Jane Curran, w&h Food Ed writes: April is a lean time for British produce.Still, there are plenty of British veg around.
Fish - brown shrimps, crab, lobster, langoustines (scampi), lemon sole and wild salmon (not Atlantic which is under threat).
Spring lamb is also coming in.
Delicious Jersey Royals begin - they are best steamed and served with butter, a little Maldon salt and chopped fresh mint.
Greens are plentiful. Choose from watercress, spring cabbage, purple sprouting broccoli, spinach and kale.
Outdoor rhubarb is around and you’ll see the start of English strawberries.
