Relaxed Brunch Entertaining with Miss Polly’s Kitchen

 

Miss Polly’s Kitchen is an Instagram favourite for inspiring home-cooked recipes. Polly has proudly launched her second cookbook, Seriously Delicious, with 70 new recipes available now at your nearest bookstore.

After spending countless moments in the kitchen crafting culinary dishes for loved ones, Polly enjoys nothing more than sharing beautiful food with her favourite people.

My top tip for hosting is to be as organised as possible so that everything is a breeze on the day. Try to not get too caught up over timing of the food and just enjoy being present with your friends.

Brunch parties are super fun. They don’t require too much work on the day, and lots can be prepped in advance. It makes for a more effortless way of hosting.
