Jamie Oliver⿿s most recent cookbook ⿿Cook with Jamie⿿ was probably one of the most popular gifts under the Christmas tree in 2006. In my family alone we had three copies between ten of us.
The reason I love the book so much is because of its simplicity and explanations on basic food knowledge. Before picking up the book I had no idea what part of the cow different pieces of beef came from but the simple diagrams show this in a way that even young children can understand. Similar drawings of lamb, a pig, a chicken and a duck are also included to help you get a better understanding of what you⿿re eating.
My favourite recipe from the book is mini roast potatoes with rosemary, garlic, onions and mushrooms. I try to cook this at least once a week with a nice piece of meat and some veggies, this goes down an absolute treat with the family.
A quote from Jamie Oliver: ⿿I can⿿t tell you how long I⿿ve dreamt about writing this book. It⿿s the biggest book I⿿ve ever done, and I⿿ve really tried to make it a timeless, modern-day classic⿿.
