Bought this book last week and already getting it dirty with olive oil, flour...
Being a Michelin starred chef one might think Angela would have a book of highly complicated recipes and gloss, but it isn't.
All bases are covered from soups and starters to puddings and snacks. The recipes are clear and never more than a page, very similar to River Cafe Easy. The difference here though is that Angela is in touch with Italy not just through cooking but through family. She has a great easy going tone and together with her heritage makes it all much more interesting, informative and personal.
Little stories and notes place the food in context, adding to the great recipes.
I'm clearly a fan but I'm really enjoying it and I think if you like Italian food and want it more accessible than Locatelli's huge Made in Italy or more personality than the River Cafe books then this is the one to spill your olive oil over.
