Book SynopsisSHORTLISTED FOR THE 2023 ANDRE SIMON BEST COOKBOOK AWARD _______________ 'Ella Risbridger has
a comforting talent for delivering deliciousness in a way that seems like an act of compassion'
- NIGELLA LAWSON ‘An
extraordinary, heartwarming book with gorgeous recipes. I loved it’
- NIGEL SLATER _______________ This cookbook is about a year in the kitchen. A year of grief and hope and change; of fancy fish pie, cardamom-cinnamon chicken rice, chimichurri courgettes, quadruple carb soup, blackberry miso birthday cake, and sticky toffee Guinness brownie pudding. A year of loss, and every kind of romance, and fried jam sandwiches. A year of seedlings and pancakes. A year of falling in love. A year of recipes. A year, in other words, of minor miracles.
The Year of Miracles by bestselling author Ella Risbridger is more than just a cookbook; like her award-winning Midnight Chicken, every page is a transporting blend of recipes and life story. This is about what happens when you've lived through the worst thing you could have imagined – and how you can still cook, and eat, and love. _______________ 'Love, sorrow, grief and
how cooking can get you through. Ella Risbridger has such a sincere and distinctive voice. A book full of wisdom.'
