same same but different


How exciting, a new long awaited cookbook from popular TV cook Poh Ling Yeow.

This is the follow-up to her bestselling 'Poh’s Kitchen - My Cooking Adventures', which stayed in the top 10 Australian bestsellers list for six weeks.
The 100 brand new recipes in the most appealing book are organised in pairs that share a common process, ingredient or texture - so a ‘bite sized spice’ could be Kunyit (turmeric) Fried Chicken or a Curry Puff, and a ‘yummy curry’ could be Prawn and Pineapple Curry or a Beef Rendang.

Full of mouth-watering recipes ( I exaggerate not) and as stylish as its author ( and that is saying something!), SAME SAME BUT DIFFERENT will inspire you to go in new culinary directions with familiar ingredients.

About the author:
Poh Ling Yeow was born in Malaysia in 1973, spending the first nine years of her life in Kuala Lumpur. Her family then migrated to South Australia where she now lives and works. 
After completing a Bachelor of Design at the University of South Australia, Yeow freelanced as a graphic designer and illustrator. She has been painting full-time since the beginning of 2002. 
Poh Ling Yeow's food career began in the first season of MasterChef Australia, 2009, after coming runner up in the finale, she was offered her own cooking show Poh's Kitchen, on ABC1. She followed this up with Poh's Kitchen on the Road and Poh's Kitchen Lends a Hand.
She continues to paint and also runs a food cart at her local farmers' market.

The Bookman is an enormous fan and I am so thrilled to have this marvellous book ! Once I have tried a few recipes I will post further.
