Rachel Khoo has kindly donated two great recipes for Love Food Hate Waste to share with you. Terrine Forestiere and Poisson Meuniere....wild mushroom terrine and fish in a lemon and butter sauce - both are absolutely delicious.
An
ordinary girl from Croydon, Rachel Khoo was determined to get to grips with
French cooking. To learn more Rachel moved to Paris, not speaking a word of
French, and enrolled at Le Cordon Bleu, the world-famous cookery school.
Five
years later, she still lives and works in Paris, cooking up a selection of
classic French dishes from all over the country and giving them a fresh
makeover with her own modern twists.
She also runs
Paris’ smallest restaurant out of her boutique (aka tiny!) flat: La
petite cuisine
à Paris, where chefs and ordinary people
have eaten and raved about the food (including The New
York Times).
Rachel's new book The Little Paris Kitchen is available to buy from all good bookshops.
The 120 recipes in the book range from easy,
everyday dishes like Omelette Pipérade, to summer picnics by the Seine and
afternoon 'goûter' (snacks), to meals with friends and delicious desserts
including classics like Crème brulee and Tarte tatin.
It's a book that
celebrates the very best of French home-cooking in a modern and accessible way.
Real French food is no longer something only served in fancy restaurants;
Rachel will show how you can add a little French culinary touch to your
everyday life at home, no matter where you are in the world, or how big your
kitchen is!
