* This competition is now closed. * Thomasina Miers won BBC’s MasterChef in 2005 and since then, she has been catapulted to stardom, with a long list of TV series and books to her name. She also runs a chain of highly successful Mexican restaurants in London. Beyond all that, Thomasina is a wonderful food writer and her books are a testament to this. Her latest offering Chilli Notes is a celebration of her love of spice and heat. Thomasina proves the many diverse ways that chilli can be used in recipes. From chickpea and mango salad with Indian spices, Turkish eggs and even a decadent dark chocolate, chili caramel and macadamia nut tart, this book is a clever interpretation of one of the world’s most popular ingredients.
