Summary

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 low-calorie diet as their own route to weight-loss。

This is a low-calorie diet with a difference - it's based on hunger-satisfying portions of delicious, low-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。 Recipes include warm halloumi salad; salt and pepper squid; sweet potato and black bean burritos; sticky pork chops; and baked doughnuts with sweet five-spice dust。

As Tom says: '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。'

By adopting a new, healthy approach to eating you really CAN lose weight for good。

Great book

June Bell

great adaptations of favourite meals Excellent recipes for tasty healthy meals 。 You won’t feel like you are on a diet 。 Can’t wait to get cooking from this recipe book 。

Lucy

Interesting read, some good recipes, well written but nothing overly spectacular。

Jenn L

Pretty average cookbook, in my opinion; there are a few nice recipes but nothing spectacular。 This book does seem to assume lots of time to cook and space for complex cooking equipment。Overall, not my kind of recipe book。

Tanvi

These look very good。 Doesn’t seem to be much dairy, though。 And what’s all this about portion sizes being huge? Isn’t that a good thing?Not sure how freezable these are。

Amanda

Good recipes but be warned - portions are huge!!!

Louise Tago

Seriously, this book is amazing! The recipes are easy to follow and they taste delicious。 I highly recommend this book。

Kate

Good, flavourful recipes。 Mostly clear instructions。 If you’re deciding between this and Jamie Oliver’s 15 minute meals, this is better。 By the third night of cooking from this book (from the library), we decided to buy a copy for ourselves。

Ruth McGuinness

Inspirational!!! Loved the tv series not just because l could do with losing a few pounds but Tom is my favourite tv chef。 I’ve picked up so many new ideas to give my family a heathy diet。 I’m sure this book will be used regularly for many years to come。 Thank you Tom。

Acquired this earlier in the year to lose some weight and having enjoyed the accompanying tv series。 It's been on my cookery book stand permanently since then in the kitchen and we cook from it most days of the week。 Yes it requires some stocking up of the store cupboard but once done the recipes are a breeze。 (This from a moderately experienced cook who enjoys the process of cooking and has the luxury of working from home so more time then most to devote to it) Acquired this earlier in the year to lose some weight and having enjoyed the accompanying tv series。 It's been on my cookery book stand permanently since then in the kitchen and we cook from it most days of the week。 Yes it requires some stocking up of the store cupboard but once done the recipes are a breeze。 (This from a moderately experienced cook who enjoys the process of cooking and has the luxury of working from home so more time then most to devote to it) 。。。more

Holly Swales

A lovely cook book with some very good recipes。 They can be easily adapted for weight watchers users like me

Peter O'Shea

Some great recipes but they can take a decent chunk of time to prepare。

Kathy Curry

Loved this book。 Readily available ingredients ( only copy had to look up ) but recipes are easy to follow huge portions

This book has loads of nice sounding receipes in, but I think it's written by a chef who has lost touch with 'normal' people who have busy lives, limited time to cook and who shop in Tesco and don't have access to half the ingredients listed。 Oh you'll also need a seemingly endless supply of 'skinless chicken crowns pre-poached in 500ml fresh chicken stock and 500ml water' along with the odd blow torch, not to mention a spiralizer!Needless to say I returned this book and bought a useful one。 This book has loads of nice sounding receipes in, but I think it's written by a chef who has lost touch with 'normal' people who have busy lives, limited time to cook and who shop in Tesco and don't have access to half the ingredients listed。 Oh you'll also need a seemingly endless supply of 'skinless chicken crowns pre-poached in 500ml fresh chicken stock and 500ml water' along with the odd blow torch, not to mention a spiralizer!Needless to say I returned this book and bought a useful one。 。。。more

It might seem a little weird to add a cookery book to "favourites" and "would read again" but this is for sure one of my favorite books to DATE。 I got this on the first of February, and I haven't cooked anything else but stuff from this book。 The recipes are fully delicious, and really spice up cooking。 With a full vegetarian section, and even low calorie, but not restricted desserts, this is a life saviour for sure。 It's hard to find low calorie diet books that cater to vegetarian diets as well It might seem a little weird to add a cookery book to "favourites" and "would read again" but this is for sure one of my favorite books to DATE。 I got this on the first of February, and I haven't cooked anything else but stuff from this book。 The recipes are fully delicious, and really spice up cooking。 With a full vegetarian section, and even low calorie, but not restricted desserts, this is a life saviour for sure。 It's hard to find low calorie diet books that cater to vegetarian diets as well, and then this book came along。 I fully recommend this for everyone, meat eaters, vegetarians, vegans, people trying to lose weight, and those that just want to expand their palette。 Never before have I come across such an amazing book, I highly recommend this。 。。。more

Pretty good, straightforward recipes。 I personally won't be using Elmlea at any point, but I welcome any ideas for higher protein, lower-calorie, higher vegetable-containing meals。 Pretty good, straightforward recipes。 I personally won't be using Elmlea at any point, but I welcome any ideas for higher protein, lower-calorie, higher vegetable-containing meals。 。。。more

Really like the recipes in this book。 Tried one last night and it was yummy。 Total calories for each recipe are included。 Would have been useful to have carbohydrates listed for people with diabetes though。 Hence 4/5 stars。

Ali

Not quite what i expected, in a disappointed way, from this bookI like Tom and his usually unpretentious recipes, we watched the accompanying TV programme and bought the book, as, for health reasons, I need some food with flavour, as chemotherapy has numbed mine, but agave and yuzo! More ingredients bought just to use cupboard space, for minimal extra calories why not use good organic honey, will try the recipes just to fool friends, glad its only on my kindle。
