Cooking with Charles Royal

In this book, chef Charles Royal uses indigenous New Zealand ingredients, such as kawakawa, pikopiko, wild bush mushrooms and ferns to give traditional dishes a contemporary twist. Covering recipes from starters through vegetables and mains to sweet treats, Charles shows how to prepare stunning dishes with minimum effort that have a uniquely New Zealand look and taste. The book details how to locate, harvest and prepare the indigenous ingredients used and gives photographs of them up close and in the natural environment. Photographs of the completed dishes accompany each recipe, and these are complemented by scenic photographs of Charles gathering ingredients from the bush and cooking in beautiful outdoors locations....
