Anything that grows out of the ground, from a vine, out of a tree, and is plucked and eaten in its natural form is the best way to eat it. However, in practical terms, we cannot eat, say, a raw potato. So what’s the best way to cook a potato? Not French fries, that’s for sure!

After ‘raw’, the next best way to eat a potato would be a steamed – where it hasn’t been stripped of its nutrients. Boiled is pretty good but steamed is better. A steamed potato can be absolutely delicious.

The more you tamper and process the food from its raw state, the more you strip it of goodness. It then becomes what I call ‘non-live’ – gone from a ‘live’ state to a ‘non-live’ state because you processed and cooked all the goodness out of it. Fresh and cooked correctly, food is always delicious.

It’s just a question of getting your tastebuds back to* a place where you can recognise what food really tastes like. Then you start enjoying it. You shouldn’t make a radical shift if you’re’not used to eating like that, but you should start trying. Steam it and eat it with something you really enjoy – an avocado perhaps. Try low – fat ricotta or low – fat yoghurt with parsley for a creamy taste.
