A frozen raspberry parfait
Raspberry and rhubarb crumble
When you sit down to a bowl of warm raspberry and rhubarb crumble, it’s easy to forget that the apple ever existed at all.
Raspberries with chicory, olive oil and burrata
If I had to choose only one of our soft red fruits, it would be the raspberry.
A blueberry clafoutis
A clafoutis is a traditional fruit pudding from the Limousin region of France. It’s usually made with black cherries but blueberries are equally good
Blueberry, honey and lavender mess
I was invited to the Arctic Circle in the autumn, walking in the hills, cooking by the ocean, before the snow came and the cod left. Blueberries grow wild everywhere.
Blackcurrant ripple goat’s milk sorbet
Blackcurrants are the tannin blood of July; wild and sour things, broken by the bridle of sugar and heat.
Redcurrant, carrot, orange and rose water salad
Sometimes I feel I cook by colours, or the sounds words make – drawn by a shade of red, a flower’s name, the iniquity of green.

Runner beans, leeks, cream and celery seeds
I’m standing between two walls of green, picking runner beans
Green beans with tarragon, garlic and toasted almonds
This isn’t the first time I’ve played around with the bean-and-tarragon marriage and I imagine it won’t be the last.
Tomatoes in the hole
This is such a good way to turn tomatoes into an utterly delicious main-course sort of affair, and it’s fun to make too.
Roast tomato and lentil soup
There is a point, just before summer falls into the arms of autumn, when the tomatoes are perfect for roasting.
