Synopsis

Written after a personal “change of appetite”, this collection brings together dishes created in response to a desire for food that feels less heavy, with less meat and more vegetable-, fish- and grain-based cooking. Influences range from the Middle East and Far East to cuisines spanning Georgia and Scandinavia, reflecting an approach that looks outward for fresh ideas and flavours.

Alongside recipes such as a Cambodian salad with prawns, grapefruit, toasted coconut and mint, North African mackerel with cumin, and a blood orange and cardamom sorbet, Henry also weaves in her reflections on subjects including broth and the carbohydrate debate. The emphasis is on expanding the palate with colourful, flavour-led food that is described as nourishing, without austerity; ideal for readers seeking “good for you” recipes with variety and inspiration.
