But grilled pork neck is also one of the best things you can stick on the grill, preferably served up with home-made coleslaw – that’s happy food right there. And so are barbecued clams with a delicious tang of lemon and fresh herbs, or grilled squash with a delicious yoghurt dressing. The book offers tips and tricks for making your own spice mixes and barbecue-rubs, as well as pastas, home-made ice cream and delicious, slightly sinful cocktails. This is a cookbook that will make you really happy, especially when the sun peeps out and the mood is high. Make yourself good happy food the Happy Chef way.
