Kirsten Gilmour, chef and owner of The Mountain Cafe in Aviemore, is as happy in the Highland hills as she is cooking up a storm in the kitchen.
Kirsten pedals away the stresses and strains of life in the kitchen at The Mountain Cafe.
When Kiwi chef travelled from London for a weekend of skiing in Aviemore she had no idea that the Highland town would capture her
imagination and her heart.
Arriving in the midst of a busy ski season, she tried to hire skis from an outdoor shop and ended up working there.
She said: ‘I met my husband during that time. I didn’t just stay for the skiing.
‘He’s a mountaineering instructor and we’ve had all sorts of crazy adventures all over Scotland. I love getting outdoors, it keeps me sane.’
This recipe was originally published in the Scottish Field, June 2017 edition.
