MINIMAL EFFORT TIME ON YOUR HANDS A BIT ON THE SIDE
How much time do you have to cook dinner tonight? Clodagh McKenna's
brand-new title is inspired by how much time you have in your busy
life and is packed with flavourful, speedy recipes that you can
cook from start to finish in 10, 20 or 30 minutes. Destined to
become the most useful book in your kitchen, In Minutes is filled
with 80 recipes that will soon be weekly staples, from Warm Lentil
Salad with Goat's Cheese to Spring Garden Gnocchi and Chicken Katsu
Ramen. Divided into three chapters: 10-minute recipes - speedy
salads to make you glow, pastas for the whole family and no-stress
noodles 20-minute recipes - light and crispy tempuras, spicy
curries for vegans and vegetarians alike, and single-serve ramens
30-minute recipes - healthy fish dishes, delicious tarts,
mouth-watering burgers and one-pot chicken suppers Clodagh is the
master of accessible cooking that looks good and makes you feel
good. She is obsessed with simple recipes that encourage you to
cook from scratch most nights of the week. Speed and simplicity are
key. 'As a chef I talk to people about food every day. People talk
to me in person, on Instagram and they even stop me in the street
to chat about food - I absolutely love it! They love to swap
recipes, tell you their food preferences and where to buy the
greatest ingredients, but the number one topic is time, and how
much or how little they have, and how that affects what they cook
and when they cook it. Every other part of our lives is timed very
carefully. How long we sleep, how much time we should spend
exercising, how long it takes us to get to work. But cooking... It
depends how long you've got, or how much time you are willing to
spend. I live fairly remotely and make dinner most nights rather
than eating out or having takeaways, so this book is my answer to
whether I have 10, 20 or 30 minutes to cook supper.' Praise for
Clodagh's Weeknight Kitchen: 'Clodagh McKenna's simple yet
spectacular dishes make every day special. Delicious, effortless,
show-stopping recipes.' Daily Mail 'The most cookable cook book of
the year.' William Sitwell, The Telegraph 'Really easy recipes that
will impress.' The Times Magazine

Relaxed, flexible home cooking from Yotam Ottolenghi and his superteam.
Whether they're conjuring up new recipes or cooking for themselves at home, the Ottolenghi Test Kitchen team do what we all do: they raid their kitchens. But then, they turn whatever they find into approachable creations with an 'Ottolenghi' twist.
This instinct is in perfect sync with recent times, when we've all been standing in front of our kitchen shelves, our cupboards and our fridges, wondering what to cook with what we've got; how to put a can of chickpeas or a bag of frozen peas to good use, instead of taking an extra trip to the shops.
For the first time, the team welcome us into their creative space. These dishes pack all the punch and edge we expect from Ottolenghi, but offer more flexibility to make them our own, using what we've got to hand. There's the ultimate guide to creamy dreamy hummus, a one-pan route to confit tandoori chickpeas and a tomato salad that rules them all.
This book is all about feeding ourselves and our families with less stress and less fuss, but with all the 'wow' of an Ottolenghi meal. It's a notebook to scribble on and add to, to take its ethos and absolutely make it your own.
This is how to cook, the OTK way.
