Karren Brady On The Joy Of Eating... But Not Preparing Meals!
When people ask me if I like to cook the answer is always yes. But I guess the truth is that I am more of a feeder than a cook!
A ‘cook’, to me, is someone who can follow a recipe with ease, lay out the food so it not only tastes good but looks good, too, and can manage to have everything ready at exactly the same time. I never follow a recipe, don’t give a hoot what the food looks like as long as it tastes good, and when my roast chicken is cooked, my roast potatoes never are!
This is why I tend to make things that are all cooked in one pot so they are ready at the same time without even trying! Stews, shepherd’s pie and lasagne are my fail-safes.
