Winter on the Farm

This is a lovely cookbook that reads like a memoir.
A rare combination of a love letter to cooking, family and farm.
Evans most recent cookbook (July 2011) gently showcases the food he cooks for his family at Puggle Farm in Tasmania, also the setting for his popular TV series 'The Gourmet Farmer'.
When it’s time to swap cotton sheets for flannelette, thongs for boots and your straw gardening hat for a beanie, you can’t but help thinking of hearty soups, slow braised casseroles, yummy puddings, velvety roasted vegetables… and treats to eat while drinking hot tea.
I for one have become addicted the delicious, healthy and dead-easy-to-cook Paprika Braised Chickpeas with Kale - a single great reason to grow this vegie. 
Another cook book you will actually use, again and again.
