Industry Reviews
Fabulous book * Good Housekeeping *
Simple food in a way that is undeniably Ottolenghi - in other words beautiful and delicious * Evening Standard *
Simple, proves that taking a less complicated approach to cooking needn't mean losing out on flavour. Try these new recipes for an easier route to mealtime nirvana * Delicious magazine *
[Yotam Ottolenghi's] latest title, Ottolenghi Simple is a thrill. I particularly adored the pasta with pecorino and pistachios, lamb with almonds and orange blossom, and baked rice with tomato confit and garlic. Many of the recipes have fewer than 10 ingredients and can be made in under 30 minutes. While a lot of cookbooks meet these criteria, few have Mr. Ottolenghi's far-ranging flair * Melissa Clark, New York Times *
Fantastic. Scintillating flavours . . . dishes you can cook with ease -- Diana Henry * Sunday Telegraph *
