"October is my favourite month. I love the way the autumn leaves mark the changing seasons with their golden browns, rustic oranges and deep reds. I love the crisp, refreshing air and all the wonderful ripe vegetables bringing more rich colour. October also marks the welcome return of comfort food. I hope these dishes, full of favour and in colours worthy of an artist’s palette, capture exactly what you want to be eating as the seasons change."
