Full of fresh food simply cooked, this book adds a global twist to seasonally available produce. It explores a range of exotic and more familiar flavour and aroma combinations from around the world. Chilli, ginger and lemongrass set the tone for a chapter inspired by the ingredients of South-east Asia. Cinnamon, nutmeg and other earthly spices set the mood for a chapter that evokes the colours and flavours of North Africa and the Middle East. Basil, sage, rosemary, thyme and oregano infuse a chapter reminiscent of the Mediterranean but with a thoroughly contemporary twist. Continuing in the Marie Claire tradition, this book aims to inspire with its modern, fresh approach to food and entertaining.
