'As an eight-year-old I had cuttlefish stewed in its own ink with garlic and tomato and I still remember it. Spanish cooking has been for me over the years a memory of simple but completely satisfying flavours. It's a memory of happy times in Spain tied in with thoughts of old cathedrals, vast horizons and fishing boats somewhere in the Mediterranean unloading wooden boxes of dark red prawns...'
