Ottolenghi Test Kitchen: Extra Good Things

'Ottolenghi's test kitchen under a railway arch, where he and his team conjure up new recipes, has always felt like my version of Dahl's chocolate factory, and its spirit inhabits Ottolenghi's Instagram account. At a time when everyone and their pug is doing Insta-cookalongs, his is still something special'

It is astonishing that after all these years of producing the most inventive cookbooks around, Yotam Ottolenghi never seems to run out of ideas. His secret is partly that he has such a good team behind him: the Ottolenghi Test Kitchen (OTK) ... This is the second book he has co-authored with Noor Murad, a young Bahraini chef, and it's one of the OTK's best.

The second book from the OTK team, bursting with colour, flavour and so many recipes you'll want to cook - everyone a winner.

Plenty of enticing recipes, which can be taken to the next level with home-made sauces, salsas, chutneys, oils and sprinkles.

More joyful vegetables and clever salads [...] ingenious, as always.

Yotam Ottolenghi (Author)
Yotam Ottolenghi is the restaurateur and chef-patron of the nine Ottolenghi delis, as well as the NOPI and ROVI restaurants. He is the author of eleven bestselling and multi-award-winning cookery books. His championing of vegetables, as well as ingredients once seen as 'exotic', has led to what some call 'The Ottolenghi effect'. This is shorthand for the creation of a meal which is full of colour, flavour, bounty and sunshine. Yotam lives in London with his family. www.ottolenghi.co.uk @Ottolenghi
