Paul Heathcote

PAUL HEATHCOTE was born in Farnworth, Bolton and studied at Bolton Technical College.

Paul Heathcote’s Summer Pudding, prepared by Heathcotes Outside.

THIS traditional British pudding is perfect this time of year, when juicy summer fruits, such as blackberries, raspberries and strawberries are in abundance. Combined with brown bread and served with fresh cream from Chantilly, this is simple, fresh food at its best.

Contains: Summer berries, brown bread, sugar and gelatine.
