In this book of original recipes the author has turned the tables on our traditional view of the vegetable's place in a meal. Vegetable flavours and textures are combined in new ways. This is not a vegetarian cookbook as meat and fish appear as ingredients in many of the recipes: Special pancakes with a Puree of peas and Sole cooked in Champagne; Prawn and Cucumber Soup; Tomato Horseradish and Yoghurt Sauce.
