ABOUT JANE
Jane is a cook, food stylist, recipe developer and author. With over 40 years of experience, Jane trained at the Cordon Bleu, before teaching at Leith’s School of Food and Wine and going on to run her own catering company in London. As a food stylist, she tested and developed recipes for cookery books, magazines and TV. Jane is at her happiest when developing recipes, cooking, preparing, and eating (!) food. Her philosophy is simple: that cooking should be fun, rather than frightening or a chore.
Jane has written five cookbooks. Make It Easy and The Get-Ahead Cook both have an emphasis on empowering every cook to produce truly delicious, beautifully presented and – crucially – stress-free food for themselves, their families and their guests. All the recipes have prepare-ahead elements and include detailed instructions for getting ahead.
Just One Pan and Deliciously Simple were published in 2021 and 2023, respectively and her fifth book The Get-Ahead Christmas Cook - The Indispensable Companion for Effortless Festive Entertaining was published in autumn 2024 to great acclaim.
