Visits with a Professional Mother and ChefTo set eyes into Nadiya's Family Favorites is to step into the home of a loving mother who happens to have a razor sharp mind for the art taste and smells of food love。 I'm still not sure if I'm in love with her food, her family, her gorgeous self or all the above。 Somewhere in the back of my mind I find myself really believing if I can u defendant and duplicate Nadiya's efforts I'll have children as wondrous and a face as beautiful as her own because th Visits with a Professional Mother and ChefTo set eyes into Nadiya's Family Favorites is to step into the home of a loving mother who happens to have a razor sharp mind for the art taste and smells of food love。 I'm still not sure if I'm in love with her food, her family, her gorgeous self or all the above。 Somewhere in the back of my mind I find myself really believing if I can u defendant and duplicate Nadiya's efforts I'll have children as wondrous and a face as beautiful as her own because the food is telling me so。 Who knew eggplant could sing and carrots favorite with tomatoes? Nadiya did。 Nadiya does。 She knows a lot of other wonderful music food can make and happily shares it with you。 This isn't t a cookbook, it a series of life lessons brought from Great Britain and more exotic locations to show you how complex food can be while cooked simply。 There is no smoke, no mirrors, but pure magic that dazzles nonetheless。 Her use of prunes a!one signals a symphony of flavor my family didn't recognize, and they GROW prunes。I look forward to the more to come implicit in Nadiya's smile and to see how soccer goes for her boys and if her daughter ever develops a sweet tooth, as Nadiya's family is every bit as engaging as her food and explains the real reasons her food is magical。 She is most of all thoughtful about her parental responsibilities, carefully planning each dish and drink。 She allows us to become involved in a life which sees food as love and nourishment for her children's bodies and frankly, it caught my soul。 Thank you, Nadiya。 。。。more

Approachable - fun, creative ideas - highly recommended!

Dorothea

So interesting to read the recipes, but I really love watching Nadiya in action。 She is just wonderful on #GBBO and in her Netflix shows!

Julie

Full of Nadiya chatter, good photos and creative celebrations of good food

Laura

I enjoyed looking through this cookbook, but nothing jumped out at me to make。 I found a lot of the dishes to not be things my family would be interested in eating。 I still enjoy Nadiya Hussain and will definitely look through her other books and watch her show。

Perfectly good cookery book。 As with all cook books there are recipes that aren't for everyone but that's to be expected。 The instructions are clear and the book is nicely illustrated。 Perfectly good cookery book。 As with all cook books there are recipes that aren't for everyone but that's to be expected。 The instructions are clear and the book is nicely illustrated。 。。。more

Yum!!Great food, most ingredients are able to find pretty easily。 Unique flavor profiles, beautiful pictures, easy to follow recipes, a great book overall!!

Elsa Evans

There are so many recipes that can be done easily。 Have tried a couple and they did look like the pictures。 Too many sweet dishes for me, otherwise would have got a 5 out of 5。

Rae

Recipes!I will admit that I haven’t tried any of the recipes, but I have bookmarked so many of them and I can’t wait to try them!

Lacey

This one's a keeper! I've made several of the recipes in this book and they've all been delicious。 She uses flavors I had never thought to put together while using ingredients you probably have at home or are easily found at the supermarket。 There are a lot of vegetarian options that the meat eaters in my house loved and are easily put together for a weeknight meal。 This one's a keeper!

I can't wait for the TV series and the fully published book to come out as the sample looks great。 Nadia's frindly and personable way of speaking and writing makes you feel that a friend has come into your home or written to you personally as you engage with this book。 The recipes are not only interesting and useful but come with wonderful tips and comments which make this so much more than just another recipe book。 I shall be buying copies for many friends and family。 I can't wait for the TV series and the fully published book to come out as the sample looks great。 Nadia's frindly and personable way of speaking and writing makes you feel that a friend has come into your home or written to you personally as you engage with this book。 The recipes are not only interesting and useful but come with wonderful tips and comments which make this so much more than just another recipe book。 I shall be buying copies for many friends and family。 。。。more

Nadiya's Family Favorites by Nadiya Hussain is a free Penguin Random House UK (Michael Joseph) hardcover copy of a book that I read in early January。Nadiya offers chapters on breakfast, lunch, snacks, dinner, desserts, and cakes while using a gentle, guiding narrative voice unheard of in a cookbook - ideal for those scared off by technically-written cookery manuals and culinary textbooks。 There's a picture for nearly every recipe, gives many of her own personal preferences, and the only thing re Nadiya's Family Favorites by Nadiya Hussain is a free Penguin Random House UK (Michael Joseph) hardcover copy of a book that I read in early January。Nadiya offers chapters on breakfast, lunch, snacks, dinner, desserts, and cakes while using a gentle, guiding narrative voice unheard of in a cookbook - ideal for those scared off by technically-written cookery manuals and culinary textbooks。 There's a picture for nearly every recipe, gives many of her own personal preferences, and the only thing really discerning it as a cookbook over a conversation is the measurements。 It's also very homemade and doesn’t shy away from unusual flavor combinations (sweet pasta, omelette & veggie fries, hazelnut mashed potatoes, chicken with grapefruit), yet grins with genius at others (mocha cinnamon rolls, samosa pie, chicken non-prawn toast, brussel sprout slaw, eclair roll, peanut honeycomb banana cake)。 。。。more

Another great cook book from Nadiya! Love the images, style and layout of the book。 The recipes look fantastic, I will be putting this book on my Christmas list!

I liked the look of a few of these recipes (courgette tempura/ sprout coleslaw/ pear crumbles with marzipan mmmmmmmm) but it just isn't my idea of a 'family' cooking。 They seemed like recipes for a family where cooking is enjoyed as a leisure activity, someone's passion that they would prioritise and happily devote time to。 I was rather hoping for new ideas to feed my family quickly, simply and healthily every day。 For me, the recipes were time consuming and complicated for everyday, with lots o I liked the look of a few of these recipes (courgette tempura/ sprout coleslaw/ pear crumbles with marzipan mmmmmmmm) but it just isn't my idea of a 'family' cooking。 They seemed like recipes for a family where cooking is enjoyed as a leisure activity, someone's passion that they would prioritise and happily devote time to。 I was rather hoping for new ideas to feed my family quickly, simply and healthily every day。 For me, the recipes were time consuming and complicated for everyday, with lots of different ingredients requiring forward planning and special purchases。 。。。more

When this summer Penguin Random House contacted me to ask if I was interested in reviewing Nadiya’s new book, Nadiya’s Family Favourites, I was ecstatic! I couldn’t believe I got to hold the actual book in only a few days’ time, but the book came and ever since I was anxiously waiting for the right time to be able to read it and try some of the recipes。 The time has finally come, and I got to make not only one but FIVE of the dishes! But before I show you all the food I’ve made, let me tell you a bit more about the book。 Just like that other book, Nadiya’s British Food Adventure, this one, too, is full of lovely pictures and delicious foods。 It starts off with Nadiya’s ode to food。 “For me, food is all about the people we love, and the family memories we make with them, the things we eat as vivid in our minds as the moments and milestones that inspire them。” She then illustrates this by showing snippets of food-related memories of her family, her husband and three children。 I can imagine their everyday life, filled with love and laughter – and probably the gorgeous smell of a decadent meal as well。 Even though food means different things to all of them and they like different things, it’s something that ties them together。 “Food, home, family: for me, all three go hand in hand。” The book is structured in a way that makes finding a recipe for “every kind of day”, as the title says, super easy。 There are 6 sections, all separated by full-page pictures of a very gorgeous looking Nadiya, making cooking and baking seem incredibly fun and easy。 She also introduces each chapter with a few words。 The chapters, in this very order, are the following: breakfast, lunch, sides and shares, dinner, something sweet, and cake。 Yes, cakes have their own chapter, like they should have! I thought that reviewing this amazing book would be only complete if I tried some of the recipes because who would want to hear me rambling about food without actual photos of the dishes tried?! So I chose several recipes, trying to cover as much of the chapters as I could, which left me with 5 dishes! One of the things that had attracted me to Nadiya’s cookbooks in the first place is that our culinary backgrounds are very different。 She is from a British Bangladeshi family while I am Hungarian through and through。 Our people use very different spices, seasonal greens result in distinct dishes。 Through her recipes I get a look into a part of the world that otherwise I wouldn’t be able to experience from the comfort of my home。 This, of course, means that there were some recipes that I had to discard because I just couldn’t find the ingredients。 But that still left me with plenty to choose from, so choose I did! First, I tried the rice-flour gnocchi with sesame pesto。 An easy yet filling lunch, I must say! At first, I was worried that it wouldn’t be enough for my parents and myself – because they were happy to take part in this experiment and try these dishes。 Safe to say, I couldn’t eat a whole plateful of gnocchi, so my fearswere unfounded。 For breakfast, I tried two different recipes, although one was supposed to qualify as lunch, but what can I say, I like to eat a fair amount。 So I made radish ceviche with avocado and toasted sourdough。 This was such a divine and lush breakfast! Crunchy and soft, sweet and salty。 Definitely a family favourite for us, as well! The other thing I made for breakfast, with a nice toast and some homegrown tomatoes, was the cauliflower hummus。 These easy breakfast recipes will undoubtedly come handy in the future。 As Sunday lunch – which is the big family meal in Hungary – we tried the chicken and rice bake。 Very simple, but delicious and filling。 We have something similar in our cuisine as well, rice and peas, which made this dish familiar。 The kick of cardamom was a welcome novelty, though。 I couldn’t have rightfully reviewed this lovely cookbook without trying one of the cakes。 As it’s summer, there was no way we could have chosen anything but the raspberry ice cream cake。 It was refreshingly cold, super soft and creamy。 Perfect on hot summer days。 And nights。 The 3 of us ate the whole cake in 2 days。 That says it all! I have to admit, a month ago or so, when I first received the book, I couldn’t keep my excitement at bay and had to try a very simple recipe。 As a bonus, let me show you how epically I failed at presentation。 If you think this is bad, let me tell you that the recipe is called ham and cheese crown。 Mine turned out to be a gigantic log at best, but super far from a crown whatever you want to call it。 I blame it on my cockiness, wanting to bake at 10pm… Because it definitely wasn’t the store-bought puff pastry, or the ketchup filling, or the cheese, or the ham。 Meaning I had only one job, to assemble all this into a fancy looking crown… and I failed horribly! Joking aside, this is the thing I love most about Nadiya’s recipes: they are easy and quick and don’t require you to slave away for hours。 They have simple and often pre-prepared ingredients when it comes to pastries and some sauces, which saves you a lot of time – and lets you spend it with those you love instead。 Perfect for those who are learning how to cook, those who want to ring new flavours into their lives, and most definitely those who want a cookbook made with a big heart and lots of love! I would like to thank Penguin Random House for sending me the book in return of an honest review。 。。。more

I've liked Nadiya ever since I first saw her on the Great British Bake Off。 She's got such a lovely, cheerful personality, and her cooking skills are great。 I've looked at her other cooking book and liked it, so I was excited to see she had a new one out。 I like Nadiya's recipes as they are a bit original yet familiar enough that you want to try them out as you know it'll be nice。 I love that she's mixed Bengali cuisine with British cuisine and created something tasty and original。I've tried the I've liked Nadiya ever since I first saw her on the Great British Bake Off。 She's got such a lovely, cheerful personality, and her cooking skills are great。 I've looked at her other cooking book and liked it, so I was excited to see she had a new one out。 I like Nadiya's recipes as they are a bit original yet familiar enough that you want to try them out as you know it'll be nice。 I love that she's mixed Bengali cuisine with British cuisine and created something tasty and original。I've tried the grapefruit chicken stew and we loved it。 Actually, my husband said "it smells nice!" when he came home as I was cooking dinner, and he rarely comments on my cooking (he does most of it, I'm not the best at it!)。 The almond and orange madeira cake was so tasty, too。 I can't wait to try more recipes。Disclaimer - I received a free physical copy of this book from Michael Joseph in exchange for an honest review。 Thank you! 。。。more

This is a great book for families。 A little bit high on calories and not so much healthy meals for my liking。 But i understand why families would love it。 Although some of the recipes take ages to cook which I’m not so sure would happen with a big family。

This book has made me hungry。 It’s full of exciting and different recipies that I can’t wait to start making and all from a girl who loves potatoes so is a girl from my heart before I even start at page one。 This book feels like you are cooking with an old friend and Nadiyas warmth and humour that we loved in bake off radiates off each page。

The book is bright, brilliantly laid out and the recipes are easy to follow, illustrations are colourful and the recipes will be easy to follow。

I liked the look of some of these recipes and will probably give a few a try。 The photography is beautiful and enticing but it’s hard to get a sense of the balance of the collection from a sampler so I’m going to have a flick through in a shop before I decide if I buy myself a copy。
