Simple French Food
Richard OlneyGeorge MorleyI love Richard Olney's Simple French Food. His precision taught me so much as I moved on from Katie Stewart & Constance Spry, via the great Elizabeth David & Jane Grigson, all of whom were my kitchen bibles. We're having his chicken w courgettes tonight. Simple & delicious. https://t.co/Fea5bfGVio
