Food, Health and Happiness by
Oprah Winfrey
Macmillan, RRP $49.99
Oprah Winfrey has spent her life
trying to make peace with food, which has been such a source of pleasure and
meaning for her. Now Oprah has found ways to have her favourite meals while
also controlling her weight, and in Food, Health and Happiness she shares not
only her struggles with food but also the recipes that have allowed food to be
a source of joy for her again.
With help from the chefs who
have cooked for her over the years such as Rosie Daley, Art Smith, Mei Lin,
Taryn Huebner, and Sonny Sweetman, this is an extraordinarily personal cookbook
while also being an invitation to Oprah's many fans to eat both healthfully and
happily. From simple pleasures such as 'Unfried Chicken' or 'Turkey Chili' to
such celebrations of freshness as 'Farro With Peas, Asparagus, Pesto and Cured
Olives' and 'Chilean Sea Bass with Lemon Fennel Chutney,' this is food as it
should be: a source of happiness, a ritual to be shared, a celebration of life.
I am working my way through the book and every recipe so far has been a great success. Last night I made Indian Spiced Apricot Chicken and it was divine !!
