If you’re in the market for a cookbook with plenty of simple and tasty dishes , ‘Simply’ by Sabrina Ghayour is a worthy contender. Recipes from Simply I asked Kavey if a four-word review would suffice, but ‘ I love this book’ isn’t enough, apparently! Simply" is a cookbook with Persian-style recipes.

Yomari consists of an external cover of rice flour and an inner content of sweets known as chaku and the mild-based khuwa. They sell for about 65 Nepali rupees or 60 US cents per dumpling. The yomari were traditionally prepared as a specialty dish by members of the ethnic Newari community in Nepal for their festival, but demand became so great that they are now sold throughout the year.

With an emphasis on simple ingredients and strong flavours, Ghayour will bring her modern inspirational touch to a variety of dishes ranging from classics and comfort food to spectacular salads and sweet treats.Each recipe has a photo (all the good books do!) – I love the simplicity of plating, with food pictured in the tray it was cooked on, or nestled in baking paper, all of which adds to the authenticity of the book. Most recipes also have a ‘simply delicious with’ section which refers to other recipes in the book that would make a good pairing. There is so much confidence in this book, that it even outlines which salt to use (Maldon sea salt flakes, in case you’re interested). Women sit as they eat bakso at a street in Depok. Bakso consists of meatballs and noodles mixed with tofu, mustard greens, fried onions and chili sauce. It is one of the most popular street foods in Indonesia I did find some of the recipes a bit sweet for my taste, and tended to cut the sugar content by at least half. I also used crushed fresh garlic instead of the stated garlic granules.

Simply (Octopus Books) is the fifth of Ghayour’s books and, as anticipated, has plenty to keep readers busy. I don’t cook red meat any longer so I was concerned that Simply might not be for me as it is quite meat-heavy, yet I found many recipes to put to work.

She is very engaging with a strong online presence and is often very ‘real’ with her audience about her wellbeing.A man sells baozi, or Chinese steamed meat buns, at a business district in Beijing.
