Hi my name Sue and I am a cook-book-aholic. Neil Perry's "Good Food" cook book is the latest addition to my library, its two hundred and fifty five pagers of simple to cook recipes. Two reasons why I bought this book; for the simplicity of its recipes and the amount of heart that it permeates showing the love Neil has for his daughter Josephine through his recipes. I am my father's daughter, and if I ever publish a cook book, it would be one with as much heart as this one dedicated to my dear Daddy.
Today I made, his crispy skin salmon with braised chickpeas and herbed yoghurt (page 123). The chickpeas brought back memories of trips my father and I took to the road side Indian hawker selling steamed chickpeas wrapped in cones made out of yesterday's newspaper. I digress.
Back to the recipe. Simple to make, it takes only 30 minutes from stove to table. Top tips for reproducing the crispy skin salmon; 1. dry the fish 2. pan must be hot and 3. turn fish once on each side.
Enjoy!
