Veg: Easy & Delicious Meals for Everyone as seen on Channel 4's Meat-Free Meals

This has turned out to be my favourite cookbook. Bought this during the pandemic looking for inspiration for new dishes to cook. Easy to follow and always great results (if you stick to Jamie's instructions). Bought it again as a gift for my mom who is also loves it.

For the vegetarian who likes to cook and wants to make mealtime more interesting or even just for those want more of a veg-based diet than they already have, this is the perfect companion. Many recipes have flavors and spices aligned with Indian and middle eastern cooking, so be prepared for that should you prefer mild flavors. Many recipes are easy but there are more than a handful which might be considered “advanced” and not for the faint of heart cook. Something to keep in mind if you are new to cooking or feel you have more to learn. I so far have loved everything I’ve made from this book and look forward to now playing with the recipes to make them my own moving forward!

I loved this book.. I was waiting when I would get my hands on this book.. the receipts are simple and easy.. the ingredients used are easily available in the supermarket..

Super boek voor Jamie fan's. Bekijk ook de serie op tv.

Both myself and better half have been wanting to reduce our meat consumption for a little while now. We're not into meat replacement products either and are lucky enough to have a great farm near us that sells boxes of veggies so needed something that would help us use loads of veggies in ways we had never thought of. Well, Mr Oliver has succeeded by some way in helping us out. We've gone from meat every day (often 2 times a day) to maybe 4 times in the whole week and not once have we felt like we've been missing out. As for the title of this review; like mentioned, we're eating so much less meat that even if we'd paid full price for this book, we'd have recouped the cost within a month on the amount of meat we haven't bought. Regardless of your reasons, this book is well worth the investment if you're serious about eating more veg. The recipes themselves are clear, easy to follow and mercifully are full of things you've heard of and probably have in the house. There's some great nutritional info for each recipe (handy if you need to keep your protein consumption high) and there's also a realistic preparation time. Overall, it's hard to find flaw in the book. Some have mentioned that the index at the back could be better which is true, but other than that, it's a winner.
