Tamasin Day-Lewis recreates dishes from her childhood in the West of Ireland bringing us a selection of traditional Irish dishes alongside her own creations. From Roast Mutton with Caper Sauce, Cured Mackerel with Potatoes and Soda Bread to international modern cuisine such as Mozzarella stuffed Meatballs, Cabbage with Green Chilies and Turmeric, and Chocolate Chestnut Terrine.

This is a beautifully presented book with enticing photography by Simon Wheeler and well written anecdotes throughout, creating a brilliant book. This is one of those books that's always worthwhile taking a second look at, as it reveals more than the pure simplicity it may originally seem.
