Nadia seems to be everywhere at the moment, from winning Bake Off to travelling the world.
This book is the perfect accompaniment to that, helping you become your very own Nadia in the kitchen.
I like Nadiya and have enjoyed watching her series on the TV. She is fast becoming one of the best cooks in Britain. I really enjoyed this book and have already tried some of the recipe's out. Strongly recommend buying this.
I unfortunately only got access to a 17-page sampler with quite a few photos so it would be dishonest to say I am reviewing the whole book. What I can say is that the photos are beautiful, the recipes are very well explained and they look interesting as traditional recipes are revisited with an interesting twist.
Definitely kindled my interest...

I enjoyed the recipes, the photos. A good cooking book.
Recommended.
Many thanks to Penguin UK - Michael Joseph and Netgalley
Beautifully photographed cookbook by one of the best-loved cooks in the UK. The Introduction was as lovely as Nadiya is, and I do like her take on the different "British" foods.
I'm not one for cookbooks, but this had the right level of personality and fun to stand out. The recipes were great too!
Beautiful book. Perfect gift for cooks & lovers of Great British Bake Off or fans of Nadiya.
I loved Nadiya on the Bake Off, willing her to win and watching her grow every week. I have watched the programmes she has made, enjoying her ease and warm personality. The book is no different, her lovely personality shines through in the introduction. Reading about her childhood and understanding her take on what makes Britain, Britain was a lovely way to start the book.
It is well presented with excellent photography and style. The recipes I have seen look easy to follow and are inventive takes on the classics. I will be purchasing this book.
Great sample and can't wait to purchase the book to try more of the recipes.
Very interesting introduction about Naiya's background and her love for food. Although I only received a sample copy, the recipes I saw looked wonderful and I cannot wait to try them out. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes. Very interested in reading the full book and all her other recipes.
Five stars, can't wait to get cooking.
My thanks to the publisher for a sampler of this book via Netgalley.
I was interested to learn about Nadyia's early years in her well written introduction. It's fascinating to see a very different perspective on what constitutes British cuisine and Nadiya's cultural influences certainly add a new dimension to some tradional dishes. The photographs are outstanding and really bring the recipes to vibrant life. I've often made cheese scones, but never thought to complement them with something as simple as chive butter. The recipes are well set out and there's nothing complicated, so it would be good for a novice cook. It's set out to cover different meals; breakfast/brunch, suppers, entertaining, main meals etc.
This is a book to savour and although the electronic version is beautiful and works well on a tablet, I believe a hard copy is the best way to enjoy it. A great addition for anyone interested in good home cooking.
I received a sample of this book and what I've seen looked fantastic! Great recipes, lovely layout!
Thanks for the sampler, the book seems pretty good and the recipes clear, I would definitely buy it in full
I received a sampler of this book and my mouth watered just reading it, I went out and bought the book and was in no way disappointed with it.
I had acces to the first 17 pages. Nadiya famous scones recipe is included
A beautifully laid out cookery book. I prefer my recipes to come with a photograph of what the food is supposed to look like, and the pictures in this book do not disappoint. The recipes are clearly laid out and easy to follow. I cannot wait to test some of them out. I have never bought one of Nadiya's cookery books before, but having seen this one, I am tempted to investigate the others further.
Just as you would expect, this is a heartwarming cook book aimed at everybody. Nicely laid out with easy to follow instructions. Recommended for all budding cooks and seasoned chefs alike.
The sample has really given me the taste of wanting to buy this whole book and try all the recipes.
After reviewing the sample we bought the book, did not see the TV series but the recipies are so amazing. Would have liked more detail on the methods for meranges etc but love the style and layout as well as the recipies.
