The big easy

THERE’S a sneak preview today of my new book, which hits the shops this week.

This one, called Easy Entertaining, is for those who like to have a few friends around for brunch, lunch, coffee, afternoon tea, supper, a nibble around the fire or even a formal dinner party.

Since my first television series, my mantra has always been to keep it simple - it doesn’t have to be a four-course meal.
