## Description

In Stuffed Vine Leaves Saved My Life, Nadia Sawalha offers an authentic taste of the family kitchen. Growing up in an Anglo-Arab home, she learned, from an early age, the importance of feeding your family fabulous food. The mantra was always 'Good food, cooked with love, feeds the soul as well as the body.' Every recipe in this book has already been enjoyed at the Sawalha kitchen table, having either been passed down through the generations or created by Nadia for her family and friends - from the Great Mussakhan, a delicious dish of roasted chicken, onion and spices, to her own must-try recipe for fabulous falafels. But there is always one key ingredient - every dish must have a story. These stories, woven around the recipes, are peppered with the voices of a long and eccentric cast of family members. Just by opening the pages and dipping in, you'll feel as if you've been invited to one of the noisiest, funniest and tastiest family meals around.

Review: You can tell Nadia really loves food! Me too... - This is the only full-price cookbook I have ever bought. I'm fairly new to cooking and on a low budget so I can't afford to spend money on cookery books when the Internet is accessible to me. But this book, which I picked up in a bookshop one day, was so impressive that I splashed out and bought it, cheaper, from desertcart I LOVE food. I have always really enjoyed eating and anyone who has ever cooked for me has commented on how much I appreciate their food. Nadia Sawalha also loves food. She really genuinely loves cooking, eating and feeding others delicious food. Two recipes which convinced me to buy the book are Egg and Twigs and Sage and sausage stuffing which Nadia says she eats "sometimes, only sometimes with creamy mashed potato and red wine sauce". As soon as I read that, I made it my next mission in life to get the ingredients necessary to make that delicious sounding dish which I knew would be a real pleasure to eat! It may or may not be a Michelin star quality recipe or a TV chef style recipe, but it is a delicious, easy, enticing FOOD LOVER'S recipe and that's the kind of food I want to eat and cook for the people I love. The only chef I ever saw who has a real passion for food and eating is Jamie Oliver. Nadia Sawalha's love of all things culinary is staggering in comparison to his. Nadia Sawalha knows well the science of cooking, and she is technically brilliant enough to have won Masterchef, but first and foremost, she is a pure lover of food. As a consequence, she cooks absolutely scrumptious food that I cannot wait to cook and eat too.
Review: Cookery - This is a charming book. One feels the author is chatting to one personally. The food works and is delicious. However, though the family anecdotes are nice, felt I was bombarded with far too many snaps e.g. kids making faces, Auntie this and that! I like Nadia Sawalha - a great favourite of my family re. her TV appearances. I am sure dining with her is a wonderful experience, her warmth and hospitality comes shining through in all her ventures. Is it not time we forsook mind-bogglingly awful celebrity cooks making capital through TV and persuaded Nadia to make a Series? 'The Scrumptious Miss Sawalha'perhaps?
