One-paragraph recipes for fuss-free flavour any day of the week.

Rustle Up is such a clever and different approach to cookery writing. It’s like having a mate in the kitchen guiding you through, in the least fussy way possible. Brilliant. — Georgina Hayden

We've all experienced that moment when you open the fridge and need inspiration to rustle up something a bit different from the usual repertoire, without too much faff and a trip to the supermarket.

Rustle Up is a collection of tried-and-tested micro recipes, kept short and sweet at just one paragraph each. Using simple ingredients, store-cupboard staples, and basic equipment, these dishes promise good food, whether you're cooking solo in a tiny kitchen, making meals with mates, or impressing at a family gathering. Packed with tips and recipe variations, there is inspiration galore and all the answers to rustling up a storm for any occasion.

Chapters include:

Rise and Shine: Best breakfast and brunch dishes.

On the Hop: Lunch should never be overlooked, whether you're using leftovers or cooking from scratch. From nourishing soups to no-cook mezze, these recipes fit the lunchtime bill perfectly.

Around the Table: Shared meals around the kitchen table with family and friends. More laid-back assemblies than dinner parties, the dishes are comforting, life-affirming meals that need no special equipment or expert knowledge.

Always Salad: Our favourite salads, from quick-pickles to a warm coconut salad that's ideal for rebooting the senses.

The Golden Hour: Whether it's the warm summer sunshine or a cosy autumnal evening, here are 3-ingredient cocktails and some moreish snacks to excite and inspire.

Something Sweet: Simple desserts, sweet treats, #onebitepuddings and easy #weekdaybakes, including plenty of gluten-free and nourishing low-sugar options.

Recipes so easy they’ve been memorised, like tiny culinary poems, by their passers-on. Recipes, in other words, you’ll want to eat on repeat.
