Cocina simple de Yotam Ottolenghi

The books by Yotam Ottolenghi, one of the chefs who has done most to change the way we understand cooking and eating vegetables, are always a feast for the senses. Cocina simple is his latest and long-awaited work.

Original and delicious, the recipes in Cocina simple are much more accessible here thanks to six very simple principles, each marked by its own pictogram (based on their Spanish initials):

• S = Sofisticado pero fácil (sophisticated but easy).
• I = Imprescindibles en la despensa (pantry essentials).
• M = Menos es más (less is more).
• P = Pereza (lazy).
• L = Listo con antelación (ready ahead).
• E = Exprés (express).

Thanks to Ottolenghi's guidelines, putting a fabulous meal on the table in under thirty minutes, making a tasty recipe in a single pot or serving a dish prepared in advance are all much simpler, more relaxing and more fun – both for those who don't want to give up excitement and daring in the kitchen and for those who don't want to overcomplicate their lives when they cook.

The critics have said...

Condé Nast Traveller:

«More than a chef, Yotam Ottolenghi is a true magician of simple cooking made from vegetables. As such, he pulls countless surprises and tricks out of his sleeve in his celebrated Simple, an entertaining recipe book with more than 130 recipes.»
