It's the season finale and my guest today is Manon La Greve. Born and raised in France, Manon came to the UK to work as an au pair and then rose to fame as a quarter finalist on The Great British Bake Off in 2018 and has become known and loved for her delicious French inspired recipes. Described as a culinary sensation, she’s now the author of  two cookbooks,  She says she takes inspiration not only from her French heritage, and her London discoveries, but also from her travels around the world. When asked to describe her cooking style in 3 words she’s said it is French food made easy. Thank you so much to the brilliant Maldon Salt for sponsoring this season of Desert Island Dishes.
