Yotam Ottolenghi - Plenty

With his fabulous restaurants and bestselling Ottolenghi Cookbook, Yotam Ottolenghi has established himself as one of the most exciting new talents in the world of cookery and food writing. Yotam's food inspiration comes from his strong Mediterranean background and his unapologetic love of ingredients. This exclusive collection of vegetarian recipes is drawn fro m his column 'The New Vegetarian' for the Guardian's Weekend magazine, and features both brand-new recipes and dishes first devised for that column.

With sections devoted to cooking greens, aubergines, brassicas, rice and cereals, pa sta and couscous, pulses, roots, squashes, onions, fruit, mushrooms and tomatoes, the breadth of colours, tastes and textures is extraordinary. Not a vegetarian himself, his approach to vegetable dishes is wholly original and innovative, based on strong flavours and stunning, fresh combinations. Featuring vibrant, evocative food photography from acclaimed photographer Jonathan Lovekin, and with Yotam 's voice and personality shining through, Plenty is a must-have for meat-eaters and vegetarians alike.
