Description
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
Lamb doner. Chicken tikka masala. Turkey burger. Doughnuts. If you think this doesn't sound like diet food, then think again. Tom Kerridge shows how you can enjoy all your favourite foods and still lose weight with his lower-calorie diet with a difference.
‘Tom proves that low-cal dishes can be delicious’ BBC Good Food
‘The recipes look enticing whether you’re on a diet or not’ Metro
‘You can have your cake, it seems, you can even eat it, you just have to cook it Tom’s way’ Daily Express
"It's impossible to stick to a diet if the food you're expected to eat is boring and doesn't fill you up. So I've developed lots of tasty and satisfying recipes that people will love to cook and eat, but that will also help them lose weight. I truly believe that this attitude works. I've been there myself and now I want to help others get there too.”
Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge has been developing top recipes for nearly three decades and knows how to make things taste good. He also understands how much willpower it takes to shift unhealthy excess weight, because he has lost over 11 stone in the last four years by following a low-carb diet. Now Tom is turning his attention to helping food-lovers who have chosen a lower-calorie diet as their own route to weight-loss.
Recipes include . . .
- Southern-style chicken
- One-layer lasagne
- Chicken tikka masala
- Lamb doner kebab
- Beef stroganoff
- Sweet potato and black bean burritos
- Sticky pork chops
- Baked doughnuts with sweet five-spice dust
This is a lower-calorie diet with a difference – it’s based on hunger-satisfying portions of delicious, lower-calorie dishes that taste amazing. The focus is on the food that we can and should be eating to lose weight, which is easy to make and won’t make you feel as though you are missing out.
By adopting a new, healthy approach to eating you really CAN lose weight for good.
‘Tom’s recipes are refreshingly un-cheffy yet stylish and, even though they’re low-cal, they pack in plenty of flavour too’ Delicious
‘For people who want to lose weight without sacrificing flavour and good taste … Tom Kerridge is like a human sunbeam’ GQ

About the Author
Tom Kerridge worked as a chef in restaurants across Britain before deciding to set out on his own and take over a rundown pub in the quiet Buckinghamshire town of Marlow. He opened The Hand & Flowers with his wife Beth in 2005, and it went on to become the first (and only) pub in the world to acquire two Michelin stars. In 2014 he opened a second pub in Marlow, The Coach. As well as hosting two of his own BBC television series, Tom has been at the helm of the BBC’s Food & Drink and Bake Off: Crème de la Crème. His previous books include Proper Pub Food, Tom Kerridge’s Best Ever Dishes, Tom’s Table and the bestselling Tom Kerridge’s Dopamine Diet.
