MY PETITE KITCHEN COOKBOOK

Simple Wholefood Recipes

Eleanor Ozich - Hardback -Murdoch Books - $45.00

Wholefood guru, cook, writer and columnist ELEANOR OZICH believes that food doesn’t have to complicated, difficult or expensive. It’s all about cooking with simple and seasonal ingredients, to lovingly create something both wonderfully delicious and nourishing.

Her first book, My Petite Kitchen Cookbook, reflects the very essence of her food and style. It has more than 100 gluten-free, wholefood recipes that will nurture your body and soul, and inspire you as we move into autumn. From Sweet Potato, Carrot & Cashew Soup, Apple and Sage Pork Cassoulet and Slow-Cooked Zucchini with Basil and Lemon, to Decadent Raspberry and Coconut Chocolate Torte, and Lemon and Coconut Truffles, Eleanor has everything covered for breakfasts, lunches, drinks, dinners, desserts and everything in between. And she doesn’t forget vegetarian and vegan options.

The recipes are complemented by Eleanor’s own photography, beautifully capturing her food – fresh, vibrant, and for sharing. Eleanor’s intense love for wholesome food truly shines in the dishes that she creates, and her followers around the world agree!

This is a real stunner of a cookbook about which I will have more to say shortly and I am not at all surprised to learn that the first printing is sold out and an urgent reprint is underway.
