Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Cornish pasties

    • e_ballad on November 12, 2019

      Do NOT use the pastry recipe! There is a serious flaw in the recipe, presumably with the number of eggs. I have only just thrown it away after 6 hours refrigeration & it still has the consistency of cake batter. I used a hot water pastry recipe in order to salvage dinner, but the filling wasn’t worth the effort. I recommend giving this one a miss.

  • Lemon drizzle cake

    • Cati on October 25, 2018

      This cake is good flavour and texture, but I think the loaf tin size he quotes of 8" by 11" is too big. The second time I tried a 5" by 11" which was OK, but next time I might try 4" by 8".

  • Shortcrust suet pastry dough

Publishers Text

Real Food by Mike reminds us that we are what we eat – but that doesn't mean what we eat can't be delicious. Accompanied by full-color photography, this book from chef Mike McEnearney is perfect for health-conscious people who still adore things like pork belly and gooey French cheese.

The book is based around the idea of the physic garden, in which plants are included based on their medicinal benefits to the body – be that muscular (ginger, tumeric) gastroenterological (dill, oregano) or neurological (lemon, verbene, chamomile). The recipes, divided by season, are annotated with the medicinal plants used and their health benefits. Simply presented and easy to approach, these are recipes you'll want to cook and eat again and again.
