About

I like pork! It is one of the most flavoursome meats, succulent and versatile. Here I have combined it with three cultivated and one wild mushroom. I had considered initially using three oyster mushrooms in different colours, but when we were shooting the food pictures a friend came along with a huge chicken of the woods just in peak condition! What would you have done in my place?
