Description
Book SynopsisWhat is it that we love so much about food in a French brasserie? Is it the delicious, time-honoured dishes cooked to perfection? Or the fresh, local ingredients and regional recipes? Or is it that most of these recipes started life in the home? Perhaps this might just be the reason they have such a special place in our hearts. Michelin-starred chef Daniel Galmiche brings us a superb collection of 100 classic, easy-to-follow brasserie recipes with a modern Mediterranean twist. A committed champion of French food and cookery, and someone who is passionate about making home cooking approachable, Daniel gives us irresistible recipes based on the classic principles of brasserie cooking: regional recipes, local ingredients and homely, comforting flavours. Try his aromatic Roast Leg of Lamb with Garlic and Lavender, the delicious grilled Fillets of Sea Bass with Caramelised Lemons or the wonderful Wild Mushroom Risotto, followed by Raspberry Clafoutis, Tarte Tatin with Rosemary & Toasted Almonds or Orange Souffle Pancakes.
