This new book of mine is all about fun, escapist recipes. It"s an adventurous cookbook that embraces the big hitters from the incredible countries I"ve visited recently, as well as completely new things I"ve made up by taking cues from the influences around me. I"ve taken some of the most famous and exciting dishes from these beautiful places and tweaked them so you can recreate the paellas of Spain, the tagines of Morocco and the risottos of Italy easily, and authentically, in your own kitchen.

These days, it can often be cheaper to fly to another country for a weekend than it is to hop on a train to different regions of the UK. I"m not saying we should do that all the time, but every now and then, being brave, escaping the daily routine and filling up on other cultures is a great thing to do. Just get out there and discover the fantastic flavours, people and places that exist just a few hours away from your front door.

So, if you"ve been talking about going somewhere in particular but haven"t got round to booking your ticket, I urge you to go for it! You"ll come back feeling optimistic about life, with a head full of beautiful memories - not to mention ideas for incredible dishes. In the meantime, let this book introduce you to some of the fantastic new recipes and flavours I"ve discovered, and maybe even reintroduce you to recipes you"ve loved and enjoyed on your own holidays, but just never knew how to make! Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Jamie Does... (Jamie Oliver)
