Dining with The Durrells beautiful recipes from the family cookbook

Transport yourself to Corfu with Louisa Durrell’s recipes, recreated by food director elisa Roche

When I heard that close friend of the Durrells, botanist David Shimwell, was bringing out a book that included recipes from Louisa Durrell’s worn-out cooking notebook, I begged the publisher to let me recreate a few for modern times. Here are three simple dishes, which, I hope, will transport you to lazy breakfasts on the terrace, dusky picnics among the olive groves and snacks shared with a menagerie of beasts. and all perfectly in time for the joyous return of The Durrells on ITV.
