Jeez Louise, Tom Parker Bowles really knows how to throw a good party, and the launch of his new book Let's Eat Recipes From My Kitchen on Selfridges' rooftop was the scrummiest. The book is filled with just the sort of food I adore at any time of the year: warm and mushy comfort foods, especially those that simmer for hours. Tom's strange ideas concerning saturated fat - it would have been nice to see more 'low fat' workarounds in some of these recipes. It must be infuriating, because Parker Bowles is pretty nifty in the kitchen in his own right – a point proved by this latest book, which is a collection of the recipes he has perfected over the years.Some of the 140 recipes in this book are inspired by food cooked for him by friends and family, some by more formal dinners, some by his travels. Now, with this deeply scrumptious book, he reveals how talented he is at the first bit: the cooking. Nor should we forgo slow-cooked lamb, roast Chinese duck, Keralan pork curry or rich jambalayas, cassoulets and daubes – you’ll find recipes for all of these here. tom has cooked every recipe in his home kitchen again and again before including it in this notebook.
