The Incredible Spice Men Book

Open your everyday cooking up to the potential of spice with 80 flavour-packed recipes from award winning chefs Cyrus Todiwala and Tony Singh. Acclaimed chefs Tony Singh and Cyrus Todiwala are on a mission to wake Britain up to the versatility of spices. For too long, our spices have sat unused and dusty in cupboard shelves, when just a mere sprinking of cumin, a dash of allspice or a handful of star anise has the power to turn our everyday food into an explosion of tastes and smells. Tony and Cyrus have taken to the road, exploring the British Isles and adding their own spicy twist to our most classic and best-loved dishes. Try jazzing up a Sunday roast lamb with a cardomom rub, adding some cumin to give Welsh rarebit a kick, or Cyrus' nutmeg-infused take on toad in the hole. With 80 delicious recipes accompanied by Cyrus and Tony's top tips and favourite spices, The Spice Boys will demystify the contents of your spice rack, and open your everyday cooking up to a world of exciting new flavours.
