Real cooking, the sort that goes on in homes, does not have to be tricksy or difficult. A dish of chicken poached with leeks and carrots definitely isn?t fancy. But it tastes good, and feels essentially nourishing, to both body and soul, to cook and eat. I want you to feel that I?m there with you, in the kitchen, as you cook. My books are the conversations we might be having."Nigella Lawson has written nine bestselling cookery books, including the classics How To Eat and How to Be A Domestic Goddess - the book that launched a thousand cupcakes.
