Got the book this evening. I had to return the first one that came in the morning as it was damaged. It doesn’t matter though as I’m liking the book. The illustrations are fantastic. I must admit that it got me more excited to flip the pages upon reaching the South East Asia part but adobo was sadly featured as vegan. Will definitely try the recipes though. Well done! ????

We ordered this book after getting the Veggie version of the Roasting Tin books for someone as a gift, and it looked really good. Looking through this book we marked up the recipes we wanted to try, and it was about half of them, which is great. I am ill, so this book allows my other half to pretty much just put everything in a pan and leave it – their kind of cooking lol! We have a log burner and cast iron pots we use to cook on it, and a good amount of the recipes can be cooked like that.
There is a lovely mix of meats, fish and veggie recipes. So far we have tried four, one was the Vietnamese pulled beef, which was soooo tasty and simple. The sausage, bean and chorizo traybake is now my in my other half’s 5 top favourite meals! One was the pulled pork with oranges recipe, which we were very underwhelmed by as it just tasted like normal slow cooked pork and was nothing special. The last was the tandoori chicken traybake with sweet potatoes, which we surprisingly felt was lacking in flavour. We’ve got lots more to try, and are looking forward to it!
There does seem to be A LOT of salt in some of these recipes. Whereas I’ve only seen recipes before call for a good pinch, or to season to taste, these are actually calling for one to two teaspoons. I’m not sure why, but we aren’t going to put that much in!
Update: Have also now tried the lamb keema meatballs. As the lamb meatballs (a very fatty meat) sat on the rest of the ingredients, as they cooked fat from them covered the rest of it, I had to drain a big layer of fat off as it was swimming in it! It was tasty, but all that fat…! So far this book seems to be a mixed bag.

In our kitchen we have shelves full of Jamies, Delias, Nigellas, and countless other TV cooks’ cookbooks (including a hairy biker or two). But I’ve discovered Rukmini Iyer and put all those behind me, because Rukmini with her superb, easy to follow, cook in minutes wash-up in less, tasty roasting tin meals is my new kitchen goddess.
Now at this point I have to admit that I’ve actually only tried four of the dishes from her “Roasting Tin Around The World” book: one meat, one chicken, one fish and one veggie, but all of these shared a common denominator: they were easy to assemble [note: assemble not prepare], they cooked quickly, they tasted great and there wasn’t enough washing-up to start the house-elves [or the kids as we call them] complaining. But, while I’ve only tried four dishes so far this isn’t one of those cook books [note “cook books” not “cookery books”!] where of the seventy or so recipes half fail the too-much-like-hard-work/too-complicated test, a quarter require ingredients never seen in the local supermarket, some require overnight marinating which you only find out when you get to the third step thereby failing the we’re-hungry-now test, and all need an army of sous-chefs to bring it together at the last moment [how many hands do these guys think we have?] and a battalion of washer-uppers just to keep the kitchen surfaces clear of collateral debris and a supply of clean pots and pans flowing. Which leaves a couple that you might consider cooking when you next have time, meanwhile it’s going to be scrambled eggs again for four.
No, Iyer knows a thing or two about modern life, about the difficulties of feeding teenagers, and about keeping meals interesting; and this book is stuffed full of easy recipes that will work for weekdays for the family, romantic weekend nights a deux, and dinner parties once lockdown eases; with ingredients that you can find, that cook quickly, and require minimal washing-up; and if the beautiful pictures of the dishes [note: you won’t find cover to cover pictures of the personality chef and “their” kitchen to die for here, it’s the food that counts here] are anything to go by then this book is going to keep us going for a while yet [before we move onto her next one].
And that’s why Rukmini Iyer’s my new kitchen goddess and this book is five stars.

Great recipes it was a great gift

I bought this to find some helpful but easy recipes for when living alone.
The recipes are easy to follow with clear instructions on what the ingredients are required the quantity. They have very clear cooking times on the book and as most are just put it in the oven minimal cooking skill is required. Lots of different cuisines and styles some days you could be cooking Moroccan food another you could be cooking a chicken tray bake. I’ve made a couple of the recipes and now and they taste incredible. Most of the ingredients are readily available in any supermarket in the UK.
