About this title

Review:

This is the latest cookbook from Thomasina Miers, the former Masterchef winner and co-founder of the Wahaca chain of Mexican restaurants. But there's not a chipotle in sight. It does what it says on the cover; home cooking that is easy to achieve and impressive enough to serve to guests. The recipes are not in the slightest big chichi. Dishes like baked crispy chicken thighs with green olives and sherry, chard and cauliflower curry, and pomegranate meringues will become firm family favourites. Source: Guardian's Best Books of 2017

This is the best of all worlds: recipes which are fuss-free but not without ambition. Thomasina shows how you can build vibrant and exciting meals into the course of life’s mad pace. Author: Yotam Ottolenghi

Delicious, sociable, surprising - made for sharing with your favourite people. Tommi's recipes are everything I love about cooking. Author: Lauren Laverne

Tommi is the most generous, and truly creative cook I know, and her fun and slightly wild personality comes through in every delicious bite. A true inspiration for working mums, I can honestly say she does it all. Author: Claire Ptak, The Violet Bakery
