EASY GOURMET DISHES WITH BRIAN BINNS

Brian Binns won the Sunday Times competition for the Best Amateur Cook in Great Britain in 1975, and obviously in the opinion of his judgers who included Caroline Conran , a food writer, chef Michel Bourdin , and Michael Smith , a food historian, deservedly so. At the time he was a senior executive with a large national bakery group. Since then Brian has travelled throughout Europe, Russia and India, imparting his knowledge and simultaneously gaining experience of international cuisine.
