Suppers for two: Enjoy intimate meals with dishes like harissa lamb steak served alongside chickpea mash, and aubergine braised with soy and ginger for a touch of warmth. Suppers with friends: Gather around the table with friends to share hearty offerings like pilaf with buttermilk chicken, perfect for socialising over a meal. Thematic Elements The recipes embody simplicity and flavour, emphasising fresh ingredients and straightforward techniques. Stein's approachable style encourages even novice cooks to try their hand at creating memorable meals. "Cooking should be fun, and this book embodies that spirit with every recipe." - Rick Stein For those who have enjoyed Stein's previous works, such as Rick Stein's Fish and Seafood, or similar cookbooks focusing on simple yet impressive meals, Rick Stein's Simple Suppers is an essential addition to any culinary collection.
