Brian Turner's Favourite British Recipes
By Brian Turner
Chef Brian Turner’s quirky personality is garnished right through his latest cookbook titled, Brian Turner’s Favourite British Recipes, (Headline Book Publishing, 2003). The collection, in which he lists mouthwatering favourites from classical to traditional dishes, reflects the influences of Britain’s colonial past.

In more than 120 recipes, Turner delights readers with his food and cooking, celebrating the fine quality of British cuisine — from Scottish beef and Irish stew to Yorkshire pudding — not to mention many of the quintessential dishes that have become famous the world over.

The cookbook is a tribute to the Great British way of eating and contains a diverse range of beautiful pictures, providing a tantalizing peek into the appetizing and eccentric selection that is illustrated in Turner’s recipe collection. Not only do the photos showcase the precision and delicacy he puts into food presentation, but they are also a feast for the eyes.

In addition to learning from a wide variety of British recipes offered in the cookbook, you’ll also read a brief history of the dishes you prepare. Did you know that Beef Wellington was named for the first Duke of Wellington, who defeated Napoleon at Waterloo in 1815?

The book is divided into nine sections, covering everything from appetizers and desserts to sauces and accompaniments. Pick up a copy of Brian Turner’s Favourite British Recipes and bring new meaning to “home cooking.”
