About this Book

Mighty Spice Express is all about fantastic food in no time. To achieve this, I have developed recipes using techniques, spices, cuts of meat and fish, cooking methods and ingredients that all work towards making delicious express meals and snacks for any occasion.

Spices are at the heart of the recipes in this book. The more I travel the more I learn new ways to use these fabulous ingredients. They are truly versatile and it’s fascinating how the same spices, used in a different way, can take the food on your table from one country to another. For me, spices offer an escape and transport me somewhere else while I eat. They add the flavours, colour, heat and smell of some of the most beautiful and exotic places in the world. With a pinch of cumin, a grating of ginger or a few slices of lemongrass I can whip up something wonderful and transform my little apartment in East London into the best exotic restaurant in the world.
