Marianna Leivaditaki is a natural storyteller. She grew up in Chania, on the Greek island of Crete, and spent her childhood helping out in the family-run taverna. After school, she carried around her blue notebook, writing down all the recipes she would like to cook, helped by the Greek grannies' kitchen wisdom. Marianna's love for the food of her heritage flows off every page, but she also has a contemporary take on it. As head chef of Morito in Hackney, she has championed high-quality ingredients, presenting them in simple, stunning sharing plates, and has been critically acclaimed for doing so.
These inspirational recipes derive from the SEA, the LAND and the MOUNTAINS. We all know the health benefits of a Mediterranean diet, rich in olive oil, fresh vegetables and fruit, nuts, fish and whole grains, as well as the importance of how you eat and appreciate your food. Marianna offers achievable, yet delicious dishes celebrating seasonal, fresh food that you can take time to enjoy with friends and family.

Chili-spiked carrots. Skillet-charred Brussels sprouts. Mashed
potatoes brightened with harissa and pistachios. These are just
three ways to put vegetables in the center of your plate. Here in
the U.S., meat is cheap and has been in the center of the plate for
centuries. The rest of the world, however, knows how to approach
vegetables, grains and beans not only with respect but with a
fresh, lively approach, one that transforms the ordinary into the
extraordinary. To get a vegetable education, we traveled to Athens
to learn how winter vegetable stews could taste light and bright,
not hearty and heavy. In Cairo, we tasted eggplant and potatoes
that punched up flavor with bold pops of texture from whole spices.
And in Puglia, Italy, we had a revelatory bite of zucchini enriched
by ricotta cheese and lemon. This is a world of high-heat roasts,
unctuous braises, drizzles of honey, and stir-fries aromatic with
ginger and garlic. And with 250 recipes, the possibilities are
nearly endless: A simple head of cauliflower can become Cauliflower
Shawarma, Sichuan Dry-Fried Cauliflower, or Curried Cauliflower
Rice with Peas and CashewsHumble cabbage travels the world to
become Butter-Roasted Cabbage with Citrus, Hazelnuts and Mustard;
Hot and Sour Stir-Fried Cabbage; and Thai-Style Coleslaw with Mint
and CilantroMushrooms are transformed into Stir-Fried Mushrooms
with Asparagus and Lemon Grass or Miso Soup with Mixed Vegetables
and Tofuand greens get the Milk Street treatment in dishes like
Pozole with Collard Greens; Hot Oil-Flashed Chard with Ginger,
Scallions and Chili; and Persian-Style Swiss Chard and Herb Omelet
It's never too late to get your vegetable PhD.
