An ordinary, unfussy meal can still contain wonders … More often than not, the simplest way is also the best way, at least when it comes to food. It's the reason I wanted to write this cookbook.
This describes the food you want to eat, shared by chef and creator Thomas Straker to his 5M following, and now in his first cookbook. Uncomplicated, seasonal and delicious, each recipe has been perfected by Thomas so that you can enjoy the flavours without spending hours labouring away.
The book includes favourite dishes beloved on his socials such as flavoured butters and flatbreads, as well as elegantly achievable plates, for example:
Roast chicken with butter beans and salsa verde
Cod with tomatoes and peppers
Pan fried romanesco with tahini sauce
Set custard with rhubarb
Thomas is a new generation chef who cooks with the same stylish simplicity whether at home, online or in the kitchen of his acclaimed London restaurant, STRAKER’S. Breaking down the barriers between cheffy food and home-cooking, he shows how quality ingredients and simple techniques can lead to amazing results in your kitchen.
