Welcome to the first Cornwall Living’s Foodie Recipe Book. It seemed a natural progression to launch a recipe book. We have so many exciting chefs and producers in Cornwall, we have tried to include a wide selection from some of our favourites. And it’s a pleasure to welcome back Matt Burrell from Pavilion Boatshed and Pavilion Ice in Perranporth as Guest Editor. Each recipe is from a different chef so terminology may vary, but its all part of the charm of a collection of recipes!

For the followers of the Great British Bake Off, we have bread and cake recipes to try: with Baker Tom’s potato garlic and rosemary bread smelling and tasting wonderful. Or some delicious, sweet cranberry bread from Vicky’s Bread. And a gluten free coffee and walnut cake from the Twisted Currant Tea Room in Porthleven.

As you’d expect there are plenty of fish recipes – from Parma ham wrapped monkfish on risotto from Lusty Glaze, a gently spicy John Dory from Bruce at The Shore; to crab cakes from The Cracking Crab. For meat we have tender, slow-cooked beef cheeks from Gravy Boesti. Desserts include a chocolate torte to die for from Restormel Lodge, a melt in the mouth chocolate fondant from the Polurrian Bay Hotel, and a Cointreau saffron bread and butter pudding from the Falmouth Packet.

And why not buy your meat and produce from Trevaskis Farm so that you know the provenance of all your ingredients? Or, even simpler, order all you need from the Cornish Food Box Company – try their gorgeous cod recipe – and have it all delivered to your door.

But, if you don’t feel like cooking then we have a few ideas of great places to eat out too.

So poor yourself a glass of red, grab a pen and paper, and make a list of the ingredients you’ll need… one day!

perience a fusion of fi ne food and casual dining in laid-back luxury in the newly refurbished Grill at the Penventon Park Hotel. As part of the extensive refurbishment of the whole hotel, this renowned Cornish restaurant has been transformed into a decadent, grill-style eatery.

Classic decor styles juxtapose with modern surprises to create an opulent setting fi lled with alluring aromas. A feast for the both eyes and your taste buds; curious art collections adorn the walls and classic dishes such as chicken duchesse with truffle creamed potatoes stay true to traditional, Georgian roots, while leather and brass button back chairs, steampunk lamps and gourmet junk dishes including barbeque pulled pork topped mac ‘n’ cheese with jalapeño salsa, offer a modern contrast.

If you’re a meat lover, experience the ultimate in charcoal fuelled-flavour from the grill section. Devour dishes with a delicious, caramelised barbeque taste all year round from the signature wood charcoal oven boasting cooking temperatures of 500°+.

t e m r u p o i s G s o g Penzance’s top deli The Cornish Hen Deli in Penzance offers delicious handmade fare, created in-house by the team and a selection of other foodies. Here, you’ll find a whole host of tasty Cornish goodies, as well as the range of fabulous food from Italy and Spain.

What began originally as a market stall, doing the rounds at the local farmers’ markets, quickly blossomed, eventually putting down roots in the heart of Penzance to become a very popular

delicatessen and café. Found on the corner of Market P lace, this wonderful deli-café has been receiving rave reviews since opening.

Whether stocking the larder for Christmas, or simply looking for a delicious bite to eat, make this your first port of call in Penzance. Owner Sarah Shaw says: “We would love to help you, so please come in and take a look.

We have everything from little, thoughtful gifts to hampers, Champagne and chocolates!”

A Downright Delicious fish stew

Chocolicious

I Should Coco is an artisan chocolatier based in St Ives since 2009. “We’re a small enthusiastic team here, all working with a passion to bring you something new and totally different: chocolate, just the way you want it.”

I Should Coco recently launched a new venture in personalised chocolate: ‘Chocograms’, now available online. Choose the type of chocolate, your preferred toppings (anything from rose petals to jelly beans), and have your message written in chocolate. The handmade ‘Chocogram’, using the finest Belgian chocolate made with 100% cocoa butter, is then gift boxed and posted to the delighted recipient. From around £12 to £15, it’s much more fun than a card, and tastes better too!

I Should Coco also runs fun chocolate workshops, complete with fabulous views of the harbour and lighthouse from the window, bound to inspire your creations.

“One of my very favourite dishes of all time is a provencal fish stew”, says Downright Delicious Executive Chef, Richard Miles-Musgrave. “It works in every season, be it sitting wit h sand between your toes in the warm sun, or hunkered down in front of the fire wit h a large glass of red wine. It’s a perfect balance of delicate fish wit h a rich and hearty broth, bursting wit h Mediterranean flavours. Hake is great for this dish – caught in abundance around our Cornish coast almost all of the year. It’s incredibly sustainable and doesn’t break the bank, and this recipe uses every little bit of the fish!”

Richard’s stew is an absolute flavour sensation; a hearty broth combining tasty vegetables, garlic and herbs, wit h rich tomato puree and a hint of saffron, to counterbalance the hake, served wit h whole new potatoes and grilled pepper.

Mussels can also be added, if you wish, to add to the flavour and texture. Finally, serve wit h a large chunk of crusty bread and enjoy!

Guest Editor Matthew Burrell from Perranporth’s Pavilion Boatshed Restaurant tells us about his love of cooking. words by:

é ABOVE Matt outside the Pavillion Boatshed ì OPOSITE TOP n Matt and Maybel on Perranporth beach

ay back at the beginning of 2015, I went to meet the lovely Matt Burrell at his restaurant in Perranporth as he was to be our featured guest editor.

His passion for cooking and flavours shone through the whole conversation. At one stage he was talking about our Cornwall Living Foodie magazine and how much he enjoyed its celebration of so many great chefs, producers and great places to eat in Cornwall, and the obvious next step was to publish a recipe book! What an excellent idea! So when we finally decided to put a recipe book together it seemed only right to go back to Matt and ask him to be the first guest editor of our very first recipe book!

Matt explained. “Cornwall has become a real mecca for all things foodie over the last couple of years. I think we have some of the best chefs who in turn have access to some of the best ingredients and produce in the country. Whether it’s in your local pub, cafe or in a relaxed restaurant like mine, chefs are cooking up some amazing food; so with all the contacts that Foodie magazine has it seems a great idea to share some delicious recipes with your readers.”

Background

Cornishman Matt Burrell is settled back in his home town after six years in Australia and a spell in Italy. His parents have owned surf shops, a snack bar and pub in Perranporth since he was a child.

“All my school holidays and weekends were spent in and around Beach Road, and it’s where my ice cream shop ‘Pavillion Ice’ and The Pavilion Boatshed Restaurant

"Six years in Australia brought colour and different techniques and flavours to my cooking." now stand,” he says. “I guess retail and hospitality are in my blood; we even refer to this bit of town as home,” says Matt.

It was his grandfather, a chef who often looked after the young Matt, who influenced his early ambition to go into cooking. “So when I left school I wanted to do catering at college, but my mum wasn’t sure it was the right thing for me. In fact thinking about it

my mum has played a huge part in my life!” he laughs.

Matt started a Business Course at college.

“But for probably the only time in my life she was wrong – it wasn’t right for me and I dropped out. I wanted to go to London to work in restaurants, but mum suggested I went travelling and how about Australia!

After a short time in Sydney I thought she might have been wrong again – a lad from Perranporth in all the hustle and bustle of the city. I hated it!”

So after another call home, he hopped on a ferry to Manly, a beautiful beach resort.

“It was heaven! I quickly found work at The Bathers Pavilion. I worked front of house but the chef Serge Dansereau (Chef of the Year in 1990) took me under his wing and I started cooking. Then I decided to go to college, so enrolled on a three year Commercial Catering Course and continued to work at The Bathers.”

It was the huge diversity in Sydney that had the biggest effect on Matt. He describes it as a “truly multi-racial city” which has a fantastic impact on the food. “As a Brit I was in the ‘International Class’ at College

and surrounded by talented classmates from India, China, Pakistan and lots of other places, all with their own diverse food culture. At the restaurant, Bangladeshi and Pakistani kitchen porters often cooked staff meals and I was constantly amazed at what they produced from some fairly cheap cuts, the flavours they created and the herbs and spices they used. I found it utterly fascinating. And it’s had a major impact on the food I like to cook.”

Coming home

When some of his parents’ shops came up for lease, Matt’s Australian adventure came to a natural end. “After six years in Australia, it was time to come home. I really wanted my own restaurant to bring what I had learnt in Australia back to Cornwall – well, back to Perranporth to be precise. The restaurant used to be a surf shop and next-door is my luxury homemade ice-cream parlour.”

As ever the perfectionist with his dishes, Matt went to the University of Gelato in Italy to learn how to blend and balance the flavours for a real gelato before he started making ice-cream in Pavilion Ice in April

2012; and now sells his home made gelatos in two and five litre tubs – perfect for entertaining at any time. He transformed the old surf shop next door into his own light and stylish restaurant, which opened in November 2012. Since then he has built himself a really strong local clientele as well as being extremely popular with visitors. “We have plenty of visitors who come back to us every time they visit Cornwall. Many come back three or four times a year; and the great food on offer is a huge pull for them.”

To further encourage foodie visitors, Matt has joined forces with another family business, Burrell’s Holiday Lets, to offer their guests special deals in his restaurant with a free glass of Prosecco before supper and delicious, hand made, luxury ice cream from Pavilion Ice, free for dessert.

On his style of cooking Matt says: “‘Less is more’ is my mantra. I use good quality produce from small local suppliers I know and trust: local fish and shellfish caught on day boats, meat from the local butcher and seasonal produce. We change the menu in

bread Baked egg

line with the seasons.”

But Matt still thinks that many people are risk-averse when it comes to trying new things. “Whether it’s cooking at home or eating out, many people play safe,” he says. “For instance it is still very hard to sell fish on the bone. And fillet steak is one of our bestsellers – now it is a delicious fillet steak, from our local butcher and cooked to perfection but compared to slow cooked beef cheeks, it takes nowhere near as much skill, time or love to prepare.”

So what’s the solution? “First of all I make sure the front of house staff know as much as possible, I tell them about the food we are serving (and preferably ensure they have tried it) so they can explain to our customers.” The front of house team also meet the restaurants suppliers as they deliver fresh food daily, and know where the ingredients come from as well as the hours the chefs spend daily preparing it.

“Then I think it’s up to the customer.

Maybe have one or two restaurants that you eat at regularly so you get to know the

chefs, and for cooking at home get to know your butcher and fishmonger. Learn to trust them and be willing to try something they recommend. After all it’s what chefs do with their suppliers.”

Life as a chef is really busy; so on the rare occasions he gets to relax, Matt loves to sit on the sofa at home watching films. “I cook simply at home, but home cooked food on a stormy day with friends is another favourite of mine. My favourite eatery is Rafferty’s in St Merryn and Rick Steins or Nathan Outlaw for a special occasion. And I love dogs; I take my parents’ dogs for long walks on the beach. Perranporth is such a beautiful part of the world.”

A perfect

TIPPLE

Don’t just go for that same trusted bottle.

Unlock the depth of flavour with help from Johns Wine and Spirit Specialists. é MAIN A comprehensive selection of fine liquors from across the globe

W

ith the evenings closing in, our thoughts invariably turn to open fires, wood smoke; meals with the family, and toasting good health with a drink or two. And if looking for a gift for someone, a bottle of whisky is a great present, but there are only so many times you can buy Grandad the same bottle of Glenmorangie.

“We stock over 200 different whiskies,” explains Sam Hanson from Johns Wine and Spirit Specialists. “The problem with the standard releases from people like Glenmorangie and Glenfiddich is that they are endlessly blended to achieve consistency.

The result, though of a certain standard, lacks the depth and complexity of whiskies from smaller, less well-known distilleries.”

“What people see on the supermarket shelves are just the tip of the iceberg,” continues Tom Hanson. “If you want something really decent, you need to go to a specialist. And that’s not to say that you need to spend a fortune – we have some stunning whiskies starting from under £30.”

But what about people who aren’t into

whisky? Perhaps you have a son or daughter who’s just discovered that alcohol can actually be savoured and enjoyed; sipped rather than downed.

“If people aren’t into whisky, but still like the idea of sipping on a glass of something special, I usually point them towards rum,” explains Tom. “It’s a bit sweeter and a bit more easy-going, but some are every bit as complex and sophisticated as a top-notch single malt.”

The advice of a specialist can’t be overlooked either. Ask a supermarket shelfstacker for tips on choosing a whisky and he’ll probably laugh at you – a specialist is an expert in his or her field; they can listen to your likes and dislikes, evaluate your palate, and point you in the right direction.

f you love to tuck into a good old-fashioned, no-nonsense carvery, served with all the trimmings, then you’d better make your way over to a Kernow Carvery. The growing portfolio began with The Quintrell Inn near Newquay, swiftly followed by The Highwayman Dobwalls, near Liskeard. With both family pubs proving a roaring success, a third offering is opening at The Smugglers Inn, at Seaton near Looe, in January 2016. Each location offers its own unique charms, but one thing that unites them all is the delicious, locally-sourced produce and a warm welcome on your arrival.

A LIGHT BITE Perranporth is fast becoming a top foodie destination, thanks to The Pavilion.

“I have a confession,” explains Matt. “I really love real French food. Therefore over the years have been searching to find a recipe that would allow me to enjoy the rich taste of foie gras without the concerns, and luckily I found it!” This great recipe offers a real wow factor at any dinner party, however as the chicken livers need to marinate for at least 12 hours overnight before you can begin, and the parfait needs another night to set, you need two days to prepare this great treat.

Soul FOOD Bruce Rennie from The Shore in Penzance cooks up a storm.

“I love winter in this country… with the fresh cold snap bringing a sense of eager anticipation of the festive period” says Bruce. “Spices dominate many popular recipes at this time of year for good reason: to warm the senses and soul. You need a firm textured fish with good ‘meaty’ flavour to carry the weight of spicing and John Dory is a perfect example, though you could replace with monkfish or Gurnard.”

Top Tips

Monkfish is a good dish to serve people who are unsure about fish as it has a mild flavour and a meaty texture.

Always let the fish rest for about four minutes before serving.

DINING

Gravy Boesti is a hidden gem in the heart of Truro, a chic and contemporary bistro, where food is prepared before your eyes.

A braised beef cheek is a wonderful winter warmer, utilising a lesser-used cut, which slow-cooked becomes beautifully tender and soft, and should fall apart.

Another great benefit of this dish is it can be prepared days in advance as it keeps well.

Aof the TASTE sublime

Fowey Hall Hotel offers luxury rooms, a family friendly vibe, delicious food and sweeping sea views of the south Cornish coast.

Image courtesy of: Melissa

F

owey Hall Hotel is perched above the pretty sailing town of Fowey on the south Cornish coast with sweeping views over its estuary, port and out to sea. A grand Queen Anne mansion, thought to be the original inspiration for Toad Hall in The Wind in the Willows, its welcoming, unpretentious atmosphere makes it feel more like a friend’s country retreat, where kids can roam freely and parents can unwind.

Soak up the views from the terrace while children play on the lawns beyond, potter in the gardens or perhaps collect eggs from the resident chickens. Bring children along to the Ofsted registered crèche to play with all the toys and activities provided or drop them off to be looked after by the dedicated team for a complementary two-hour session. Older children can often be found in the Blue Room, with all the latest video games and family movies. The indoor 12-metre swimming pool is perfect for burning off a bit of energy.

Outside on the deck, a hot tub offers the finest views in Cornwall – the perfect spot to take some time out and soak up the sunshine.

The Spa, with three beautifully styled treatment rooms, features a wide selection of Elemis treatments; the ideal retreat for some all-important ‘me’ time.

Excellent Cornish cuisine is at the heart of the experience at Fowey Hall Hotel. Head Chef James’ experience spans over 25 years

working in busy hotel kitchens and cooking for celebrity weddings and events. James embraces Cornwall’s delightful selection of locally sourced ingredients. Fresh seafood is landed by Fowey’s fishermen; sausages are sourced from nearby farms and menus are created using the best local ingredients, even including herbs picked from the kitchen garden. Fowey Hall has been awarded 2 AA Rosettes for Culinary Excellence and a Highly Commended Taste of the West award.

Enjoy ‘Family Sundays’, with use of the wonderful pool, friendly crèche, outdoor zip wire and trampoline when you dine. A twocourse lunch is £16.50 per person or a threecourse lunch for £19.50 per person.

Afternoon tea (£18.50) comes complete with a selection of sandwiches, sumptuous homemade cakes and warm scones. All finished off with the hotel’s finest loose-leaf tea. Meanwhile, the perfect Cornish cream tea (£9) comes with a choice of two homemade scones with jam and Cornish clotted cream, or one scone and a slice of the day’s cake with the house blend loose leaf tea. It’s really not to be missed!

That’s

THESPIRIT The craft drinks revolution is underway at Johns, Wine and Spirit Specialist.

Cocktail

To celebrate the craft revolution, Tom and Sam have come up with this delicious cocktail using two small-batch products from Cornwall’s own Soul Spirits Ltd: Curio Cocoa Nib Vodka, and Dead Man’s Fingers Spiced Rum. ~

T

he craft drinks revolution is spreading fast. Gone are the days when we were limited to a handful of big brand beers, ciders and spirits – there are literally thousands of products out there, with new ones springing up all the time.

Take gin for example, as Tom Hanson of Johns, Wine and Spirit Specialist, in St Ives, explains. “Ten years ago we stocked three gins: Gordon’s, a cheap alternative to Gordon’s, and Bombay Sapphire (for people who didn’t drink Gordon’s). Now we stock nearly one hundred different gins, each with its own story, and each with its own unique method of production.” He continues: “Granted some are big brands in disguise, but many are the creations of people with a genuine passion for what they do, who have toiled away in garages and outhouses for countless hours to bring us something different.”

But the proof of course is in the pudding – what exactly do these craft spirits taste like?

Are they really that much better than the big brand alternatives?

“To help answer this question we conduct regular in-store tastings, pitting the big

boys against the small-batch competitors,” says Sam Hanson. “The response has been overwhelming.

People are not only impressed with the craft spirits, they are quite simply flabbergasted. Even something as supposedly premium as Grey Goose Vodka, is annihilated in blind tastings by much cheaper, small-batch alternatives.”

The same, of course, is true for wine and beer, and just about any other drink. After all, how can something mass-produced compete with a product that has been genuinely handcrafted?

But don’t take our word for it – next time you fancy a drink, give the supermarket a miss. Pop down to your local independent spirit merchants instead, and try something with a little soul.

Vicky’s Bread, home to beautiful French artisan breads.

This is a home-baking version of a loaf Vicky makes every winter in the bakery.

There is no added sugar in this bread, but the sweetness of the cranberries punctures the spice beautifully, making it the perfect centrepiece to a cheeseboard, and a great present to take to a Christmas meal.

FARM to fork

Trevaskis Farm, set in 28 acres of rolling Cornish countryside, is home to fantastic produce and much more.

T

revaskis Farm is one of those fantastic producer success stories that we love here at Cornwall Living Foodie. It’s a great example of a small business growing and diversifying to compete in today’s market. The Eustice family has run the farm near Hayle since 1980, although in fact the family has been farming in the area for over 400 years!

But the farm is not simply surviving; it is positively thriving. This it has achieved through offering a unique proposition; something that the big supermarkets simply can’t compete with. The quality is unsurpassed, with the family’s experience expertly matching the shoppers’ needs, all offered at a reasonable price.

“From your everyday store cupboard essentials to the more artisan product or foodie delight, we aim to provide it all under one roof”, explains Owner Giles Eustice. “We love good food as much as the next person so come in and chat with us about putting together a great cheese board, an idea for a seasonal salad or to share one of your favourite recipes.”

Provenance – where our food comes from – is a hot topic these days. We all like to hear

the words ‘seasonal and locally sourced’, but it doesn’t get much better than this. The farm grows and rears the produce and meats that are sold in the farm shop and served in the restaurant, so as far as lines from field to fork go, this is a pretty good one!

And if you really want to know where your fruit comes from with your own eyes, you can even pick it yourself. It’s a surprisingly fun – and educational – experience for children, enjoying the great outdoors, while also learning a bit more about our food too.

Giles continues: “In over 30 years of trading we have always operated with the same ethos, prioritising homegrown and home-reared produce. Featuring not only the finest fresh fruit and vegetables, butchery, fishmongers, deli, dairy and bakery but everything you need for your weekly shop at competitive prices.”

ë MAIN The farm shop stocks an extensive range of produce from the farm í BELOW Children love visiting the farm, meeting the animals and fruit picking
