For the final giveaway of my Blogaversary celebrations, the beautiful John Whaite has signed 2 of his Perfect Plates In 5 Ingredients recipe books for me to giveaway.
John won the third series of The Great British Bake Off in 2012. He now writes for The Telegraph, is a resident chef on Lorraine, is a presenter and judge on the daytime cookery competition show The Chopping Block and has opened his own cookery school.
Perfect Plates In 5 Ingredients is divided into Weekend Morning Plates for breakfasts and brunches, Hearty Plates of comfort food, Everyday Plates for easy week-night suppers, Worth the Wait Plates for slow cooking, Posh Plates for easy, impressive dishes, Many Plates for sharing and finally Sweet Plates for simple cakes and sweet treats. Each recipe can be created using only 5 ingredients, excluding store cupboard essentials such as oil, salt and pepper.
I absolutely love the simplicity of these recipes, making it easy enough for a novice cook like me to create impressive dishes. My favourite recipe in the book is the chocolate cake with a secret ingredient, oh my goodness, it is amazing!
