Thom Bateman is one of the most compelling new voices in British cooking today. In Home Made, the rising chef behind the Michelin Guide-recognised restaurant The Flintlock brings together the precision and confidence of his kitchen and the warmth and nostalgia that shaped Thom, delivering classic and high quality British dishes at home. Largely self-taught, Thom stepped away from professional kitchens for over a decade before returning with determination, renovating his family’s restaurant during lockdown and sleeping on its floor four nights a week to bring it back to life. Since reopening, The Flintlock in Staffordshire has earned 3 AA Rosettes, national acclaim through Great British Menu, and a devoted online following of more than 4 million fans. Now, in his debut cookbook, Thom shares the recipes and techniques that define his cooking: comfort food, made better. Inside you’ll find dishes that feel familiar yet unmistakably elevated – the kind of food that delivers serious flavour without fuss. With clear guidance, clever techniques and Thom’s instinct for balancing nostalgia with modern cooking, these recipes are designed to build confidence in the home kitchen while delivering restaurant-level results.
