Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Smoked paprika chicken casserole with chickpeas, peppers & chorizo

    • wester on March 17, 2023

      A good everyday meal. The instructions seemed overly precise to me, but that could just be me. Next time use ground fennel seeds for more even distribution of the flavor.

  • Asian spiced short ribs

      Halved the recipe. Also cooked it for nearer 3 hours (but that was to suit me). Really very tasty. A good one to whack in the oven and go out. Even when reduced down and a bit of cornflour, the sauce would not thicken so was more of a broth. Bear this in mind - bowls not plates (doh). Delicious though.

Publishers Text

In this melting pot of different cuisines, Paul Merrett offers dishes inspired by his travels abroad, his home cooking and his experience in some of the UK's top restaurants. His personal collection of recipes is united by a bold and inventive use of spice and includes such dishes such as Salt and Pepper Squid with a Papaya, Chilli and Coriander Salsa and Sri Lankan Chicken Kotu. Interspersed with anecdotal and amusing stories of his travels to African spice markets and Asian spice gardens (along with discoveries closer to home), it includes a wealth of tips on storage, buying, grinding, dry-frying, rubs and marinades, as well as fascinating facts on the history of spices. From Zanzibar Fish Curry and 25-minute Veggie Tagine to Coconut and Lemongrass Panna Cotta, the subtle aromas and fiery flavours on offer will inspire you to cook something new.
