many years (17  altogether) preparing food both in the U.K and Europe I have gained experience of making simple food taste good, by keeping it quick and easy. Working alongside other cooks and sharing recipes and methods has proved to me that quick and easy cooking, of simple food cooked well can leave you feeling satisfied

Now I have retired and have all the time in the world to prepare exceptional dishes, I prefer to keep things simple, after all who likes to spend all day bent over a stove, been there done that and more! Plus I detest the washing up so I tend to use as few pots and pans as possible
.
