Abstract
The Galley charity cookbook showcases the skill and talent found within the demanding industry, thanks to the contributions of 20 professional chefs with a connection to the Royal Navy.

Thanks to the sponsorship of ESS Defence, all proceeds from the sale of every copy will go towards the charity’s essential work in support of serving personnel, veterans and their families.

Britain has always had a rich naval history, with food often playing a ‘central role’ on ships and at events from the staple ‘hard tack’ biscuits of Admiral Nelson’s days to the feasts prepared by today’s Royal Navy chefs.

Each one of the 20 chefs has shared a starter, main course and desert alongside their journey through active service and beyond. There is also a seven hour lamb recipe form Michel Roux Jr, who himself served in the French military.

Michel, chef patron at Le Gavroche, said: “I am so proud to be supporting The Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charity and the incredible projects and facilities it provides to improve the lives of Royal Navy families and veterans.

“Not only is this book filled with delicious recipes for you and your family, but every purchase will serve to improve the quality of life for all those who serve and enable this wonderful charity to continue its incredibly worthwhile work.”
