Plenty
By Yotam Ottolenghi, Jonathan Lovekin
Ebury Press - 2010
I am really enjoying this cookbook, as well as Jerusalem, which I bought at the same time. I love the flavours and combinations, and with it's heavy Middle Eastern inspirations, it fits in well with the foods that are available in my local market street.
Surprisingly for such a modern cookbook, Ottolenghi is very, not to say overly generous, with oil and fat. I have reduced the oil using for sauteing by as much as 3/4 with no ill effect.
