Marc Corfield, ffresh restaurant’s head chef, commented: ‘I’m delighted to be involved in The Great British Cookbook alongside so many respected chefs. I chose to contribute my recipe for Lamb Cawl, as it is such a traditional Welsh dish, and epitomises what ffresh does best – offering fine Welsh cuisine showcasing the best local, seasonal produce.
