Michelin-starred chef Tom Kerridge's all-time favourite recipes, cleverly crafted for the home cook with a trademark Kerridge twist.

‘Hearty and enormous fun’ Independent on Sunday

‘Every day I try to make each dish as good as it can be: my personal best ever. I like getting the balance of taste and texture just right, using familiar ingredients and creating big, intense flavours. I'm showing you all of the tweaks, tricks and techniques I've learned over the past twenty years or so, to transform the everyday into the spectacular.’

As the most down-to-earth Michelin-starred chef on the food scene, Tom Kerridge has become known for his big flavours and beautifully crafted yet accessible food. And with more than 100 of his favourite recipes, Best Ever Dishes brings this spectacular cooking to the home kitchen.

Tom starts with classics we all love such as tomato soup, chicken Kiev and rice pudding (plus a few new ideas of his own), then refines and elevates them to the best version that he has ever tasted. Give the Kerridge twist to a simple lasagne, and you'll discover that every mouthful is a taste explosion. Put a special spin on a chocolate tart, and you'll transform it into an exceptional, melt-in-the-mouth pud of the gods. There’s even a section on the basics including how to make the perfect gravy. With plenty of variety and everything from cheesy baked potato skins to hake with verjus butter, this book really will change the way you cook.

‘Comforting, delicious looking dishes that you can't wait to tuck into’ Paul Ainsworth

‘Full of new ideas, but the dishes are achievable for the home cook – and with Tom's upbeat encouragement, you can't fail’ Sainsbury's Magazine

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 town of Marlow. He opened The Hand & Flowers with his wife Beth in 2005, and it went on to become the first pub in the world to acquire two Michelin stars. As well as hosting his own BBC television series, Tom has recently been at the helm of Spring Kitchen, and appears regularly on major broadcasts such as Saturday Kitchen, Great British Menu and MasterChef.
