As we've all been cooking more for ourselves lately, it's become
commonplace to run out of ideas or feel fatigued from spending too much
time in the kitchen. In Fast Feasts, John Gregory-Smith puts flavour
firmly back into the kitchen with a selection of quick and easy recipes,
all featuring his signature Middle Eastern twist, which will make you
feel excited about cooking again.
The book is packed with exciting meals that are full of flavour and look
really impressive on the plate. The best thing, they are all super
simple to make, using accessible supermarket ingredients so everyone can
feel confident cooking them. Think gooey mac cheese, funked up with rose
harissa, ready to rock in under half an hour, wickedly good chicken
shawarma and chips - a recipe John picked up from his favourite kebab
shop in Lebanon, and a delicious Nutella borek. As well as full recipes,
John includes cheats on how to make a simple meal sing, from jazzed up
mayos, quick sauces and zingy spice mixes that you can keep on hand for
later or whip up in a few minutes as needed.
Chapters include mid-week lifesavers, working from home lunches, banging
brunches, easy entertaining and more. So whether it's killer comfort
food, tasty mid-week meal or a fuss-free dinner for friends that you're
after, this is the book for you.
