British chef Poppy O'Toole was once slaving away in Michelin-starred restaurants but is now a bona fide TikTok star with a few million followers, drawn to her fun-loving nature and her ability to come up with all sorts of inventive potato recipes.

In her new cookbook Poppy Cooks: The Food You Need, O'Toole teaches readers how to make some of her favourite dishes and says, "All the food is food I love to eat and many of the recipes were things I'd cook regularly anyway."
