I am a huge fan of Nigella Lawson and love her cookbooks. Some more than others and I was anxious to get a copy of her latest cookbook. Thanks to an advanced readers copy I was able to peruse her recipes and memoir style writing in Cook, Eat, Repeat.
Nigella writes about starting this book in one
She speaks aboout self-isolation and wonders when we may dine with friends again, learning from the lockdown and daily ways to find pleasure. She speaks about lasagna and says don't limit it to "occasions' and we ceratinly do not do that in our home. Doug and I have it whenever we want, but mostly when the weather deems we need a hearty rib sticking meal.
There are many good recipes in this book and I of course gravitated to the chicken with orzo and lemon. My favorite flavors and ingredients...
For vegetarinan fare there are loads of recipes such as spiced bulger wheat with roasted veggies, Vegan polenta cake, Tuscan bean soup and more.

Much thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. I was not compensated for my review and opinions are mine.

This is more a series of essays about food with recipes than a normal cookbook.
We enjoyed the black pudding meatballs. They were milder in flavour than we expected, perhaps the difference between the British and Austrian versions of the sausage.
It's been a long time since I had the energy to make
