Shaun Rankin lives and works on Jersey, and is a champion for all the wonderful produce the Channel Islands have to offer, particularly fresh seafood and seasonal vegetables.

This collection of recipes contains some dishes with sentimental value for the chef such as his mother's Ham hock soup recipe and Lobster and chips, the chef's favourite meal. There are also some great spring suggestions for cooking with Jersey Royals, whether sautéed in a Jersey Royals, asparagus and Parmesan salad or roasted with Goat's cheese, pine nuts and fresh figs.
