About this ebook

Meals and memories from Princess Diana's personal chef.

All families have their favorite foods?including the House of Windsor. Darren McGrady, personal chef to Princess Diana and chef to the royal family for fifteen years, has collected more than 100 recipes in Eating Royally and behind-the-scenes stories that offer insight into the royal family's lives.

From hearty cooking to gourmet eating, these dishes will impress even the most discerning palates. Recipes include traditional English fare, and, of course, royal favorites, such as:

  • Spring Asparagus Soup with Dill
  • Poached Eggs en Croute
  • Gleneagles Pate
  • Earl Grey Tea Cake
  • Gaelic Steaks
  • Royal Tea Scones
  • Eggs Drumkilbo
  • Summer Pudding
  • Iced Praline Souffles

McGrady witnessed the rich history and surprisingly normal family life of the Royals, all while preparing elegant food with classical French influences for their table.

Filled with touching photographs, mementos, and personal messages, Eating Royally chronicles one chef's extraordinary experiences within the walls of Buckingham Palace.

    I read this book with interest since he was actually the cook. He had great little stories about his time in Diana's employ. I love cookbooks so the receipes were a hit with me. Some of the dishes were a little exotic for me but since they love them in England I would probably try them just to say I had experienced English cuisine. They could probably say the same about American food.

    If you want to know what the Queen eats or what Princess Diana ate this is the book for you. It was written by one of the royal chefs who then went to work as the private chef of Princess Diana.

    The book is broken down into 7 chapters: The Royal Year, Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, HMY Britannia, Balmoral Castle, Ssandringham House, & Kensington Palace.

    Recipes include, but are not limited to: earl Grey Tea Cake, Herbed Crepes w/ Goat Cheese & Honeyed Salmon, Raspberry Tartlets, Beef Wellington, Choux a'la Cherbourg, Cheese Souffle, Isle of Wight Pudding, Old English Apple Pie, Chicken & Leek Pie, and Iced Coffee.

    Wonderful recipes, easy to follow combined with mementos, invitations, & personal photographs.

    This is a keeper.
