Brian Turner was born and brought up in Yorkshire, his culinary background shaped by his experience of eating and learning to cook "good English food" - steak pudding, fish and chips, pork pies and trifle were all family favourites when he was a lad. Now one of the country's top chefs and restaurateurs, and chairman of the Academy of Culinary Arts, he has never lost sight of the Great British traditions that formed the foundation stone of his career. With his typical brand of banter and good humour, he leads us through his collection of classic recipes, from mulligatawny soup and Welsh rarebit to shepherd's pie and spotted dick - everything from comfort food to sophisticated dishes for modern entertaining.
