ABOUT THIS COOK:

An enthusiastic cook with a weakness for Duck.

• What is the strangest food you have ever eaten?
  Sea Urchin. It was like licking an old fish bucket.

• What do you cook when home alone?
  I experiment. Three course roasts one night, a soft boiled egg and asparagus spears the next.

• Your most treasured kitchen possession:
  My spices box. Big, shamelessly plastic and packed with all manner of heavenly scented items.

• The ideal number of guests for a dinner party is:
  Is there one?
