I brought the Jamie Oliver - Ministery of Food book today........................ it's fab!

[Charlee]

Kebab mum is in there apparently she has a veggie plot now! oh er!

It really is a good book though some nice recipes in there as always.

There isn't a book to go with the series is there??? How unusual!

Only joking - I like Jamies' books - I shall look out for it

Tesco £10 (rrp £25)

bump

Does it have the chicken bashing recipe in it? The pass it on one?

I've ordered it

Amazon £10

I do like JO. food.

Though his jokey jokey fuck a duck cock er knee act is very wearing.

[I am an akchewall cock er knee]

ohh what type of recipes are in it..only just got back from tescos

Yes it does have the chicken bashing recipe in!! Made it last week - totally scrummy!

I really like the book. Very easy, simple recipes.

I will have to buy it then!

you need a recipe to bash chicken?

ooo sounds interesting!

fio JO always does a book, with every series

tbh, bundle, it's not just JO - all cooks do a book to go with any tv series, I suspect.

are the recipes quick n easy?

what's in it? i assumed all pass it on recipes on website as that's kind of the point isn't it?

but maybe i'm being optimistic. quite fancied the stir fry they did last night.

On his website, there's a recipes section, which says that the following recipes are similar to the ones featured in my upcoming Ministry of Food cookbook (similar to?)

Ah recipes here, I think

"pass it on recipes www.jamiesministryoffood.com/content/jo/recipes.html"

yesss jackie, but people often talk about him like he's some kind of saint. which he's not

True, bundle (sorry - my comment to you sounded a bit harsh, and it wasn't meant that way: I think I actually meant to type 'to be fair', but it came out as tbh, because my fingers just took over).

jackie

i agree, the book is prob part of the deal their agents do
i wonder if jamie is donating the proceeds of his to setting up the ministries of food/training courses? (like i think he did with Fifteen)

my favourite cookery books atm are sarah raven's garden cookbook and tamasin day lewis' kitchen bible - neither v tv-ish

also bought ottolenghi - must try something

he is clearly a workaholic and ruthless in his pursuit of success (and money) but i think he is genuine in his desire to change things for the better. what are other chefs doing? (tho hugh f-w has a conscience i think)
so too complicated and irritating to be a saint - tho i quite like him for that.
and suspect most saints pretty annoying to be around...

Oh LOVE Sarah Raven....When I'm staring at my veg box in dismay I reach for her for inspiration! Kale and Chickpea curry anyone??

Those links dont have the bashing chicken recipe though I really feel like bashing a chicken right now too!

Isn't this the bashing chicken one?

it's on link i posted - parmesan chicken breasts with posh crispy ham.
rather tortured name - bashed chicken better!
