A Year in a Cottage Garden (plant-based recipes from Cornwall)
A Year in a Cottage Garden is a lovely book by a young vegan cookbook author who is fast turning into a next-generation version of Nigella Lawson. Discover 80 simple plant-based recipes, from the heart of Cornwall.
Read up on food safety for people and pets. Bin allium scraps (onion, leeks, garlic, shallots, chives) and tomato/citrus/rhubarb scraps (acids may harm compost creatures).
Fully remove tinned lids (or pop ring-pulls back over holes) before recycling, to avoid wildlife getting trapped.
Take a seat at Maddie’s table, as she cooks delicious meals in her cosy cottage, and step inside her world as she tends to her vegetable patch, strolls along the stunning shore to take in the sea air, and hosts supper in her home or (when the weather allows) on the beach.
Recipes include:
- Homemade Crumpets
- Warm Butter Bean, New Potato & Tomato Salad

- Roasted Butternut Squash & Sausage Gnocchi
- Mushroom and Lentil Pie
