Cook Simple: Effortless cooking every day

Diana Henry shows you how to turn everyday ingredients, such as chicken pieces, tuna steaks, or a leg of lamb, into a truly special dinner with the minimum of effort. Her success lies in the authenticity of her recipes.

Diana dedicates a chapter to each of 12 everyday ingredient groups: chicken, chops, sausages, leg of lamb, fish, leaves, summer veg, winter veg, pasta, summer fruit, winter fruit, and flour and eggs. There are more than 120 recipes, from a wide variety of countries, and each takes only minutes to prepare. Spice rubs, marinades, and flavoured butters feature heavily in the book’s many roasts and bakes, but there are lots of other ideas for quick cooking, too.
