Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review“In his debut cookbook, [Stevie] Parle takes the knowledge he has picked up in kitchens all over the world . . . and guides home cooks through recipes such as Keralan’s Pollichattu, a heavily seasoned white fish covered in coconut. Using the right mix of spices, he writes, `the flavor of a dish suddenly takes on tangible authenticity, becoming immediately Moroccan, Kashmiri, or Sri Lankan.’ . . . . A voyage for the palette of any eager cook.”—Kirkus Reviews “Stevie Parle is a fresh and fabulous new talent.” —Nigella Lawson “This book celebrates fresh, honest, seasonal ingredients from around the world. Stevie Parle’s recipes are wonderfully diverse—Catalan, Florentine, Sri Lankan, British, Keralan—all described in Stevie’s uniquely personal voice, and presented with beautiful simplicity.” —Alice Waters, Chez Panisse (Berkeley), author of The Art of Simple Food “If you buy one book this year buy this one. My Kitchen is straight from the heart. Stevie Parle is definitely the chef to watch.” —April Bloomfield, The Spotted Pig “Stevie writes beautifully. Every recipe both excites and educates; a personal and innovative collection that we can’t wait to cook from.” –Sam and Sam Clark, Moro “In this most intimate and personal book, Stevie Parle has managed to convey all the joy and passion he has for cooking. My Kitchen offers wonderful recipes from exotic places Stevie has traveled to, as well as simple classic recipes on how to make an excellent chip or the perfect tomato sauce. It is a remarkable book from a remarkable chef.” Ruth Rogers, The River Café
