Welcome to Frost Bites, a simple easy to use site that will take you through a few of my favourite recipes; which I have compiled for publication.
I will show you on an ongoing basis how to:
- Prepare
- Cook
- Enjoy
your food.
Let us eat, drink and be merry!
Allow me to introduce myself; my name is Ken Frost, a trencherman of the old school. I have travelled and worked around the world (I am a qualified accountant), and have a passion for food.
I believe that food should satisfy the following requirements, my five guiding principles:
- It should be wholesome.
- It should be well prepared and cooked.
- It should not be “drizzled” in a sauce that masks its natural flavour.
- It should not consist of one very small grated vegetable placed on top of an even smaller piece of undercooked meat.
- The cooking and eating should be enjoyable.
I am self taught in the fine arts of eating and cooking. The former began when I was a baby, the latter when I was seven.
I believe that modern cuisine and celebrity chefs have become, much like supermodels, fascinating to watch; but unattainable to the “average Joe”.
I would like to share, with those of you who agree with my view, my favourite recipes and tips. You can rest assured that the recipes are perfectly possible to cook by anyone:
I have cooked each one myself.
I have cooked all of them in a perfectly normal apartment kitchen.
They have all been eaten, and enjoyed, by my friends and relatives (no paid for “casting company friends” have been used, or harmed in any way during the compilation and testing of these recipes!)
I have collated 120 of my favourite recipes, together with anecdotes of my travels, in a book “Accountants Can Cook“.
Enjoy your food, enjoy your life!
