Teaching Dad to Cook Flapjack

A collection of recipes and memories from a family life, Teaching Dad to Cook Flapjack is a delicious food novel. Miranda writes... “The book was written after my mother’s death ... It started as an informal how-to-do manual for my dad, learning to cook and fend for himself for the first time. A man who could drive a car, tell you about the inside of a camera but couldn’t cook his own supper. I started by showing him how to cook some of Mum’s things. The first recipe in ‘his’ book was for Chewy Flapjack, which appeals both to his sweet tooth and frequent requests for ‘anything to go with a cup of tea?’ From Summerhouse Waffles, happily devoured in her brother’s summerhouse in Finland to Fish Stowaway from the beaches of Sydney, her mother’s famous Danish Apple Charlotte to her own dreamed-up Dulce De Leche Ice Cream, Miranda Gardiner invites the reader to share generations of family stories and mouth-watering recipes.
