My latest cookbook, East by West ,champions the ancient Ayurvedic philosophy of eating to nourish, sustain and repair. The vegan sushi chapter is very welcome and clearly explained so you’ll be making delicious rolls in no time. The cookbook that started our love of cookbooks. We bought this after living in Korea and missing all the wonderful foods that had been readily available there but painfully expensive or hard to find in the UK.

This pilaff tells you everything you need to know about Olney. People favour risottos now, but before there was risotto, there was pilaff: buttery rice mixed with onions, garlic and tomatoes that have first been fried in olive oil. If the tomatoes are good and fresh, the oil sufficiently grassy, and the onions just so, this is the food of the gods. Olney was a hugely accomplished and knowledgeable cook, but his mantra was simplicity and, in this sense, he was ahead of the times. When The French Menu was first published in 1970, its determinedly seasonal approach was considered revolutionary. Four years later, he published Simple French Food, and his reputation was sealed. We love both of these books equally, depending on how we’re feeling! One recipe that we can’t wait to try is the chilled pistachio and cucumber soup — perfect for a warm summer’s day! Simple tips like ‘slicing meat against the grain’ and using ‘light vs dark’ soy sauce can make all the difference despite seeming like small factors. As I finish writing this book, Arya is a toddler and starting to piece her first words together. I’ve felt so much guilt along the way and I am sure this tension between work, life, and motherhood will always be present. But if there’s one lesson that I wanted to teach my daughter from the moment I met her, it is this: she should dream. Sometimes what she dares to dream won’t be easy to achieve, but it’ll be worth it in the end.Bear in mind that I’m not covering all of the wonderful and diverse cuisines in Asia, this is a list of my personal favourites which I’ve learned a lot from recently or over the years. There are some great recipes in there with twists that we wouldn’t have even considered, and some of our favourites are on the sweeter side. We really love the look of Malouf’s orange baklava cigars — what’s not to love about that wonderful name alone? Zaitoun: Recipes and Stories from the Palestinian Kitchen by Yasmin Khan

It’s just over two years since I got the call asking me to write a vegan recipe column for this magazine. It was a dream come true, but there were a few small problems.

This amazing cookbook takes the reader through Chennai, Kolkata, Mumbai, and Delhi giving an introduction to each city, photos, and around twenty street food recipes special to the area. Set the same saucepan over a low heat and put a couple of tablespoons of water into the pan. When hot, add the mangetout. Stir-fry for 2 minutes, then add the watercress. Stir-fry for a minute until it wilts, then take the pan off the heat. It also takes through Japan’s eight major regions and their differences in cooking style as well as the basis for all Japanese cooking, those skills you should master and meal planning. Drain the rice, add it to the pan and stir to combine. Add the coconut milk, 200ml of water and the salt. Stir again and bring the mixture to the boil, then put the lid on, turn the heat down to a whisper and cook for a further 15 minutes. Don’t be tempted to lift the lid, as the steam is key to cooking the rice. After 15 minutes, take off the heat and keep the lid on for a further 10 minutes to let the rice rest before eating. Serve with a fresh green salad. What if we told you that you can eat anything you like and lose weight?Well, you probably not believe us, would you? And if you did believe us, you would ask HOW?What I thought: Cheesy carbs are always a winner in my book, so as soon as spotted that these kofta offered both paneer and potato, I was sold. I’d never made kofta before, but I was surprised at how straightforward the whole dish was to pull together – I was able to make the kofta while the sauce simmered, and the whole thing probably only took around 40 minutes (and I’m a slow chopper!) I did lose one kofta to a crumbly death in the frying pan, but I soon learned that if you squeeze them together quite tightly when rolling them into balls, they behave much better. Master Chinese cookery at home with sisters Amy and Julie, they also have a blog and Youtube channel so this brings all of that together in a handy guide of delicious recipes.
