The Greek Islands Cookbook: Simple sun-kissed recipes

Combining the popularity of Mediterranean food with the allure of the Greek islands.

Greek food is one of the most loved and recognised cuisines around the world. Packed with the tastes and memories of sunshine and holidays, it produces big flavours using only the freshest ingredients. It's plentiful yet healthy, with the added delight of conjuring up images of the most magical places in the world – the Greek islands! Eating these dishes at home will instantly transport you to a beach-side taverna enjoying lunch al fresco under an ancient olive tree.

In her new book, Greek chef and food historian Carolina Doriti showcases Mediterranean food with a unique focus on the Greek islands. Alongside stunning photography, her recipes – fluffy pancakes drizzled with honey and sprinkled with walnuts; melon, feta and mint salad; classic roast lamb; artichoke bake; langoustines with courgettes; and many more – will inspire you to recreate some Greek holiday magic in your own kitchen.
