Mandy Miller Simmonds
Dancer-turned-cook and passionate home chef, Mandy shares her love for food through fuss-free, family-friendly recipes inspired by a life well-travelled. After a decade performing around the world and exploring global cuisines, she returned to the UK to focus on cooking for her young family. Her creations blend her globe-trotting influences with practical, everyday cooking, earning her a loyal following online. Now based in Kent, she spends her time crafting simple yet delicious dishes, hosting relaxed dinner parties, and sharing tips that make cooking a joy, not a chore. When she’s not in the kitchen, you’ll find her exploring farmers’ markets or hosting themed culinary evenings with her two boys, Toby and Charlie. This book is a celebration of her philosophy: good food doesn’t have to be complicated – just creative, flavourful, and shared with those you love.
