TV favourite James Martin’s knock 'em dead collection of brilliant recipes.
James’ impressive cookbook portfolio has given us British classics, hearty favourites, and mouth-watering desserts, and still he has more ideas to share; and they're getting better and better. In his latest book, James is out to remind us all that, at heart, he's a skilled chef who knows his way round a kitchen.
Great food needs no dressing up and these recipes speak for themselves – fantastic ingredients, clear-cut methods and flavours that pack a punch. These are dishes you will actually want to eat, easy enough for cooks of every level, but impressive enough that restaurant chefs would be proud to serve them. James' signature no-nonsense style is here, as well as something we don't get on TV – a peek into his real chef's background, with snapshots from the heat of professional kitchens around the world.
Bold, unfussy and all about the food, this is the book James Martin fans have been waiting for.
