The Easy Cook Cookbook

Sarah Giles is Editor of BBC Easy Cook magazine. Her passion for cooking started with the encouragement of two 'fantastically inspirational' home economics teachers at school and having learnt all the basic, essential recipes and good old-fashioned techniques from them, she went on to cook as a hobby for many years, eventually becoming a finalist on Masterchef in the early years of the show.She has worked as a journalist and editor on many different lifestyle and home-interest magazines and became Food Editor of Easy Cook in 2006 and then Editor in 2007.'It's my dream job,' she says. 'When I'm cooking, I like to make tasty, nutritious food without spending hours in the kitchen - and that's exactly what Easy Cook is all about.'
