Veglopedia

When watching Masterchef you may have found yourself asking: "I know who that John guy is, but who's the fella who makes strange noises every time he eats a desert?". Well, that desert lover is Gregg Wallace, and has been a very successful greengrocer for over 25 years.

To celebrate his love for veg, Gregg has released a vegetable cookbook titled Veg: The Cookbook. This new title takes you on a veggie world tour, and takes and in-depth A-Z look at everything green-fingered.



But don't think that this a just full of vegetable dishes and nothing else. Gregg incorporates fish and meat to compliment his dishes. From Carrot Cake and Red Tomato Chutney to Chilli Con Carne and Samphire and Salmon, Gregg has taken inspiration from some of the world's top chefs to create his veggie packed book.

Gregg also strongly believes in eating seasonally (that means no strawberries in winter!), as it is tastier and cheaper. To help readers he has created a seasonal chart to accompany the vegetables featured.

Veg The Cookbook by Gregg Wallace is available now
Price: £12.99
