When her sons inherited their father’s childhood home, once a commercial building for storing and packing pilchards, in a Cornish fishing village, LB thought it would be a helpful idea to record some of the recipes and memories of this extraordinary place.
It started as a notebook for her sons’ eyes only, with lists of favourite ways of cooking mackerel, monkfish and sole and how to make mayonnaise to go with the gift of a handsome crab or crayfish, but then it took its own momentum and became this very special book, full of recollections and anecdotes and fabulous holiday food.
As well as an inspiring collection of fish recipes, there are mouth-watering ideas for al fresco lunches such as Lemon and Garlic Chicken Kebabs, Greek Potato Salad with Coriander and Stewed Beetroot with Lemon Tomatoes. There are hearty autumn and winter meals to linger over, like Slow-braised Lamb with Flageolets, Leek, Chicken and Parsley Pie and Picasso’s Valencienne Rice. Puddings are particularly enticing and include Lavender Pears with White Wine and Blackberry and Apple Cobbler.
You don’t have to be on holiday in Cornwall to enjoy this lovely food. In fact, this treasure trove of recipes and memories will transport you to the seaside wherever you are.

About Lindsey Bareham

Lindsey Bareham started to cook seriously when she was asked to edit the restaurant section of Time Out. Over the years she’s cooked most cuisines and most styles of food, learning as she went along. She wrote a daily after-work recipe for the London Evening Standard for eight years and currently writes the daily Dinner Tonight and Friday Masterclass for The Times T2. She also writes a monthly column for Saga Magazine. Author of twelve cookery books, her latest is Pasties, an appreciation and exploration of the Cornish pasty.
Lindsey enjoys cooking imaginative, seasonal food with simple but explicit instructions, making real food accessible to the most inexperienced cook. Her speciality is turning ordinary ingredients into something special. Lindsey’s style is relaxed and easy, encouraging her readers to get stuck in rather than regard good food as the preserve of chefs and foodies. As an ex-restaurant critic and shopping sleuth, with a greedy interest in food, she is forever trying out new ingredients and combinations of food but a traditional cooking background provides a good balance of classic and experimental.
